  • Crunchyroll is Investigating Situation After Voice Actor Claims Company Opened His Mail, Gave Away Contents | ANN

  • "We have investigated ourselves and found no wrongdoing" in 3... 2... 1...

  • Harris campaign failed to connect with working class, US union federation says

    Jump

  • I wonder how much this whole situation resonates with what happened in Argentina, when they elected Milei.

    Milei to them was an obvious lunatic who would probably be terrible but had a small chance to be different, versus their traditional party who would very obviously just continue the country's predictable economic decline.

    Then again, I can't really see any way Trump could be good for you if you're poor. Not ever by the most charitable interpretations.

  • US finds that Israel is not impeding assistance to Gaza; aid groups disagree

  • Big "The police department have investigated themselves and found no wrongdoing" energy

  • More than 100 German legislators back motion to ban far-right AfD

    Jump

  • Best of luck, guys.

    I know that doing things that can eliminate a political opposition are incredibly ethically sensitive, but it's demonstrably the correct choice here. I just wish that it wasn't a choice that had to be made. How are these far right parties getting so many votes? Where have we failed?

  • Pentagon stunned after Trump picks Pete Hegseth for defence secretary

    Jump

  • This is a pretty outstanding Dipshit Move, even by the standards of Trump. And a good 90% of his actions seem stupid to the point of being actively malicious anyways.

  • Are adventurers like black widows or blue-ringed octopi to dragons?

    Jump

  • Valid post, and given the scale of DnD dragons I'd say that an adventurer is about the size of a cat relative to an adult dragon. IRL, a cat being able to attack you and successfully kill you would be pretty fucked up even if it's theoretically possible.

    Incidentally however...

    A cat in DnD does have the ability to reliably fight and kill a Commoner.

    So what I'm saying is that it should actually be a valid plot to put humans in the position of some shitty media's dragons- once dominant, but through the power of one especially heroic housecat who has exceptionally strong plot armour, we are reduced to a dying race, ancient and forgotten by the new era.

  • Republican Party has 'homoerotic fascination' with Vladimir Putin: Ex-UK PM

    Jump

  • Boris Johnson robbed my country blind; his party's Austerity sold off and destroyed our public infrastructure and services to such a terrible degree that it's unlikely the UK will recover within my lifetime if at all, and that's BEFORE you get into the truly devastating consequences imposed on us by Brexit, or the fact his verbatim orders to handle covid were "Let the bodies pile high in the streets!". All to line the pockets of him and his billionaire shitbag friends.

    ...So it is with some regret that I say: I can't argue with this statement.

    Boris Johnson has a similar fascination, you see. This guy wants to be Winston Churchill sooooooooo badly. You would not believe how hard BJ wishes he could be a modern Churchill. It was an open secret that the russian government had some pretty solid influence over Boris, a lot of rumours about them having dirt on his father in particular- and many reasonable and well-founded theories that Boris pushed Brexit through at the behest of Putin. But Boris Johnson saw the war in Ukraine start and he changed overnight. He certainly didn't give up any of his vices or become a better person, god no, not at all. But he had stars in his eyes at the prospect of going down in history as a big and strong and heroic wartime leader studied in history books, and for that reason, he absolutely jumped at the prospect of helping Ukraine. Zero hesitation.

    What I'm saying is that I genuinely believe Ukraine represents Boris Johnson's lifelong dreams as a human being. And for that reason even if Boris is a terrible person who is certainly prone to bias, he has every intention of supporting Ukraine as much as he can- hence his willingness to speak against someone that he was previously very close with.

  • Justice Dept. to focus on 'most egregious' Jan. 6 cases until Trump is inaugurated

    Jump

  • I understand the feeling of pessimism, but let's not forget who Trump is.

    Unless pardoning them directly and immediately benefits him, he's quite unlikely to give a shit

  • Kamala Harris predicted to win by nearly every major forecaster

    Jump

  • But remember, we DO. NOT. LET. UP.

    Not until every vote has been cast. Not until it's over. Don't get cocky, this is the narrowest race I've ever seen and by god there is no room for apathy or overconfidence.

  • Peak Konsi content, this might not normally be my style of character but I LOVE it when she gets to nonchalantly and completely accidentally upend people's understanding of reality

  • The average age of U.S. homebuyers jumps to 56—homes are 'wildly unaffordable' for young people, real estate expert says

    Jump

  • Yeah, I've been saving hard for nearly 6 years now, I have zero debt from higher education, extremely cheap rent because I live in my parents' backyard, and a well-paying job... and I still don't know if I'll be able to get a house by 2026.

    If even one of those factors were different for me, then owning a home would become completely unrealistic.

    And politicians wonder why we're not having kids, huh.

  • Don't worry the new version of D&D will fix the issue.

  • Megalovania

  • Republicans preparing to reject US election result if Trump loses, warn strategists

    Jump

  • Alright. That's a perfectly reasonable concern. Do the Democrats have a concrete plan prepared to ensure that this doesn't turn into Bush v Gore round 2? Because if Trump manages to legally contest this to the Supreme Court, then little problems like 'Justice' and 'Truth' certainly won't get in their way of installing a dictator.

  • The news certainly isn't new, but there's a difference between knowing something that is 99% likely to be true and having hard, factual evidence, and just having a formal report on it.

    We all know that Epstein didn't kill himself. It was the most blatant political murder of the century. But there's a difference between knowing Epstein didn't kill himself, and a major investigatory body releasing a report that analyses all available information and confirms accurately and without bias, that Epstein didn't kill himself.

  • Freetube and individious are not playing some videos

    Jump

  • I've had some issues with Invidious being unable to play specific videos once or twice, but the issues tend to go away after a couple of days.

    I mean, we know Google and Youtube are both multi-billion-dollar corporations that are absolutely enraged by the idea that there could be any possible way for a commoner pleb like you to NOT have your online experience absolutely crammed with as many privacy violations and hyper-targeted ads as possible. Invidious having to constantly stay ahead of such powerful entities' attempts to block them out means that some errors and periods of downtime are perfectly excusable- what's important is continuing to support them in their fight.

  • Smartphone buyers meh on AI, care much more about battery life - 9to5Mac

    Jump

  • Nobody's ever accused me of being smart! But hey, at least I'm honest

  • Smartphone buyers meh on AI, care much more about battery life - 9to5Mac

    Jump

  • Insanely true, I didn't give a shit about 90% of the features on my new phone once my old one broke down and I got a Pixel 8, but I was delighted to go from a worn-out 12 hour battery life to a 64 hour battery life. I would actively like to uninstall any sort of current AI function from my phone if it could increase my battery longevity by even 1%.

    Also: ew, Apple.

    Edit: Really annoyed it doesn't have a headphone jack though

  • Any day now.

    Jump

  • People really need to understand that for 3rd party candidates to actually be viable then they need a dedicated support base within the existing government structure.

    You can't realistically vote in a 3rd party president until you've first built up an actually effective support structure of 3rd party mayors, senators, and other politicians to prove that your party can function effectively in government rolls and that it has the reach, policies and platform to actually appeal to voters at large.

    (On god we need Ranked Choice voting though. Here in the UK and in America. Fuck First Past The Post, all my homies hate FPTP)
