    In support I say we should make a national registry of 6 ft deep holes with no logs and the ability just to remove one of the holes with a click. We don’t know how they get there, we don’t know how they go away…

    Women terrify me. It’s not a modern thing either. I was cuddling with my grandmother while she was watching Murder She Wrote and Matlock decades ago. Could probably have disappeared my grandfather in a heartbeat if she finally had enough of his bullshit.

    You’re always gonna have problems lifting a body in one piece. Apparently the best thing to do is cut up a corpse into six pieces and pile it all together. And when you got your six pieces, you gotta get rid of them, because it’s no good leaving it in the deep freeze for your mum to discover, now is it?

    Then I hear the best thing to do is feed them to pigs. You got to starve the pigs for a few days, then the sight of a chopped-up body will look like curry to a pisshead. You gotta shave the heads of your victims, and pull the teeth out for the sake of the piggies’ digestion. You could do this afterwards, of course, but you don’t want to go sievin’ through pig shit, now do you?

    They will go through bone like butter. You need at least sixteen pigs to finish the job in one sitting, so be wary of any man who keeps a pig farm. They will go through a body that weighs 200 pounds in about eight minutes. That means that a single pig can consume two pounds of uncooked flesh every minute. Hence the expression, “as greedy as a pig”.

    You don’t even have to do much work. A naked body in a ditch in the middle of rocky desert terrain will get picked clean by animals (vultures, coyotes, etc) quickly. A naked body in gator infested swamps…well, enough said. A naked body in a cheap, metal, weighed down dog kennel and dropped at sea will get picked clean in no time and the kennel will corrode a d disintegrate soon after. The hard part is always moving the body unnoticed.

    I just bothered to look up “truecrime” for the first time. But I’m still confused. What’s the difference between “truecrime” and just “crime documentary”?

      True crime is not far off from crime documentary. If anything I could see people arguing they’re the same and it would really just come down to semantics.

      To me, a " crime documentary" is a show or episode covering a specific crime or suspect. A True Crime podcast (or show, vlog, etc.) tends to cover a new crime or suspect each episode.

      If anything, I would argue True Crime shows are a series of mini-documentaries so-to-speak.

      Another thing to consider would be production value. When I hear “Documentary” I think of something I would see on TV or a streaming service. In other words I think of something backed by money.

      When I hear “True Crime” I think of podcasts or vloggers. Typically a person or small group of people doing their own research and producing their own content.

      A True crime podcast I’d recommend would be Small Town Murder. My wife will listen to it as we’re doing chores around the house and I would catch myself paying attention from time to time.

        The Last Podcast On The Left is the true crime podcast that got me listening to podcasts in general. They’ve got like 10 years worth of backlog and they’re still going strong, I love those boys. Hail yourselves!

      True crime means what it says. It’s crime that happened as opposed to fictional crime. In this context it usually means things like podcasts about true crime. It’s only different in that it’s a larger umbrella than just documentaries.

      Edit: Fix contradictory typo

    Lye is much more effective with a little heat.

    In unrelated random thoughts, NurdRage and Nile Red are some of my favorite YT’bers

    Muriatic is like a pseudonym for hydrochloric. If you see liquid drain cleaner bottled in a second plastic bag on the shelf of a local hardware store, that is probably sulfuric acid and is much stronger than most other stuff. That’s useful for lots of things like a few steps away from dissolving gold or epoxy. The combo or bulk may raise some eyebrows. I like to dissolve epoxy chip packaging to view the silicon die and etch the metal layers off… for example.

      Drain cleaner is NaOH (lye).

      Sulfuric is sold as battery acid for refilling lead acid batteries.

      Muriatic is HCl sold as concrete cleaner.

      Nitric is hard to buy, but there are some guides on making it.

        Label is very faded but just one example:

        I’ve never seen it in a big box store, but small mom and pops type hardware stores here in California have had it around. It seems to be part of a small distribution network and comes from Mexico.

          Nuts. Never seen H2SO4 used for drains. They don’t call it “oil of vitriol” for nothing. You can actually test a distillation of pure sulfuric because a drop will burn through a paper towel in seconds.

      Drain cleaner can also be lye based, or a mix of potassium hydroxide and sodium hydroxide. Also, every container should have its actual ingredients on the bottle, I wouldn’t assume anything you intend on using off label.

        I wonder how that will impact those girls as they get older and start entering politics. Will it push them further left? Will they feel disparaged sooner and give up on politics sooner?

        And same for the boys. By saying such dumb things so publicly at such a young age, will they face repercussions from their peers and get inoculated against manoshere-type-misogyny? Or will those beliefs become more ingrained in them and become a core piece of their identity?

          Honestly, it will probably do little or nothing. A lot of adolescent boys make a habit of saying whatever they think is shocking and will get a reaction, and kids that age in general try ideas on like they’re changing clothes. It’s just generally not going to “stick” in the way you think. Once the next shocking thing comes along they’ll drop it and probably never think of it again until it’s 2040 and they think back about what idiots they were as kids.

          Although in the era of social media, they may never get the chance to do so.

      yes. I’m not sure how unironically it’s meant but it doesn’t matter when you have a group of boys yelling “hawk tuah” and “your body, my choice” at a 12 year old girl. I’ve got boys so they have been insulated but my best friend has girls and he’s getting unbelievably pissed off.

      I don’t think censorship has ever worked. We should make a deal about it, expose the Nazis, and knee them in the nuts.
