@conan_esq I expect a full analysis. Seems like there's a lot of interesting stuff just with procedure.

"Tiffney Billions" sounds like an anime villain from the 90s

Karmelo Anthony Trial Update: For the past year, Karmelo Anthony supporters have claimed that Frisco ISD security footage shows Karmelo being “attacked by four boys” and proves he was acting in self-defense.

That video has now been played in open court.

And many of those supporters are about to get a harsh reality check.

The footage barely shows anything. It does not show Karmelo being attacked. It does not clearly depict the events that so many people have confidently claimed it does.

For an entire year, supporters repeated a narrative based largely on descriptions provided by the family’s advocate, Tiffney Billions.

Now the jury and the public have seen the actual footage for themselves.

According to Mary Ann from the Daily Mail, the video was heavily zoomed in, making it extremely grainy. The faces of the individuals involved are not visible. At most, the footage appears to show one person pushing another person under the tent.

The video also shows that Karmelo Anthony and Austin Metcalf were under the tent together for approximately four minutes before the stabbing occurred.

In short, the security footage does not provide the clear visual proof of self-defense that Karmelo supporters have been claiming existed for the past year.

There are deaf people who refuse to get implants or get medical care for their children that would alleviate hearing loss because they want to preserve "deaf culture" and language.
This is a real issue and has been a controversy for at least a decade at this point.

It is so, so fascinating to me how GLP-1s are colliding with something that, for lack of a better term, I'll call 'fat identity'.

It's one thing to argue that fat people shouldn't be discriminated against. But a lot of fat people seem to have constructed an entire identity out of being fat. They took the moralizing lectures they faced from others and turned it around into moralizing about bigotry, with a new label of fatphobia. It's treated similarly to gender or race bigotry. And while there are surely a lot of people being jerks to the obese, a lot of fatphobia sure looks like "my doctor told me I should lose weight" from the outside.

People seem to have forgotten that while nobody should be a jerk to fat people for no reason, being fat is in fact a medical issue. It is, in an objective sense, a problem to be fixed.
Now we have a drug that (erasing some nuance) just solves the problem. And there are instances of fat-identity influencers basically shamed by their communities/fans for losing weight. People lose the weight but still somehow cling to the idea that parts of the process were fatphobic. It feels like watching identity deconstruction in real time.

It makes me wonder - are there similar cultural recriminations for deaf people who get cochlear implants? If we developed a pill to cure blindness, would some blind people still cling to blind identity, or call a doctor bigoted for suggesting the pill?

I talk about how inconveniences aren't necessarily bad, and how they might contribute to art and entertainment. I do this using my own experiences with vinyl! (Yes, those are mine below)

One of my favorite things about seeing this account pop up is that people in the replies are treating these posts like they're real and the person who wrote it can see what they're writing.
