If I’m ever attacked without prior involvement with my attacker the death match has just started.

Without prior involvement I have zero ways of knowing why I’m being subjected to violence, and my safest assumption is that they mean to kill me.

Therefore my entire life is now being measured in seconds. I will do whatever it takes to eliminate the threat and remove that counter from my existence.

I’m thinking it was Oumuamua in 2017. It actually hit us, destroyed the planet, and we’ve been in hell ever since. Nicely coincides with Trump 1.0 because why the fuck not.

Last heard (a few months ago) the cost is in storage. The protocol isn’t too complicated now, but it generates a shit ton of data, and IIRC you need a minimum of 3 copies.

It’s easier to remove people from the law than to remove law from the people!

After all Auschwitz was a ‘stateless’ prison for Germany in Poland.

As a kid we went to the University of Michigan hospital every six months for my brother.

One visit we go to the cafeteria for lunch as usual, and there were signs everywhere warning that microwave ovens were in use!

My mom asked one of the staffers what the signs were for and she told us that it turns out these new devices could affect pacemakers in a real bad way.

“We found out the hard way when a few patients went into cardiac arrest right here in the cafeteria! Took them awhile to connect the dots…”

“Oh my god,” my mom said! “Did you lose anyone?”

“Oh no honey…there ain’t no better place to have one of those than in a hospital!”

It would be years before we got one at home, and nobody we knew had a pacemaker.
