I think the point was to teach people -- while they're young -- not to take nude selfies regardless of their age, thereby preventing the problem even in adulthood.

Again, not taking nudes of yourself does not prevent people making extremely realistic deep fake nudes of you without your consent which is what the proposed law is about.

Edit: Apparently I have zero reading comprehension and missed the "revenge or" part of it. Give me trash cans.

Veteran Democratic Party strategist James Carville is reportedly furious about the direction the party is headed, expressing to colleagues: “I dedicated the best years of my f-cking life to this party, only to see it taken over by a bunch of stupid motherfu-kers. Everything’s gone to sh-t.”

Carville is especially livid following the DNC leadership election, reportedly saying, “Who are these people? This David Hogg guy and that other sissy (referring to Malcolm Kenyatta) come out of goddamn left field. Well, there goes the male vote forever. Thanks guys! We’re f-cked and we deserve it.”

I just realized something, Trump is throwing haymakers in international politics to drag media attention off the more important battle which is at home, especially with budget cuts. That's why he's talking about buying Greenland, annexing Gaza, and other seemingly out there stuff. It's a gish gallop of political activity that will work simply because the other side can't possibly catch each point of his agenda, it's brilliant.

No, he's dead serious and people will be fools to assume he's not.

Trump has MCKINLEY as his Presidential "Senpai" that he likes to constantly reference in his speeches. McKinley was the biggest proponent of the American EMPIRES Manifest Destiny in Presidential history. Teddy Roosevelt was a pale shadow in comparison. McKinley was murdered by an Anarchist, his great works (Like taking Greenland) were left undone.

I seriously believe Trump views the taking of Greenland as his way to rise higher then McKinley, and if he gets Canada too he can have his tomb built on Mount McKinley and on its walls it will say that "Here lies Donald J. Trump, who fulfilled the Manifest Destiny of the American Nation. Who united the realm of the Americans from the Atlantic to the Pacific, and the Gulf to the Arctic".

So, what is the solution? Spilling EU and Canadian blood or shutting up?

Maybe the EU and Canada can just selectively draft any disingenuous cunt who isn't from Ukraine but had a Ukraine flag icon at the top of their social media pages or on their car between 2022 and present. The ones who had the flag upside down or fail to identify Ukraine on a blank world map can go straight to the front lines.

So a coworker was ranting today about how Elon Musk was going to cut Medicaid. Is there any source on that?

I, and possibly everyone on this website including you, have been posting misinformation to Reddit in hopes of causing them to further spiral.

Lolcow crossover: Dev (aka ShortFatOtaku) is really upset that Trump is scaling back on the "soft power" the U.S. has, and negotiating with Putin to end the war in Ukraine. :story:

Isn’t he a Canadian fake centrist* who’s been caught running gay op campaigns in hopes that Destiny will let him suck is his dick openly?

*fake centrist is just a liberal euro/ Canadian who denies the reality of the Democratic Party while simultaneously believing that a Rachel Maddow straw man of Donald Trump is the Republican Party.

Never turn down a buyout from your employer. It's a giant red flag that bad things are on the horizon and they're willing to pay you to get away clean. When I heard only 4% took the deal I was a little horrified to realize that 96% of civil servants are actual retards.

It depends. Some companies have a policy that prevents you from being rehired if you take a buyout even if it's third party contracting. This doesn't matter for 95% of the population, but if your niche has a major player you are barred from working with, it can be a death sentence for your career. leaving to somewhere else instead of taking the buyout might be a better option. You only need to really consider this option if you are mid career, late fuck it. Early you don't have a choice.
