Shout out to Lawrence Russell Brewer the death row inmate who pranked the state of Texas so hard they stopped granting last meal requests.
Brewer requested an absurdly large and expensive last meal, which Texas granted him (for some reason), and upon receiving it did not eat ANY of it because he apparently just wasn't hungry.
Below is the contents of his requested meal, courtesy of wikipedia's article on last meals. Enjoy.
- Two chicken fried steaks smothered in gravy with sliced onions
- a triple meat bacon cheeseburger with fixings on the side
- a cheese omelet with ground beef, tomatoes, onions, bell peppers and jalapeños
- a large bowl of fried okra with ketchup
- one pound of barbecue with half a loaf of white bread
- three fajitas with fixings
- a Meat Lovers pizza
- three root beers
- one pint of Blue Bell vanilla ice cream
- a slab of peanut butter fudge with crushed peanuts.
…I’ll always reblog the frog.

Counterpoint: Matsumoto Hoji, active c. 1875
That’s a compelling counterpoint
What is y'all opinion on this last Jerma stream? I think it was unnecessary for him to kill those guys. At least it was a quick death compared to the rest of Jerma's victims i guess
resisting arrest shouldn't be a crime. it should be a human right to resist being arrested
When someone is grabbing you and holding you down and shit, resistance isn't even a conscious decision. Your body automatically tries to remain in place against outside forces, and if you've ever just tried to position another person's hands for them or had someone do so to you, you know it's finicky and requires concerted effort. "Resisting arrest" isn't even limited to active struggle but can be invoked whenever the pig thinks someone simply wasn't submitting as smoothly as they wanted. Add to this the fact that the degree of resistance is typically impossible to prove, define or even support with any kind of evidence and it is just 100% an intentionally generic nonsense charge invented so they can punish anybody at all that they've arrested.
the most damning fact about policing and law is that resisting arrest is a crime you can be charged with on its own. no other charges need to be brought.
if a cop decides out of the blue to arrest you, you know, for kicks, then decides you weren’t compliant enough (which can and has been merely asking “why are you arresting me?”), you can be found guilty of a crime that they baselessly forced upon you
the cop didn’t break any laws arresting you for no reason. it’s just a procedural issue.
Imagine a butch who dates robotgirls and she's got the belt and carabiner "ready for business" look down, but all the stuff hanging from it is reverse-engineering tools.
A full set of screwdriver bits (including security torx and those weird tri-wing Nintendo ones), assorted spuders, those little rubber suction-cups you use to remove LCDs, a line flashlight, macro lenses, IPA wipes, chip pullers, portable hot air rework gun and a pinecil soldering iron, desoldering braid, a wide variety of ESD-safe tweezers, and one of those anti-stack wristbands but on a retractable lead like it's for walking a dog.
She left her backpack at home but it's got a stereo inspection station, a full set of lockpicks (including those tubular lock impresioning ones), and an aging ThinkPad with a bunch of USB adapters: every memory card format you can imagine, all the major hard drive interfaces, and even 3.5"/5.25" floppy disks thanks to a 3D printed enclosure with a greaseweazle flux imager (the Applesauce stays at home connected to her Mac Mini). A USB optical drive that can read and burn all the cd formats, and a as small plastic case of some blank CD-Rs, DVD-Rs, and Blu-rays. A bunch of USB flash drives, some blank, some preflashed with assorted tools and marked with little keychain labels: some linuxes, a warezed all-in-one windows installer, live distros for tails and kali and partionmagic and DBAN.
She's ready for anything.
Hang on she just sent me a message on some decentralized end-to-end encrypted messaging tool...
Ahh. Apparently I'm greatly misrepresenting her, as if I had remembered to check the side pockets on her backpack, I would have seen the oscilloscope, logic analyzer, JTAG and in-circuit chip clips, and the TL866II+ EEPROM programmer.
I'm sorry if I've offended anyone with this oversight.
just some of the pharaoh's curses I've collected during my travels through the ancient deserts
Y'all, I’m getting emotional.
One of my absolute favorite astronomical bodies is the Crab Nebula, or Messier 1. The Crab Nebula is a “planetary nebula”, which means it’s the enormous, beautiful corpse of a once-giant star. The star that formed the Crab Nebula went supernova and exploded in 1054, and was so bright at the time of its death that you could see it from Earth during the day - for almost a month. For that month, it was brighter than every single thing in the sky except the moon and the sun. Some of you have probably heard of it, or have at least seen this Hubble picture:
But how many of y'all have zoomed in?
Inside all of those lovely rainbow clouds is the supernova remnant - a neutron star. A neutron star is made of the densest possible material that we know of - any denser, and it’d collapse the rest of the way into a full-fledged black hole. Neutron stars are so unimaginably dense that they’re not even made of an element, not really. The star at the center of the Crab Nebula is one, single atomic nucleus 12 miles in diameter, made entirely of close-packed neutrons. One teaspoon would weigh 10 million tons. Imagine taking a passenger jet, condensing it down to the size of a mote of dust, and then filling a spoon with that dust. And it spins too - 30 times a second. That spinning causes huge jets of material to eject from the poles at half the speed of light. The incredibly powerful magnetic field traps any stray particles and accelerates them in circular paths through the nebula. Just LOOK at this shit! See the ghosty shadows of the jets, stretching from the top left corner to the bottom right?
But what’s really making me lose it is this Hubble timelapse. The star is making ripples. Its moving. Its been dead for almost a thousand years, but its still putting on its final, spectacular show.
It never ceases to amaze me that the things we call “dead” stars are some of the most dynamic, energetic, and awe-inspiring objects in the universe. Normal stars are downright STAGNANT compared to what these so-called “stellar remnants” get up to. Maybe we shouldn’t be thinking of them as dead stars, but as the next phase in a star’s life. Just as caterpillars “end” their mundane lives and metamorphose into something new and strange and capable of flight, these stars destroy themselves to leave behind something far more exotic, playing at the edge of the laws of physics in ways we still don’t fully understand.

i have a friend who has kinda bad eczema on their right hand but their left hand is fine and thats because acidity makes eczema worse and that includes vaginal acidity and my friend is both a lesbian and a slut so they finger a lot of people and that fucks up the hand they use (their right hand). Anyways do you think BBC sherlock would deduce that by looking at my friend’s hands
nothing couldve prepared me for the last sentence
@rantsintherain (im sorry if this is a bad day for you to read this but i needed to you experience what im experiencing right now)
i think he would but maybe not because i dont think bbc sherlock knows what a vagina is. all he knows is penis.
My favourite Da Vinky twins trans ally moments:
- When they said their pronouns are they/them because there’s 2 of them
- “It doesn’t matter what your pronouns are, because at the end of the day, it’s night”
At the end of the day, it's night
listen LISTEN kim being amused by/going along with harry's dumb bullshit is so so important to me okay i want to them to spend the rest of their lives being silly IDIOTS together thanks
Bonus:
you can only have proper random sex with your roguelike wife once. it'll never be the same.
you seeded her.
i am a magnet for accolades
