  • Acting ICE Director Todd Lyons said in a recent interview that his agency intended to probe anti-fascist and anti-ICE protesters and those that support them. “We are going to track the money. We are going to track these ringleaders.” He went on to claim, without evidence, that many of the protesters in Chicago were “professional agitators that are being brought in.”

    Why bother, just listen to any right wing political commentator over the last 10 years, it's all George Soros right?

  • City populations are measured using satellite-mapped urban footprints for global consistency.

    Is global consistency more important than accuracy? This says Perth has 1.1M people, which is a pretty huge difference from the actual 2.3M. Seems useless. I guess that means it's twice as spread out as whatever the standard is, but then make that map instead.

  • Anyone who celebrates anything that isn't relevant to me personally is an idiot.

  • God damn you didn't say it was a sleeper hold! I don't know who Gunther is so I was picturing like a Sharpshooter or something, at least that would have been a real move. Going out on a rest hold is brutal.

  • What happened?

  • Ootl here, is that the president Sleepy Joe I've seen getting mocked for years?

  • Ah, the most common argument for exclusives in the last 20 years of console wars.

  • But she’s honest about the limits, summing it up, “But that’s part of the job, and it’s what makes it fun and challenging and keeps every day new. And it’s, you know, it’s temporary. We’re one year down. We got three to go.”

    Assuming there really are only 3 to go, she'll still be younger than I am now when she finishes, and she's clearly in a much better place financially. Who gives a fuck?

    I don't have kids because I work 5 13-hour shifts a week and I don't think it'd be responsible to bring a child into that when I can't be there to help raise them (nevermind the health issues I'm risking from sleep deprivation already, I don't need a newborn on top of that). My partner also works full time, and even then we're barely making enough to get by. But hey, let's have a story about how one of the worst people in the world had to cancel her 3 holidays this year.

    In the end, Leavitt’s reality reads like a cautionary tale for anyone thinking proximity to power comes cheap. Between the canceled trips, the social media taunts, the age-gap commentary, and the nonstop demands of defending Trump, she’s living the full cost of the job — as she put it, just “part of the job.”

    So... she isn't even complaining? This writer is just sad that Leavitt's life must be tough because of all of these things she chose to do? Thank you for wasting everybody's time, Atlanta Black Star. I hope your engagement-bait is fulfilling.

    Oh

  • Are they the same guys that dropped Fénix a week ago?

  • Luckily he's a really good performer with tons of goodwill saved up, so nobody will make fun of him.

  • Did they actually come back or did a bunch of comments not show up in your profile because the subs were private so they didn't get deleted, then they reappeared when the subs reopened? I thought some of mine were restored too, but it was a combination of that and the tool I used only hitting the most recent 1000.

  • Shame?

    “I know that this decision will upset many, and delight others, but in this political climate I must keep my family safe,” Douglass said

    He's resigning because the left is so viowent and scawy, not because he's ashamed. We'll all have forgotten his name in 2 weeks and he'll have a better job somewhere else, pulling the exact same shit.

  • No more

  • Set your alarm for the exact time you need to get up and get out of bed when it goes off.

    When I was younger I forced this by putting the clock out of reach, I had to physically get out of bed to turn it off. I don't need to do it any more but it was a very good habit to get into.

  • Do those words mean anything or are they just bird noises?

  • I'll take longer shifts with 7 days off per fortnight over normal ones with only weekends off any day. I rarely change my sleep schedule, I just stay nocturnal most of the time. I pop to the shops on my break most shifts to grab a backpack load of groceries, then there's a 24h one near my apartment if I need anything that can't wait on nights off. I spend my "mornings" with my girlfriend until she goes to bed around lunchtime, then I have the rest of my time to myself. It works for me, and has been for the last 8 years 🤷‍♂️

  • Security, and I would kill for a couple of hours to myself each day. By the time I get home, I have about half an hour to get to sleep if I want a full 8h down before the next shift. I work 2-3 nights, then get 2-3 off, so it averages out to 7 shifts a fortnight which isn't so bad.

  • 3pm, for a 5pm-6am workday. The type of person who would present this question unironically would probably still consider me useless though.

  • That's Loops iirc

  • I can see rego plates in the picture, are they not linked to anyone? Ticket the owner, it's not rocket science.

  • One way
