I remember her, she would keep talking about how people in Africa and China would work for so much cheaper and that Australians or whatever should get used to it.

I think I remember her father hated her when he almost passed away.

It's crazy. There's a lot of people that like to cut off their noses to spite their face.

    Elon Musk poured an eye-watering amount of money for the Republicans.

    More money than Soros ever did which was the Republican boogeyman.

    You have to counter that while you have the chance.

    It's one thing to be uneducated prick like RFK but the fact that these guys are so proud of it and so happy to be misinform is fucked.

    How do you so little about history or scientific literature.. at the very least -- has this guy ever even heard of what Genghis Khan did?

    Patrick Boyle takes a look at the political strife online and how it's related to bot networks and how it isn't.

    I know there's no political videos in this community but this isn't really political itself, just an analysis on ragebait and others using politics.

     

    Saw this on YouTube, thought it seemed interesting.

    This may sound positive and it is that the shitty diamond market is eating it but there's more to it and another monopoly emerges.

    I don't really have many people to talk to about this but I finished my run with my run club and as I was leaving to go back to my car when I saw a Shiba Inu run towards me. I thought to myself: "that is a beautiful dog". Then I noticed no leash on the dog and then I saw two young adult men (I'm 40, everyone younger than me looks like a teenager so I dunno) run as fast as they could and they screamed, "STOP THAT DOG!"

    I've never owned a dog so I knelt down to the dog running towards me (behind me is traffic) and I spread my arms to block it and slowly wrapped my arms around the dog trying not to spook it. I put my fingers into the hole in the collar (where the leash hook would go ... I don't own a dog ... so I don't know what the names are) while trying to comfort a dog that wanted absolutely nothing to do with me.

    The two boys eventually caught up and I noticed neither had a leash and both kept a distance from me. One of them keeled over and the other one was trying to catch their breath while making a phone call. I said, "where's the leash?" They were like, "it's not our dog we're door-to-door salespeople". Apparently, they knocked on a door and the dog darted out and they tried their best to catch it. The one not keeled over in pain phoned the owner (I have no idea how he had her number) but she eventually arrived and picked up the dog.

    The owner didn't really say thank you or made eye contact with me at all. She took her dog and put it into the back of the car. I didn't really blame her for that. I can just imagine the shock and everything not really registering.

    I just thought it was a funny incident on my side and I was just happy to help.
