A week ago on the radio, there was an interview broadcast where someone remarked "if dueling was legal, mass shooters and terrorists wouldn't be terrorizing, they'd be dueling" which led me down a rabbit hole which led me to wanting to make something out of it as it's now one of my fixations. Throughout history, though, it has come in many kinds, from guns to swords to jousting and, at one time, Canadian logrolling. What kind, real or fictional, is your favorite?

It's a form of coattail riding. It's no different from tracing.

Being able to swim.

Was recently driving a bunch of other girls to our university maintenance class after it had poured and we came to a part of the road where it descends into a depression before fully rising back up. That day the depression was flooded, making a lagoon. The back-up road would take us an extra 30 kilometers around, so after briefly stopping, I decided to rush forward and go through the water. Every last passenger started silently panicking (silently enough I didn't notice) and one threw up out of fear, and thinking it was car sickness, I stopped the vehicle, which made everyone panic more and try to "abandon ship" because they thought the vehicle was going down and need help because it was the areas beside the road which were actually deep. And here I am thinking "this place is as wet and flood-prone as Hurricane Harbor, what have you been doing all your life that you can't swim". If someone can't, why?

An admin banned the lead mod of Casual Conversation before doxxing her both on here and (whether or not by proxy) YouTube (with loads of misinformation mixed in since mixing slander with doxxing makes it awkward to report someone for one of those), as well as apparently Twitter too, and doing the equivalent of revenge ****, despite the fact another mod who just happened to be told to gang up on her and excuse themselves with similar reasons as him (because she mentioned people who were crying over Kamala Harris needing to win or failing to win were being drama queens and that the OP she was commenting on wasn't even true and thus broke the community's very rules on misinformation, which didn't matter to the person banning her as he sided with said misinformation which was enough for him) established that this was against the rules both on there and on ML, with the irony of her being allowed worse treatment than an actual Nazi by people who are not yet defederated escaping nobody, all because he didn't like the fact she pointed out how counterintuitive it was Kamala Harris appeals to both the LGBT and Islamic communities (since one persecutes the other).
