I mean, they should block dissemination of illegally acquired, nefarious material designed as political interference from foreign interests. Just like turfing the Hunter Biden laptop leak was ultimately the right choice. Although I suppose you could argue this is more into “whistleblower” territory and Hunter’s laptop was more “revenge porn”, so maybe this is more justifiable for not blocking?

I guess regardless of the result of that debate, it’s still clear hypocrisy from Elongated Muskrat - “Twitter Files” all about how suppressing Hunter’s laptop was bad and “against free speech”, but now he’s doing the same thing for “The Good Guys”. Typical.

Don’t worry, I already have no idea what mewing, mogging, skibidi, or Ohio mean. I’m already the old man yelling at clouds.

Agreed. We’ve lost a lot of ground to the barons of the new world, but the swell of support for unions is a light in the darkness. As much as I have bad things to say about our society, I’m happy we live somewhere where we can push back without going to jail.

“Based” is pre-zoomer (Gen Z/Alpha) gamer slang for “great”, with a slight connotation of oppositional greatness.

Original gamer use may include describing use of the N word for memes as “based” as its a counter-cultural thing that gamers saw as good. Nowadays it’s pretty “normie-core” and any time something upsets the status quo in a positive way that might make opposition upset, is based.

For example, Dark Brandon, a reimagining of the “let’s go Brandon” MAGA meme to be a progressive, anti-MAGA meme used as kind of a soft middle-finger to the right-wing internet, was incredibly based.

I think you misunderstood.

1. Shame we have so many horrid companies with so much power.
2. Biden’s admin is amazing because I’ve never seen so many pro-consumer cases get filed.

Medicine price negotiations, antitrust lawsuits, price gouging lawsuits, unfair fee lawsuits, etc. Biden admin FTC+DOJ have more teeth than I’ve ever seen.

I can’t remember a period of time with so many anti-trust and other consumer protection lawsuits from the FTC and DOJ.

Shame we got to this state, but Biden admin is deeply based.

They’re voting Jill Stein because Daddy Putin says vote splitting is a communist conspiracy

Mulaney then shared an anecdote about how he and his son, who is nearly 3, like to play baseball in their front yard.

“We’re just two guys hitting Wiffle balls badly and yelling ‘Good job’ at each other,” he said. “It’s sort of the same energy here at Dreamforce.”

LOL

Your link is wrong, it points to a piece on safe injection sites.

But about your text: they’re so desperate to prop up real estate values that they’ll run the budget into the ground with “government handouts” lol

Idk… lotta people on mics in pre/post-game lobbies in Splitgate for it to be bot matches

The mix is super cool! Today we took funicular > tram > bus > ferry for one trip, all for 62 lira (I think about 2 £)

I see you’re UK. I was in London last year and loved the Tube - I’m currently all over the İstanbul metro with my Underground pin on my bag!

That’s the one!

Funny, I’m looking at that streetcar basically right now!

The funicular in the Taksim tunnel is cooler imo

Not at all likely, and until then, is still 100% factually accurate.

That still leaves “rapist” as indisputably factually accurate.

I mean he has been proven in a court of law to be at least 2 of those, so… you know…

What’s wild to me is that legal segregation was like, not that long ago at all. It always feels like it’s taught as ancient history but it was only half a lifetime ago, really… and still ongoing. It’s not like this happened a thousand years ago and “you should really be over it by now”, this was the experience of some people’s still living grandparents and parents.

The idea that an entire demographic of people should magically recover and be equals again after like 30 years of half-assed “equality” after literal generations of slavery is fucking wild.

Absolute goblin energy to not recognize the ongoing effects of such a recent thing.

I know they’re paid for by Walmart/whoever, but they should get actual private security that doesn’t cost the taxpayer 300 grand to train and prepare for service. The police force can stop complaining about being understaffed too when they’re playing rentacop.

Congrats officer you caught a guy stealing 2 loaves of bread and a $10 rotisserie chicken. Mind going to arrest the guy who committed an assault 2 blocks away just now?

Yep - not u common in my shitass city these days for a couple cops to be posted at the doors of safeway, walmart, etc. full time. Me getting mugged by 5 tweakers in broad daylight? 8 hour response time. Homeless dude stealing bread to survive? Immediately arrested.

Meanwhile the police force complains that they need more money because they don’t have enough resources to do their jobs… full 1/3rd of our civic budget already. Totally fucking useless, unless you’re a big brand.

It doesn’t even make me mad, I’m just scared and confused
