Yeah that was my first thought after getting over the weirdness of it, "How manageable is this hair going to be after getting home and later as it grows out?"
Just a reminder that everyone is a criminal, but only the out group get the punishments. It's practically impossible these days to do anything without running afoul of some law somewhere, especially when the new fascist regime is turning your old civil rights into new felonies every day. Fed the homeless? Criminal. Shelter an abused person? Trafficking. Give water to a protestor? To an immigrant? Aiding terrorists. Exercising your right to protest? Actual terrorist. Be a librarian? Obscenity. Report facts and statistics? Treason. Give medical care to the wrong person? Felony. Fail to pay debt? (often debt you had no choice about taking on, like debts to courts, medical, and school debts) Criminal. Insist on a separation between church and state? Hate speech. Resist a kidnapping by anonymous men in an anonymous van? Resisting arrest and deported, yes even the legal citizens. These are just the spicy examples. There are plenty of other more mundane crimes that everyone commits every day. The system is too corrupt and complicated to completely avoid breaking the law.
"pretty easy" is a bit of a stretch
Yeah, I'd say they should only have shared it with the news if the news also named and identified them clearly every time the photos are shared. Corruption dies in sunlight. The dangerous ones already know, might as well hang a lantern on any attempts at retaliation.
Why not keep it simpler with one commandment:
Thou shalt not make a machine in the likeness of a human mind.
He can absolutely see through those cards. We trust that he's not cheating the same way we trust anyone isn't cheating any other time. She probably wouldn't actually be that into him (and they would have never been an item) if he wasn't already better than most men at handling and controlling his emotions. (I think Worf was her "Bad Boy" phase because he is so awful at controlling his and just funnels everything into angry sex.) Point being, if anyone can bluff her, it's him. Probabilities are useful, but counting cards in most poker variants isn't that much of an advantage.
Oh yeah, I was just venting. Every place has their quirks. I wish I had your lowkey Fridays.
LOL, not everywhere is like this. Fridays are always the day an emergency project gets dropped in my lap that absolutely must be done before the next Monday because somebody else has a deadline they need to meet (that they've known about for months) and they need our work for a critical part of it, but they never seem to remember until Thursday night.
Obviously Miles Davis is the only answer, but only while watching Elevator to the Gallows because he composed and performed the soundtrack. Otherwise I just listen to the thing I'm watching.
