  • How many PhDs does the world need? Doctoral graduates vastly outnumber jobs in academia

    Jump

  • That’s all swell but you know what?

    It isn’t about what the world needs.

    If you have the desire, ability and opportunity to get a PhD in accounting then that’s what you should do.

    Everything else is equivalent to someone telling you that, “the world needs ditch diggers, too.”.

    Fuck people like that. Let them forgo their passion in life, not you.

  • RFK Jr. Wants Every American to Be Sporting a Wearable Within Four Years

    Jump

  • RFK jr’s wants, needs, desire to continue breathing move me not at all.

    He can fuck off.

    If we had a science-backing and non-Nazi government who I had any belief in their ability and will to keep our data safe, this might be really cool. When I first got an Apple Watch and saw all the ways it benefits me I honestly wished everyone had one by default.

    Instead, something like this would simply be used to further control people especially women since it can track monthly cycles (to my knowledge at least.)

  • Even if you live in the U.S., you don't have to drive an F-250 truck to McDonald's. American car-centric cities now have neighborhoods where you can walk

    Jump

  • There’s nothing stopping you (except money)

    Just be rich everybody, then you can afford to live in a nice walkable neighborhood in a nice downtown area.

    What an absolute waste of fucking time this article is.

    Just more “wah wah cars bad big cars worse” drivel.

  • The Marines Did Not Sign Up to Police LA

    Jump

  • And yet we have zero reports of Marines or the Corps as a whole refusing to do so, meaning they’re endorsing policing LA.

    I used to have a lot of respect for the federal government, to federal LE, and for Marines.

    Used to.

  • Militarized LA: troops here to stay as Trump doubles down on deployments

    Jump

  • The entire Corps is dishonored by this.

  • "We forgor 💀"

    Jump

  • Not at all. They’re complicit.

  • Sig Sauer, faced with lawsuits over a popular pistol, gets protection in New Hampshire

    Jump

  • My P320 came with an external safety. I thought they all did.

    Edit: However after reading the article I see that’s not the case at all.

    I wonder whether I still need to worry about negligent discharges when the safety is on.

  • Gunman killed after shooting into Michigan church, where his mother is a member

    Jump

  • Don’t worry though, we’ll pretend to look into banning every citizen from whatever type of gun he used instead of doing anything at all for mental health.

  • Washington cherry growers struggle to find pickers

    Jump

  • Americans cannot afford to do these jobs.

    That job won’t pay my mortgage, my bills, support my family, or provide health insurance for us.

    And even if it did, jobs like that are seasonal so if by some miracle it did provide all I need, it wouldn’t do it year round and golly, would you look at that, my bills don’t take the growing season off.

    At one point I knew someone from a small town in Northern California where most people in the town worked for an industry like this - picking, driving, processing the stuff that was grown (I don’t remember what the crop was). The only people who weren’t directly involved provided services to those who were, working government or retail jobs in the town.

    When it wasn’t picking season, most of the town was on welfare.

  • ICE Detains U.S. Army Interpreter at Routine Asylum Hearing

    Jump

  • Thugs who cover their faces at asylum hearings which cannot be considered a tactical situation in any way need to be prosecuted and imprisoned.

    Chickenshit motherfuckers.

    In fact that goes for any sort of legal proceeding.

  • Gen-X here.

    I grew up on my boomer parents stories of what polio was like when they were kids, knowing people in iron lungs, and then what it was like when the vaccine was developed and made available.

    I adore vaccines and think that anyone who doesn’t is unworthy to continue breathing. I do not and will not apologize for that, because I’m right.

  • Safety

    Jump

  • Hey dumbass, it turns out that:

    1. Each state has its own laws about this. Where I live the same state constitution that ALSO specifically grants us the right to own firearms for self defense explicitly forbids belonging to any private militia.
    2. My part (Democrats) is so overwhelmingly anti gun that 99% of aren’t armed to begin with. So precious militia you’re smugly pretending to ask about? Yeah you’re looking at them in the post to begin with. They’re all boot licking fascists.

    Nice try though, pretending disarming Americans is the answer to anything other than more deportations, more oppression, and so on.

    I’ll give you this: literally neither side gives a shit about the actual underlying problem: mental health. Over half of ALL gun deaths in the USA each year are from suicide. You don’t need an AR15 for that. Banning and removing all guns successfully won’t stop all those people wanting to be dead, but my fellow Democrats don’t care and the fascists sure don’t.

  • U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) waiting outside unmarked van

    Jump

  • They look like criminals with zero indication as to any authority. Not uniforms, no badges.

    This nation needs to make it physically unsafe to be in such a state.

    If those were medical masks it would be different: my buddy’s wife is immune compromised so he wears a mask when out and about as do I when we’re together. That ain’t this.

  • I’d go with racism, sexism, not being a cult leader like figure unlike her opponent, and a bunch of people who’ve bought way too far into putting Palestine first over their own nation being convinced it to vote for her.

    And, possibly (there’s a lawsuit) an actually rigged election.

    I voted for her.

  • Scientists Discover the Key to Axolotls’ Ability to Regenerate Limbs

  • Oh hey I could get mine back and then get circumcised again just to piss off all the crybabies who want to sue their parents for having them circumcised the first time.

  • America's spies say Iran wasn't building a nuclear weapon. Trump dismisses that assessment

    Jump

  • We didn’t attack Iran so it doesn’t matter what we think. Presumably Israel thought they were.

  • post remake of: "WMDs: White Men with Drones."

    Jump

  • This is (was?) known as asymmetric warfare - their IEDs, our drones.
