  • What's Behind the Rise in Colon Cancer in Young Guys?

    Jump

  • Even the old school chuds on bodybuilding.com would go for the chicken AND broccoli diet. Idk what the point is of completely foregoing fiber.

  • Orbán says the EU and not Russia is Hungary’s real threat ahead of April vote

    Jump

  • Why would he leave when he can use the mechanisms of the EU to fuck shit up on behalf of Russia.

  • [Combat] After exhausting its supply of AIM-9L/M missiles, a Ukrainian F-16AM launched its final AIM-120 AMRAAM to intercept a Shahed UAV.

    Jump

  • That AMRAAM costs what, 20x as much as the Shahed? Good that they stopped it but Ukraine needs more cutting edge drone defenses. Energy weapons.

  • The Actual Gavin Newsom Is Much Worse Than You Think

    Jump

  • While you do that AIPAC is ensuring that your 2028 option will be Newsom and Rahm Emanuel or someone else they hand pick. That way they win no matter what happens and Americans remain pay pigs for genocide.

  • Nobody suspects the Spanish reconquest-iton

    Jump

  • It was definitely more conquest than colonization.

    The more interesting thing is that the Ummayads conquered most of Iberia in like 7-8 years. The Reconquista took 7 centuries and wasn't completed until 1492.

    Incidentally some of the hardened veterans of the late Reconquista were the ones who would go on to annihilate the Aztec empire (didn't help that the Aztecs had a lot of surrounding nations that they had subjugated that hated them) and commit some of the worst atrocities in this history of European colonialism including treating the natives of the new world as slaves in their race for resource extraction.

    The resources extracted in the new world would help build a lot of the nice architecture we see in modern day Spain, but it also cause inflation that destroyed Spain's productive economy.

    Here's a video that explains that last part (to be taken with a huge grain of salt - lot of absolutes stated here, but the overall thing did happen):

  • It also helps if they're actually guilty of crimes that the president can hold over them to ensure loyalty.

  • It basically doesn't matter if she resigns or not. Whoever takes her place will be decided by Trump who will just want someone who will cover up the worst of the Epstein files, run cover to ICE misconduct, and never prosecute those who bribe Trump. Whether it's Bondi or not barely matters.

  • Astronomers celebrate cancellation of $10bn Chile project that threatened clearest skies in the world

    Jump

  • They have the best place to view the night sky because it is undeveloped. How is this so hard for you to understand?

    Yeah that's not true bruh. Takes more than empty space. The only place even comparable is Mona Kea in Hawaii.

  • Being a good dad is a really undervalued quality in nearly every royal family, honestly

    Jump

  • Someone should make the same meme for the Ottoman Empire if they just fixed their leader's inheritance rules.

  • Noam Chomsky's wife called Epstein their "best friend" multiple times

    Jump

  • The"hype" around him is about the fact (yes it's a fact) that he made generational contributions to the field of linguistics (probably decades before he met Epstein) and a lot of people like his book "Manufacturing Consent".

  • Discord will restrict your account next month unless you scan ID or face

  • Self-hosted options like Mumble also exist.

    Self-hosted is a pain to get started with but as everything enshittifies if will only get more important.

  • It Took Less Than a Quarter for NFL Fans to Be Sick of AI Ads During Super Bowl LX

    Jump

  • The funniest thing about this is that using AI slop for Superbowl ads is actually peak capitalism. The cost of the ad space itself dwarfs the cost for producing the ads, with AI or not. But the worthless MBAs driving this just can't help themselves.

  • 'Take the vaccine, please,' a top US health official says in an appeal as measles cases rise

    Jump

  • The fact that this clown is a "Top US Health Official" is a great indication of an empire in decline.

  • Shit like that gets you labeled a Communist in today's GOP.

  • Trump-GOP Law Slashes Amazon’s Tax Bill by 87% as Company Fires 30,000 Workers, Profits Soar

    Jump

  • Paid with what? Who stops him from demanding more, and how are they paid and with what? Billionaire power comes from currency that is spendable on a large open market. The market doesn't exist anymore.

  • Why will the handyman keep coming?

  • Elon Musk will be deposed along with DOGE staffers over USAID dismantling

    Jump

  • Look dude I get it you really like Elon

    0/10 reading comprehension.

    but he’s a criminal and deserves to go to jail or hang for the thousands of people who died due to his USAID cuts.

    Agreed.

    I’m done with this conversation and you

    Cool but what I was saying is that you'll never pin any of this on him because he managed to do all the damage he did without committing a crime. The fact that this was possible is itself the problem . You haven't even engaged with what the actual problem is, you're just reacting emotionally.

  • London real estate was less desirable back then

  • Dude didn't even speak English and barely spent any time in England at all lol

  • Elon Musk will be deposed along with DOGE staffers over USAID dismantling

    Jump

  • What crimes? Name them. And how they would be proven beyond a reasonable doubt? Remember, all he has to do is create reasonable doubt. These guys have staff who will literally do nothing much make sure that doubt exists. Name one specific order he gave ar DOGE that is verifiable - one order that he definitely gave, that a specific person definitely followed. You can't do it. Prosecutors won't be able to either.

    If anything there will be more of a case against government workers for following instructions from people who had no legal authority to give them.

    This is why granting someone power completely outside of legal bounds - outside of any laws that govern the cabinet - is a really really bad idea.
