@oaklandprivacy this should not be legal!

  • The only anonymity I can understand are that of victims which are under protection amidst continued threats to their lives.

But even in Italy where some prosecutors are living for decades now under 24/7 armed police escort for investigating the Mafia will folks like Gratteri need to be in court and Identify themselves, and so do the lawyers at the defense.

  • If one doesn't fell comfortable facing #accountability & #consequences then they don't belong into any position of power, mich less a uniform!

#ICE needs to be abolished and the only thing that should come to mind to with "ice" are cold sweet treats, frozen water and German Highspeed Rail, not #AmericanGestapo!

@reverseics Just do it like #Google #ProjectZero and tell them straight up in their face:

I was nice once, now I won't! IDGAF what you need to do to fix it. Details will be public in 90 days. Go fuck yourselves!

And basically prepare everything to be ready in precisely to the second 90 days from the moment mail was sent to them.

A cartoon, reaction, & new age of cruelty & hate ... And a story of #truth and #consequences in the rat-hole of #GQP / #TrumpVirus #nihilism & #incompetence

> The threats against Adam Zyglis began when he shared a cartoon

We now have a Toddler King spewing hate, delusion & retribution, attacking free press, Colbert, and windmills… Haters, believers & victims of ‘brainwashing’.

Now it's a cartoonist. #America ?!

THE deEP STATE : The political artwork of Michael de Adder · Event canceled after threats against cartoonistBy Michael de Adder

Military adventures overseas and some of the consequences.

Political ‘leaders’ love to wave their Willys, confident that they and their kids will not be on the frontlines (I have). They also rarely consider the consequences having retired and now making money hand over hand.

@jrdepriest the candidate did the right thing: Don't work for #CommercialRealEstate / #OfficeFetishists aka. assholes.

  • Let the top brass know that the decision to force people to do #UnpaidLabour aka. #commute has costed them an applicant and let financial stakeholders and investors know that.

Without #accountability & #consequences, shit like this will continue.

  • Personally I see no value to even consider working #onsite unless it's evidently a necessity (i.e. some electronics lab / repair / manufacturing plant or onsite support for clients).

Cuz it is just a waste of time and resources.

🇬🇧 English🇪🇸 Español🇩🇪 Deutsch

The Place Beyond The Pines

Film disponible sur Netflix au moment de la rédaction.
Genres : Thriller, Drame, Films indépendants
Réalisation : Derek Cianfrance
Casting : Ryan Gosling, Bradley Cooper, Eva Mendes, Ray Liotta, Craig Van Hook, Bruce Greenwood, Dane DeHann
Durée : 2h20
Note : 5/5

Synopsis :
Quand les choix d’un motard marginal et le destin qui en découle bouleversent les vies de ceux qui sont sur sa trajectoire. L’amour, la vie et la mort s’entremêlent.

Une Intrigue Surprenante et Captivante

Il y a des films dont les premières minutes ne laissent en rien présager de la suite que prendra le récit, celui-ci en fait partie. Nous suivons le parcours des personnages de ce film avec intérêt tout du long. Le récit est très cohérent et bien construit, chaque personnage a son importance et les acteurs se révèlent tous excellents, les plus anciens comme les plus jeunes.

Une Réalisation Maîtrisée et Inspirante

On sent le soin apporté à chaque élément du film dans tous les aspects, qu’il s’agisse de la lumière, des angles de vue, du montage qui nous plonge dans l’action autant que dans la contemplation. On a vraiment à faire à une œuvre magistrale de cinéma bien plus que certains films qualifiés de monuments uniquement par le nom de leurs réalisateurs ou l’accumulation de stars au casting, à consonance italienne par exemple.

Une Structure Narrative en Deux Temps

Le film se déroule en deux temps, le premier est à apprécier comme une mise en situation, une introduction de la deuxième partie. Bien qu’elle soit de qualité égale et faisant partie intégrante du récit, cette seconde partie du film est un changement qui peut surprendre voire déranger par le nombre plus important de protagonistes mais cela démontre que les choix d’un homme ont des répercussions bien au-delà de sa vie. C’est entre autres choses ce qui fait la force de ce film, comme d’autres ayant développé ce thème.

Clarté, Beauté et Satisfaction

Il n’en reste pas moins que dans celui-ci tout est très fluide, clair et sans bavures, le tableau se lit sans subterfuges inutiles. La beauté des sentiments exposés dans ce film ne souffre d’aucun artifice. On est, à la fin du film, totalement satisfait d’avoir choisi de le regarder.

Since when did any #VetoPower faced actual #consequences?

1) Where are Saddam Hussein's WMDs?

They never existed. At not by the time Bush Jr. committed himself to the Crime of Aggression. The #USA didn't give a fuck about #Iraq vommitting #democide and #genocide against the #Kurds.

2) What consequences did officials face when the WMDs weren't found?

None at all.

3) Why should proponents of the Iraq invasion, such as Sean Hannity, be trusted now?

I don't trust them further than I can piss straight the air whyilst laying on my back and not get wet.

4) Is Iran stronger or weaker as a result of the Iraq War?

Obviously #Iran profited from the removal of #SaddamHussein which was propped up after the #Shah got yeeted as a middle-finger by the US…
