I’m sorry, I’ve just got to stop and laugh at Yellow Diamond’s skewed perception.
THIS is too far?
This is too far.
Like, it REALLY hasn’t set in for the Diamonds that Pink was Rose Quartz yet.
Everything that Rose Quartz did: started a civil war for the freedom of her planet, removed a Diamond from power and inadvertently ending the first Era, spread a message of love and individuality that has never and will never be fully eradicated from Homeworld itself. That was all Pink.
But yeah.
Being rambunctious at a party is COMPLETELY beyond the pale.
hey guys, just got back from my very long journey of re-writing history to put us on a timeline where harry potter doesn’t exist! no need to thank me, but don’t worry, it’s gone now.
Neopets was fun until the Scientologists took over.
Again, Neopets was never designed or managed or run by scientologists.
The people who owned/financed the website were scientologists, which wasn’t immediately known by The Neopets Team, who later made sure not an ounce of the ideals made it onto the site.
From an AMA with one of the original Neopets co-creators:
“We found out about it about 6 months after we started working there and started googling all the employees and they were all Scientologists,” Powell, who left the company alongside Williams shortly after Viacom took over because of creative differences, explained. “It was weird, we just didn’t mention it until they hired this lady who wanted to bring Scientology onto the site. We fought that as hard as we could and they got rid of her.” Williams likewise stated in her AMA: “At one time there was some talk about putting Scientology education on the site, but we killed that idea pretty sharpish. Adam and I made sure that it never made its way onto anything site related. Religion and politics were two big no nos for us as far as site content went. Can’t say the discussions we had to keep it that way were [sic] much fun though!”
People love being like “omg neopets was scientology propaganda!!!” But rest assured it was just a fun site that people worked really hard on!
It was the sale to Viacom that really began its end.
*shrug* whenever neocash started and getting banned for talking about your page design elements abutting… because you said butt.
Aaaaand they will disbar a lawyer QUICK but these cops get paid vacation.
All I’m saying is you need a master’s to be a social worker, but you can be a cop with a high school diploma. Like, on what fucking planet do that make sense?
Cops don’t have to know the law.
There was a supreme court decision recently that a cop is not falsely detaining someone if they’re doing something the cop reasonably believes is against the law, even if it’s actually legal. I think the specific case was about someone driving with a broken taillight in a state where a car is street-legal so long as at least one of its taillights works.
Meanwhile, as a civilian, ignorance of the law is not a defense.
Cops are not required to know the laws they enforce. You are required to know every law you might conceivably break. But then, of course, if you backtalk a cop because you have better knowledge of the law than they do, and they respond violently, good luck winning that.
“Oh sweet, poetic justice. Kyrsten Sinema, the first openly bisexual Senator in U.S. history, has been sworn into office using a law book instead of a bible by Mike Pence today. #116thCongress #swearinginday”
