Iran had a fatwa against nuclear arms put in place by the leader the US had killed. Who’s to know what succession feels about that now.

Later, we’ll find out the whole identifying part is a bit glossed over, and it’s really about using the AI as a rubber stamping plausible deniability shield to commit whatever atrocity you feel like.

When did you last disinfect your phone?

Kushner took a 2 billion dollar bribe from the Saudis and Trump said it was fine since he wouldn’t be in his admin in his second term.

Kushner was one of the people Trump had negotiating with Iran right up to the breakout of the war.

UAE also forked over another 2 billi in crypto to WLF, which the Trump family hold major stakes in. And that’s on top of the 180 million they put into WLF around the 2nd inauguration.

He wants you to chase him

the fuck did you just call me?

And too frequently the person not getting it is the person who thinks they’re great at dark humor.

I think this is less about the humor, and more about the superstition about speaking something into reality.

Here’s a story for you. My grandmother never struck me as on overly superstitious person. But she was very serious when she told me that one day she had a friend over eating in her kitchen when a blackbird flew in through the window. Her friend told her that it was a really bad omen, specifically that it was a harbinger of death. The next day my grandmother’s first born was killed in a hit and run.

She couldn’t get over why her friend would even say that out loud. Not really because she thought her friend was clairvoyant but because it poisoned their relationship. She’s got one of the most negative moments in her life made even worse because of a callous prediction a friend made that now tolls like a bell any time her son comes to mind.

There are some forms of negativity that are better off left unsaid. You saying it isn’t going to burn down the house. But one day you might wish you hadn’t said it.

In the end, are you any less frugal than your parents? When confronted with an issue, all you could afford was a mean spirited “joke” that isn’t funny. People are accepting of dark humor if it actually is humorous.

Prominent enough that as a kid I thought Obi had just been shrunk and they just left him there.

I worked around 18 wheelers for awhile. Eventually you develop a sense for who is going to be a problem driver before they’ve even fully pulled onto the lot.

Obvious signs are the company they drive for. Some companies stress hiring competent drivers with good track records, others get theirs by training people with zero record. Condition of the tractor is another easy tell. Some states generally seemed to send worse drivers as well, for example we got a lot of bad drivers from IL.

And then you’ve got how they pull inside in the first place. Missing the turn in, not a big deal. But missing the turn in when they were going 40mph? Did they fly or creep through the gates? Either side of the spectrum is a worry. Once through the gate were they able to follow the preponderance of signage and context clues to direct them where to go? How did they brake as they came to a stop? Speaking of brakes, do you smell theirs? Not a great sign if you do. Did you have to tell them to engage their air brakes?

Then you’ve got the driver. Young driver? Not a good sign. Are they in a hurry or agitated in some way? Do they have a pet jumping all over their lap as they check in or a spouse/co driver they’re fighting with? Music absolutely blasting to keep them awake? Is the driver acting like this is all new to them? How good is their english and are they going to be able to follow simple directions?

And then you’ve got how they actually approach their dock. Wasn’t a large lot, so some drivers before they’ve even started to back up have already put themselves in an unwinnable position just by the way they approached the dock. Did they decide to circle round the lot in a weird way? If they’re having to back up at an angle did they choose the correct way, or are they trying it blind side for zero reason?

If a driver started checking a few too many of those boxes, I knew they were going to do their best to hit something. You’d tell these drivers to open their windows, literally follow you around the lot and hand hold them as they backed up, and they’d still manage to hit something.

Because of how prominent the Honey I Shrunk The Kids stuff was at the time, as a kid I thought Obi had just been shrunk and they just left him there.

Canon in my mind

I’d argue barbeque. Cultures the world over have some form of cooking things slow, frequently underground to break down tougher foods.

Deep frying is a result of excess while some form of barbeque would have been a very logical step for anyone cooking on coals.
