That isn’t a false statement at all. They didn’t say they stopped selling it in 2014, only that it was released then.

No, you should definitely double down on your fascism. That’s a great side of history to be on.

Holy shit boys, we’ve got ourselves a bona fide CCP bot over here.

Across the high-income countries surveyed, a median of 70% view China unfavorably.

Across the middle-income countries surveyed, a median of 56% view China favorably.

This is worrying. China doesn’t give a fuck what high income countries think about them because we still buy their shit anyway. They care about the middle and lower income countries, though, because they can exploit minorities and pay lower income to outsource to them (which is crazy considering how little they pay their own laborers).

It doesn’t matter what Democrats want. Ask a Republican what they want, and then do the opposite.

I really think it’s just because Kenan has been doing it all of his life, and Samberg really started up after college. Not to say that there is anything wrong with that, I love Samberg, but I think it’s just the Kenan feels more comfortable with it, and is more used to that particular grind.

Yeah, Hateful 8 only pulled 150m on a 50m budget, and that’s with Tarantino’s brand on it… Westerns are a niche market, now, and it takes a shake up to the formula, like Westworld, to grab a broader audience.

5/6 of those will get you banned from the strip club.

Lol, it certainly gets a lot of hate.

All of this reads like an unhinged Facebook post about the power of crystals.

Looks more like that was the original color and there was a rug over it. The rest has faded in the 50 years since it was laid down.

I pledge Ally Sheedy to the slag
Of the United Skates of Emilio
And to the repugnant
for Richard Stanz
One naked undergarment
Invisible man
With Liberace and puffed rice for all.

Here’s a non-AI summary.

The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation put up $200m to fund the vaccine in the 90s. Unfortunately, the vaccine wasn’t great, and there were other methods (like genetically altering the mosquitos) that were a better use of additional funds. The vaccine took a backseat for a while, until another company came in with a new vaccine. They went through all of the trials in 2015, but the factory they’d planned to produce in wasn’t able to meet the demand, and the vaccine itself required multiple year long boosters or it was near worthless. Again, the vaccine was shelved. Then, finally, an Indian company created one in December 2021 that worked well and could be quickly produced. 25 million doses were made and shipped in 2024.

The headline seems so dramatic, but this is all a bunch of good people doing good things and trying to help overcome a deadly disease.

Roger couldn’t remember if Foreman B. Eavers specified whether the 90 degree bend was to the left, or the right, so he got one of each, just to be safe.

For once, I agree with the message.

“But I don’t have a cloaca.”

Context, if you want it:

Don’t let Janeway find out…

This shit makes me so happy. I miss my dreamcast. I was the only person I knew with one, and I would brag about it all the time.

If I need precise aiming, then it’s keyboard and mouse. If not, then I’ll go with a controller just so I can lean back and enjoy things.

The real solution is that new housing permits cannot be granted until a certain threshold of low income housing is met. For instance, if 3% of the rental market is low income housing, and the city ordinance requires 15%, no new multi-unit housing construction permits are granted until the minimum threshold of 15% is met. Don’t let them build their “luxury” condos until the needs of the city are met. Unfortunately, money talks, and right now the people building the condos have a lot of it.
