Just like humans, dogs seem to associate the nonsense word “bouba” with a rounded shape and “kiki” with a spiky shape, suggesting the connection stems from brain mechanisms that are shared between species

“The greatest evils are not hatched in sordid dens of crime or crude labor camps, which are merely the final physical results. Instead, they are conceived and minuted in quiet, well-lighted, carpeted offices by well-groomed men in white collars who do not need to raise their voices.”

Our entire civilization hinges on the security & stability provided by the insurance industry. Now that industry is deliberately misleading itself about climate breakdown in order to survive. It’s a case of when - not if - this industry will fall.

There's lots of evidence, courtesy of the Israeli media, that the Israeli military killed many Israelis on 7 Oct 2023. The western establishment media has entirely blanked the story. Mehdi Hasan offers a compelling overview: www.youtube.com/watch?v=7BFI...

The Daily Mail used an image of ex-IDF soldier and right wing agitator Avi Yemini as an example of pro-Palestine protesters “clashing” with cops. Righto. It’s been more than 36 hours since this article went live and despite a campaign for a correction by News Cord, the image is still up.

Again I think it's really important to stress that every time Cena comments on Vince, he treats the allegations as true. Just...not a problem for him. And not even in a "it's hard to reconcile with the man I've known for over 20 years" way. And he seemingly never gets asked follow up questions.

If any other Hollywood star spent almost 3 years doing this "I'm just a simple caveman; sexual abuse and trafficking are confusing but acceptable transgressions to me" shit in mainstream interviews, it would actually be a controversy that would negatively affect their career, right?

I think it is evidence of how so much we have been made to think that gaining an audience is the goal of life in this attention-seeking economy that saying "a rapist shouldn't seek a public persona that is available for consumption" is taken as equivalent to saying they "can never rejoin society."

Since WWE's trying to exploit PAC's death, it's time to talk about this: Remember how PAC suddenly had visa issues when AEW started? That's because, when the AEW trademarks were filed, WWE called USCIS to claim he walked out on his visa. After leaving him alone for a year and giving him his release.

Carson is hugely important, but the framing that she got us to get rid of DDT is wrong! Huge industrial dirty tricks campaign against her plus an enormous industry "just asking questions" disinfo program worked, and DDT was only phased out when it stopped working a decade later!
