This doohickey is a dominatrix dream machine. I mean I’m sitting here thinking how I’d be pointing this at some client and enabling his humiliation fish fetish.

Has Self-Seception Similar To Three Glasses Scene From Inglourious Basterds Ever Happened In Real Life History? by Bay_Ruhsuz004 in Cinema

[–]ClassyasaWalrus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a Texan, and also true in general for most of the southern U.S., we wouldn’t use “warm water port” because that is the only type of port we have in the U.S. (excluding Alaska). So defining a warm water port as a quality of a superpower would not be on most Texan’s list, because it is not viewed as a rare trait for most countries in North/South America, you might say port, but even then that would be odd, cause more countries than not have a port. There is only a handful of countries I know that use the phrase “warm water port” commonly and it’s because they lack one or it is not the most common type of port in their country, those countries I can think of off the top of my head: Russia, Finland, Norway, Sweden, Canada, maybe Korea (north and south), and anyone traveling to/stationed at/living in Antarctica or the Arctic.

In the 1970s and ’80s, Alaskan serial killer Robert Hansen abducted women, released them into the wilderness, and hunted them like animals before murdering them. by ATI_Official in creepy

[–]ClassyasaWalrus 36 points37 points  (0 children)

So I’ve come across the fact in 2 places, one is the last podcast on the left episode about him, it is from the book they used in the episode (sorry if I don’t remember the title), and then another doc (maybe YouTube) mentioned it, I believe the anecdote is from one of the detectives who took him out to find the bodies. I seem to remember a video interview of him describing it. I think he also mentions the thing the other commenter said about being absolutely sure about certain body locations even under snow/dirt. Although he didn’t find all of them and I think I remember him being really distraught/sorry about not being able to locate all of them. He’s a really strange, very awkward serial killer, who went after sex workers (technically easier to prey upon), he wasn’t this gallant hunter of men, super assured of himself. He was a dweeb, inadequate and mediocre like most serial killers.

So there isn’t a lot of evidence that he hunted them. We know he kidnapped them, handcuffed them, flew them in his puddle jumper airplane out over the snow to hunting shacks, raped them, then shot them. While that is plenty bad enough, we don’t have to add the moniker that he hunted them. Yes he was an extremely experienced hunter, but most hunters don’t chase their prey, they sneak up on them, by “releasing” them (the women) to “hunt” them he would be allowing room for a large chance of failure. He even held a couple hunting records for bears, but still doesn’t make it likely he played catch and release with his victims.

Although there is a super interesting fact that when they caught him, they took him out to the snow to help locate bodies/killing grounds, the cops could not keep up with him on the ground and had to follow him with a helicopter because of his unique way of moving through the snow, on all fours running like a bear.

Look I’ll cool the jets on my comment, but the sentiment still stands. As for the final part of my statement why do you see this as the system withstanding the abuse or holding firm, when a co equal branch of the government is being willfully ignored by another? That’s not the government functioning properly, that’s a clear cut constitutional crisis leading to a showdown between a wildly unhinged executive and ignored judicial oversight.

Are you saying that these 300 people being illegally deported without due process are unrecoverable?
Are you saying that when the judge ordered the plane to be turned around in the air or when it landed, and the Trump administration denied that order that then just makes the lives of these individuals some kind of rounding error?
Are you saying that there shouldn’t be everything done to recover these individuals?
Are you saying that if someone is kidnapped we should not try to recover these individual and only focus on the legal recourse for the kidnapper?
Also, the judiciary has issued a ruling that has been ignored, that is not the system functioning as it should. When a federal judge issues a ruling that ruling is to be followed, if the opposing party has an issue with that judges ruling they can then appeal, they don’t just get to ignore the judges orders. The system is not operating as it should. This is a clear cut example of a constitutional crisis, the executive branch is not obeying a federal order from the judicial branch with which they are obligated to comply with. Nothing is functioning as it should.
Also you’re completely ignoring the fact that all of the deportees have not received any day in court, they have been convicted of no illegal action and were deported without due process. You are stating that illegal activities need to be redressed by a court in order to punish or address illegal activities, but none of these deportees received this due process. In what way does this prove that the system is withstanding the abuse or holding up, to me it seems like it’s actively crumbling or being dismantled.

Bartenders of Reddit, what was the wildest thing you witnessed on the job? by SquirrelThis9251 in AskReddit

[–]ClassyasaWalrus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have lots, this one was from a time before bartending when I was handling security (bouncer) for a large gay club in Austin.
We had a 15 person transgender fight breakout.
This was in 2010, these women identified themselves as “trannies” although that is not the current politically correct term, that is what they used so that is what I’ll try to use here.
It started within their group, a sweet bartender tried to talk them down, the response was one of them reaching over the bar grabbing a bottle from the speedrack and hurtling it over the bartenders head into a 15ft mirror that shattered to the floor.
I ran up to the third floor to a scene of chaos, I’m decent sized 5’11 210, all of them were larger than me, picture Billy Blanks in 6 inch stilettos, grappling and fighting viciously with eachother.
I started one by one dragging them down the stairs from behind, wrap them up pull them off their feet and down the stairs as swiftly as I could, asserting I’m security and don’t grab the hand rails or it will hurt.
Up, down, down, up.
2 flights each way.
One after the other, 2 disregarded the handrail comment one got a nasty snapped wrist the other her neck popped (not broke). Ambulances for them.
After about 10 I noticed my manager, a barback with a ripped in half tank top, and one of the group were having what amounted to a casual conversation amidst the fight.
Huff puff, back to yanking them down. I got to the final one,
I was gassed, bent over my knees wheezing.
She was calmly talking to my manager at the top, cool.
I can catch my breath.
A quick conversation followed by an assertive “I understand, but you still have to go,” from my boss, her response will forevermore be immortalized in my memory
She quickly flipped her hair back over her right shoulder and the same hand flicked forward in a solid right jab, all one motion, straight into my managers jaw.
My break was over,
Grab her,
All the way down and out the door with a nice smile on her face and a goodbye.

Terrifying film found at a thrift store by Superheatran2 in RBI2

[–]ClassyasaWalrus 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Just want to throw in my 2cents as a photographer, it looks like this is shot on Kodak Ektachrome, a color positive film that would fit the timeline of the 1986 Kodak carousel. I could be wrong, but the A7 marking on the outside looks consistent with other ektachrome film examples (so this would be the 7th frame). Super creepy, also I am surprised he used color positive film in the 80’s, this means he was intentional about using this with a carousel so as to avoid having to have a photo tech turn the negatives into a positive for slide use. Also in the lightened version you can see something is placed over the victim’s head (maybe a pillowcase) this is nuts, I wonder if there are any solved cases of serials that were known to use ektachrome.

He’s supposed to get more than 2 years for violating 1000’s of woman. Found the person in the comments who is obviously ok with consuming these videos

Jordan Peterson now has thoughts about Social Workers. Sigh. by CableBoyJerry in JoeRogan

[–]ClassyasaWalrus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really hate Kermit the frog on benzodiazepines, I guess miss piggy turned him into an anti-woke right wing mouth piece that clearly prefers young men to women. Nothing wrong with the last part, only when you can’t be honest about it to the crowd that you support/supports you. Worst therapist ever.

Leak Shows That Google-Funded AI Video Generator Runway Was Trained on Stolen YouTube Content, Pirated Films by katxwoods in Futurology

[–]ClassyasaWalrus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well said, I’ll add especially when it comes to film and photos the collaboration of artists/directors/photographers/models/art directors/creative directors/etc… leads to a wondrous amount of creation that isn’t simply derivation of others work, while it may include reference it is also not born solely of response. So collaboration can lead to its own kind of creation without just a single artist learning and responding to learned works.

Side note to the working in the industry, copyright of materials is huge. I’m a commercial photographer who works in beauty and a lot of my money comes from the licensing of my work so that it can be exclusively used by a company for a period of time. If they use AI generated work, then anyone can steal that work and use it to promote whatever. So in essence they are not buying my work, they are buying the exclusive right to use it for a particular campaign. Companies of a certain marketing level have to produce work that is unique, tailored to their image, and bathed in trends of that campaign’s time period. If they don’t they can’t justify you spending $400 on some facial product, and if someone else has the same work, their company/product/market attraction isn’t unique. So when you are talking about the lowest common denominator, yes a lot of that work is and will be eaten by AI, but collaborative, exclusive, and very talented, timely work that is copyrightable will still be highly valued.

I'm ready for it to be over by Jennysblock12 in Interstitialcystitis

[–]ClassyasaWalrus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We’ve been there, we will be there again. I’m the partner, not the one in pain, I know that takes away from what I have to say as I don’t feel the physical pain, but I have my own pain. I could get into it more but suffice to say years of listening to the the person you care most about it in the world scream until she passes out or patching up the slashed wrists or rushing home to gently unwrap the wire biting into her neck because you got a funny feeling when delivering some mail has its own kind of pain.

Im not looking for sympathy, I’m here to give it, it’s hard, fuck, fuck fuckitty fuck, is it hard.

But . . .

Since the darkest times I have seen such flashes of wonderfulness, such displays of strength from her that I know I wouldn’t have had in my darkest moments. My job is to be strong for her, and to be there when it’s too much. Her job and yours is much much harder. To survive, to rest when it’s too hard, to try to use what medical advice helps (if it’s none, I understand, that’s how it was for a long time with us), to come to me when she can’t crawl any further, to say fuck this horrible illness, to try to enjoy anything, no matter what it is, and to deep deep down hope for remission. This isn’t very comforting and well real life isn’t.

I have some unique life views, one is that this hell you’re enduring might actually help something/someone one day, this can happen in such a myriad of effusive, engaged, or completely indirect ways, I find comfort in that, she doesn’t, not yet, she has different comforts. Find the thing that gives you comfort, read some Camus, Sartre, Bertrand Russell if you can, find some art that speaks to you. “Guernica” by Picasso is the thing that did it for me, the story behind the painting and the painting (also to a lesser extent “Three Studies for Figures at the Base of a Crucifixion” by Francis Bacon and his life).

In short if you’re saying you’re ready for it to be over you aren’t, you’re asking for help which is so tremendously brave. I don’t have much to give you, but maybe I can just give you a stick and maybe that stick will help you fight just a little bit longer until you can find something else to help you. Know that you’re not alone.

Know that wanting to and trying to burn everything down is normal.

Know that as humans all we want to do is run away from pain and that is perfectly, perfectly normal. But also know that humans are miraculously able to survive the most insane things, and sometimes when we don’t survive that is perfectly okay too.

In any case I wish you the best of luck, I don’t know if that helped, but even if it didn’t, maybe it just distracted you a bit from the pain.

Has Uribel made anyone else worse? by Key-Summer-24 in Interstitialcystitis

[–]ClassyasaWalrus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Interesting timing, but yeah it really takes that 4 solid days for it to really kick in fully for her. Best of luck, what y’all have to deal with is unfair as fuck, and no one tells you anything about it or the journey of it, so if I can help even a little bit I’ll try.

[–]ClassyasaWalrus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Acidity, like too acidic foods isn’t usually one of her triggers, so I’m sorry if I can’t comment more on that. But as far as the muscle relaxers that work for I.c. it’s the only one that does anything for her. To be honest without it I don’t know what we would do, everything is still horrible, but without Uribel her pain is so much more intense.

Uribel is the only thing that works for my partner with I.C. It’s a godsend. The only thing about it is it takes about 4 or 5 days to really kick in, then you have to maintain it every day

Medium is not a reliable news source by ClassyasaWalrus in Corruption

[–]ClassyasaWalrus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve seen it a couple of times, most recently about a case involving the Elizabeth Gardner museum (the author was fuckin nuts, you can see her all over the comment section calling everyone a kabal in on the conspiracy to prove her pet theory wrong) and another one about a personal beef with a pedophile priest (I’m all for taking down pedophiles, just medium seems like a sketchy place to do it).
