One of my favorite Onion headlines is: "Landlord forced to increase rent because they thought of a bigger number."
Those night laser cubes look pretty bad ass.
Yep, we thought our daughter had died in the night for sure.
Went down the rabbit hole on this guy a bit. He went on to participate in the CyberNinjas audit of Arizona's ballots after the 2020 election. He claimed to have technology that could detect whether ballots had been folded in the mail, and claimed to detect bamboo in "fraudulent Chinese ballots".
He was such a kook, the other kooks rejected him.
Now the politicians want tips?!
Those were fun to peel. I remember spending alot of time at dinner while my parents droned on talking bullshit while I tried to unravel it in one long piece.
In a similar vein, Heinz once used a temporary domain for a promotion accessible by scanning a QR code on their bottles. The promotion ran its course, and they let the domain name expire.
Problem is these bottles were available on restaurant tables for much longer. Didn't take long before scanning the Heinz QR code at your table got you some pornography.
Come to Georgia. It's close. We're a swing state now. We could use your vote.
I went on one of those hollywood tour of homes 1.5 years ago. We pulled up to this same house and the tour guide says Justin Bieber had just moved out after renting it for a while for $200k a month. So now you know that.
I think I know what you're getting at. This lady has been radicalized against Palestinians specifically - likely because of the war coverage she's getting on NewsMax and Fox recently. Blacks and Hispanics are also communities though. The timing is relevant, but hating a whole community of people because of the acts of a few is still what's happening here.
Ours would say:
Party 1
- Round up all minorities and immigrants into camps. Create jobs 'digging the death pits'.
- Replace 'Separation of church and state' in the Constitution with a copy of the 'Right to bare arms' amendment, but this time in all caps.
- Repeal all environmental protection laws. The "free market" will ensure companies don't pollute. Even if they did, climate change is a hoax so it doesn't matter.
- Eliminate all healthcare plans. If God wants you dead, and you're poor, so be it.
- Eliminate term limits for conservative politicians. Implement term limits for liberal supreme court judges.
Party 2
- Laws that aren't just a toddler's power fantasy
I got Green first and Liberal democrats second. Did I win?
As an American, I have no idea if that really fits what I believe my ideology to be.
Alternatives to reddit don't include lemmy. That makes me sad.
I'm jealous. How did you afford that?
Doesn't this effectively kill the argument that the U.S. shouldn't implement socialized healthcare because it wouldn't pay doctors enough - so there wouldn't be enough doctors?
He's marking them off as he goes.
Remember when having a consensual extramarital affair was "the last straw" for the supposed "moral conservatives"?
So the kids need a gun AND dust?
Y'all shut the fuck up and just vote for Biden damn it.
He's not Trump. Do your civic duty and keep the wannabe fascist dictator out of office. He's not Trump. That's all that matters.
Madame Web toilet flush
Since it recently hit Netflix, I decided to see just how bad Madame Web really is.
45 second in, while showing the ever-present Marvel logo with the flipping comic book pages, I notice the sound effect is different. It vaguely sound like pages flipping, but it's definitely a toilet flushing.
Did they buy into the bad reviews and literally decide to say: "check out this turd of a movie" with the intro sound?
Reviews for "Leave The World Behind" being brigaded with copy/paste negative reviews - presumably because it was produced by the Obamas.
Filter to 1-star and note how many reviews are direct copies of each other - many referencing that the Obamas are executive producers.
Pfizer has been sued by Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, who on Thursday accused the drugmaker of misrepresenting the efficacy of its widely-used COVID-19 vaccine.
This all revolves around conservatives focusing on ARR instead of RRR numbers on vaccine efficacy. Here's a description I found of the difference from another article:
> Let’s say a study enrolled 20,000 patients into the control group and 20,000 in the vaccine group. In that study, 200 people in the control group got sick and 0 people in the vaccine group got sick. Even though the vaccine efficacy would be a whopping 100%, the ARR would show that vaccines reduce the absolute risk by just 1% (200/20,000= 1%). For the ARR to increase to 20% in our example study with a vaccine with 100% efficacy, 4,000 of the 20,000 people in the control group would have to get sick (4,000/20,000= 20%).
