mircea_popescu: but anyway, teh 100% anal child. "circumstances" forced it to not pay rent, and evil people forced him to make stories for attention about making stories for attention.
mircea_popescu: just talk to some supposedly ignorant, unintelligent and unskilled ghetto dwellers on the topic of "getting prescriptions", see knowledge, cleverness and skill unmatched.
mircea_popescu: trinque well obviously. once the "to whoever according to his needs" becomes the payoff, needs become competitive.

brendafdez: think of the children
danielpbarron: My family is unaware that I don't share their religious views, unaware that I am bisexual and that I have friends of all ethnicities, religious views, genders and sexual orientations. If they knew any of this, my life would be at risk.

trinque: kakobrekla: please autovoice the deedbot- if you wouldn't mind
trinque: doesn't really bother me to not have a mask, as the firewall on the thing doesn't have open ports

asciilifeform: damn, the sheer perversity of this plays with the brain
asciilifeform: quite possibly this was the juridicial basis for the fella sitting in a ca jail for a us violation
nubbins`: and what the UN says, goes!
asciilifeform: and hence the pretenses of differing laws are just that
asciilifeform: nubbins` et al: of course this is a trick question, because canada (like the rest of the 'civilized' - and even the orcish - world) is signatory to the nacro convention
nubbins`: none of these sound great ;/
asciilifeform: nubbins`: this is like /you/ doing time in /iran/ for blasphemy against the prophet because you mailed an iranian a copy of hebdo << nah that would be like me doing time in local state pen for mailing hebdo to teheran
mircea_popescu: turns out... a socailist too ?!
mircea_popescu: r his death: "Neville was a Radical to the end of his days. It makes my blood boil when I see his ‘Tory’ and ‘Reactionary’ outlook taken as a matter of course because the Whirligig of Politics made him leader of the Tory party."
mircea_popescu: What a Chamberlain government would have done had there been no war in 1939 will never be known, but an election was due in 1940, and the manifesto proposals outlined by the Conservative Research Department embraced family allowances and the inclusion of insured persons' dependants in health cover—about half the advances usually attributed to Beveridge. As Lady Cecily Debenham wrote to Chamberlain's widow, Anne, afte
mircea_popescu: "No doubt the Jews aren't a lovable people; I don't care about them myself; but that is not sufficient to explain the Pogrom."
