King County leaders voted to deprioritize law enforcement's response to some psychoactive drugs in order to encourage expanded research into their potential for mental health benefits. The Metropolitan King County Council voted 6-2 on a motion Tuesday to support “entheogen-related activities,” including substances such as psilocybin mushrooms, ayahuasca, and mescaline. The approved motion makes the investigation, arrest, and prosecution of adults using such substances for personal, noncommercial purposes among the county’s lowest priorities.

@Habubrats71 My kind of stuff

After a few “Hail Kelly’s” Bill Burke and Tom Henichek flew over France without Permission One of the most entertaining stories about flying the Blackbird comes from Lt. Colonel William Burk Jr., who shares about a particular mission he flew [according to SR-71 pilot Stormy Boudreaux, Tom Henichek was Burk’s RSO for that mission] over Lebanon back in 1982 in the book Skunk Works by Ben Rich. ‘In the fall of ’82, I flew from Mildenhall on a mission over Lebanon in response to the Marine barracks bombing. President Reagan ordered photo coverage of all the terrorist basis in the region. The French refused to allow us overfly, so our mission profile was to refuel off the south coast of England, a Mach 3 cruise leg down the coast of Portugal and Spain, left turn through the Straits of Gibraltar, refuel in the Western Mediterranean, right turn into Lebanon and fly right down main street Beirut, exit along the southern Mediterranean with another refueling over Malta, supersonic back out the straits, and return to England. As we entered Lebanon’s airspace my Recon Systems Officer in the rear cockpit informed me that our defensive systems display showed we were being tracked by that SA-5. About 15 seconds later we got a warning of active guidance signals from the SA-5 site. We couldn’t tell whether there was an actual launch or the missile was still on the rails, but they were actively tracking us. We didn’t waste any time wondering, but climbed and pushed that throttle, and said a couple of “Hail Kellys.” We completed our pass over Beirut and turned toward Malta, when I got a warning low-oil-pressure light on my right engine. Even though the engine was running fine I slowed down and lowered our altitude and made a direct line for England. We decided to cross France without clearance instead of going the roundabout way. ‘We made it almost across, when I looked out the left window and saw a French Mirage III sitting ten feet off my left wing. He came up on our frequency and asked us for our Diplomatic Clearance Number. I had no idea what he was talking about, so I told him to stand by. I ask my backseater, who said, “Don’t worry about it. I just gave it to him.” What he had given him was “the bird” with his middle finger: I lit the afterburners and left that Mirage standing still. Two minutes later, we were crossing the Channel.’ Written by Dario Leone of aviation geekclub.

@unlimited_ls @grok why would anyone do this? Why not cremate properly? Is it expensive to burn a body to ashes?

@Thefactsdude I use to live a couple of streets away from Whitney and signal, we had to move as all of Frayser is a racetrack and crazy AF

NEW: 6-year-old boy fatally struck while playing with ball in Frayser street; driver arrested A 6-year-old boy was fatally struck Thursday afternoon on Signal Street and Whitney Avenue in Memphis’ Frayser neighborhood. The child was playing with a ball in the westbound lane of Whitney Avenue when Kenyunte W. Goss struck him with her Chrysler 200. Goss remained at the scene. Goss has been arrested and charged with driving on a suspended/revoked license and failure to provide proof of financial responsibility. She is being held on a $10,000 bond and is scheduled to appear in court Monday.

@SandyofCthulhu Well said!

My favorite thing about Freddy vs. Jason was that they actually had a winner, unlike so many “confrontation” movies. They had the balls to settle it, unlike Frankenstein vs the Wolfman or Zatoichi meets Yojimbo. Also the early plot in which the kids try to find out what the adults are covering up, only to realize the cover-up was purely good, and was starving Freddy of victims. That ruled.

@sciencegirl Rocking that rotary dial phone quickly! Thinking of what something might be listed in the yellow pages as!

those born before 2000, what's a small or once-common skill you have that hardly anyone uses today

@LeeMerrittesq Your an idiot. She is in the wrong, I never instinctively throw anything a cop hands me out the window period. I also don’t argue with a cop because he has discretion to handle it however and when you disrespect him expect this result. Dumb

This mother was traveling through Hurst with her 15-year-old son in the passenger seat when she was pulled over and accused of speeding. She planned to contest the claim in court but still provided her license, as required by law. She declined to take the paper receipt of the citation, protesting what she believed was racial profiling. The officer insisted—tossing the ticket toward her when she refused to take it from his hand. She instinctively tossed the paper out of the window. What happened next is an example of everything that is wrong with American policing. This officer had three clear options: 1.Issue a second citation for littering using the information he already had. 2.Walk away—the citation had already been issued. 3.Instead, he chose to snatch this mother out of her vehicle in front of her child, slam her to the ground, seriously injure her, and take her to jail… where she was ultimately issued a citation and then released to the hospital for treatment of the injuries caused during the arrest.

Anyone else?

i want to see something cool from your camera roll. not filtered faces. not recycled memes. i want your world. what you stop for. what you notice. just pictures you’ve actually taken… what you think is worth capturing. show me.

When I was a cop there I would shop at a army surplus store in west Memphis, old fella there use to joke about my town and employer. One day he says: do you know what the bridge is called? I said which one? He says doesn’t matter, they both are the longest bridges on the planet. They stretch down Arkansas all the way to Africa…..

A TN State Patrol officer I know told me, just before the Memphis operation began, that every trooper had to do tours of Memphis like they were shipping off to Iraq, they had to stay an hour away because their patrol cars kept getting broken into, and they’d constantly arrest the same guys on half a dozen felonies, a judge would release them without bail and/or drop the charges, and they’d do it all over again in a few weeks. Trump fixing that place is nothing short of miraculous.

@HansMahncke Insurance

They want you to believe that both these switches somehow changed position all by themselves, one right after the other, at the precise moment the Air India aircraft was at its most vulnerable. That story exists for one reason: to avoid admitting that this was pilot murder suicide. It is the same dynamic at work in the Malaysia Airlines, Silk Air and Egypt Air crashes. For reasons that are never stated openly, whether cultural, institutional, or otherwise, they resort to magical explanations or elaborate conspiracies rather than confront what is plainly in front of them. Curiously, the Germanwings crash stands as the exception. Perhaps that is because it involved a different culture, and so it was deemed acceptable to acknowledge the reality of pilot murder suicide, while in other cases the truth is treated as unspeakable.

@inhumandept_vp That’s cold

Our VP of Engineering handed in his resignation yesterday. He was polite. He said he found a 'once in a lifetime' opportunity at a startup. He wanted to leave on good terms because he's one of our early team members. I didn't panic. I didn't counter-offer. I just smiled and said, 'Once a team member, always a team member. You should join our Alumni Network.' He signed the Alumni membership form to keep his company laptop as a parting gift. We shook hands, he walked out feeling respected and valued. Here's what he didn't realize. In the from, there's a clause written in size 6 font. Clause 4, Section B: 'Crisis Activation.' Basically if our server uptime drops below 99.9%, or if our stock dips by 10%, we can legally conscript all Alumni members back into active duty immediately. If he doesn't show up, his stock options will be voided. It's part of the agreement he signed. To test things out, I’m planning a scheduled outage for next Tuesday around 2 AM. Welcome back, Dave.

@WAPolicyGreen Does this cover vets? Or white males?

The Washington state legislature will consider HB 2684 on Tuesday, which creates a definition of groups that are presumed to be "socially disadvantaged." Based on this list, roughly 70% of Washington state residents would be socially disadvantaged. #waleg
