  • What is with these videos where it's just someone reaction to shit someone else is doing?

    Jump

  • Fully agreed that this is a dumb thing but hasn't this been a fad since like 10 years ago?

    I've seen people do that (or worse, watch a video of someone else playing a game) since looooong ago

  • Disney World cast member hurt stopping 180-kg fake boulder from hitting audience

    Jump

  • This

    The guy really tried doing his best in a split second but there is a good chance they'll just fire his ass for this. The audience may think him a hero but HR?

  • The end of 2025 must be the end of the inane rule of climate ‘optimism’ | The world missed its opportunity to prevent climate change. We need to focus our resources on adapting to it.

  • The world missed it's opportunity to prevent climate change

    Yes?

    It's missed it multiple times and it will continue to do so. The Paris climate accords were an absolute joke yet even the outcome of that was just ignored by all the important players. That was when Obama was in charge, now we have trump, good luck with that

  • CIA rejects Putin's claim of Ukrainian attack on his residence, CNN reports

    Jump

  • So?

    If they did, and succeeded, the war would be over. I mean, Putin is a legitimate target and it's not as if Putin wouldn't murder Zelenski, given the chance

  • ‘Their first instinct was to loot’: how Trump’s acolytes are plundering the Kennedy Center

    Jump

  • Ohh, that sounds amazing

    My idea was to just bulldozer that shit right after he's gone and bring back everything to how it was and continue from there, but this is better. Leave. A place where people can learn what stupid shit can happen when you vote for fascists

  • Impressive and again a yay for science

  • What's your kinda-unimpressive 'claim to fame'?

    Jump

  • I don't even know what that is

  • Billionaires added record $2.2tn in wealth in 2025

    Jump

  • So when are we finally going to stop this, stop the billionaires?

    We need laws that put hard caps on ownership and personal wealth. Nobody should be able to have a net worth of over, say, 10 million dollars. Any income over that should be taxed 100% until the person goes below the 10 million line

    We done even need different economic systems, capitalism works well to generate wealth, that is fine, we just need to put rules on where that wealth goes.

    With taxes, that is a simple fix.

    Imagine if you will, if nobody can be worth over 10M, and companies het similarly capped at, say, 1 billion.

    You have a company worth 1 billion? You can't have a single owner because of the 10M cap. You'll end up with many ay more smaller companies or bigger companies with loads of small share holders. Companies can compete and grow but the perverse incentives of endless growth would be gone. Companies can finally focus on the end consumers again, and make better products

    Meanwhile governments get a huge tax influx, that can be used to fund independent investment foundations that help new startups with funding and professional help to get your new company started

    That tax money could be used as well to fund free healthcare, free education, maybe even universal income. We could eradicate the poor.

    People could stop focusing on survival and start focusing on living and loving.

    I dunno, there are loads of details missing, of course, but this sounds like something doable.

  • Trump was ‘most culpable’ for Jan 6 riot and would have been convicted in court, Jack Smith told Congress in newly released testimony

    Jump

  • And yet didn't indict him

  • Things ChatGPT told a mentally ill man before he murdered his mother

    Jump

  • How?

    By design, because they want people to interact as much with their AI as possible, they made AI's agreeable which, y'know, is stupid but that's the time we live on now. Products no longer exist for our benefit, we exist for the benefit of the product

    This would not have happened if there were sane rules and regulations but since trump scrapped any and all regulations, and made sure that states can't regulate it themselves either, we now effectively have a bunch of billionaires controlling misinformation machines, and we are okay with that, apparently?

    Why is nobody stopping this bullshit?

  • centrists

    Jump

  • Yeah, no. This is disingenuous at best.

  • Trump’s Mystery Bruise Spreads to His Other Hand

    Jump

  • I know try pnianalow but god it's so annoying that he has to die so slow. Go faster dude hell is waiting for you, and you know it, you said so yourself.

    I really don't wish anyone dead but I do wish for a better world. Since trump has objectively made the world a worse place, I can't wait for the world to return to at least some form or normal where we try to be better instead of trying to be "more for me"

  • Humans May Be Able to Grow New Teeth Within Just 4 Years

    Jump

  • No they won't.

    This is the same as "humans may live on a mara colony in 10 years!"

    No they won't, not even close.

    This article is bullshit and so is the entire site, it's all djinn economy, all wishes and fantasy with a clickbait header to make sure you go there to watch the ads to make them money.

  • you are

  • And the girl is the reason why feminists have such a bad reputation

    Just don't be a dick and treat everyone equal and with respect and we'll be fine.

    Now watch the down votes come in because I said that everyone should be treated equal and with respect and that the girl was wrong.
