  • why are rhey so eager to sck up when he wants them gone? it makes no sense

  • Kremlin-backed disinformation campaign targets German parliamentary elections via hundreds of fake news sites

    Jump

  • Hopefully Germany learns from what has happened elsewhere and deals with this aggressively

  • Tea bags releasing 'millions' of microplastics into tea, study shows

    Jump

  • Are plastic teabags an American thing? Most Canadian and british tea come in paper bags... wish there was more information in this article its so vague.

  • The Two Genders

    Jump

  • they will complain about any female face that isnt 'girlish' enough or any female costume that doesnt show off enough boob

  • oh yeah, i'm a metalhead 👀

    Jump

  • I am also a female metalhead who does not dress spooky. It true, we all carry around soup cans

  • HBO Says ‘Harry Potter’ Series Will ‘Benefit’ From J.K. Rowling’s Involvement: She ‘Has the Right to Express Her Personal Views’ [Variety]

    Jump

  • Yes. Out of touch and also disdainful of the entertainment his compankes make, seemingly.

    Hes the kind of guy who would attend a TCM event with famous directors and talk about how he loved film, only to attempt killing off the whole channel not long after (he was talked out of it by some of those same directors)

    He hates all entertainment that isnt cheap reality TV, and is the worst possible person to oversee an entertainment empire.

  • i also have the right to boycott everything in her orbit, because she is a hateful disinfo spreading terf who is going to get people hurt.

  • Standoff as Canada Yukon town council refuses to swear oath to King Charles

    Jump

  • You are correct about this, Im not disagreeing.

    Im just saying it would be nice to have the choice between the traditional oath and a non-royal version for whatever personal reason. "I promise to be loyal, steadfast, and obey the laws of Canada" (etc). Seems like that wouldnt negate the technical role of the monarchy, I dont know.

  • Standoff as Canada Yukon town council refuses to swear oath to King Charles

    Jump

  • Even acknowledging that he plays a legal role in how Canada operates (technically) its still ridiculous that anyone would have to do this, or get in trouble for refusing. An oath to obey the laws of a country, sure, but swearing loyalty to an unelected monarch seems like it should be optional at the least.

  • Petition calls to ban Elon Musk's X in Europe

    Jump

  • how would it lead to less good stuff?

    Sorry, this isnt just about banning twitter because they dont like it. This happening because Twitter is boosting all manner of hate speech, misinformation, disgusting content and calling for violence against vulnerable people. Its an unmoderated far right propoganda hose. Free societies should ban nazi propaganda actually, we know what happens when you tolerate this stuff or brand it as "just another opinion."

  • Disco Elysium Successor Dev Says He Is Being Sued By The Others

    Jump

  • I wasnt suggesting "burying my head in the sand" or ignoring politics generally. I just half assedly read the article and thought it was more about a big corporation throttling the project, but I clearly missed the point entirely. Youre right.

  • Four Dead In Fire As Tesla Doors Fail To Open After Crash

    Jump

  • Well when you get cars designed by people who think safety regulation can be ignored, this is what you get.

  • Disco Elysium Successor Dev Says He Is Being Sued By The Others

    Jump

  • it sounds more like business people dicking each other over. why bring politics into it?

  • I’m a neuroscientist who taught rats to drive − their joy suggests how anticipating fun can enrich human life

    Jump

  • the superior cybertruck

  • A powerful excerpt from "They Thought They Were Free: The Germans, 1933-45", an interview with a German after WWII on why they didn't rise up against the regime due to incrementalism.

    Jump

  • you could argue theres already been incremental creep of accepting right wing ideas.

    However looking at Trmps game plan and cabinet picks it doesnt look too incremental this time. It sounds like he wants to get right to the bulldozing and violence right out of the gate.

  • Helping Ukraine is Europe’s job now as Trump is closer to Putin than to any of the continent’s democratic leaders, scholar says

    Jump

  • a lot of people were, but its hard to be heard over all the right wing messaging
