Every time someone tells me that the US government has done something absurd, I have to figure out two things: Is it true? Is it a big deal? At the moment I'm trying to figure out whether Ross Ulbricht of Silkroad fame really spoke at the Trump convention.

There's a hauntingly beautiful irony in these morons thinking that carefully crafted American hegemony was actually weak and woke, and they would be the ones who would do Power and Dominance properly, and immediately bringing everything crashing down

I don't think Ukraine attacked Putin's residence. I don't think they want him dead at this point in time. The risk he'd be replaced by someone actually competent is too big.

I'm reading a lot about 86 46 or 86 47. I assume that 46 and 47 refer to Biden and Trump, respectively (being the 46th and 45th/47th president, respectively). But 86 seems to stand for 'kick them out' and I don't know why.

I do believe that a gathering of enemy soldiers in uniform is a valid military target, and if large enough justifies what's called 'collateral damage'. That said, if I were Zelensky, I would not attack the parade. I would use the fact that Putin amassed his defences there to attack somewhere else.

At the counter-rally to a TERF/Nazi rally in Melbourne. One of the TERFs just said that she was happy to side with Trump for his attacks on trans people, and that it was more important that trans women lose their rights than it is to keep abortion rights. TERFs are not feminists.

I cannot emphasize enough how stupid it is to publicly threaten DOGE employees with violence. You might think it's fun to blow off steam, but trust me: the FBI raiding your home at 5am is not fun. A federal criminal case will bankrupt you and ruin your life and career.

I sometimes think of the scene in Clerks II where Randal tries to rehabilitate the word "porch monkey". Randal is an idiot, but to be honest, I see this same thing in real life so often. Sometimes, out of ignorance, we say or do hurtful stuff, without even knowing that there is something to know.

I never doubted that many women experience sexual violence in their live, but I always assumed that it was a small minority of men doing it. A new study finds that about one in four men admits to having perpetrated sexual violence, that's a sobering thought. www.theage.com.au/national/sex...

Sexual violence ‘disturbingly common’, says new study

From harassing and threatening someone for sex to rape and stealthing, research shows one in five admit to sexual violence.
