So long, and thanks for all the gay bowsers

Took a few passes but still couldn't get this under the character limit

I hate when I, a normal human, come across a tortoise while walking through the desert and flip it on its back, for reasons I cannot articulate

I'm not one of those guys who thinks he could beat a grizzly bear or a gorilla in a fight. I recognize I would need to form strategic alliance with these beasts against our mutual foes: obnoxious gym bros and vulnerable children

I'd go further: even if the music is completely inconsequential to the work, requiring a critic to remove it is a barrier to publishing that criticism and contrary to the entire purpose of fair use/fair dealing exceptions in IP law, which are grounded in the right to free speech/free expression

Jack Saint@lackingsaint.bsky.social

as a result of this weird copyright situation I've really wrestled with if it's a reasonable expectation for critics to remove music if they're citing a specific scene from a movie and no, no I actually think the music is fundamental to the context of the art being critiqued honestly

KEEP HONKING I'm watching acclaimed Canadian sci-fi series ORPHAN BLACK on the in-dash display

I'm also a criminal defence lawyer, and I think this statement is both wrong & betrays a condescending attitude towards one's clients. Plenty of clients tell me they didn't do it, but obviously that's not enough on its own unless there's compelling direct evidence...

Polis have teams who should know better, but most accused are normal ppl in extremely stressful situations governed by arcane procedure. Any halfway decent and sympathetic lawyer should be able to recognize that this rationalization is coping, not excuse-making, and is completely unrelated to guilt

Lawyers (myself included) are insufferable people. But we can be a bit less insufferable if we admit our only real skills over the average person are a slightly better grasp of rhetoric & knowing the specific buttons to press when navigating the legal system. Hardly justifies being so judgmental!

So people instinctively turn to rationalization & argument. The problem, and the reason it might make the accused "seem" guilty, is that they are don't know how one needs to rationalize/argue in the specific way in court. So the arguments come off as weak or flimsy...

(Pausing to concede that the video OP is commenting on def makes guy look scummy as hell. That's fine, the court of public opinion does and should work on a different standard than the courts. Even so, ignorance re: dynamics in abusive relationships isn't evidence a particular assault occurred)

What's up chat there's a malaise deep inside me

Finally playing Resident Evil Requiem, and I'm going to post my thoughts about it (until I get bored). First concern: why didn't the FBI give Grace a gun? Doesn't really seem fair that she had to buy her own

Every season of love island should have one joke character. Like a way older married woman, or an aro furry, etc

I'm walking around the mall and the phrase "squishmellow-based economy" keeps bouncing around inside my skull

Banking apps shouldn't force you to use two-factor authentication unless you have a minimum amount of money in your account and whatever that number is I almost certainly have less than it

Ah great, there's a freakin' smile monster in this hospital

Gameplay is great so far, but too many interuptions in play from cuts scenes/character switching. Hopefully that mellows out as I get further into the game. I should mention here that people who play Resident Evil "for the story" should be forced to live in big barn somewhere

I love being the gruff & stoic leader to a clan of five bumbling gargoyles, but I hate when we're cursed to stone slumber until our castle rises above the sky. Anyway, guess what I've been binging

LT-Gov has got to be the sweetest gig in Canadian politics. Six figures for no real work, with none of the visibility or expectations of the GG or even a senator. Ample opportunity to say "lef-tenant" in conversation. It's the dream

Resident Evil is one of my favourite game series of all time. I'm currently grinding my way through the final challenges in the remake of 4 before starting Requiem. I truly believe that all RE fans need to be put down
