Now that's what I call a sucker punch!
Day Octopuses (Octopus cyanea) are known to engage in collaborative hunting with fish. However, some species of fish will follow them around just to steal a free meal from the octopus. To deal with the thieving fish, the octopus will punch them.

I think what I resent the most is that all of us, especially the women who worked with him, were a part of his rehabilitation (at least image-wise) without us ever getting to choose if that was something we wanted to participate in.
He didn't let us or his audience make a choice.
How ironic.
I also believe in restorative justice but I don't think that means you get to become a pillar of a community and garner an audience and an income that relies solely on everyone including yourself staying silent about your actions.
In the VIDEO GAME SPHERE no less.
every time some 'race realist' prick brings up african IQs they're always talking about richard lynn's apartheid stats which were debunked at the time & debunked when the bell curve used them & have been debunked 100 times since. is there no limit on how many times that conversation needs to be held
You could get mad about dead senator discourse *or* you could enjoy this video of sea lions who have retaken an island with a decommissioned lighthouse off the coast of Oregon and now use the staircase as a giant slide.
I do find it kind of funny that most of the Bluesky complaining about the third Belgian goal is "why was the keeper so far upfield" which was like the one bit of competent US play in this entire sequence.
When utilized in literature review, LLMs consistently 1. fail to mention female authors in female-led literatures, 2. insist that men are more influential or more heavily cited when this is contradicted by objective citation counts, and 3. attribute women’s work to hallucinated male scholars.
If Hollywood is looking at old 4chan posts and social media shit to turn into a movie because of The Backrooms, can you please turn this glitch from Battlefield 1 into a movie, that would be cool thanks
apparently there's a mod to remove gay marriage in skyrim like bro you're literally the only person who gets married at all in the game and if you need a mod to prevent yourself from getting gay married that says something about you
it's easy to spend 5 seconds on "company bad"
maybe spend 15 minutes writing a letter, phoning a representative, donate to goodlaw project or trevor project
just you know, do something

Do not spend $250 USD on a Brandon Sanderson book. Do not spend two hundred and fifty dollars on a story that used to be available for free. Most importantly, don't give money to a tithe-paying Mormon.

The president who took us to a war nobody wanted (and is covering for powerful pedophiles) is now holding our government hostage until Congress passes a law that makes it easier for him to maintain power
Imagine if this were happening in another country
This is the kind of thing a rich CEO says at the beginning of a science fiction movie to establish for the audience that he is a sociopath and the villain.
SAM ALTMAN: “People talk about how much energy it takes to train an AI model … But it also takes a lot of energy to train a human. It takes like 20 years of life and all of the food you eat during that time before you get smart.”

And this, ladies and gentlemen, is the meritocracy they want you to believe Black people are violating
A C student coke fiend with no medical expertise runs our nation’s healthcare system.
The funny thing about a certain type of angry conspiracy guy is that they’re literally being confronted with an elite paedophile ring and a tyrannical government at the same time right now, and because it isn't being done by the people they wanted it to be done by they’re all being pussies about it
The Epstein emails should really end the debate over whether society should have billionaires. "Do you want there to be a class of people so powerful they can fuck your kids and no one will even try to do anything" seems like an easy sell if everyone in politics wasn't trying to get on their payroll
