[00:21] IsambardPrince Power's still out for everyone who isn't rich enough to buy power walls and solar panels and a house on stilts. [00:21] IsambardPrince But they pay down debt with a "surplus". [00:25] MinceR anyway, here's powerwall [00:26] IsambardPrince It's basically just a huge battery that can power the house at night. [00:26] MinceR a house on stilts can still be blown away by a hurricane :> [00:27] IsambardPrince MinceR, Apparently there was a "planned community" that handled a category 5 hurricane head-on the other day. [00:27] IsambardPrince The lights didn't even flicker. [00:27] IsambardPrince You can build a house to be hurricane-proof even relatively close to the shore, but it's not going to be cheap. [00:28] IsambardPrince Florida is full of shoddy construction where instead of doing it so it would survive, they just rebuild it every few years using insurance payouts, and we see how that's going. [00:28] IsambardPrince Many people dropped their insurance and just "prayed" there'd never be a hurricane, then there was. [00:29] MinceR it's like prayer doesn't work, or something.

[22:28] IsambardPrince MinceR, ^ [22:28] MinceR European Court of Human Religions [22:30] IsambardPrince You can't have rights without the government first taking them all away and then deciding which rights you get back, and who gets them, and how much, and what they havee to do first. [22:30] IsambardPrince And then ignoring those rights whenever it wants to. [22:30] IsambardPrince -Da Lobsta [22:31] IsambardPrince The gubermint gives us da human rights, derrr herr derrr. [22:31] IsambardPrince I eat glue. [22:32] IsambardPrince Da gubermint built us a camp. [22:32] IsambardPrince Dey say we go there to "concentrate"? [22:32] IsambardPrince On the rights, I guess.

[22:58] IsambardPrince Gentlemen, congratulations! [22:59] IsambardPrince You're everything we've come to expect from years of public school. [22:59] MinceR lol [22:59] IsambardPrince Now if you'll follow me, there's just one more test. An eye exam! [22:59] IsambardPrince Basically all abuses of human rights come from the government. [22:59] IsambardPrince I've never seen it protect any, or be the source of one. ● Oct 16 [23:01] IsambardPrince Everything in the Bill of Rights is there as something the government can't do, and it's supposed to work like that because as soon as there's nothing right there that doesn't say that, they'll go right after it. There won't be any of this beating around the bush trying to decide how it can curtail free speech or the right to bear arms, because it just won't exist. [23:01] IsambardPrince Then you might as well be Canada. [23:01] IsambardPrince Where they take it away and criminalize whatever the government doesn't like. [23:01] IsambardPrince Err, nothing right there that says that, I mean. [23:01] IsambardPrince But like, the government doesn't give you any rights. [23:02] IsambardPrince The best you can hope for is they leave you alone and follow their own laws. [23:02] IsambardPrince But that hardly ever happens. [23:02] IsambardPrince I think my favorite story was how DCFS (the government) was held in contempt by a government court, for letting children die. [23:03] IsambardPrince And nothing happened, so it let more children die. [23:03] IsambardPrince And they were found in contempt again, and nothing happened, so more children died. [23:03] IsambardPrince And so on. [23:03] IsambardPrince This is your precious fucking government. [23:04] IsambardPrince Nothing happens to the guy running DCFS so he keeps showing up to his job he only has because of DEI (Destroy Everything with Incompetence), and more kids die. [23:04] IsambardPrince And the circle goes round and round.
