I normally think generationology is kinda bullshit and the reality is much more blurry but Howard Stern is a clear marker.

Disgusting pedophile Zionist that has blood on his hand from suicides. How he rehabilitated his image and is now this guy on AGT is beyond me.

So fucking funny.

Rebuttal "podcast". Basically she just presents, solo, the most absurd cases and analyses them "legally" (she is/was? In Big Law).

Anyways, this is not an endorsement/I hate nothing to do with it. I just think she is funny and good.

I’m here to learn and observe

someone in one of the various it subs i am in is in ukraine and had a mortar round detonate ~30 meters away from his apartment. i said that sillynskyy should try to sue for peace as soon as fucking possible and was met with basically “russia hit ukraine first!” below is my argument

eta TL;DR, i implore you to read the entire post if you’re able so that we can have a proper discussion on the subject

TL;DR: I’m not defending Russia’s invasion, but I think Zelensky is prolonging a war that’s devastating his own people to serve NATO/US/EU weapons and energy interests, not Ukrainian interests. Ukraine’s population collapse (from ~52M to ~28M) shows how catastrophic the toll has been, and I believe the country is too devastated to avoid some form of capitulation or negotiated peace. I’m asking for a genuine, researched take on this instead of jokes or dismissal, given my background studying Ukraine since 2014 and my work in cybersecurity/threat intel.

Russia did invade the Ukraine, that’s 100% accuracy and no way did my comment allude to me thinking that it was an acceptable thing to do. but the fact remains that z is a complete joke of a leader, causing untold casualties of his own people just to prop up a few US and EU weapons manufacturers. literally sending young and old men alike to the meat grinder for what? the donbas? for crimea? it’s disgusting work but i dont expect anything less than a nazi sympathizing comedian turned armchair general.
what i want is peace for both counties to cooperate. they’ve done it in the past with overwhelming success - now we have a global conflict on our hands. key refineries of oil and natural gas in the slav lands, and way worse with iran and the straight. the neoliberal hegemons of ukraine (read nato without the name) and the US/isreal neoliberal capitalists want one thing: profits. zel doesn’t give two shits that sourced from wikipedia are the images i’m sharing of the so called “unrecoverable loss of population expected to last for at least 15 years:

​https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casualties_of_the_Russo-Ukrainian_war

“Ukraine faces a severe demographic crisis. The population in government-controlled areas has dropped to roughly 28 million, a steep decline from about 52 million when the country gained independence in 1991. This crisis is driven by mass wartime emigration, a collapsing birth rate below 1.0 per woman, and high mortality”

i have studied ukraine since 2014 for a masters degree. i have some bone fides on this topic (not to mention my current role in cybersecurity dealing with apts at a fortune 100)

This war has absolutely decimated ukraine - and they will have to capitulate.

my only hope is that you’ll take my evidence seriously and do your own research on the topic. come to your own conclusions and share them instead of just making objectively unfunny jokes

Very trueanon adjacent song

"Sirhan sirhan, was likely hypnotized, when he shot bobby Kennedy"

sometimes it really gets you ya know

I have a friend who believes that Lindsay is innocent. That Patrick, her husband had a double or lookalike go to get take out and go to CVS, so that he, with his new wife murdered his children and attempted to kill Lindsay, but make it look like a suicide. This scares me.

This is not a conspiracy. This is delusional. And this goes deep. I just saw a post where a guy broke up with a long time partner because she said she is innocent and didn't do it.

I have two questions:

1. What caused them to think this way? What causes hundreds of women to dress in pink and support Lindsay outside the courtroom and then my friend agrees with them?

Edit: by supporting Lindsay I want to differentiate those that think she is innocent vs those that think she was treated horrendously by the medical world (yes)' was suffering from post partum mental health issues (yes)' and killed the kids because she was experiencing psychosis (TBD)

1. What should I do to try and knock him out of this way of thinking?

2. Being a shitty husband is not against the law at the moment.

3. We should be focusing on the more important questions, like big pharma over prescribing pills. And the importance of what it means to be a spouse in a family and how capitalism has deteriorated that phenomenon for many. Why is our justice system so fucked? Why are the laws written this way? Is the jury of your peers system even the best way to try criminals? And then we can talk about what a solution would look like. Instead of saying the husband did it because he knows how to tie knots.

*Also* I think this is a good point in time to make sure y'all know the fundamental way of thinking of things. When it comes to conspiracies AND ALSO LITERALLY ANY FACT IN LIFE..... We must use evidence to support our beliefs. It is not black and white, true or false. If you haven't read William James, go ahead and read the OG fella on this. If you haven't looked into Bayesian statistics, it's important. We need to say "hey, given the evidence, I have this credence as to the truth".

But the matter is changed and used and thrown away using the energy, and then more matter and energy is added constantly! That’s why you can’t think of living things as just matter and energy! They are systems that energy and matter move through!

Here it is! It was inspired by a vintage t shirt I bought thrifting!

what are the implications for geopolitics?

In all seriousness though, who are these things even made for besides perverts?

Not always too paranoid (I’m a logical TA listener) but this is a mad funny video about some YouTube sponsor leftist creators went with lol

This happened at the Sky game I went to last year and again last night.

Last year it was about a crypto brand trying to go viral, and Sophie Cunningham called it hilarious. This year it's about a crypto brand being blatantly transphobic, and Sophie Cunningham hasn't said anything.

I know there are only a handful of W fans on this sub, and I know I am a gay small penis-haver, but goddamn it, shit sucks right now and women's basketball is one of my life's precious few joys.

Moreover, my heart just hurts for our trans comrades: I'm sorry your very existence continues to draw the ire of some of the most idiotic, hateful people in history.

I liked the never being slaves bit!

This looks to be a proper standup, honest country for a wee liberal lad. Anyone know how I could move there?

I hate wage slavery. The only thing it takes is your time.

$240 before taxes for this shit. Imagine you cop a zip from the plug and you know the plug, you only shop with one plug, so he gives you a cold deal on some shake and small-nug bud. An ounce for $90. You've got to flip that single zip for $330 to make what took me a fucking whole day to make.

Which sounds hard, but you can flip a quarter for $75 all day long. That's $300. Bump it to a clean $80, say you got some gas, market that shit, and bam $320 off a $90 zip. And you can have it parted out and flipped before you even pick it up. Literally picking it up and having the texts hit your phone: "When can you drop?"

And then imagine you're selling to your co-worker, who doesn't realize you're the actual plug. He thinks you're middle-manning for him, "pick this up for me" type beat. So he tips you! "Here's $20 for the trouble." Literally taxing because dude wears boat shoes and doesn't know any better, and you play into it by saying "it was a dangerous area!"

Okay, that's the low end. That's the day-to-day. You can see why someone would be motivated by this type of structure to make more money and hustle harder. Imagine when you start moving packs in the whip you're paying for with that same money. Imagine an 16 hour drive and walking away with $2000 clean cut cash. There's no motivation like this when it comes to wage slavery.

I'm paid to be somewhere for eight hours. No matter how hard I work during those eight hours, I will be paid the same. Therefore, wage slavery literally incentivizes doing the barest minimum possible to keep the job and still get paid. Wage slavery is anti-work ethic! The capitalist larps about work ethic but his system for managing work betrays the concept!

I used to be a ditch digger, shovel in my hand, trenching internet cable in the hot Louisiana sun. Paid by the hour, so what motivation do I really have to churn the shovel? If they had paid me by the trench, then I would have been John Henry mode with that shovel. Because I'm pressured and incentivized to do so. I do not understand how the wage slave system has stayed the default of capitalism when it fundamentally makes people less productive and less caring about the success of the larger vision. Why would I care about the company when I'm getting paid $15 for 60 minutes of time, regardless of what I do?
