What a piss poor obfuscation. He was citing a poll in which 50% of black people think it’s “not okay” to be white. Why wouldn’t you avoid these people at all costs? Should black people not avoid communities of 50% white supremacists?You are willfully misrepresenting his point bc you know he’s right. Can you address either of those points? You can’t and you won’t, because there’s no logical argument to be made in favor.

Fuck I can’t believe low IQ morons are making me defend boomer cartoon man.

I don't care if newspapers die.

I was poking fun at the hypocrisy of many people who, in one instance, applaud a newspaper for doing the "right thing" and cheering them on. But on the other hand, won't do anything to support those papers and reward them for upholding what is right.

Factual reporting is over on a macro level.

I’ve been in the pit for many shows there. It’s fine, and sight lines are generally pretty good, but you aren’t really gonna see any moshing:movement. There just isn’t the front to back room for it, and they don’t sell enough tickets for the area to cause much close contact outside of the first row of two. You’ll be close to people, but it’s never dense enough for there to be much action.

All of the security will be at the back guardrail trying to prevent people from jumping the barricade. They’ll fail 9 times out of 10 because they’re volunteers so why would they care that much.

Newspapers are dying because they adhere to a single perspective. Before you jump up and down and scream something about me being a “Fawx News” acolyte, let me tell you that all I want is non-agenda-driven reporting. I want the truth. And I want to be able to make my own decisions on how that truth affects me and my family. Local news outlets could rebound incredibly easily - perhaps not as print media, but certainly as localized online sources of daily information, if only they would report factually and without horrifically lopsided political perspectives. Advertisers are very simple to figure out; they go where the eyeballs are. And eyeballs leave when they are able to, in every instance, know what will be covered and how it will be covered.

Best thing you can do is some in depth circuit metering. If you comfortable with electricity, it’s pretty straight forward. If your uncomfortable with it, an electrician will be able to set it up for you. It’s not an overnight project, I would recommend doing it for a month and calculating your loads.

It won’t be a 2 pole breaker, it will be your single pole breakers that are doing it.
