  • Would be great, but feels unlikely, most of the gains they're making rely on the lack of versatility.

  • Thousands of Onlyfans girls crying out in terror. Hopefully there's an opt out, but I don't see how that would make sense for Amazon.

    Someone is going to make some money with a packaging forwarding business catering to that market.

  • The scope of the data is not perfect, but RSF is probably the best option we have right now:

    They've shared data on disappearances too in their annual reports, but not sure if they have anything 'live' there.

    They release a yearly report too, the top contenders are usually no surprise as you did expect. For last year, Israel was on top followed by Mexico for journalist killings, with Sudan trailing way behind. China is at the top for putting journalists in prison and there's no danger at all of them losing the first place spot, with Russia coming in second, but then gets kinda surprising with Myanmar pushing really hard to get that #2 spot.

    Was searching for better data and just found this, you won't like it, but you'll appreciate the data: https://www.unesco.org/en/safety-journalists/observatory/statistics

  • Has to suck to have been consistently working for decades and still being known almost entirely for a supporting role you did 40 years ago. Dude even got recast for the sequel.

    I'm not trying to tie that to the battery charge or trying to excuse him for that, just kind of a rough go for Crispin's acting career.

  • So, you can actually use cows as a compass to a point.

    Cows pretty consistently tend to align themselves on a north-south axis when resting. I don't believe anyone has ever figured out why.

  • I looked him up a bit, not enough out there about his early life for me to definitively say it was his birth name, but looks like it's likely at least his real legal name at the moment.

    Nominative Determinism strikes again.

  • Is this even technically illegal? They've done so much to separate themselves from being classified as what they should be classified as that... Insider trading involves corporations and securities, so like what laws are they actually breaking on paper?

  • Ghost sharks, they could have been anywhere when they were alive.

  • I don't entirely disagree, but I kinda feel like broad acceptance doesn't necessarily equate to popularity. It's like, yeah, I wouldn't mind listening to Bad Bunny, but I'm also super unlikely to put it on myself you know?

  • Mr Beast chooses to do his charity through the medium of sociopathic reality tv games.

    It is weird when you notice that every game he sets up eventually boils down to either 'Betray your friends' or 'Sacrifice your dignity'. Not entirely uncommon in the game show world obviously, but I feel like you at least get some variety elsewhere.

  • I'm speaking from experience, im that guy who said you might have to get out every root. Maybe we were special or maybe it was just the right environment but I started finding it in random patches coming up all over my old back yard. We tried digging it out, burning it, someone suggested tar, but nothing ever quite got ours. I wasn't alone, but I was probably talking to other people who had it bad too. No one complains if everything is fine.

    I'm in a new house now, but never again for me.

  • It can be a bit variable with Islam, but depending on what you follow there's maybe an exemption from having to fast during Ramadan if your well-being is just generally at risk from doing so. There are also several groups that are exempted (Sick, Pregnant, too young, too old, etc), but don't think any of them apply here.

  • Yeah, we've already firmly established that the majority of the US still doesn't care about these countries. I doubt it'll be more than a blip.

  • Was going to say nearly the same. We're conditioned to always fabricate a guise of confidence and the body language you give off 'scanning the periphery' comes off as the opposite of that.

  • If you haven't had bamboo before, can also spread unpredictably and it's more difficult to get rid of than you expect. The varieties that tend to grow smaller are worse.

  • It's happened in the past, but believe the government has to agree to be sued.

  • I kind of feel like it's more the Epstein Files.

    We may have hit the point where war with Iran is more likely to be another distraction.

  • West Virginia is a truly amazing place to visit, just real rough to live there. Honestly, the two are kinda connected, the lack of people and development is really the biggest draw.

  • Back around... 2020 or so we had a release of files that were basically 'There are some weird flying things and we have no clue what they were'. After that we had that some coverage a few years back confirming that all of that led to 'No definite evidence of aliens' but I feel like I remember just last year we had a congressional hearing with some guy who worked for the DoD saying Aliens did exist and we had captured some of those UAPs. However, then again... I do think said guy who was most vocal on those hearings had a book he was trying real hard to sell.

    Who wants to take the bet that Trump is going to take a financial interest in some guy selling books on this and prop him up as 'the' expert.
