My BIGGEST problem is that I want to be politically informed but I would also like to have a good day and be happy, and those are mutually exclusive things apparently.
it's so cool that the most exciting cartoon in the world right now is led by an Australian and you absolutely can not watch it anywhere in Australia, a country he had to leave to have a career
Guy who pays people to play video games for him so he can cosplay as a pro gamer is going to pay robots to make a game for him. Unprecedented levels of slop-maxxing
There is absolutely no reason why pepper spray should be illegal, especially for women.
It is useless as an offensive weapon, as the user also often gets sprayed.
Pepper spray is one of the only tools that can immediately and non lethally de-escalate a violent or non consensual attack and provide an opportunity for escape, even against a physically stronger attacker.
This man used pepper spray to protect his wife and children, and not even the home invaders were seriously harmed because luckily for them, he had acquired pepper spray illegally.
Without pepper spray, the only alternative legal for this man to possess would be a kitchen knife or a bat.
Both of which, if used would get the father unjustly jailed and one or multiple invaders seriously harmed or killed.
Undoubtably traumatising the entire family in the process.
A country that bans pepper spray is a country that doesn’t take women’s safety seriously. An absolutely ridiculous law that should be disobeyed.
@go1dwing I saw my best friend on a random road one day on the south island in NZ (we lived in the north island), both of us went to different schools and just both happened to be on school trips at the same time in some outback street.
