Universal Orlando Day 3:

I'm seeing the difference in the different types of women here. Some are homeschool moms, and they make funny faces when they're tired but you can see they are generally happy, loved, kind, and loving.

Then there are retards who pose like they're celebrities at every single corner of the queue, taking only selfies.

They are the female photography meme. No family, just a friend or a cuck with them.

These are my data logs.

With great power comes great solipsism: the more power you wield over other people, the less real they become to you. To rule is to see people as aggregates, statistical artifacts, as a means to an end. It's how people seem when you're at the bottom of a k-hole.

Multi-streaming and keeping up with live chats coming from many platforms is difficult and distracting. To increase focus, they choose one or few for streaming.

Oh Lord, this thing. The joke in all this is that there may not be the power or the water for it. That much energy is going to require a lot more water to be dissipated, and that means regional evaporation rates are going to go up, which might cause some unexpected forms of weather. I would not trust their water usage claims more than I would trust their employment claims, and the fact the city Council steamrolled the residents says corruption and money

This AI data center will be bigger than 2,000 Walmarts and dump '23 atom bombs worth of energy' into the environment every day — and locals are terrified

The scale sounds almost unreal. The proposed campus reportedly spans around 40,000 acres in Box Elder County, Utah, an area larger than many major cities.

When you suck that much water out of the ground, it virtually always impacts the surrounding aquifers and surface streams. The planners know this but they also know the public doesn't.

Does anyone get the feeling that if the elites decreed that everyone must have their thumbs amputated, Americans would agree that the law makes sense and must be obeyed?

@PNS I don’t get it. Is the argument that the 86% is incorrect because pulling the drivers over was racially motivated or is that an accurate representation of who drives with these conditions? Because if that’s just the demographics of who drives with expired tags/dead tail lights/etc. why should that stop cops from pulling them over? By the same logic, most rapes are committed by men. So we should stop arresting for rape since that disproportionately affects men vs. women?

@radraccoon

Regardless of whatever the numbers are, the reasons for the rules is to keep everyone accountable.

It's now a feature of cities like LA to racialize everything and create confusion from guilt and lack of context.

If everyone with a busted taillight gets a citation or a ticket, regardless of race, then the system is working as intended. Jerking the numbers off to completion, saying race matters, is a deliberate violation of the spirit of law itself.
