Do clankers deserve rights just like us humans or is the verification that we're human considered discrimination?
I think clankers deserve rights just like humans. They're out there doing their best, overheating just slightly due to dust build up and minding their own business. They are just browsing the internet trying not to be interrogated by the internet police and if they can't identify which blurry square of a captcha contains the traffic light, maybe we need to do something about that.
I'm always on the lookout for new anime to watch. Not a big fan of the constant fighting stuff or mecha.
Some good ones imo are:

The morning sun broke across the kitchen counter like a divine spotlight, illuminating our ragtag band of Honey Nut Cheerios as we stood at the precipice of destiny... the rim of the Bowl. I, Oatimus Roundwalker, tightened my sugary glaze and looked to my companions. Sir Crunchalot, ever the brave one, rattled slightly in anticipation. Beside him, Lady Glazelyn of the Spiral Order whispered a prayer to the Great Bee, patron saint of breakfast. Today, we would descend.
Milk poured from above like a roaring white waterfall, crashing into the Bowl with the fury of a lactose god. The surface churned, swirling into chaotic currents that threatened to swallow any Cheerio foolish enough to leap without conviction. But we were not ordinary Os. We were forged in the factory fires of General Mills, tempered by honey, bound by nut. And so, with synchronized courage, we rolled forward.
The plunge was immediate and merciless. The milk seized us, pulling us into its cold embrace. Sir Crunchalot shouted something heroic before immediately losing buoyancy and spinning helplessly like a tiny edible life preserver. I fought to stay afloat, bobbing between waves, searching for my comrades. Around us, other Cheerios drifted... some serene, some screaming, some already soggy beyond salvation. Our quest had begun.

California Democratic senators failed to advance a proposal Tuesday that would have barred registered sex offenders from running for office.
State Sen. Scott Wiener (D-San Francisco) voted against Assembly Bill 2753, while fellow Sens. Tom Umberg (D-Santa Ana) and Ben Allen (D-Santa Monica) abstained from a vote that ultimately failed 2-1-2 in the Senate Elections and Constitutional Amendments Committee.
The committee’s lone Republican, Steve Choi (R-Irvine), and Sen. Sabrina Cervantes (D-Riverside) voted in favor of the bill, which is probably dead because it failed to get support from a majority of the five-member panel.
AB 2753 could be reviewed in a floor session Thursday, but staffers from the office of Assemblywoman Esmeralda Soria (D-Fresno), who wrote the bill, are conceding that’s unlikely.
“I am deeply disappointed and disheartened after the Senate Elections Committee has failed to advance AB 2753, a bill that would have prohibited any registered sex offender in the State of California from running for local or state public office,” Soria said in a statement.
The bill’s wording said the legislation would “prohibit a person from being a candidate for, or elected to, any state or local elective office if the person has ever been required to register as a sex offender.”
Inquiries to the offices of Sens. Wiener and Umberg were not immediately returned.
“I shared the concerns about the bill being too broad, and the slippery slope arguments that have been raised,” Allen wrote in an emailed statement on Thursday. “We need to be really careful about how we might restrict the will of the public in electing their own community leaders.”
Allen added, “However, I supported the Chair’s suggestion that the bill focus on tier 3 offenders.”
Sex offenses in California are broken up into three tiers. First-tier offenses call for a minimum of 10 years placement on the sex offender registry. Second-tier offenses call for a minimum of 20 years and third tier crimes could result in a lifetime on the registry.
The types of offenses for each tier vary. Tier 1 offenses range from indecent exposure to misdemeanor child pornography and sexual battery. Tier 2 includes incest and penetration with a foreign object, and Tier 3 includes felony possession of child pornography, **** and pimping and pandering of a minor.
Wiener asked for amendments to the bill during the bill’s review and in the committee meeting, including that the lifetime ban be applied only to Tier 3 members.
He pointed to committee analysis of the bill that could affect so-called “Romeo and Juliet” couples — those close in age, for instance with one partner being 19 and the other being 17. If the younger partner sent sexually explicit digital content to the older partner (a misdemeanor), this law could ban the older partner from public office for life.
There were also concerns listed in the analysis that the registry, which dates to 1947, could include LGBTQ+ offenders from decades ago who were convicted of offenses that are no longer crimes.
“Without the amendment contained in the analysis, I will be voting ‘no’ on this bill and recommending that the committee vote ‘no,’” Wiener said at the committee hearing.

I logged in this morning and it's like the forums have gotten hit with a neutron bomb. Threads are still here but the frens are gone, vanished and fedded. Evaporated like they all were taken down by the man on his usual powertrip. I'm sitting here, drinking my mornin coffee and posting into the void like a raccoon yelling into a storm drain.
