Australia’s world-first social media ban begins as millions of children and teens lose access to accounts Accounts held by users under 16 must be removed on apps that include TikTok, Facebook, Instagram, X, YouTube, Snapchat, Reddit, Kick, Twitch and Threads under ban

"Teens on Snapchat affected by the ban had been publicly sharing their mobile numbers in their profiles ahead of their accounts being shut down."

I did spell it out in my reply to him already. I don't think what you're trying to do here is very clever or worthwhile, and I hope you grow a conscience.

Crain’s Chicago Business headline: Feds warn CTA: Beef up policing or lose transit funding

chicago police crime statistics showing total crimes on the cta are down 5.5% year to date and more than 11% since 2022.

chicago police crime statistics showing total crimes on the cta are down 5.5% year to date and more than 11% since 2022.

no where in this story about crime on the cta does it mention that crime on the cta is down.

i feel like maybe that would’ve been helpful context for readers?

Bill Clinton criticised for saying Israel β€˜forced’ to kill Gaza civilians Arab and Muslim leaders call former US president's comments 'insulting' and 'counterproductive'.

yeah they sent the corpse of a pedophile up there to tell them it was ok to do genocide against them, seems like a bad idea in retrospect www.aljazeera.com/news/2024/10...

all the fake AI trash really contradicts one of the main ways we're told capitalism operates, with capitalists identifying wants/needs & developing products & services to meet those. turns out you can skip that step & just pretend. nigh everyone hates AI and it makes no money but it's everywhere

Europeans love to tell Americans that we're not taking the threat of authoritarianism seriously enough just before they turn on the news to find out how many seats their local Kill All Immigrants party won in the last parliamentary elections

both parties were enthusiastically promising to continue assisting genocide against people like them. the democrats were very clear that they were not interested in being swayed.

you think it's weird that people would not like a party that is openly stating they will continue assisting genocide against people like them?

PSA: if anyone in your life is trying to dissuade you from getting the shingles shot, you should probably assume that person hates you, and wants you to suffer. There is literally no other explanation.

Shingles hurts worse than childbirth. Worse than knee surgery. Worst pain of my life.

This whole so-called β€œparents rights” movement the right has taken up and the left is supposed to kowtow to for votes is so obviously anti-child it really bothers me to see it presented as anything other than justification for abusive β€œparenting” and disregard for actual science on child development
