I remember when there was a discussion on Twitter about Shein's manufacturing practices and some apologists invented all sorts of fantastical machinery and technology to avoid facing the more horrifying truth. Reminds me of this comedian's joke.

Phone was in sleep mode and went to VM (he left his own cell so I could call back, another odd misjudgment). So at least he didn't get to talk to panicked 3am me.

But...every step on the decision tree says "send a fucking email" in this case. There's no version where him calling has a good outcome.

There was also BZ, a *much more powerful* hallucinogen than LSD, which they fielded in Europe until 1969. The account I heard is that the USA withdrew it in a hurry when they learned how the USSR secured battlefield nukes—not with permissive action locks, but with KGB guards.

If *any* dependent receives *any* form of social protection at any point, you lose your legal status, as drafted. It is sloppy, mad & ludicrously extreme all at once
