The red cross used to run this scam where every time any kind of local tragedy happened (, usually a house or apartment fire) a red cross rep would appear on local TV saying that the red cross is best to help and that's why it's so important to donate to the red cross. Locals would open their wallets and donate to the red cross. And then the local victims would get prsctically nothing. When pressed, the red cross would say that they never said donations would go to local victims and that they had to help people everywhere, not just here. They don't do this anymore because everyone caught on. Now, if there is a fire, locals organize and choose a trusted local to handle the money. Donations go directly to victims. The red cross can't steal the money and use it to move illegals into your country.

@Wormwood@poa.st I remember when I first learned about HP Lovecraft and they praised him for "cosmic horror" where the horror is just about the reality of the universe and the existence of ancient gods that don't care about you. Then I actually read it and turns out it's all about race and societal decline. Almost all of it.

Sony has been a POS company for a long time, but this is terrible for their users. Linux +Steam forever.

Baseless but impossible to disprove ai allegations are the new way to get rid of whites.

@sickburnbro It's amazing that this hasn't broken containment. In 1976 there were 10 million illegals. After fifty years averaging one million additional illegals per year, the government now says there are 11 million illegals. The actual truth? I think they are also lying about the number of legal immigrants. Visas and green cards are being issued way above the legal cap.

Most people expect national park entrance fees to go towards taking care of national parks. What were Democrats using the money for? What do Democrats think the money should be used for?

Also Trump is a real estate guy with experience taking care of historic properties. I trust him to take care of all these monuments much more than I trust the people criticizing him.

This is the police. Your son is dead. We're going to need you to come down so we can check your phone for racism.

@Scuttlest@retro-gaiden.com I've never played this game but there were tons of ads for it on tv when it came out.

Turtle wow shutting down may 15. One of the more innovative private wow servers. Wonder what happened. It seemed like they were making good money and they are in Russia, so actibliz can't touch them.

@coolboymew@shitposter.world I never played it but they expanded on vanilla wow in a way that was consistent with the lore, while also being different than bliz's expansions.

Best one yet.

Drink your orange juice.

WOTC isn't messing around when it comes to union busting. They've unleashed the most powerful weapon in their arsenal. That's right: dead naming.

New serious sam out today. Less than $20. Very tempted but I'm going to pass. I'm just too busy right now. I love serious sam though. At the same time everyone else was making military shooters, they made a run and gun shooter.

Inside job at gamescom.

Why do they always use retirees as the example? The fact of the matter is that most retirees are in a much better position to pay $10k per year in property taxes than young workers.

@vitalis@dirtyknight.life my junior year I stayed up all night and wrote a ten page paper. Got an A 😆

In Japan they play basedball.

Systematically drive every right winger from industry. Claim right wingers just do don't this industry. DOJ civil rights should investigate for systematic discrimination against men.

Tips are tax free now. Help everyone avoid taxes by tipping generously.

Low budget horror movie supremacy. I am not a horror fan, but I have to give it to horror fans. They consistently show up for low budget movies, which ensures a steady stream of horror movies. I wish Sci-fi fans would do the same thing, but we won't even get out of bed for less than $100 mil in sfx alone.

People were using chatgpt in cursor? These guys are going to be legendary for getting mogged simultaneously by Claude, composer, and grok. And the fact that they stole an open source nonprofit, closed the source, and then looted it.

I'm against slavery, but anyone who says this should be sentenced to five years of labor in grain fields and bread bakeries. Maybe then they will understand.

We extradited a couple drug lords from another country. Now we are unable to convict them in DC because the juries keep deadlocking. People are thinking it's an anti trump protest. I think there are jurors and potentially judges on the take.

Yet another example of "The commies will never leave you alone." The state of New York is going after the amish over vaccinations. Apparently some are planning to flee the state if they lose their case. Now it looks like Pennsylvania is planning similar action. The governor is proposing regulations to give health officials draconian authority over vaccinations, while at the same time lying about measles cases in Lancaster. It's crazy in both states because their is no epidemic of measles cases coming from the amish. It's not happening; it's not going to happen because of limited interactions between amish and non-amish children. So what's the purpose of this tyranny? I can't help but think it's payback for the amish showing up to vote for Trump in 2024.

New life goal just dropped.

I was really hoping for new Mario or 2d metroid, but I'm in for switch sports resort. And the DK challenge.

Cringe US Senate won't pass massively popular SAVE act with fifty percent of votes. Chad EU parliament passes massively unpopular mass surveillance bill with less than 50% of votes.

Bobby's World was an amazing cartoon.

Nice.

Do people actually believe the French Revolution was a good thing?

Local comic shop is selling bulk Funko pops. Hopefully that signals the end of those cursed figurines.

@deprecated_ii@poa.st Some companies use "director" as a synonym for "manager" which is a low level position. Which is stupid. But not as stupid as making half your company "VP" which a lot of companies also do. Job titles are almost always stupid. The H1B visa should be abolished, but the government needs to at least raise their minimum pay to $200k or something. H1B was meant for highly skilled workers. $53k is not what highly skilled workers make in 2026.

@vitalis@dirtyknight.life reminds me of a famous incident of mass hysteria: The laughter epidemic began on January 30, 1962, at a mission-run boarding school for girls in Kashasha. It started with three girls and spread throughout the school, affecting 95 of the 159 pupils, aged 12–18.[2][3] Symptoms lasted from a few hours to 16 days, averaging around 7 days.[4] The teaching staff were unaffected and reported that students were unable to concentrate on their lessons. The first outbreak in Kashasha lasted roughly 48 days. The school was forced to close on March 18, 1962.[5] When it reopened on May 21, a second phase of the outbreak affected an additional 57 pupils. The all-girl boarding school reclosed at the end of June.

In theory, this provision also protects citizens from being discriminated against. In practice, it is nearly impossible for a citizen to make a discrimination claim, despite widespread discrimination against American citizens.

@sickburnbro "right to work" just means that union membership cannot be required for a job.

@internetarchive @maria we must preserve as much as we can from the pre-ai era.

Have a great weekend everyone.

It's scared.

I'm a loner Dottie. A rebel. You don't want to get mixed up with a guy like me.
