  • TIL that last month, a rich man in New Jersey killed a pedestrian and left the scene. He was put on trial. The jury found him guilty. 15 minutes later, he walked out free.

  • I just realized that the knowledge I have from newspapers from my youth no longer applies. They no longer put the most pertinent info near the top, but at the bottom. Burying the lede is just the default nowadays.

    The governor pardoned him almost immediately after the jury came back.

  • If you start with a fresh deck and perform 8 perfect dovetail shuffles, you'll have shuffled the deck back into the exact same arrangement it started in.

  • Video of Japanese woman pushing South Korean child sparks outrage

    Jump

  • It's getting more attention because there was an incident like this two weeks ago in Shibuya where a woman knocked over a Taiwanese kid in a crosswalk. People looking up the phenomenon, finding this example, and it, just like the incident two weeks ago, also had anti-foreigner vibes in addition to being shitty.

  • There is an Isekai where the protagonist is obsessed with mecha and he wakes up in a world where mecha suits are the dominant magic tool. He outright kills his rival at one point... but only because the dude was designing airships instead of mechas, and the protagonist knows how precarious the mecha domination is (cause humanoid robots are such a massive pain to work with/ use rather than specialized machines)

  • Trump looks increasingly desperate to restrict voting rights

  • Cool. Doesn't change the fact that it's not valid ID for the purposed "prove you're a citizen" bill, so it's mostly irrelevant to this discussion. It doesn't even prove citizenship.

  • Platonic solids exclude the Rhombic Dodecahedron, so who needs them?

  • SSN isn't proof of anything except eligibility for Social Security benefits. Yes, the system is abused to cover for the lack of a national ID, but it isn't an ID.

  • Lol, no. That's just a leftist thing, my man. Capitalism requires new markets to expand into, imperialism supplies that.

    Imperialism isn't just owning colonies, it's also suppression of competition in markets already established by the empire. That's what the invading everyone with oil that we can in 2026 is all about. It's not just about market expansion (though that certainly can, does, and likely will happen). It's about market domination.

    And yes, imperialism is bad when it's done by anyone, not just the west.

    I don't think anyone's thinking about NATO in this conversation.

  • I don't think anyone suggested that, but go off. First comment blamed Russia, Israel, and the Epstein files. Someone asked why Russia, I explained why Russia. Thank you, come again

  • Strike against mask wearing in 1930s echoed COVID-19 protests, study finds

  • You think the backlash to mask mandates was the cause for lawlessness almost a decade later? That's incoherent af

    This isn't even a bad take, it makes no sense at all

  • The issue isn't with your body or with a moral failing... on your part. We make food as cheaply and as addictive as possible. We don't need to give Ozempic to children, we need to hold food producers accountable for the shit they sling.

  • It being a US operation and them coming from the US aren't the same thing, Rubio. Ya idiot.

  • Yeah, man, people walk around with little sticks of dynamite, why are they concerned about the literal ton of TNT on these cars? They're equally dangerous! /s

    I don't disagree that it's an overblown issue, but it's not NOT an issue. EVs will burn for longer, hotter, and are harder to put out than ICE vehicles, but I don't think it's a compelling argument against adoption.

    But the difference in scale between the examples you gave is extremely hilarious

  • This admin is full of individuals that the Kremlin has kompromat on. It's not surprising at all.

  • psssst

  • Yes. You think the average scientist wants to be wasting their time creating catch-all experiments in order to get published so they can secure more grants? Of course not, they want to follow their curiosity to answer big questions or fail to get the answers but answer other questions. This model wastes everyone's time for extremely small gains. But it's all about stakeholder's investments.
