The Hunter
I'm grabbing a torrent. The plot sounds wonderful but also creepy and horrible. Wonderful because it makes me want to see it. Creepy and horrible because it's as plausible as can be.
Mercenary Martin David is hired by military biotech company, Red Leaf, to go to Tasmania and gather samples of a supposedly extinct marsupial, the thylacine (Tasmanian tiger), with further instructions to kill all remaining tigers to ensure no competing organisation will get their DNA.
I have a question about Iran and war.
I just saw this social media post.
People think Iran closing the strait is their main threat but it's actually flattening Saudi facilities at Abqaiq.
Do you agree? Disagree? Or...?
This article disagrees with me.
While “American Obituary” may recall U2’s classic “Sunday Bloody Sunday” in its virulent commentary, it’s more of a punk rocker with slashing guitars, and Bono delivering words with a hip-hop cadence almost as if to channel a modern-day Bob Dylan protest song.
In a nice touch - the article has the lyrics. My browser crashed ~3m into the song so I missed this gem...
The power of the people is so much stronger than the people in power
I wanted to use the word "suppurating" but google reminded me that's yellow. And yellowish? So it was poetic license a bridge too far.
I was surprised one day when I watched a Youtube vid. Great whites have a pupil that moves around just like ours and Zuck's usually human-like eye mechanisms. The sharks' pupils are usually hidden under that scary black - whatchamacallit. Membrane?
It wasn't this vid but this one is great too - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z1K8ndZDSBI
Too long; didn't watch? You can watch just the first 11 seconds.
~0:437 Jaws is mentioned.
Comments...
There's something hauntingly beautiful about that first shark's eye focusing directly on you but with the emotion and purpose of the look still left shrouded in its darkness. Super cool nonetheless.

Bro when that shark rotated his eye back to look at the camera I almost pooped my pants bro

2:45 THAT'S THE CUTEST SHARK EVER
I'm very surprised how quiet this thread is. I know "Trump could _______...." is an entire genre of news all to itself but still - this is a potential major Trump war for what the pundits love to call "the region".

Edit
Trump on Truth Social 2 hours ago. I created small paragraphs. It's pretty funny. Trump is talking to Starmer like Jesse Pinkman. If I go to war with Iran - you're helping me, binch.
I have been telling Prime Minister Keir Starmer, of the United Kingdom, that Leases are no good when it comes to Countries, and that he is making a big mistake by entering a 100 Year Lease with whoever it is that is “claiming” Right, Title, and Interest to Diego Garcia, strategically located in the Indian Ocean.
Our relationship with the United Kingdom is a strong and powerful one, and it has been for many years, but Prime Minister Starmer is losing control of this important Island by claims of entities never known of before. In our opinion, they are fictitious in nature.
Should Iran decide not to make a Deal, it may be necessary for the United States to use Diego Garcia, and the Airfield located in Fairford, in order to eradicate a potential attack by a highly unstable and dangerous Regime — An attack that would potentially be made on the United Kingdom, as well as other friendly Countries.
Prime Minister Starmer should not lose control, for any reason, of Diego Garcia, by entering a tenuous, at best, 100 Year Lease. This land should not be taken away from the U.K. and, if it is allowed to be, it will be a blight on our Great Ally. We will always be ready, willing, and able to fight for the U.K., but they have to remain strong in the face of Wokeism, and other problems put before them. DO NOT GIVE AWAY DIEGO GARCIA!
Cottagecore Woo Woo should be a song by an unknown French EDM band that becomes a huge worldwide hit but then the band quickly has internecine turmoil. They went from being a group playing weddings for fun and barely making any money at all to a band fighting endlessly the increasing mountain of money from their superhit and who really deserves the lion share of the money because legal credit to the lyrics and to music. And the majority of the lyrics are simply cottagecore woo woo and the music is based on a very popular four chord pop-rock chord progression.
I couldn't think up a funny headline so I stole a joke from Bluesky.*

* I'm grumpy and tired today. So I'm entitled.
Can I trust you to give me accurate legal advice, medical advice, tax advice plus be in a relationship with me plus give me strong passwords because you are smart and clever? Or are you a soulless plagiarism machine that can't be trusted and my relationship to you is corrupting my already deluded mind?
Thanks for the gold kind stranger.
Oh! I forgot! You're smart and clever and funny!
I am.
I love you, Moloch2.
I love you too, Password123!

"Late Show" host Stephen Colbert unloaded..."
Really? What exactly did he say?
"Let’s just call this what it is: Donald Trump’s administration wants to silence anyone who says anything bad about Trump on TV, because all Trump does is watch TV, OK? He’s like a toddler with too much screen time. [He] gets cranky and then drops a load in his diaper."
Oh, yeah. He really unloaded.
What the ever loving fuck. Are these ghouls grown in labs without mothers and without any form of friendship, companionship or love?
What's a very easy way to kill all js at a particular domain? Ideally - I'd like some kind of kill switch I can click.
Example link at news4sanantonio.com. The damn site showed me page as normal but for only literally about one second. And then I got that very annoying error message.
The only way I know is via Ublock Origin. I have to write a couple filters and that's annoying.
