I judge people who judge others for gatekeeping. God forbid I have a well informed and strong opinion based on experience. If I share that with a casual or new person then it’s now called gatekeeping.

It’s ok to have different opinions but not all opinions are equal, and if you’re a casual participant or new to a field/hobby/whatever your opinion doesn’t matter as much. Additionally, if you are discouraged and feel held back by strong opinions by others then maybe you should be kept out.

I’m glad she’s the candidate too, but you’re just making up a scenario in your head based on no evidence.

That was me up until my mid 20’s

What about 3 hours early in the night, say 11pm to 2am?

In a pinch I could, by pretending to be in a zoom meeting.

True, but I’ve found it is just as like to change things for the worse as the better. Waking up from a deep deep sleep after only an hour can leave me as a zombie for the whole day.

I ended up sleeping for maybe 20 minutes this time and it has worked out so far.

Great answer

It’s a general feeling of dread of the weekend ending and having to go back to work on Monday. Some people let it ruin their Sundays.

Thr scaries start for me once it gets close to noon and the day no longer feels young. The feeling that the day is lost merges with a similar feeling about life, which urges me to do something, anything, with my time.

That’s when I usually get a burst of productivity that lasts until it’s 5pm. The weekend is gone and it’s time to enter self care mode. That usually means good food and entertainment in one form or another. As it gets dark I’ll start trying to stop time with booze or a bit of weed as I indulge myself with sports or a movie.

I will often go to bed early so I can be all cozy and in a safe space to go down a wikipedia hole, read a book, listen to music and just veg in general.

Once the day is actually over the scaries usually have disappeared oddly enough.

The public does benefit from it because the people who’s jobs it is to protect the public have access to the data.

We’re getting our monies worth, especially if you’ve paid attention to how accurate hurricane tracking and intensity models have become over the past 10+ years.

Some context from a mod at /r/law

Selected Applications of the Brandenburg Test The Supreme Court in Hess v. Indiana (1973) applied the Brandenburg test to a case in which Gregory Hess, an Indiana University protester, said, “We’ll take the fucking street later (or again)." The Supreme Court ruled that Hess’s profanity was protected under the Brandenburg test, as the speech “amounted to nothing more than advocacy of illegal action at some indefinite future time.” The Court held that “since there was no evidence, or rational inference from the import of the language, that his words were intended to produce, and likely to produce, imminent disorder, those words could not be punished by the State on the ground that they had a ‘tendency to lead to violence.’”

In NAACP v. Claiborne Hardware Co.(1982), Charles Evers threatened violence against those who refused to boycott white businesses. The Supreme Court applied the Brandenburg test and found that the speech was protected: “Strong and effective extemporaneous rhetoric cannot be nicely channeled in purely dulcet phrases. An advocate must be free to stimulate his audience with spontaneous and emotional appeals for unity and action in a common cause. When such appeals do not incite lawless action, they must be regarded as protected speech.”

Brandenburg Test:

The test determined that the government may prohibit speech advocating the use of force or crime if the speech satisfies both elements of the two-part test:

The speech is “directed to inciting or producing imminent lawless action,” AND

The speech is “likely to incite or produce such action.”

Anyone seen an explanation for this trend of useless and stupid censoring of words?

I hope the shutter sound was turned off
