Yeah, you don't doomsday device now. You rig it to your house alarm so if it ever goes off it triggers. There's no such thing as overreacting, just being extra sure.

Also a doomsday device would be really hard to make, make in secret, or get any sort of approval for. And how would it work? Guess nukes would, but then you'd need to find a way to get access to all the arsenals and... Es muy dificil.

Some of the most dangerous chemicals can be made just sitting in a basic lab.

There's one that ignites metal.
And glass.

And concrete.


How villainous you can be with that is all up to creativity. And free time.




There is another compound that can be used to force evacuate a city on the merit of the smell it produces. Its odor is so powerful, the slightest amount escaping into the air makes a city block sick.


... Not that I frequently plan out methods to carry out a chemical war on a daily basis or anything!

In recent political news, Josh Earnest, white house press secretary, said that Donald Trump calling for all muslims being banned from entering the US disqualifies him as president.

I am fairly amused and glad that he has been openly denounced like this, I'm actually hoping that Trump can't swallow his pride and digs a deeper hole.

I'm not sure what's going around my area, but a crap ton of cars were pulled over by police today while I was on the way home from college. I saw at least 6 cars and an empty semi-truck get pulled over on my side of the freeway alone and at least 2 more on the other side.

I'm assuming there's some terrorist paranoia or something going on, or maybe something to do with that car that had like an hour long chase with the police. This one. Or maybe that another person was shot to death with the suspect(s) uncaught.

Not too sure, but a lot of weird and bad things have been going on around here. Stay safe guys!

One of my relatives (my dad's cousin) teaches at a college here in Arkansas. I don't know much, as my mom just told me a couple minutes ago, but there was some asshole up there with a rifle, and had a shitload of explosives in his truck.

Here's the kicker: the cops got him before he could do anything.

In read about that just a few minutes ago.

It is scary how pharmacutical companies can just shoot prices up on lifesaving medications.

But will this cause his company to undo the shit he did? Would it bar him from ever holding such a position again? Would he actually get a real punishment, like jail time instead of house arrest like Martha Stewart?

Doubtful.

Though it'd be nice if this was the beginning of a spectacular downward spiral of self destruction, where he loses everything, begins sleeping in a box in an alley, where he sucks dick for drug cheddar, and ends up sharing a dirty heroin needle with some HIV+ junkie, but it wouldn't matter because he already got it (along with good ol' herpes), thanks to all those cheap blowjobs, and trust me, there'd be a lot of them, because herion ain't cheap.

Wow, I never thought a detactable soul would come in handy.

I hope the jury sets a bail and then the judge jacks it up by 5,000%

I know the guy is trash, but you really don't need to go into that kind of tirade in a thread like this.

I love that the FBI had to specify they didn't mess with the Wu Tang Album, cuz you know every one of those investigators was thinkin' of snatching that.

Make no mistake, the only reason he's being charged at all is because his shitty behavior made headlines, otherwise its not really anything out of the ordinary for a corporate executive. He's sure as hell not going to get the kind of punishment anyone who isnt rich would have gotten for the same crime. Wealth is basically the same as immunity from prosectution unless you piss off someone higher up on the social hierarchy

which is why I have always hated the "elite."

I'm not gonna hate someone for having more cheddar, don't get me wrong. It's that those who have an income over a certain amount are pretty much considered above the law. Half the time it seems they'd have to get caught deliberately attempting to detonate a nuclear device in a major city to actually see the inside of a prison cell as an occupant.

I'm forgetting something here.

My train of thought was longer, but someone uncoupled a few of the cars.

Its not just a matter of cheddar, it usually has to be cheddar coupled with social connections, which usually only legacy families have. Someone who is born a nobody but strikes it rich doesnt have quite the same protection, he has it better than a poor person, but the actual elite status is beyond him. Legacy families are modern day royalty, essentially beyond reproach.
