Documents accuse her of fondling patrons

But in a probable cause affidavit obtained by CNN affiliate WSYX, detectives who were at the Sirens Gentlemen's Club said they observed Daniels remove her top and force patrons' faces into her chest.
"The officers also observed Ms. Clifford fondling the breasts of female patrons," Franklin County Municipal Court records show.

When officers witnessed those activities, three detectives approached the stage. Daniels allegedly made her way toward two detectives, leaned over and grabbed their faces. She shoved each of their faces between her breasts, court documents said.
She fondled a third officer's buttocks and breasts, according to the documents. Daniels was one of three people arrested at the club, but it's unclear who the other two were.

CNN has reached out to the Columbus Police Department for more details.

Under Ohio law, an employee who regularly appears nude or seminude is prohibited from touching patrons on the premises of a sexually oriented business -- unless it's a family member.

So... no lap dances in the state of Ohio?  Unless it's from your sister.

Seriously, the way Netflix tried running cover for Gawker and tying their demise to Drumpf was so freaking pathetic.

Anyway, if the allegation against Avenatti that he embezzled a clients money to pay his own expenses is true, he can kiss that bar card goodbye. Co-mingling funds in the eyes of most character and fitness committees is equatable to murder.

Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy.

hes been unleashing on twitter...

@MichaelAvenatti
Contrary to Nike’s claims yesterday, they have NOT been cooperating with investigators for over a year. Unless you count lying in response to subpoenas and withholding documents as “cooperating.” They are trying to divert attention from their own crimes.

@MichaelAvenatti
Ask DeAndre Ayton and Nike about the cash payments to his mother and others. Nike’s attempt at diversion and cover-up will fail miserably once prosecutors realize they have been played by Nike and their lawyers at Boies. This reaches the highest levels of Nike.

@MichaelAvenatti
Bol Bol and his handlers also received large sums from Nike. The receipts are clear as day. A lot of people at Nike will have to account for their criminal conduct, starting with Carlton DeBose & moving higher up. The diversion charade they orchestrated against me will be exposed

@MichaelAvenatti
The corruption at Nike was rampant with Merl Code and increased with his apprentice DeBose after Code left for Adiddas. Those above DeBose knew all about the payments. Nike conspired to route many of the payments through a convicted felon. Nike then lied to the government.

@MichaelAvenatti
If Nike was cooperating with the government for over a year relating to this scandal (they weren’t - this is a lie), where are the disclosures in their SEC filings? There are none. Wait until the SEC begins their investigation & starts asking why Nike hid this info from investors

He was also flying in restricted airspace, being too close to Trump's Tower. No, I'm not kidding. It was literally made restricted airspace not long after he was sworn in. I didn't know that until yesterday.

DES MOINES, Iowa —
Anheuser-Busch announced Tuesday that it will cut ties with Carson King, the Iowa State fan who has raised over $1 million for the University of Iowa Stead Family Children’s Hospital, over multiple offensive social media posts he made.

King held a press conference Tuesday to discuss a controversial post. He said a reporter with the Des Moines Register called attention to an offensive social media post he made when he was 16 years old.

“Eight years ago, when I was a sophomore in high school, I made some social media posts with my friends that quoted and referenced the show ‘Tosh.0,’ King said. “One of those posts was brought to my attention by a member of the media today.”

Quote
DES MOINES, Iowa -- Aaron Calvin, the former Des Moines Register reporter who discovered racially-insensitive tweets by Carson King, has spoken out for the first time since his firing in an interview with BuzzFeed.

The Des Moines Register has heard from thousands of angry readers over the past few days following an article Calvin wrote that referenced 8-year-old tweets from King. Soon after the article was published Tuesday night, people started circulating offensive tweets written by Calvin on his own Twitter account.

In the interview with BuzzFeed, which was Calvin's former employer from 2013-14, Calvin said he felt is own tweets were "taken out of context" and were used to "wield disingenuous arguments against" him. But he did admit his tweets were "frankly embarrassing" and he wouldn't have published them today.

I thought the beer kid handled the situation perfectly.  If we are forever judged by the stupid things we do as a teenager, we are all screwed. He didn't deny it.  He acknowledged it and showed how he has changed.  That, in conjunction with raising over $1 million for sick children, should allow him to be able to move on with his life.

I guess I sort of understand that the journalist was doing his job, but I bet he regrets how he went about it now.  In retroscpect he probably should have gone to the kid first and gotten his response before putting that story up.

They won't actually pay $8B. I don't know how or why the court arrived at that number, but it does seem excessive. Even still, Johnson and Johnson have COH of a little over $15B. If they whack up prices then their competition will be in a position to undercut them..... oh wait, that's right. US healthcare. Oops.

In other news, Johnson and Johnson have announced the release of their latest wonder drug designed to replace the need for surgical breast enhancements by simply enabling people to grow their own. It's estimated that this market is worth in excess of $8B a year.

Convicted of sex crimes as a man, felon no longer deemed threat because of gender change

The Iowa Attorney General’s Office is no longer seeking the commitment of a former Midwest Christian Services student convicted of myriad sex crimes because the individual now identifies as a woman.

Court records show the state dismissed the application on Jan. 9. Attorney general spokesman Lynn Hicks wouldn’t comment on the reason for the dismissal other than to say “an offender’s hormone levels are an important part of substantiating an offender’s likelihood of recidivism.”

In November, the Storm Lake Times reported that Joseph Matthew Smith, a 23-year-old convicted of molesting a fellow MCS student in 2014, was “undergoing medical treatment that is needed prior to (Smith) potentially undergoing gender reassignment surgery.”

Smith has expressed a preference to identify as Josie, according to court documents.

“We don’t believe we have evidence sufficient to prove Josie Smith has a significant chance of reoffending,” Hicks said late last week.

....

A preliminary report prepared by the state’s expert, Dr. Jeffrey Davis, says Smith molested as many as 15 victims, ranging from ages 1 to 13, before being sentenced to prison in December 2015.

The Brock turners of the world should get called out too. I posted this because I fundamentally disagree that someone is less likely to commit sexual assault because of a sex change. Also, idk if I’m missing something here, but how is anyone with 15 counts getting released anytime soon?

It's tough to parse through all the provocative language in the reports but it looks like he was convicted of two counts of molestation.  And he's being released from a civil commitment unit that near as I can tell houses sex offenders after they have completed their sentence until they are deemed unlikely to repeat the offense. 

This leads to the question "How the freak did a convicted child molester only get a 2-4 year sentence?" which is what people should rightfully be upset about.  However, his release from the CCU seems like common practice.  But "TRANNY'S ARE ABOVE THE LAW" gets more clicks.

I hated country music growing up because my parents would listen to whatever was on the radio, and it was very boring, very predictable, "it all sounds the same". It wasn't until I put a little effort into finding something I liked that I was able to enjoy any of it.

You get bonus points at least for not following up with the usual response to "I don't like country music", which is "but what about Johnny Cash?" I enjoyed the movie but at least 50% of people who say that primarily know him for a song he didn't even write, and no, not even Johnny Cash.

There are bits of country music I hear that I don't object to, although music is often contextual and downtown Toronto which is where I spend 90% of my life doesn't really offer much relevant context for country music. I'm sure there is some that I would like, for example the one that Heismanberg linked, but I don't go places where it would be played and I don't care to make an effort to.

Ladies and gents, Delevan the Country music aficionado. Cuntry is in reference to an old queynte I used to date that had a license plate "cntry Music" freak her and the entire genre. I get subjected to it 2-3 days a week and I hate everything about it. Yes almost every freaking song involves beer, dog, pick up trucks and Mexico. Come at me bro@! Applebees lover of the older lady.

I don't really know how to defend classical music without sounding pretentious, but... dafuq?  Are you sure you just don't like music?

I do agree with you about jazz though.  I find that I have similar problems with jazz and jam bands:

1) I like a melody.
2) Their fans are freaking insufferable.

Pretty sure. Here's the great thing about music, it's OK to not like all sorts of it. For me it's because I grew up with classical and choral music and it's the sound of churches and old people and boredom; it's only when I got old enough to get curious about music and started digging into my parents' collections did I discover that they had all sorts of interesting and cool stuff like Motown and Dylan and The Kinks and Joan Baez and the Stones and Carole King and Simon & Garfunkel and The Byrds, because they never played them.

The hardcore Puritan is more your thing than ours, they mostly fucked off to colonize New England when we wouldn't let them corrupt our new laissez-faire divorce and booze loving Church of England thing with their principles and doctrine and lack of joy. The modern day version of the Church of England is mostly bake sales and coffee mornings and sitting in cold churches grumbling about the brown people running the village shop.

Any effort to find a decent song in that genre is too much, it's like trying to find a decent hair band from the 80's, they all sucked heavy D (don't tell MB lets keep that our little secret.)
That's because hair bands were the pop music of the era. It's like you're taking a bite out of the side of an unpeeled orange and complaining it tastes bad.

Or even before.  Reminds me of an old Lenny Bruce bit:

Jewish guy in 1930's Germany is reading the political tealeaves and so he goes into a travel agent office and explains why he wants to bolt Deutschland.  The travel agent produces a globe and ask the Jewish guy where he'd like to emigrate too.  Jewish guy points to France, travel agent says "no, if history's any indication, Hitler will occupy France in no time."  The Jewish guy points to Italy - travel agent says: "wouldn't go there - Hitler's buddies with Mussolini."   Jewish guy points to Austria, travel agent says "Austria?  That's a no-go, Hungary and Poland as well."  Jewish guy says. "you got another globe?"

Madrid (AFP) - A porn star has been arrested on manslaughter charges following a man's death during a mystic ritual in which he inhaled psychedelic toad venom, Spanish police said Wednesday.

Local press said the ceremony took place in the country residence of Vidal, a media-savvy porn star in his mid-40s whose Twitter feed is full of ads for his 25-centimetre aromatic candles of the male genitalia, available in black, white or cerise.

That doesn't make a lot of sense. You can't really launch a DDOS attack on a country, DDOS is focused on particular resources. If a country had a single service provider then you could but the US has vast distributed networks, you'd have to launch a mindboggling and frankly nigh on impossible amount of attack points to have any kind of significant impact upon the US overall. DDOS attacks happen every day and probably every minute for all sorts of reasons; do they mean that the US government is being hit by a concerted attack?

his point is that he will literally reach for any little thing that in his own mind will convince him that the atrocities being committed against palestinians are just. i have no idea how dumb excrement tweeted by a singular freelance whack job who is also obviously not palestinian has anything to do with justifying the crimes the state of israel is committing against the palestinians, but golden boy mj2sexay has somehow made that connection. okay it makes sense now, they totally deserve it, omg wow okay cool, and anybody showing sympathy towards the palestinians is equivocated to that guy. awesome

this is why i don't post much in threads like these; it's not and hasn't been on just this topic. the last year of events has made that clear. he litters the place with filth and bullshit so extraordinarily dumb that it's quite astonishing to see him double down and defend those takes as if his life depended on it, but he does it time and again.

for example, criticizing an oppressive, apartheid state for the crimes they have been committing against a group of semitic peoples for decades means that in his mind he can make the empty boogey-man claim that you're anti-semitic. he's done it over and over in multiple threads, and this was only one of the age-old 'adages' he used in talking about the situation in a span of two posts in that other thread. he's so convinced of himself. it's tiring, and there is literally nothing to discuss.

that's why it was so funny and, dare i say it, ironic, that he adorned my 'do not speak to me' post as his signature for as long as he did. i don't speak to him because you cannot discuss things with him. that clearly went over his head but he obviously found it amusing enough to place it as his sig, with my name tagging every one of his posts like he was doing something. he didn't get it

You're not interested in a discussion nor have you ever been.

I'm perfectly capable of discussion with those open to it. I'm not capable of discussion with those who continually spew ignorance and strawman others, and then self-project that excrement. That's why this comment is so funny, and dare I say it, ironic. So much of this is you, as evidenced by that first sentence. Yeah dude, I clearly think atrocities against any people are "just' you absolute freaking jerkoff.

As for the only part of this mess of bullshit and ad hominem that's on topic, if you had any ability to comprehend what I actually freaking typed (I mean it's literally there in response to delavan), you'd get my thoughts on the Israeli government. There's principled criticism, and there's regurgitating whatever your fvckin stvpid derriere read on Vice or saw on Desus and Mero. But while you're focused on the "oppresive apartheid state and the crimes they've committed against semetic people for decades" you're not interested in the broader historical context behind it, or how said State is constantly under siege because you don't give a excrement. Anything against the narrative must be ignored or criticized. And as you literally spew rhetoric mirrored by Hamas, you and your ilk had the freaking unmitigated balls to label anyone and everyone who supported the previous President racist, anti-semitic, etc etc etc.

But sure, keep looking at this through the lens of American race relations with the same buzzterms and theory. Like I said a couple days ago, LMAO that you have any moral or intellectual high ground here.

Title: Re: Breaking News
Post by: ons on May 18, 2021, 12:00:16 AM
When my wife got back from Birthright/visiting her sister who was in Rabbinical school in Jerusalem, she decided to start wearing her yarmulke in the mostly white suburbs she teaches in to combat some actual anti-Semitism in her school district: repeated incidents of swastika and anti-Jewish graffiti/vandalism over several years and a high school sports team who had made up Nazi nicknames for each other. As a result I've gotten some weird casual anti-Semitism from neighbors who didn't previously know she was Jewish - a question from a supposedly fully functioning adult about if it's true she always has a bag of gold on her, memorably. Fun stuff, and way, way more anti-Semitic than anything anyone has posted in this thread as far as I can tell.

She also came away from that trip incredibly disillusioned with Israeli propaganda and the casual apartheid ingrained in the country, and started attending organizing meetings for young Jewish people in America attempting to wrestle away the monolithic, bludgeoning voice that AIPAC uses in representing the political interest of Jewish-Americans.

To me, equating strong anti-Israel rhetoric with anti-Semitism has continued to seem like a disingenuous way to dunk on leftist political figures in America rather than an attempt to actually lessen hate. Hamas is dangerous and horrific, but the reason they resonate with so many people in Palestine is because - like most hate groups and terrorists throughout the political spectrum - they frame their rhetoric around some validity. If American politicians use similar language as Hamas does in describing Israel, it does not mean that they thus support violence against Israelis, Jews, or the nation of Israel.

I mean yeah, that'll happen when you have the superior arms and military.

I don't get the point of the graphic, is the iron dome not supposed to work? Is it only equal and righteous if more Jews die?

When my wife got back from Birthright/visiting her sister who was in Rabbinical school in Jerusalem, she decided to start wearing her yarmulke in the mostly white suburbs she teaches in to combat some actual anti-Semitism in her school district: repeated incidents of swastika and anti-Jewish graffiti/vandalism over several years and a high school sports team who had made up Nazi nicknames for each other. As a result I've gotten some weird casual anti-Semitism from neighbors who didn't previously know she was Jewish - a question from a supposedly fully functioning adult about if it's true she always has a bag of gold on her, memorably. Fun stuff, and way, way more anti-Semitic than anything anyone has posted in this thread as far as I can tell.

She also came away from that trip incredibly disillusioned with Israeli propaganda and the casual apartheid ingrained in the country, and started attending organizing meetings for young Jewish people in America attempting to wrestle away the monolithic, bludgeoning voice that AIPAC uses in representing the political interest of Jewish-Americans.

To me, equating strong anti-Israel rhetoric with anti-Semitism has continued to seem like a disingenuous way to dunk on leftist political figures in America rather than an attempt to actually lessen hate. Hamas is dangerous and horrific, but the reason they resonate with so many people in Palestine is because - like most hate groups and terrorists throughout the political spectrum - they frame their rhetoric around some validity. If American politicians use similar language as Hamas does in describing Israel, it does not mean that they thus support violence against Israelis, Jews, or the nation of Israel.

I'd agree with this if said leftist political figures didn't spew rhetoric that aligned so well with actual anti-semites, and that's without getting into the absurd lack of standards that goes into casually defending if not outright parroting said rhetoric (Iata).

The high rate of casualties among the Palestinian civilians, especially the children, isn't a function of military superiority, it's a function of callousness and disregard for human life.

The US refusing to let any declaration against the Israeli government go through the UN is due to the fact that the Isrealis are playing by the rules Obama established during his admin where the US drone strikes a high value asset in a heavy civilian population and then shrugs and says, "Oops! We were aiming for the bad guy." I'm not sure if it's Biden trying to protect his buddy's legacy, trying to make sure that we still have the option to act this way down the road, or both.

It's a function of a terrorist group firing rockets into civilian lands indiscriminately killing whoever.

But yes, tell me more about how the Israeli's have no value for human life as they literally give people within a target time to evacuate.

Anyway, back on the topic of the poor AP, as if it hasn't been well documented for some time that they've been actually running PR for Hamas; https://www.theatlantic.com/international/archive/2014/11/how-the-media-makes-the-israel-story/383262/

You're not interested in a discussion nor have you ever been.

I'm perfectly capable of discussion with those open to it. I'm not capable of discussion with those who continually spew ignorance and strawman others, and then self-project that excrement. That's why this comment is so funny, and dare I say it, ironic. So much of this is you, as evidenced by that first sentence. Yeah dude, I clearly think atrocities against any people are "just' you absolute freaking jerkoff.

As for the only part of this mess of bullshit and ad hominem that's on topic, if you had any ability to comprehend what I actually freaking typed

 (I mean it's literally there in response to delavan),

you'd get my thoughts on the Israeli government. There's principled criticism, and there's regurgitating whatever your fvckin stvpid derriere read on Vice or saw on Desus and Mero.

First off that was in another thread ('Prez Joe Biden').  Further your contention that the settlers had legal grounds to that land was based on a court ruling.  Which court was that?  Israeli?  Palestinian? (honest question).

 The fact remains that Palestinian families were evicted in East Jerusalem not to mention the Israeli police's heavy-handed clashing with Palestinians near the city’s Al-Aqsa Mosque, Islam’s third holiest site, during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan.  Nuance Bibi ya freakin' crook, nuance.

Israel claims all of Jerusalem as its capital, a status not generally recognized internationally. Palestinians want East Jerusalem - captured by Israel in the 1967 Arab-Israeli war - as the capital of a future state. 

The Land o' Milk & Honey has a right to defend itself yet at the same time they may want to take a second look at what really constitutes their borders.  The fact that Hamas is crushing them in the court of public opinion speaks for itself.  Some Jews are even running with "not in my name."   Conversely, 'Israeli-sympatico' on the Palestinian side?  You've a better chance of seeing god.

Del, I call out Bibi for his complicity and hand in this situation in my response in the other thread. Idk how else to to properly criticize the Israeli government in an even handed manner without resorting to "freak IsRaEl."

Re:  Israeli-sympatico;'s on the Palestinian side, I wholeheartedly recommend the work of Bassem Eid. I think he's covered this in a very fair and even handed manner, providing said perspective from a Palestinian who is pro-Israeli. At the same time, even stories that should be highlighted, such as Dr. Mohammed Awad saving the life of a jewish man from a lynch mob, or Yigal Yehoshua's unfortunate death at the hands of another angry mob having at least some semblance of a silver lining considering his kdiney will be donated to a sick Arab woman in need are routinely ignored and minimized, to what end and for what purpose I have absolutely no idea.


The Court of Public Opinion as captured by twitter is usually indicative of nothing. Just because one side has been considerably more vocal and quick to spread absolute nonsense (and this unholy alliance between twitter blue hairs and Adam Bates-style lolbertarians is what it is), doesn't mean it carries weight. Half the country isn't accurately represented anyway except of course if you count FOX and publications like Nat Review as accurate representation.

Every single expansion of Israeli borders came as the result of a response to wars of aggression. They haven't even occupied Gaza in fifteen years, and through self-preservation the blockade exists (with the approval by the way of Egpyt and the PLO themselves).

"The assailants claimed to be agents with the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration, according to videos taken by people in the area of the president’s home. Moďse, 53, lives in Pelerin 5, a neighborhood just above the hills in the capital.

On the videos, someone with an American accent is heard saying in English over a megaphone, “DEA operation. Everybody stand down. DEA operation. Everybody back up, stand down.”

Sources said the assailants, one of whom spoke in English with an American accent, were not with the DEA.

interim prime minister, Claude Joseph, said in a statement.

“A group of unidentified individuals, some of them speaking Spanish, attacked the private residence of the president of the republic and thus fatally wounded the head of state,” the prime minister said, but there was little solid information about who might have carried out the assassination.

https://time.com/5434659/halloween-pagan-origins-in-samhain/

That's a bad take for a few reasons:

most obviously, halloween in school is definitely the absolute lamest, non-subversive, officially antiseptic, Disneyfied version of the holiday you will ever find. Getting halloween out of schools does way more to keep it "gritty" than throwing a tantrum about an elementary school getting rid of its freaking Pumpkin Parade.

second most obviously, schools have been 'cancelling' costumes/halloween for decades for dozens of reasons. Christians worried about paganism, teachers not wanting distractions, income inequality/pressure to have expensive costumes, it just being a pain in the derriere, harder to enforce dress codes, all of this happens all the time and it is not national-news worthy and hasn't been for years. blaming it on wokism is just falling for people using culture war clickbait to monetize outrage.

Third most obviously, they're literally right.

That's a bad take for a few reasons:

most obviously, halloween in school is definitely the absolute lamest, non-subversive, officially antiseptic, Disneyfied version of the holiday you will ever find. Getting halloween out of schools does way more to keep it "gritty" than throwing a tantrum about an elementary school getting rid of its freaking Pumpkin Parade.

second most obviously, schools have been 'cancelling' costumes/halloween for decades for dozens of reasons. Christians worried about paganism, teachers not wanting distractions, income inequality/pressure to have expensive costumes, it just being a pain in the derriere, harder to enforce dress codes, all of this happens all the time and it is not national-news worthy and hasn't been for years. blaming it on wokism is just falling for people using culture war clickbait to monetize outrage.

Third most obviously, they're literally right. If a school is noticing a persistent demographic of students is opting out of a superfluous celebratory event, changing it so that it better suits the needs of all students (like getting rid of costumes) is literally the school administration's job. Its also why my elementary school shut down costumes in the 90s when we had seventh day adventists complaining. Not news then, not news now.

First off 'most obviously' I dig the prig  : )

The cynical assumption that wokeism here is driving some cultural war clickbait again was and is not the point.  For starters you can't arbitrarily assign or assume the motives of others just because their take on something doesn't align with yours, i.e. disagree all you like but don't summarily dismiss it with a self-serving narrative.

second most obvious (in red), re: income equality: here's where the 'creativity' part comes in.  A very creative costume can be put together for zilch.  Income inequality where it relates to Halloween?  Socio-eco-political hoo-ha.   Give me a discarded swath from a screen door and a roll of aluminum foil and I'll whip up a first-class hash pipe of a costume (admittedly maybe not appropriate for junior but you get the $-prudent picture). 

Third most obvious (sniff...sniff...) : )  you disdainfully look down at Halloween as something venial yet on the other hand your school felt compelled to cave into a religious organization that viewed it as some sort of  threat to their sensibilities (seven day adventists)?   A basic constitutional tenet regarding separation of church and state couldn't stand on its own because of exactly what?  So Halloween does not (ever) contain a kernel of subversiveness?  Sounded like subversiveness was at play on both sides of the school/7th day adv. aisle.   

Agree to disagree and imho you do not 'get' Halloween....it's way beyond candy corn in a bag....

Yes, no one should ever have any festivals or hold any events if some people don't celebrate something.

I read that he's divorced, but who knows how long this relationship went back. If he cheated on his wife, he's a piece of excrement, I don't care what kind of derriere he's pulling down.  The gnome thing is very accurate.  He has a weird head.  Very Staffordish.

According to all the financial analyst it's an offer thst no way could the Twitter board accept and they'd (the analyst) consider it financially irresponsible to do so.

I don't know the particular logistics but I think the fact that while Musk is offering them a markup, the stock price was 70 something dollars not too long ago (ie way more than Musk offering).

Plus it also sounds like Musk violated the law by not disclosing when he owned a certain percentage of Twitters stock in a timely manner.

This is where this should have been:

It's not good but as per usual, people on the internet are regurgitating stuff that sounds scary but actually isn't necessarily relevant.

"Chronic exposure causes all these terrible things to happen!" Well, yes, but "chronic" means persistent and long term. The point of burning it off is to ensure that there is nothing left to be chronically exposed to.

"But burning it creates hydrogen chloride which is what makes hydrochloric acid!" Yes it does, but then so do lots of things. Your stomach, for example. I'm not smart enough to know what the impact of lots of hydrogen chloride in the atmosphere is but I do remember from school that adding hydrochloric acid to water causes the acid molecules to break up and give off hydrogen.

I can well believe that lots of hydrogen chloride being added to the soil is probably not a good thing, but Twitter doesn't seem to be very interested in providing answers preferring instead to compare a chemical spill to Chernobyl. Because that's helpful.

Not sure. I was solely referring to the fact that Twitter, and specifically the tweets being linked, were calling it things like "America's Chernobyl". The absolutely obsession with not waiting for actual facts and information before making a determination on things is a manifestation of the internet's collective stupidity - don't be right, don't be well considered, be first and be extreme. No need for facts, just fill in the blanks with whatever tenuous imaginary storyline you can come up with, the more eyecatching the better.

“Based on the current way things are going, the best advice I would give to white people is to get the hell away from Black people. Just get the freak away,” Adams said. “Wherever you have to go, just get away. Because there’s no fixing this. This can’t be fixed. So I don’t think it makes any sense as a white citizen of America to try to help Black citizens anymore. It doesn’t make sense. There’s no longer a rational impulse. So I’m going to back off on being helpful to Black America because it doesn’t seem like it pays off.”

Good for Taco Bell; ‘Taco Tuesday’ is a common phrase and should be beyond the scope of copyright.

Further, the cracker who founded Taco John’s should’ve named it Taco Juan’s (much like Papa Giovanni’s).

Not sure how many cars went in, but it was probably very fortunate that this happened in the middle of the night and not during the day, say rush hour.

Maybe if it was the middle of the day the freaking idiot behind the steering wheel might have seen the massive brick and steel structure in front of him.

From what I've read it may have been a mechanical problem.  Lost propulsion.

Personally, I suspect it was an elderly asian lady driving it.

Reuters:

Quote
The ship "lost propulsion" as it was leaving port, and crew on board notified Maryland officials they had lost control of the vessel, ABC News reported, citing an unclassified U.S. intelligence report.

I couldn't watch the video again, but I read that on video it looks like power visibly went out twice on the ship before it collided. Terrible.

Or maybe a designated harbor pilot lost juice ⚡️⚡️
fwiw, this same ship had an ‘infrastructure accident’ in Antwerp back in 2016.

Looks like loss of power and propulsion.  Or Boeing’s now in the shipbuilding business.

Looks like the ship managed to put out a mayday before the collision. That allowed police to stop traffic onto the bridge. Sadly, it looks like there were still 6 workers on the bridge at the time of the collapse. Just terrible.
