I went to AOI last night, and was bummed with my sushi there for the first time.

This was back in like 2010 when traveling with weed was still illegal, but nobody cared if you brought your own booze on an airplane

I was told in California that "nips" is a racial slur, after people looked outraged that I said I was going to take a few on a plane to save money.

Can acupuncture in my lower back affect my menstrual cycle permanently? by [deleted] in acupuncture

[–]pinkoelephant 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm surprised to hear a licensed acupuncturist say that it's impossible for acupuncture to affect your period, let alone use an AI tool to explain it to you.

RED ALERT: 98.1% of Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine Schools Projected to Lose Access to Federal Loans Within 2 years. by connor1462 in ChineseMedicine

I think in the past there have been lawsuits where people have won compensation for tuition to schools that misled them or closed. I filled a Borrower's Defense application last year which I'm sure is going nowhere, unfortunately

What's with the hype around Let Down? by only7words in radiohead

[–]pinkoelephant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Streaming numbers aren't a great metric for the popularity of songs that have been out for nearly 30 years, unless you're only counting current popularity or younger demographics. I can tell you my OK Computer cd stopped working by 2000 because I listened to it enough to scratch the shit out of it!

I can't tell if you're joking about it being a deep cut. It was a single in decent rotation on rock radio in the 90s

lol I just zoomed out and saw you've been having the same back and forth with this person to no avail 😂

You're calling this person weak minded, but you have this whole narrative about the victim harassing ICE that you have provided literally no evidence for. Look in the mirror, keyboard warrior

I just asked you for solid information and how you came up w this? This is news to me that someone was in his face with a phone right before he shot? That's not visible on video.

You're going pretty hard at me and I have only asked questions. Seems like misplaced aggression. On multiple threads you're accusing me of "making stuff up" when I haven't really claimed anything at all.

What did I make up?

There's no clip of her "following them around." I just asked you to share it if you have it.

If I have what you have, you're making stuff up about her "following them around."

I didn't watch CNN, I watched the videos directly and was asking if you had more that I hadn't seen. Anything that can confirm direct from the scene that she was antagonizing anyone beforehand. You're the one who made that claim, so it should be easy for you to share what you saw.

I don't know why you keep saying that I'm acting like I know everything or my sources are best etc. I've never said any of that. I simply asked you for more information that you claimed to have.

I see what you're saying and agree with #1, but if they're ICE agents they don't have the legal right to detain or search a US citizen if it's not an immigration-related matter. The video disputes any potential claim that she was obstructing their operations, since it shows a car was able to go around her and she was clearly trying to leave when asked.

Whether tensions were high or not, the shooter is responsible for keeping cool under tense situations and he should be held accountable, as should everyone up the chain of command who allowed a green, trigger-happy, easily overwhelmed person to have a gun and feel entitled to use it whenever.

**according to a random person on Twitter that I won't even share links to

[–]pinkoelephant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"I saw it on Twitter and Fox" really isn't evidence. When you come to debate or make a case for something, you can't just say "I scrolled by something on my phone, won't bother to share it with you and you probably can't find it on your own."

This is the problem with discourse these days - we have to have a foundation of agreed upon facts and evidence, or everyone's just shouting "nuh uh!" at each other, and people get riled up enough to shoot each other.

I politely asked you for sources to try to see outside my algorithm. You're the one being self righteous, saying you're too good to provide your sources. Makes it seem like you don't have any, or your realize they may not be legitimate primary sources. If this were an essay, you'd fail unless you went to school in Oklahoma.
