No where does that source say Biden tried to shut down the Internet. The closest is this part

Donald Trump publicly advocated that “in some places” we have to talk about “closing up the Internet.” He got his wish, but it came after him personally following his election in 2016. The very free speech about which he made fun turned out to be rather important to him and his cause.

Also I can’t take a site seriously when one of their sources they link to is the Twitter user “End Wokeness”

There are some parts I agree with, but there’s plenty there that’s right wing dog whistles for “I want to say hateful things and have no consequences” free speech

Also a pretty easy meal if you have depression

For the IAU records on Wikipedia, yeah. A couple things to keep in mind, 80% of the people who complete an ultra marathon are male. And the gap between the sexes, some estimate around 4% for ultra marathons, seems to be trending down.

Here’s better research I found. You’re right, men still win more often and have the records. But honestly it’s more complicated than just who is faster.

It’s in the ultra marathons that women keep up with men and sometimes beat them

There’s a point at which women do tend to get better at endurance racing and often surpass men. And it’s in the ultra long distance races. Which actually tracks, as hunting would have likely been a mix of long and ultra long distance running

Sorry to be a downer, I just learned from reading some of his other comics that he is legitimately a bad person. So I wouldn’t recommend subjecting yourself to his garbage website

His comics hypersexualize women, with constantly bad anatomy and gravity defying clothes in service of that sexualization. Like the pose where a woman has her butt facing the audience, and her chest is somehow rotated 120° so you can see both? Yeah, those poses constantly.

And his main comic is called “Living with Hipstergirl and Gamergirl” with a bunch of his comics are super incely. Like his comic with the classic ‘woman wants nice guy, but not really’ because she says “but not now, when I’m pregnant and out of options”, making fun of fat women, saying women are constantly falsely accuse men of rape, even a comic of a woman posting a sexual picture online with her caption “I’m lonely, anyone want to join me”, and the punchline is her getting mad that someone broke into her house to “join” her. Like she was wrong for that.

He has some weird comics about racism and diversity too. And a comic where someone is literally shoving the gay pride flag down someone’s throat. Just generally redpilled, right wing, incel type garbage. To such an extreme that I legitimately believe this man may be a predator in real life.

If nobody talked about it, how do you know it was normal behavior?

Yeah they do, I’m just pointing out that the law doesn’t say a business has to. Sorry, being pedantic

The people getting up in arms are upset because they see it as a slippery slope. First just the idiots pay for subscriptions, then it creeps into the lives of everyone. And eventually it’s harder to avoid the bullshit than just pay, and the whole market becomes more predatory. Like if the idiots give companies an inch, they’ll eventually take a mile

You can have mine, I’m uninstalling (it’s bloat)

Sadly I think they’re legally allowed to not serve gay people in certain states. The minimum is just hiring gay people :(

No, definitely don’t want a wet sentence.

A moist sentence on the other hand…

I switched banks because of this, from a local credit union to an online only bank. I hate that I had to, but the random online bank treats me better and charges me less

Yeah, probably wrong. There’s not a bunch of third party info on the environmental impact this factory will have, and no evidence anyone was bribed. If it makes you feel better, this isn’t their first factory and I couldn’t find any negative news about that factory either. Community leaders were supportive though, and a bunch of jobs were created.

I did find some articles about the positive environmental impact sodium batteries have from production, to relative ease of recycling, if that makes you feel better.

I can think of an America specific reason to not block all communication with the outside world in a school. Even if every room has a wired landline that worked and was accessible to students and teachers

Be there or

We don’t need evenly distributed emotions! They’ll just trickle down from the most emotional to the rest of us

Black Girl Games is one of several consulting companies that promote more diversity in games and other media. Not to exclude white people completely.

Let’s see what we can agree on here, please stop me when you disagree with my statement.

1. Racism still exists and is a problem in the world today

2. The best tool we have against racism is knowledge and exposure to other cultures and ethnicities

3. Having more than two or three AAA games with a main character that is a minority will give gamers that first hand experience with the represented culture

4. Therefore, more representation is good for combating racism and as an extra benefit is giving more diverse worlds/stories to play

5. There are still a metric buttload of games with white main characters or character creators that let you be white

6. Minorities will be happy to see themselves represented

7. Diversity is not the enemy, and companies are trying to level the playing field, not erase white people

I want to know specifically what your problem with dei efforts are so we can clear up any confusion.

What an interesting read, thank you for the link!

I’d encourage everyone to read more about his life before and after becoming an interrogator, but I found a tl:dr of his methods

The Scharff Technique was defined by four key components: 1) a friendly approach, 2) not pressing for information, 3) the illusion of knowing it all, and 4) the confirmation/disconfirmation tactic. (The latter strategy is when an interrogator presents a claim in the hope that the prisoner will confirm or disconfirm it—it’s what Scharff used to learn about the tracer bullets.)
