Plastics industry: “See?! We told you plastic decomposes and doesn’t just stay in landfills forever. Happy now?”

One out of eight Americans have worked at McDonald’s.

404 Media is doing excellent work; if you like this kind of thing you might want to sign up for their newsletter.

The average Black American is ~1/3 white (because of all the rape of enslaved women, basically) so he’s not that much off the average there.

No, they’re still racist because their actions (e.g. voting for Trump) increase racial inequality.

The simplest explanation is that they didn’t do any tests, and this whole kerfuffle is a very successful act of revenge on the IOC, Khelif, and the rest of the sports world.

True, but largely irrelevant. There is no evidence that Khelif has XY chromosomes aside from an accusation by one corrupt Russian boxing official, made after Khelif beat a Russian boxer. They have not produced the test, said where it was done or what the results were.

Here’s an AP News article with lots of information on the IBA and why their claims about Khelif are suspect: https://apnews.com/article/olympics-2024-khelif-russia-boxing-b53b1edda21139d14a572bd35ca440e6

They want them to be so desperate to keep their 3 shitty minimum-wage jobs that they won’t complain about mistreatment. It’s slavery with extra steps.

“Other children my own age”, sure. You weren’t seducing 22-year-old men.

The right thing to do if a 12-year-old makes sexual advances on an adult is for the adult to report it because the 12-year-old is probably being abused!! Not to have sex with them!! What the fuck?! (Not that I believe this shit for a second but even if it were true that makes him just as much of an abuser.)

I believe they do this the same way they do traffic jams, by seeing how many android phones are at the location vs. average.

Too bad he took a 19-year-old with him :/

I’m not sure; usually this language is used when someone is convicted, that the sentence they receive from the judge has to fall in that range. I don’t know what “sentenced to 15 years to life” means except that the judge intends that she spend at least 15 years in prison.

And Onion articles, and other satire.

Yeah, before this rule clarification, there was a magic force field protecting all women’s bathrooms from rapists. It was literally impossible for women to get raped before we decided to protect the basic human rights and dignity of trans people. I’ve certainly never been sexually assaulted or harassed by cis men, but now I’ll have to live in fear, because of woke.

It’s not actually a new law, it’s a clarification of a law that already exists. The supreme court ruled in 2020 that it’s illegal to harass employees on the basis of sexuality or gender identity. The EEOC just issued a clarification that misgendering and bathroom bans count as harassment.

The fix is a screw to actually affix the pedal cover to the pedal (instead of just glue). So, yeah, cheap, but probably fixes the problem. (Not the next fatal problem they find though…)

You didn’t read the article. These are images that appeared in the documentary and were not marked as generated. It was implied they were real photos.
