He was trying to eat our bacon and when reasoned discussion failed, I took things (a camp chair) into my own hands.

It’s not that they disregard suffering, it’s that they delight in causing it. The cruelty is the point.

It’s certainly not because Beijing won’t let them. No no. Certainly not.

You could be decent to trans people because it’s the right thing to do. Or because harming them hurts your reputation with voters. But somehow hating and facing consequences for your hate seems to be the third choice too many take

Nah, OPEC is increasing production enough so that won’t happen. The Saudis love this.

This isnt true. I’ve seen other ppl saying it & it’s wrong. Iran consistently intervened against Trump. That part was true.

The point of having the fake Proud Boys make threats was to get news coverage of a false flag of Trump supporters making threats.

In 2022 it boosted left candidates.

A woman from a mandatory workplace training stands in a liminal space with creepy MC Escher-like steps. 

The caption reads: β€œFortunately, cybersecurity is not that hard.”

The woman shows no awareness that what she’s saying is hogwash.

Bad Bunny illustrates the nation’s IMMIGRATION divide???

Bad Bunny is AMERICAN! He was born in AMERICA to AMERICAN parents!!

He’s not an immigrant or a child of immigrants. He’s AMERICAN.

Laying off @joemenn.bsky.social is the newsroom management equivalent of stapling your dick to the wall. Truly insane move, and one of many.

To be perfectly clear, this lawsuit is laughable bullshit and the lawyers at Quinn who filed it should be sanctioned heavily.

This is either going to be user-reported messages or total bs.

Lawsuit Claims Meta Can See WhatsApp Chats in Breach of Privacy An international group of plaintiffs sued Meta Platforms, Inc. alleging that the company has made false claims about the privacy and security of its WhatsApp chat service.

I'm v skeptical of this lawsuit. Thin on details (4 grafs!), all based on unnamed "whistleblowers"' say-so. Yet as the complaint points out at far greater length, Meta's reputation on privacy precedes it - which I guess plaintiffs hope will beat Rules 12(b)(6) & 11. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...
