That’s still likely to be noticed and moderated. But they basically don’t even bother trying to moderate anything that’s not in English.

Well, if he’d just watch John Oliver once in a while, he’d know that these platforms more or less ignore anything that’s not in English. So if you want to spout hateful, destructive vitriol, racist tirades, or a never-ending stream of bullshit propaganda, just don’t do it in English. It’s how Republicans maintain a…

Not really. Maybe for some scavengers and the like, but most of it will rot and get carried back down stream or, worse, create a superbloom of toxic bacteria and the like that further damages the local ecology. And then there’s the run-on of all the animals that *WON’T* have these fish and their offspring to feed on…

Republicans are a cult. It doesn’t matter what the cult leaders do — cult members will obey, without question. Because the alternative is to acknowledge the fact that they are a cult member, and they’ve been brainwashed, that little or nothing of what they think or believe is real. They’ll just keep doubling down on…

Law enforcement personnel accused of racial profiling is usually true. Whether the racial profiling was intentional or unconscious is irrelevant. They’re *STILL* letting prejudice dictate procedure. And with over a century of prejudice baked into law enforcement procedures and protocols, that’s pretty damn difficult…

Sooo...who shares this batshit crazy nonsense with whom? Clarence with Ginny, or Ginny with Clarence? And are we *REALLY* meant to believe the Ginny’s coup plans really weren’t shared??

Yeah, as the world’s climates and biospheres continue to deteriorate, economies built on houses of cards continue to collapse under their own weight, the likelihood rapidly escalates that one leader or another decide that it’s all or nothing, as their country falls apart around them. Their only path to ‘survival’ will…

Some of that is a product of the *depth* the submersible is designed to handle. And while 650 feet seems like a lot compared to the maximum depth of other submersibles (and it’s no slouch as far as submersibles go), pressure doesn’t increase linearly. So a submarine that can dive to 900 feet has to forgo a whole lot…

But if these cops have nothing to hide...

Hypocrisy *IS* their drug of choice, after all.

“Exact match” rule targets non-white people almost exclusively — and Republicans *KNOW IT* — because ‘white’ names are generally spelled correctly by other white people. And not-white names are not. And they can be *INTENTIONALLY* misspelled too, by people who are, you guessed it, most often white and Republican. It’s…

However, if that figure is correct, it suggests a colossal fall in value from the last sale of this collection of outlets in 2020, when Red Ventures purchased the entirety of CNET from ViacomCBS for $500 million.

I would say it’s a combination of perception and cost of access. The first one goes both ways: white people thinking ‘this is white-people music’ and black people thinking more or less the same thing (consciously or otherwise in both cases). After all, when you think of black musicians, what kinds of music immediately…

That is more or less what I was going to say. The potential audience size for Prime is massive. So the comparison isn’t exactly fair. But one thing is sure: Rings’ success cannot be disputed, despite all the naysayers and critics. Is that success enough to handle the equally massive production costs associated with…

Private citizens don’t have the right to legally charge you, detain you, imprison you, and even execute you. *THAT* is the difference. And it’s a big one.

That’s the crux of the Tucker Carlson defense: it only works if his viewers *ARE* mentally unfit and need to involuntarily committed.

A coalition of Republican controlled states sue the Biden administration to keep students in perpetual debt to America’s obscenely wealthy credit conglomerates. Because “Fuck society!” is the only thing Republicans ever agree on.

Either version of Mars seems equally possible, and both have equal data and studies backing them up, so I don’t think either viewpoints are going to find their respective smoking gun until, well, it gets excavated in some capacity. And given the depth at which these water deposits might or might not exist, that’s not…

It’s never been a question of whether monsters are among us. It’s the *PROPORTION* of the population that they represent. And success in the modern society is an evolutionary pressure towards sociopathy and psychopathy. What do you think the end result of that pressure will ultimately be? I’ll give you a hint: not…

I freely agree that many people who end up on death row don’t belong there. But Dahmer is not an example of that. Not in any way, shape, or form. He’s an example of letting ‘civility’ get in the way of taking care of unpleasant business. There are lots of things about maintaining a healthy, functioning society that…
