If only we could get non-corrupt politicians and the political will to invest in infrastucture without the need for “profit” from public goods.

Vili Fualaau?

Let the death of Saburo Arasaka be a lesson to us all: even 150+ year old bastards can get choked the fuck out

Or maybe it’s a gen Z/millennial feminist message?

Hey now, two things can’t be true at once. It’s 2024. Israel can’t be committing genocide WHILE Hamas is a brutal fundamentalist regime. What are you expecting, some kind of nuance? Pfft.

These surgeons were moving fast, I can see it

Everybody was limb-fu cutting (hiya!)

Those cats were fast as lightning (hiya!)

lol I keep working out my biceps and my calves keep getting muscly but not my biceps. Must be my body!

A true house cat attack is almost a guaranteed hospital visit.

And these public school administrators are making 140,000k a year???

The article states he ate “four to five dried mushrooms.” That could be anywhere from like 2grams to probably 7 grams. A little over seven g is considered a “heroic” dose. It can fuck you up. I’ve done it, but thankfully didn’t lose what little dick I was given from birth

Is it really called a “repugnant clause?”

Waymo offering human remains delivery services should death occur on your journey

I mean, striving for nirvana is an ambition.

It’s propaganda because it works. Unfortunately. Because now these are just known manipulation tactics proven to work. And we still don’t really have a way to fight them—except that one old fashioned way and, hey, Nazis can get killed as far as I’m concerned.

I mean, I get it. But I probably would. You’re talking millions and millions of euros PER YEAR. I say this as not a millionaire, but that’s the kind of money that you can be fine with for the rest of your life. Not to mention he’s a more habdsome, multi lingual footballer, so he could easily retire into a life of leisure making appearances, commentating, etc.

And we’re not talking about lowering from 27.7M to 100,000. We’re talking, like, worst case scenario wiping away bonuses and living of NINE MILLION a year.

These are multimillionaires. And we’re talking like they can’t be slightly less super wealthy? Cmon.

Well, the 2023/24 season, with bonuses and fixed salary, the reported figure is €27.7M. That’s a ton of money. The last president of the club was signing outrageous contracts, basically putting the club in the financial straits they’re in now. And during this time of absurd contracts/wages, La Liga was basically folding their hands saying go ahead. But now, with a new president, the wages have been slashed across the board, but Frankie is still on his old contract. And with Covid, there were deferments with payment, so that boosts the numbers a little.

All in all, Tebas is a piece of shit, but the last train wreck of a president basically walked hand in hand with tebas, destroying the club. Now that they’re trying to be financially responsible and wipe away the issues, La Liga keeps setting lower and lower thresholds for Barca to meet, while other clubs aren’t getting nearly as low of windows. It’s a shit show. It’s not Frankie’s fault, it’s largely Bartomeu’s fault, but Tebas is also gleefully holding down the club as much as possible. In the midst of all this, it’s nice to see the team turning things around finally. But I also say that as a fan. De jong is under no obligation to reduce his wages. But…it’s also like…the other years of massive amounts of money weren’t enough? And he’s been out injured for months. Eh. It’s just crazy the financial situation at Barca. Again, largely falling on the shoulders of bartomeu. Other players stepped in to help. Frankie didn’t. Those are just facts.

[McDonalds] said it cares “deeply” about all employees and promised that - working with franchisees - it would “play our part alongside government, NGOs [Non-governmental organisations] and wider society to help combat the evils of modern slavery”.

What fucking empty fucking tripe. They couldn’t give half a fuck. Burn all corps to the fuckin ground.

“WHY CANT YOU JUST BE NORMAL?!?”

Is that still true? Like, as in, updated in the past year-to-the-last-few-months? War (even though they’re not calling it war) is rising in many places.

Thanks, Woke.
