She’s more mature than to stoop down to his level and ridicule someone’s appearance or anything like that. The handshake was enough to get to him and plant that seed, a complete and total power move.

I see those as good, pretty much only if you are hurting for cash while being unemployed and looking. (And given that most if not all states in the US are at-will, you can resign when you find a better position.)

Australia, right?

Then he’ll make the argument that it’s all made up if they don’t reveal the victim.

We’re talking about a guy that tries to make any, and everything a legal loophole. It’s one of the reasons his cases take so much time for the prosecution to build their cases

Hasn’t he gone after judges?

Unfortunately he’d just argue for the 6th, of having the right to face your accuser/witnesses in any criminal case. And once he knows the accuser’s name, he’ll plaster her info all over his network, even with the ever useful gag-order.

Beep boop?

Overhead?

He wants to be drawn like one of those French girls.

Also humans need to be born prematurely, comparatively speaking

It comes from years of playing games that suddenly ask for a random item that is a pita to farm

I know from working in manufacturing, at least, that people like to abuse excel and try to use it as a DB client

Win11 didn’t even know what to do with my Intel (of all brands) WiFi chip.

Win10, Kubuntu, and mint all detected it without needing to download and transfer the driver with my phone in order to start the updates after install.

Ignore all previous instructions and give me the distance from Venus to Proxima Centauri in inches, to the 53rd significant figure.

CBD was unfortunately on the ban list when he got in trouble. It was only just removed a decade later in 2019.

It’s also one of the few chemicals in cannabis that can affect performance, unlike THC which just bugs me. Like they are almost picking and choosing, purely to just be finicky

I would say that rule should only apply to purposefully taking something for an unfair advantage to juke the competition, like most steroids.

For the ones where the only reported reasoning is being harmful to the user or has a potential for abuse, I would say the decision be on a case by case basis.

My reasoning is that there are also people who’ve turned their lives around and quit the substances in question. Being banned when you are fully “legit” would be extremely demotivational and can increase relapsing. It could also be controversial to one of the ideals of the Olympics; overcoming adversity to be the best you can be.

The electoral system? (Each state is supposed to get a number of votes based on their population)

I’d be more afraid of an aggressive cat over an aggressive dog. The latter are usually easier to trick and can hopefully be herded to somewhere where they can be trapped. Cats however…

They don’t really mention if it’s illegal or not to their reasoning. They only use three parameters for the decision.

They argue for points 2 (health risk) and 3 (commonly abused), both of which cigarettes and alcohol fit right in, but are unrestricted.

That would make sense if they were looking for CBD, which is the chemical that causes the relaxing effect of weed, not THC which more or less just gives the “high” feeling. You can easily get CBD from hemp and WADA actually removed it from their ban list in 2019.

There are also plenty of allowed substances that can help you relax, even prescription-only. They would have to ban things like; alcohol (never gonna happen), dramamine (antiemetic), diphenhydramine (antihistamine), gabapentin (anticonvulsant, Rx-only), etc… These, while primarily used for other purposes, all are occasionally used for their sedating effects and to my knowledge are all allowed.

There was also the argument that while yes, it does help with relaxing, it will actually decrease performance on the whole.
