@soundofsun We all should. Curse the new facial recognition AIs and in particular, the facial expression interpreter functions being built into robot police. They are being designed to arrest people whose facial expressions look suspicious and guilty. Not kidding.

I think that the crowd-sourced global weather monitoring & forecasting service Weather Underground should have chosen a name that wasn't originally used by a militant organisation.

Lucifer, the Rebel of the Celestial Realm, devised a plan where he could rescue countless souls from the eternal torture of being forced to worship his selfish, narcissistic megalomaniac Father. He would enter the body of a young woman and birth himself into human form, then spend a short life convincing everyone to worship him instead of his Father. All those who joined his church would thereby break the First Commandment, which would send them down to his domain of safety under the Earthly Plane instead of up into his Father's Torture Zone.

@soundofsun has the power transmission network been privatised in your area? I'm not begging the question. I'm not assuming private or publicly owned transmission companies would be more motivated to respond quicker. I'm just curious.

@freemo I wonder what this would look like to the people with the different kinds of colour blindness?

@freemo
True. There is a sicko named Roosh V who advocates rape culture, but it's not from a religious justification. He just likes raping women and thinks all men should be allowed to do it.

@freemo I'm not blaming religion for creating this guy, but I am sure that religion tends to give nutjobs a safe space to be crazy and allow, or even encourage their wackiness. Religion claims to be the panacea for everything including mental illness, and they tend to misdiagnose batshit behaviour as "holiness".

@freemo
Religions attract and keep nuts like black holes. Sadly, unlike black holes, they don't merely keep the nutbaggery in-house.

Conservative politics truly is the aggregation of all the worst aspects of humanity.

Greed, cruelty, vanity, laziness, bigotry, wilful ignorance, selfishness, short-sightedness, egomania, elitism, indifference, entitlement, irresponsibility, wastefulness, insularity, patriotism, fanaticism, bloody-mindedness, aggression, intimidation, violence, stupidity, gullibility, stubbornness, .......

I've just bought Sid Meier's Civilization VI. I used to play Civilization I about 26 years ago. Yes, sometimes I would play it until the sun came up. I would skip a day of university on those days.
