This is standard. I know of a minor who was groomed, and he was told repeatedly that he could be charged with creating child pornography. Don't let the Columbus PD fool you: this is how they all behave.

Why does Sergeant Benton have so much hair, and why is he out of uniform? The Brigadier will NOT be pleased.

Space programs definitely do science and stuff. All I meant to say was that Venus might not be the lowest hanging fruit for scientific discovery. It's really expensive to go there. Doesn't mean we shouldn't.
I see now how my post could read as an elon-fanboi type "colonize all the things" and that was not what I intended. I do think Atmospheric sensor clusters on Venus would be pretty awesome. It could give us an interesting set of insights into a wildly different environment.

Not much to gain by going there. Wildly corrosive, too hot, too hard to terraform with present tech.

I'm guessing the switch they're discussing affects the tendency of the body to store excess energy instead of just passing it thru. That is: if you don't pack it on, you push it out. If you know what I mean...

Chiropractors.

 

Anyone else hear three distinct gunshots in SLP just west of 100? Not fireworks, I heard the supersonic crack of the bullets after the initial report. Just after dark. No sirens or anything, maybe ten, ten thirty pm? Sounded like maybe a 9mm. I have no idea how far the sound would have carried, but I don't think it could have been too far from the high school or I wouldn't have heard it.

Everyone needs to watch this video -- it's long, but she did a great job of spelling out the unavoidably insidious nature of Replika and.... Some other things.

Nice try, FBI
