I’m glad the prosecutor in charge of prosecuting treason and a coup decided to spend his time and political capital solving a cool procedural puzzle. I’m sure nobody will be smart enough to see he took a legitimate question and acted disproportionately.
I think he relished having his hands tied so they wouldn’t have to get dirty. Because getting your hands dirty means silver shirts will threaten or harm your family.

Sorry I prefer a more syndicalist political lifestyle where we are the government. “The people should not be afraid of the people, the people should be afraid of the people.” breaks my brain.
Epstein appears trustworthy on this, for I agree with what he is saying.
If he were saying something I disagree with, I would point out that he’s very untrustworthy.
Look at the sports with systemic ad presence vs sports where it’s all “grass roots.” (The grass roots ones are mostly gone.)
Most top sports are incredibly expensive to keep running and the ones that become infested with ads are the ones that stick around for us to enjoy. If you follow less popular sports you’ll consider yourself lucky to bring in ads and sponsors.
Just curious, has everyone caught up yet? As in, have we realized and internalized that religious people don’t believe in god or heaven or anything like that?
Because just look at at-risk individuals and think about how certain contexts can shape numerous people.
Look at trauma and how it affects the psyche.
Look at how humans living in extraordinary environments radically change their behavior.
And then notice how you can’t detect any “god” or “afterlife” in a Christians psyche, or their behavior, or their flock. Just people acting similarly to everyone else, except we don’t pretend to have “the answer to life is god” and “being bad means burning in hell for infinity.” It’s so god damn obvious but to be fair it took around 30 years for me to “grok” that Christians are operating entirely on aesthetics.
Yes but government is ultimately good and does much good. Our politicians are mostly good (there’s 500,000+) because it’s people like us standing up to work policy. The idea that our government is innately bad and that it’s just bad people doing bad things is so tiring.
I can barely run steam and the games I bought on steam at the same time, which is required for most games. Steam disabled certain features and bloated the software – their launcher takes more resources than actual games. AAA games. (From a decade ago, but still.)
Other launchers might be garbage but the bar seems to be pretty low. Only thing anyone can say is “get a better computer” because in their mind that is a great rebuttal to “why is a game tied to a launcher which takes up 4x as many resources as my entire OS?”
Musk pulled his dick out in front of that woman (aka his employee) and tried to pay her for sex. Offered her a horse. Ended up with his company paying her $250,000.
Musk had that bizarre moment where he called someone a pedophile for turning down a PR stunt. He has ties to Epstein. He cozies up to Trump.
He’s a sex offender / sexual predator. He wasn’t convicted – he’s the richest man in the country paying a quarter of a million to keep people quiet.
It’s going to come out that he’s been raping kids and it’s going to be so obvious so many signs everyone knew blah blah blah.
We’re dealing with people who think the best way to send a message is to hurt more people and destroy democratic institutions.
They watched the Titanic and thought the people losing their shit and dragging everyone down with them was a good play in a crisis.
At least if the ship goes down the rich quarters will be below water too! That way they’ll learn to treat us better next time.
Yeah Mormons don’t drink if other Mormons would find out. He’s drinking wine at home not in public.
If it’s anything like the places I work, they specifically tell you to be very careful about what you wash away.
I like the wasps around my house, they’re Apache wasps I think. I’ve shooed them away, worked next to them, they just watch me or fly around. Seems I need to really try to anger them.
Mud daubers are cool too but their life cycle is nightmare fuel, I feel for the spiders.
My favorite part of Transformers was when my government had the script changed to include Marines being heroic in a movie about giant alien robots. We really needed good PR after that whole Afghanistan and Iraq thing.
By the end of the article they’ve framed much of this as being pro-Hamas / anti-Israel when a collaborative encyclopedia was seemingly worried about appearing neutral.
There’s enough there to have a good argument about sources and consistent wording but the article keeps highlighting people who think it’s purely political and even that people probably didn’t read the issue, they just wanted to be pro or anti Israel.
There’s still a lot of people who call this a genocide because they feel / think it’s a genocide, not because they’re on a side. Having consistent wording is important because you should be able to speak the truth and still feel whatever you felt… it’s not about hating Israel. I guess the beginning of the article sort of captures that mindset.
No problem, I probably shouldn’t immediately use such a weighty topic when I was just trying to be ridiculous to make fun of ridiculousness.
I was replying to someone who said “just goes to show that most innocent people police kill aren’t innocent” or whatever. Because it’s very useful to point out that people did a bad thing when police execute them on the street.
I’m being sarcastic by the way.
Kind of like how most children who are violently beaten by their owners/parents did something wrong. Yes it’s illegal, and it’s over the top, but it’s very useful to point out that beaten children have probably done something bad. It’s so useful, it really informs my judgement.

Ah yes, economic anxiety. That’s why racism and misogyny.
