 A few observations from a former
 bomb disposal officer G.e. Me)
 1. Proper pipe bombs don't have
 wires connected to both ends.

 2. You can find timers/ remote
 control receivers WAY smaller than
 whatever that white box is. A proper
 timer would best be stored inside the
 pipe, making it fully encapsulated
 I hat thing is just silly looking

 3. Bottom Line: Whoever made that
 wanted it to be painfully obvious
 to anyone and everyone that it's
 a "bomb."
 This is nearly the same as a bundle
 of road flares wrapped together
 with an old-timey alarm clock
 ticking away.

 4, "Hoax Devices" are FAR more
 common than real ones. In which
 case, we should ask ourselves what
 the motives of the "bomber" are and
 "who benefits?"
 Go ahead. Think deeply and critically.

the golden rule: if the media pushes something, be very skeptical.
If MSM is pushing it, I promise you it’s total BS. If it were Republicans receiving these “bombs” you wouldn’t hear anything about it. 

Guess you’ve not seen the news. Press conferences. Arrest was made. It was legit. Not hoax devices and not a false flag. And if you don’t think the MSM would cover Republicans getting bombs in the mail you’re insane. Even if they hate republicans they’ll cover that for ratings. Money talks 

the media is nothing more than a left wing propaganda machine. they report narratives, not facts

So is Fox News a right wing propaganda machine they reports narratives, not facts? If the media reports something you want to be true, do you think it’s equally Fake News? Also I’m not basing anything off the media, but the press conference that the FBI and Attorney General made noting the arrest and status of the devices. Then a basic search of the subject (Cesar Sayoc) gives you a trove of information https://www.fbi.gov/news/pressrel/press-releases/fbi-director-christopher-wrays-remarks-regarding-arrest-of-cesar-sayoc-in-suspicious-package-investigationFBI Director Christopher Wray’s Remarks Regarding Arrest of Cesar Sayoc in Suspicious Package InvestigationSourcing of all media is a good idea. Check and double check. But if you go down the rabbit hole of actual distrust and embracing conspiracy theories you’re lost. 

Weird how the FBI was able to get this guy so quick, yet missed the Parkland shooter, despite years of reports…

DNA and fingerprints. If you’re in the system and you’ve committed a national crime, it’ll be over quick. He left evidence 

Even though I’m in the system (USN), it took them two weeks to run a background check on me when I applied for an airport job, but they nabbed this guy in less than 48 hours? I find that suspicious af.

Dude. Your background check  act of domestic terrorism that’s targeting politicians and media all over the news in an election year. If you find that suspicious I don’t know what to tell you. What’s the alternative? A conspiracy involving hundreds of FBI agents and techs, local and state law enforcement, postal service, and media? Are you serious? 

You don’t need all that when folks don’t question and just obey because they’re “taking care of the bad guys.” All you need are a few rotten apples at the top.But, none of those packages went through the mail. That’s given away by the lack of postal cancellation, as well as not enough postage.Otherwise, the timing is what I call suspicious. Hostage situations have taken longer. Hell, since you brought up domestic terrorism, it took them longer to find McVeigh and Kazinski (sp?) than this guy.

Even assuming it is the right guy, do we know who he really is? If he was capable of organizing something like this by himself? If he working alone? If he isn’t the face of a larger scheme? It wouldn’t be the first time the “ lone wolf” angle being pushed by the media looked a little suspicious.As an aside, I love it when people get into pointless arguments about CNN vs Fox News and which one is “less biased“, as though they aren’t both owned by the same sort of people and used to pump out varying levels of propaganda for controlled opposition.

Damn he came for their lives 😂
Holy shit I just witnessed Colin murder the entire movie industry. 

I just saw a new episode of Who’s Line is it Anyway? in which other cast members made a transphobic joke where the punchline was “that woman has a penis.” Colin, who has a trans daughter, stood there and just repeatedly said “Really?” Until they apologized and redid their joke. Very small thing, but I appreciate the man.

Colin is sunshine.

And to think, I didn’t believe Colin Mochrie could earn more respect from me.
You have to understand. Improv comedy has rules you follow. And rule number one, the Golden Rule: NEVER CONTRADICT. You never take what someone suggests and say “no, not that, this instead!” You never reply to a joke with “No, I don’t want to do that!” You roll with it. You ALWAYS roll with it. The ridiculousness added on top of ridiculousness peaks into a primo superdense ball of hilarity incarnate.
And his reply to something offensive was “Nope. Stop the bit. Nope. Nope. Nope. You fucked up.”
I’ll bet you money Wayne Brady would do the same if a white person on the show dropped an N-Bomb, and people would be understanding. Colin stood up for an oft-maligned group, whose members include one very personal to him, and completely ground that show to a grinding halt by saying “No. That’s not fucking funny.” and ruined the joke. This is a man who builds his entire career off of making jokes, and he /ruined another’s/.
I’m sorry, Colin isn’t just a god amongst improv comics. He’s not just funny as all get-out and witty as hell. He’s a stone-cold badass, and he deserves recognition.
Props, Mr. Mochrie. You, sir, are deserving of respect.

I’ve worked with him (just briefly) and can confirm: he is just as excellent in real life as he seems here.

    The Golden Rule: THE BEST THINGS TO
 REMEMBER
 when writing a highly emotional
 scene
 Show, don't tell; it's the golden rule of writing. I get it, you hear it
 everywhere you turn, and by now (even if you don't totally get it),
 you've become desensitized to the mantra. It's actually a pretty
 hard thing to master. Believe or not, all writers struggle to show,
 but I hope this lesson will help you out!
 NO EMOTION WORDS
 USE ACTION
 No, your character isn't sad, happy,
 devastated, in pain, angry, nervous,
 scared, or worried. Don't use words
 like this that describe emotions
 They cut down on the hit of your
 scene, and they're harder for readers
 to connect to/get emotional over
 Instead of being angry, your
 character is screaming, has their
 fists tightly clenched, and is
 trembling. See what I did? I took the
 emotion, thought of how to show it,
 and used that instead. It adds a little
 oomph, and it's more sensory for
 your reader
 USE SETTING
 USE PERCEPTIONS
 I dig this one. Your character is sad?
 No, your character is suddenly
 seeing their lover not as their lover,
 but something they just lost in
 battle. Their perception of what that
 person is changed. Love turns to
 loss, smiling turns to tears. Nothing
 is the same after the emotional
 action hits
 Your character is happy? Yeah, no
 they're not. Your character is
 noticing the tiniest, most delicate
 things about their new car that are,
 in all honesty, kind of weird to notice
 on just a normal car. When you love
 something, you notice more. When it
 makes you sad, you try to close it
 out. See?
 GO OUT OF BOUNDS
 High emotion often means lovw
 ability to think things through. It's
 okay to make your character wander
 from their borders during highly
 emotional moments. Make themm
 kick, scream, kiss harder, throw
 stuff, break down sobbing, knock
 out some teeth. I promise, it's okay!
 You're not out of bounds!
 USE DIALOGUE
 Angry? You'll say things you really
 don't mean. Sad? You'll hide the
 truth. Happy? You'll confess. Use
 these human faults to vour
 advantage. Alter your character's
 dialogue, word choice, and ability to
 open up during highly emotional
 scenes to portray what they feel
 through their words!
 PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE!
 This is not easy to master. It seems simple, but it can be frustrating
 time consuming, and confusing. Take some time to sit and make
 lists. Scour your piece for emotion words, and replace them with
 other representations of that emotion. Get a little frustrated! It's okay
 to have to practice this, and if you do regularly and the right way, you
 will get better. It just takes time.
