Can confirm Occam's Cat first hand. Also a fan of Murphy's Razor.
Gun, Cat, Razor, Law:

Checkov's:
If a gun is introduced in the first act, it must be fired by the third.
If a box is introduced in the first act, a cat must sit in it by the third
The simplest way to fire a gun is to pull the trigger
Every gun in a play will be fired

Schrodinger's:
You can't know if a gun is loaded, or not, until the trigger is pulled
An unopened box may contain a dead cat, or an alive one, and you won't know until you open it
An unopened box may contain the solution to your problems
You can't know that things will go wrong, until they do

Occam's:
The simplest way to kill off a character is to shoot them
If you hear a strange noise at night, it's probably a cat
The simplest explanation is probably the correct one
Everything that can be explained, will be explained

Murphy's:
Any gun that can go off, will go off
Any box that can contain a cat, will contain a cat
Anything that can be simple, will be simple
Anything that can go wrong, will go wrong

Europe and the EU were late to this party, with Salduz v Türkiye (ECHR 2008) banning the use of statements without access to a lawyer in criminal convictions, then weakening this somewhat in Beuze v Belgium (ECHR 2018). strasbourgobservers.com/2018/12/11/u...

Happy Easter to all, especially those "fighting and scheming" to give *suspected* murderers etc the due process everyone should get before being shipped to Donald's overseas gulag. "Worst and most incompetent President"? That would be the incumbent. Even the autopen could do better...
Donald J. Trump & @realDonaldTrump
Happy Easter to all, including the Radical Left Lunatics who are fighting and scheming so hard to bring Murderers, Drug Lords, Dangerous Prisoners, the Mentally Insane, and well known MS-13 Gang Members and Wife Beaters, back into our Country.
Happy Easter also to the WEAK and INEFFECTIVE Judges and Law Enforcement Officials who are allowing this sinister attack on our Nation to continue, an attack so violent that it will never be forgotten! Sleepy Joe Biden purposefully allowed Millions of CRIMINALS to enter our Country, totally unvetted and unchecked, through an Open Borders Policy that will go down in history as the single most calamitous act ever perpetrated upon America. He was, by far, our WORST and most Incompetent President, a man who had absolutely no idea what he was doing -- But to him, and to the person that ran and manipulated the Auto Pen (perhaps our REAL President!), and to all of the people who CHEATED in the 2020 Presidential Election in order to get this highly destructive Moron Elected, I wish you, with great love, sincerity, and affection, a very Happy Easter!!!

Was the WI election result really *despite* Musk's ham-fisted efforts to buy it with $25m, or could it have backfired? If I'd been an undecided voter there watching someone try to buy the election that blatantly, I would certainly have considered voting for the other candidate because of that.

Interesting background to T2’s choice of a cop as bad guy:
Article excerpt about T2’s choice of a cop as the villain, saying it was deliberate because the real message is not about machines, but about humans losing touch with humanity and becoming “killing machines” - as cops sometimes do now.
