yesterday, by Tim Stone
If it happens I assume Rouhani will just print out a copy of the JCPA and pretend Trump came up with it
That's the good stuff
National Security Advisor Lou Dobbs has a stroke
Oh no it's even worse he's going to Mulvaney Pompeo
 
12:22 AM
@Memor-X the stupid thing is HE DIDN’T NEED TO
It was all just a show
@TimStone huh?
@TimStone what’s JCPA?
 
The "Iran Deal"
 
12:36 AM
@Stormblessed well he felt he needed to to waste time, the thing i can't wrap my head around is why people let that happen
or maybe there's some other missing "context" that made reading Dr Seuss remotely relevant
otherwise one could go "i would like to start off this debate with my 24 hour stand up routine, Charles, get my crap bucket ready"
 
 
10 hours later…
10:55 AM
This just screams "digital genius"...
 
11:36 AM
lol
So I guess mass shootings in retail locations are too common now so 145 CEOs of well-known companies are sending a letter to the Senate pleading to them to do something
 
Hmmmmm, makes sense. Dead children are just meh, but hurting profits that cannot stand
Do they also rub their ears, thinking about 'Females' and latinum?
 
11:54 AM
@Elva At this point whatever moves the needle I guess, far too many people dead already. Pretty ridiculous we let it get to this though :/
 
Yeah, it's insane
Oh, apparently the EU is open to another extension to article 50 if there is a new election
That's good!
 
12:10 PM
@TimStone I predict that before the end of the next presidential term, we're going to see a spree killing with over 100 fatalities if no changes are made to gun policies. Like, we were EXTREMELY lucky that the shooting in Nevada "only" caused 58 fatalities. there were 851 injuries besides that from bullets and the stampede panic afterwards. Could easily have been hundreds
 
12:34 PM
I realised yesterday we forgot to remember the central truth of 9/11: that Rudy Giuliani put the city's emergency response center in its largest target and underfunded the fire department because he liked to play favourites within the city administrations #neverforget
 
Yeaaah I read that and had the same thought...
 
The follow-up sentence is basically "chuckles Just wait until you're in the camps to complain"
 
12:58 PM
Anyway the correct follow up question to that sentence is "So when are you planning to do that?"
 
1:20 PM
 
1:46 PM
@GnomeSlice yeessss, because nothing is being done about opioids or about smoking
 
@GnomeSlice I wonder how many deaths are due to alcohol each year
Apparently even more than Opioids (88K per year)
 
Probably, definitely if you include indirect deaths
 
It's easier to do something before the problem becomes bigger too, so it's tricky to separate overreaction from that
 
2:31 PM
Alright I need a marine biologist to tell me they didn't just colour that sucker in with a Sharpie because it definitely looks like it
 
@TimStone Did Trump catch it?
 
The federal and Nova Scotia governments are making an initial payment to Glen Assoun, a man who spent 17 years in prison after being wrongfully convicted of murder. cbc.ca/news/canada/nova-scotia/…
> The amount, which is not being disclosed, is split evenly by the two levels of government.
 
2:58 PM
So after years of "he's not a Nazi, that was just a joke" and "people don't understand gamer humor", the straw that breaks the camel's back for some Pewdiepie fans is... donating to the Anti-Defamation League?
 
From what I heard it was his nazi fans that were like "He's being blackmailed into doing this"?
 
yeh i heard about that too while listening to the Phillip DrFranco Show
it seems more of a move by him to move away from his past after the fuckwit from Christchurch went and tied pewdiepie's name to the horrific act
 
I mean, if I had somehow gained a Nazi following for some reason and donating to the Anti-Defamation League got them to unsubscribe from me, I would probably... keep doing that?
 
yeah apparently his subreddit is in shambles
 
>
From what I heard it was his ---nazi--- fans that were like "He's being blackmailed into doing this"?
Fixed that for you
That didn't work
The joke was all his fans are nazis
 
3:11 PM
@Yuuki yeah sounds like a good idea
Also let's not pretend this was a "woooh giant donation!" this is maybe a days worth of profit for him, probably less
 
I mean, most of my charitable donations consist of a day's worth of profit more or less.
Maybe two days.
 
Actually some articles say he probably makes about that much only from youtube ad revenue...
So probably a lot less then a day
@Yuuki and with scales of income, a day's worth of profit means a loooot more to you then it does to him
So it'd probably be like... passing a 20 to a charity
Commendable but... not a big deal

In case Brexit wasn't confusing enough already, EU Fears Boris Johnson Will Persuade Hungary to Veto Brexit Delay

Q: Is low emotional intelligence associated with right-wing and prejudiced attitudes?

Jerome ViveirosAccordiing to Diply, Researchers in Belgium have linked a lack of emotional intelligence with right-wing political views, reports PsyPost. The study, published in Emotion, found that those who lack the ability to understand and manage emotions are more likely to have right-wing and prejudice...

also that's on the HNQ list now @MadScientist, so I'm sure it won't generate any fun comments drama for you to moderate :P
 
5:38 PM
@Wipqozn not as bad as I'd have expected
 
 
1 hour later…
7:05 PM
Welcome to your authoritarian state. Everything is far from fine.
Yep, still works
 
7:46 PM
@GnomeSlice So what you're saying is that there's a huge untapped market for black hole Rogaine?
 
8:40 PM
I regret to inform you about whatever this is, Liz Cheney and Rand Paul performing arts
 
8:54 PM
@TimStone what the hell even this?
Like... why?
 
@Yuuki Look, just because you refuse to embrace 2019 doesn't mean Mr. Angry Neighbor and Ms. Persecution Complex have to do the same. This is their time!
Things may never will always be this dumb again!
 
I just can't really picture myself waking up one day and going "You know what? I'm going to call this person out. Because."
 
9:13 PM
So Apparently PDP isn't gonna donate to the ADL anymore because reasons?
 
"oh hey i guess instead of a minority of my viewers being nazis, it's a majority"
 
@Yuuki do you even Twitter bro?
 
@puzzlepiece87 In fact, I do not.
> Let Freedom Wing
🤔
I forgot about that edit spam prevention bug.
 
9:42 PM
@Yuuki They're trying to fight over who gets to curry favour with the big boy President and also this is hell, is what the hell this even is
 
 
1 hour later…
10:47 PM
Sooooo I guess pewdiepie is clearly on the pro-nazi side
 
11:03 PM
@Elva was going to give him a chance since it looked like he wanted to change, now fuck him
