  • Carney’s border bill is a gift to Trump—and a roadmap to ‘mass deportation’

    Jump

  • Tax the rich to pay for social service expansion like we always did successfully, resulting in everything good we have, until we decided not to because rich people are cool and will give you money if you help them get richer. everything else you said is hollow words and clumsily laid bait traps. Bye.

  • The NYT hates peaceful protest

    Jump

  • Expect this from corpo-slop. This is New America, where all legacy media bent to threats from a despot instead of doing their fucking jobs. They're complicit, and they should be standing next to this admin against the wall after the fallout.

  • Carney’s border bill is a gift to Trump—and a roadmap to ‘mass deportation’

    Jump

  • Everything preceeding the word 'but' is bullshit, every time. Let's be real, you're all for mass deportation of visible minorities, you don't care if they were born in this country or how much their family has contributed to its growth. You won't acknowledge that every one of us who isn't a born indigenous Canadian, had to migrate here and be given a chance to improve the country, which we did, every time. Now you want to pull up that ladder and assert that because they're not the same colour or culture as you are they should suffer and probably die actually. Some believe you should be deported for not being of Canadian spirit, and so will the regime you're dreaming about after they shove all the Canadians YOU don't like out. Time will come that you won't be loyal or Canadian enough for them, and you'll be sent to a camp or deported to CECOT, and be asking yourself 'how could this happen to me?', and you'll know... This is what I asked for.

    If you are self-aware and you're actually telling on yourself saying "yes, I want what they have, which is our own military terrorizing Canadians", then sincerely, get fucked, you don't belong here.

  • Terrifying

    Jump

  • Ah shit man, you eventually kinda get used to it. Life's really about enjoying and experiencing the moment you're in as best you can, as often as you can, as long as you're able. If you can manage that, you'll at least know you have savored those smudges in the rear-view. A piece of advice is to make sure you have devices to record and hold on to as much as you can, back things up always! Don't be afraid/surprised if going back and seeing something you though you had lost completely in those records makes you feel strongly emotional.

  • Me when people are cheering on Iran, a country that literally executes gay people

    Jump

  • So then what we have here is a conflict between unrepentant, even gleeful genociders, and a bigoted theocratic terrorist state... I mean. They're the same picture.

    You're trying to whatabout the unjustifiable barbarism of the Israeli state Zionists who are hell bent on tying practicing Jews and the diaspora to their psycopathic crimes against humanity. Whether you realize it or not.

  • YouTube relaxes moderation rules to allow more controversial content. Videos are allowed if "freedom of expression value may outweigh harm risk"

  • Introducing: Pay More, Say More

    Surely this can't become deeply problematic for the social fabric.

  • As 75 Democrats Vote to Praise ICE, Ilhan Omar Wants to Hold Police Accountable for Protest Abuses

    Jump

  • I think you misspellt "the paid opposition" which is really all anyone can justifiably call the Democrats given their recent behaviour and decisions, and there's no sign of learning or changing tactics cause they're paid no to by the same investors that paid the other fucking side. Capital is the enemy here, it has no allegiance but to itself, and it has wrestled the political body away from the voting public, due in no small part to class turncoats in government lobbying in the open. There is no room for partisans if any remnant of America as we know it is to be saved, anyone picking sides has chosen the wrong one already, there's only the side of the people.

  • Newsom brands Trump a ‘dictator’ after National Guard deployed

  • Duolingo’s AI Update is Quietly Ruining Everything

    Jump

  • Replace these vulture CEOs with AI and the only use it for recommendations. Profit margins will rise when you aren't wasting them on golden parachutes and some fuckwit's next yacht. This will only continue as long as one socially inept and willfully ignorant is pulling lever at the top, making decision based on their experience being complete detached from 99% of the rest of humanity.

  • Borderlands 2 is temporarily free to grab on Steam, as it continues to be review bombed for non-Randy Pitchford tweet reasons

    Jump

  • this is 50% factual in that coop is 100% the reason for the game franchise existing and succeeding. BL2 is pretty much the peak of the series too IMO, this is such a weird and dumb move by Gearbox, just trying to profit off useful hype for BL4, reminding people what it might be like in a timely manner is profit enough on release, but they wanna act like we don't know what they're doing. I can't tell if this is to kneecap the fanbase's expectation of good multiplayer ahead of time, or what. Let's just say I'm skeptical they're giving away a janky version of BL2 because they're extremely confident their new release will do well, pretty revealing to me.

  • Who here cries at TV shows or movies?

    Jump

  • Shoutout to this LIST! 100% certain I've been unable to contain my emotions watching all of these. To me that's a marker for quality, so props on your good taste!

  • Who here cries at TV shows or movies?

    Jump

  • Hey fellow 41 year old dude, I also cry at this stuff. It seems especially pronounced when rewatching nostalgic productions with well written characters and conflict (I will not apologize for crying all the time during Avatar the last Airbender, as an adult man). No, I do not know what this means in regard to healthy emotional processing, it just is what it is. Mind you I also get unjustifiably angry or emotional in other contexts when I feel connected to the fate of a character and they experience injustice. So this might be a general marker for some level of empathy or maybe just emotional mimicry. Thanks for posting, I think this is something people should be okay talking about more.

    Edit: I wanted to add this also occurs in other mediums, like video games. Cyberpunk 2077 was like a revolution in awareness for me, but largely because I experience DID to a degree in my life, and it really flipped the table of my understanding of myself seeing what I experience through the eyes of others.

  • Ukraine deliberately blindsided Trump before massive drone attack on Russia

    Jump

  • And the operation turned out to be a complete success! Looks like a good strategy going forward.

    Not one person on this entire site can tell me anyone should trust tRump in ANY situation, let alone one where he has leverage over you and interest in... your stuff. Expect more of this by the way; turns out when you're a constant asshole to everyone, nobody wants to be around you or rely on you, let alone offer to extend help in your direction. I'm honestly baffled what people fucking expected, only brainrotted simps believe in the real adult world, on the global stage, you can twist everyone's arms to get your way without consequence forever. And only tRump can't see this cause that's been his ENTIRE life: No consequences ever for being the absolute worst person regarding character and conduct.

  • Cherry picking level over 9000

  • Read it again.

  • Let my Duolingo streak expire cos I don't want to give them any more AI training for free and this popped up 🙄

    Jump

  • Man I love to see that abusive Owl grovel. I also did this, good on you OP, may they see a consequence for threatening something good for the sake of greed. Eventually nothing is enough for the managers and they burn the whole thing down because of their personal addiction. This harms lives. We need to jail CEOs abusing power this way, that's the actual remedy.

  • Kid gave a reasonable answer without all the math bullshit

    Jump

  • My point is the question is terrible, and one might as well answer however they like. It's a basic logic test dressed up in fractions, the only answer is one pizza is bigger, but that's apparently wrong, so you HAVE to be creative in describing how to solve the logical problem. Does this help you?

  • Kid gave a reasonable answer without all the math bullshit

    Jump

  • it's fairly clear there are two pizzas, but as to 'how' someone eats more than someone else... this is not really a simple math question, there are too many unknown variables. Maybe one has Bulemia, maybe one of them is 6'9" and has a much bigger appetite. Maybe one of the people has a congenital deformity resulting in two mouths... This question is not a math question, it's an exercise in creativity.

  • Tom Morello Joins Bruce Springsteen and Harvard in Trump Standoff: 'F-ck That Guy'

    Jump

  • Based Morello knows a thing or two about fascist evil empires.

  • problem is not Netanyahu, it is not Ben Gvir. it is the white supremacist mindset of Israeli public.

    Jump

  • It can be, and in fact is, more than one thing. In fact, all of these are even related closely. Wouldn't want people to mistakenly think your goal is to direct attention away from those who are most directly culpable for action when it comes to Genocide, that'd be... weird, right?
