I did say acid trip, and I wasn’t being facetious. It’s the Ron Hubbard signature

I’m surprised nobody has mentioned Battlefield Earth (2000).

What started as a scientology passion project for John Travolta turned into the best comedy since blazing saddles imo. I feel like it’s a timey wimey sequel to Idiocracy in spirit. The Travolta cyclo trying to bribe man animals with their favorite food (raw rat), thousand year old military equipment working flawlessly with no maintainence, thinking standard gold ingots and gold ore are basically the same, it’s a whole acid trip condensed into whatever the runtime happens to be. It’s a fuckin riot as long as you go into the experience expecting a comedy.

Im suggesting that police will find the evidence that best fits the narrative they’re trying to portray. If the phone helps their case, sure. If it doesn’t, or contains evidence to the contrary, there’s a decent chance it’ll get “accidentally” misplaced if it’s even collected at all. They’re out to prove your guilt, not suggest your innocence.

Does the defense attorney go out to the scene, conduct interviews, photograph items of interest, or secure custody of any evidence gathered?

It’s the police that decide what is “evidence” and attorneys argue over what they found later. A good attorney might go out and look for some of those things after the fact, but the vast majority will not. You either gather your own evidence or roll the dice with the police actually doing their jobs.

Well no, because all those phone records show is that someone was using your phone at your house during x times to watch videos. There is no verification that it’s actually you. Now, if we actually had face tracking technology to see whether or not you’re actually watching ads, that could change. But as for right now, no.

You misunderstand. Cops in the US have no legal obligation to protect OR serve anyone. Check out the NY subway guy that was attacked with a knife while cops watched from 10 feet away behind bulletproof glass. They literally hid in the conductor booth and watched this guy get stabbed in the fucking face repeatedly.

Not only did the guy survive, he actually overpowered and subdued the attacker. Guy brought a suit against the NYPD for failing to protect him when their motto at the time was literally “Protect and serve”. Long story short, the end result is that he got a real live judge to say out loud that police have no actual duty to protect you when it could endanger themselves. Coupled with your observation on the obesity of American cops, it could be argued that walking down the street to issue a ticket could be lethal for the cop in question and therefore they have no obligation to do it, they simply choose to do it out of spite.

It’s funny to watch Ted Faro play out IRL lmao

Passive speech is the cuck chair in the bedroom of british culture.

You know what, basically any SCP will have varying levels of scifi and fantasy tropes, or sometimes none at all. Bottom line with SCPs is that anything is possible.

Found that little gem a few weeks ago and I believe it fits your ask pretty well 1:1

Honestly almost as good as my other favorite the past few years, https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/63759/super-supportive, but the latter seems to be more active than the former.

Mobius strips actually have two sides. The face and the edge. Both wrap around twice.

Oh good now we can give motion sickness to the handicapped.

Like I’m not gonna say it’s not good for them, but everybody has a limit on how much ripping and tearing they can do before the headache sets in.

Also fuck ID software in perpetuity over the shit they put mick Gordon through.

The problem I’m talking about is when they speed through red lights because they think they have these “special powers” when they law is EXCRUCIATINGLY explicit on exactly when and why cops can sometimes disregard certain legal requirements. That does not mean they can do what they want when they want. That’s exactly the kind of people OP is talking about, and that’s cops. To a fuckin T. Nobody else goes to court, cries ignorance as an excuse, and expects to get away with it.

My real problem is that it works for them. Qualified immunity is a disgrace to law, as is the absolute immunity enjoyed by judges and magistrates. You want to fix law, fix that first.

They REALLY don’t. They have very situational allowances that have become defacto “special powers” thanks to a combination of decades of copaganda and huckster “warrior programs” that teach wannabe bullies that they are the most important of gods special snowflakes whose only responsibility is saving their own ass.

Check out the guy that got stabbed in the face repeatedly on an NY subway while cops watched from 10 feet away, behind a safety door meant to protect the train conductor. Took them to court because their motto was literally “protect and serve” and got a real live judge to say out loud that it wasn’t literal and cops have no duty to actually protect or serve anyone, legally.

It’s funny because the EXACT SAME ARGUMENTS work for cops.

Speeding? You mean traveling in a conveyance.

Assault and battery? You mean protecting and serving.

Deprivation of rights, kidnapping, and false imprisonment? You see, your honor, I didn’t know about any of that stuff so it shouldn’t apply to me.

In conclusion, the only “sovereign citizens” in this country are the bitches in blue.

Not a firefighter, but a welder. I’ve smelled burned me on more than one occasion, and it wasn’t really “horrific” as much as “oh, so that’s what that smells like.” Could be that smelling my own burnt flesh rather than someone else’s made a difference, and that the vast majority of mine were just surface burns, but still. Just smells like burned pork.

Stop shaving.

Haven’t shaved my face in 10 years. Haven’t had a haircut in 11 years. This is the way.

Idk what state your in but landlords withholding deposits usually results in triple damages (eg. You get three times your deposit in damages if the court finds in your favor).

Why would I need to go to a clothing store if I already had clothes?

Buy used. You can’t put tariffs on used goods.
