Not to mention everyone that paid for tickets.

Trump threatened that a “whole civilization will die tonight,

I haven’t seen any news media yet show the courage to call this what it is, a threat of genocide.

Sure, but the source of the problem is people with Main Character Syndrome that don’t think twice about setting up camp right in the flow of traffic, all for those sweet, sweet fake internet points, or to park their shopping cart across the middle of the aisle while they ponder exactly what flavor of free range organic ketchup they want this week.

what’s behind Japan’s ‘bumping’ trend?

The author is constantly trying to make this a “gender dynamics” thing, but I knew the cause before reading the article. It’s sprinkled throughout…

while some wondered if it was wise to take photographs in the middle of a packed intersection.

At the very end of the article, the author finally cones around to the simple answer.

She said she had been criticised and insulted online for taking photos of her daughter, who was uninjured, on a pedestrian crossing.

“I admit I may have been careless about the flow of people. But it wasn’t like I was ignoring traffic rules,” she said, adding that she had been following Chinese-language advice provided on Go Tokyo, a website run by the Tokyo Convention and Visitors Bureau, which tells visitors they “can even stand at the intersection and take a picture”.

I feel like this is a recent problem in a lot of places, and it’s not just tourists taking pictures. It seems like it’s much more common these days for people to be blocking the aisle in the grocery store with zero awareness of those around them, as just one example I’ve witnessed repeatedly. It’s almost as if COVID taught people to be self absorbed assholes and not give a shit about others.

even sold their homes.

LOL!!! 'Cause they’re gonna need that money in heaven. These people have absolute shit for brains.

The Qatari government said two Iranian drones hit a QatarEnergy facility and that authorities are assessing the scale of damage. The country’s LNG production accounts for roughly 20% of global supply.

So, for two drones to “halt 20% of global LNG production”, as the headline claims, they would have had to disable the entire production capacity of the entire country of Qatar, not just part of one facility.

I assume Bibi ordered them to intentionally let that one through to drum up support for continued strikes against Iran.

Hypocrisy 101

Breaking News! Scientists confirm gravity still works.

Nah, he might just be sleeping through a cabinet meeting. You know he’s lying when his lips are movin.

Decided to go look up who this guy is.

In 2009, Wenders signed a petition in support of director Roman Polanski, who had been detained while traveling to a film festival in relation to his 1977 sexual abuse charges

Someone check the Epstein files for this guy.

Riccardo had boarded the bus … and he had to get off.

I’ll give a hesitant pass to any non-italian speaking riders that didn’t comprehend what was going on, but any Italian speakers that understood, especially any other regular riders that recognized the kid and didn’t come to his defense should be absolutely ashamed of themselves.

Easy mistake for a newcommer to make. Now you know. Welcome, and keep it up.

FYI, you can (should) edit the title in this one so that it complies.

Dammit. I meant the third bullet in Rule #1… or something. 🫣

Rule #3 #1 (third bullet): Title must match the article headline

Yeah, if the police have to take them all into custody to investigate if it was real or not… It wasn’t being sold as clearly fiction.

All three streamers were then held in January last year but released after they insisted the on-screen violence was all part of “an act aimed at creating buzz so as to earn money”.

Act or not, I cannot quantify the utter disdain I have for anyone who wants to watch garbage like that. Absolutely shitty human trash, every damn one of them.

Edit: And just to be abundantly clear, I’m not talking about the two pieces of garbage that just got taken into custody. I’m taking about the thousands of pieces of human feces that were getting their jollies watching another person get abused.

I don’t recall God being a major contributor to Linux. There are lots of talented open source devs that are worthy of some gratitude, though.

I found a bunch of “reputable” news sites all talking about this as if it just happened. I had to really dig to find something actually posted a year ago, but… there it is.

I fucking hate this “rush to publish, fact check later never” news cycle.

So, the date in the video above seems to be intentionally misleading. Downvoting.

Where are you getting that information? The article very clearly indicates that this happened on Jan 20, 2026, and there’s no date that I see visible in the video (in the article).

Edit. The video posted above actually does have a date, and it’s January 20, 2026. So, not a year ago at all.
