    I highly doubt there haven't been at least yearly shooting incidents in your immediate vicinity if you just Google it. It's very easy to miss if it's someone dicking around with a gun or a fight that doesn't end with someone dying, since it doesn't make headlines for long. In my estimation, the world has always been this way, it's actually getting less and less dangerous all the time, statistically. 

    Also, lol @ Clinton stans always being petty past-their-prime dudes (save perhaps for the chickhawks).

    Heh, "chickhawks". Haven't heard that one before, but I like it and believe I shall start using it.

    And yeah, you could be right about shootings. Even decades ago if I'm actually right about it being rare back then, I'm sure at least one person per year got killed.

    ^^ I kinda wonder how many of those gunshots at night within audible distance resulted in someone getting injured or dying.

    So I decided to give a little place called "Heapers' Hangout" a try.

    Howevs (that's a word I've only ever seen used in one Empowered story and nowhere else, but I wanted to type it just now), you can't just register and log right in anymore. You need an invitation code.

    To get the invitation code you need to e-mail asking for one.

    It's been about a day since I did that, and no response. Is that normal?

    EDIT: Oh cool, I just got a thing saying I'm in. Never mind.

    Fighteer not immediately being shown the door has, by far, been the biggest disappointment of TVT's new administration.

    ^ I thought at this point he was the administration.

    I would say that I have been revisiting Aoi Eir's albums that you introduced me to, but then all you'd do is complain that I haven't picked up the latest ones... :P

    Looks like we're really doing this left-libertarian thang. On the bright side, the concepts of implicit bias and filter bubbles will now be introduced to an audience of old people who will instead focus on how the university system has turned me into a delusional idiot cloistered from hardship on the taxpayer's dime (which is true in my case, but still). Will provide translation on request.

    Post-Mortem of Panama in the America Cup Centennial: It was obvious we were going to lose to Argentina, but Chile, goddamn, I feel bad. Also, our ex-president went to our matches, the currently requested for wire-tapping one. Stupid shit. Why can't he be taken back to face justice yet, is beyond me.

    Is Brazilian soccer unusually sucking lately or is it just my perceptions?

    The proper answer is decline.

    Ahh, getting throttled to 128kbps on my phone finally makes the images thread take a lot longer to load. Also reminds me of how the internet shoukd stop being bandwidth-wasteful in general. lol @ being spoiled the past few years



    I used up all my higher-speed data for the month and my phone plan is such that the data speed is throttled after that.



    I don't actually mind that much. I do very little on my phone that requires higher-speed data. The only reason this happened now is because I spent a few days wasting most of my high-speed data allocation on watching YouTube reuploads of Rescue 911. Which is of course totally worth it because it's Rescue 911.



    Funniest thing is, I'm pretty sure 4G LTE high-speed mobile data is actually faster than my own home internet service.

    Why yes, you should certainly let your dog roam freely next to a railroad. You have a gate on your fence, use it. We have enough suicidees causing train delays without doge pancakes adding to the pile.

    I had this livid (Freudian?) nightmare where a bunch of my professors (some real) hated my guts for some reason, I couldn't figure why and they wouldn't tell me, and seeked to humiliate me in front of class, asking me to answer stuff on the blackboard with a thin chalk and worn out eraser, or asking personal questions as if they were related to class, all completely realistic. I woke up all sweaty.

    I've just read that with UK leaving the EU, English may cease to be an official EU language. We'll have to see if Ireland and Malta (which both have English as a second official language internally) have any opinion on what to do with it.

    Also, England just Brexitted itself from Euro footy championships.

    I just learned that you can close the huge blue "microsoft blocks the site's e-mails" message in the main page, and now it feels off.

    Last Monday, I noticed a new street sign had gone up in my neighborhood...but with a typo:

    See, "Chaple" isn't a word. It's supposed to say "Chapel", like all the other signs do. For instance, this one from when the street first opened in the 1990s:

    I noticed the misspelling on Monday. I contacted 311 about it on Wednesday, and to my surprise...by Friday, it was fixed!

    If I'd known the city responded this quickly to complaints about traffic signs, I would have started bugging them years ago! :P

    I just realized to open a page in a new tab rather than right-clicking a link then left-clicking the Open Link in New Tab you can use two right-clicks instead. For some reason I feel this is going to make browsing much more comfortable.
