Took me about 7 seconds of thinking before I realized you meant Mars. Couldn't remember a God named Pepsi for the life of me.

I have nothing to add to your comment other than the fact that your text person clearly has a large nose and I think that's a stylistic choice and I appreciate that as someone who also has a large nose.
Oh, and fuck Putin.

Mayor Eric Adams sues 17 charter bus companies for $700 million for transporting asylum seekers to NYC

Suing the companies for engaging in a contract that is legally dicey (potentially trafficking), not the drivers who drove the busses

He's not complaining about his income. He's saying "I've reached a level of income that SHOULD entitle me to the American dream, but even at this amount I too am barred"
When we say 'eat the rich' we don't mean 'shit on what is effectively what's left of the middle class'.

They don't have press conferences, raise the bridges to stop traffic out of the city, put out (this many) ground units to question and collect evidence for every murder in New York. Not by a long shot. The location of the murder and identity of the victim are playing a big factor in this. Because coverage happened, they're responding. If there were 270 news articles written about Non-Descript-Murdered-Citizen #6hey might give it the same attention.
There were 808 murders in New York in 2020. Did you see this response from those deaths, do you recall?

I'm not here to argue semantics, Hamas are terrorists, Netanyahu is a terrorist.

In this instance they were looking into the concept of learned helplessness, where they taught 'nothing can be done to fix your situation' to one group, and then removed the obstacle stopping them from leaving the shocking room, and found that, after they'd learned helplessness, they were not inclined to seek the not-shocking floor even if the door was wide open for them to move.
It's sad, and I genuinely don't know of the ethics behind the study, but the research itself was sound and led to further studies attempting to see if this effect applies more generally to other animals. Behavior is important to understand and study, and watching the little lab mice get PTSD in college was not a fun day, and still makes me sad (i adopted two rats, after) but the tests one can run on lab mice with PTSD is really useful for understanding the human brain.

I think he's more so saying that last week tonight feels frustrating because it points out clear issues that the average American should be frustrated about but then juxtaposes it with average Americans actively siding with the system or being complacent in it.

Discord Now Explicitly Bans Misgendering and Deadnaming Transgender People on the Platform
Reply in thread
Please detail to me how discord, a private company, banning people who intentionally misgender or dead name others is a violation or the first amendment right in the United States?
It doesn't say 'intentionally' as you've pointed out, but the wording is clear and pretty reinforced throughout the article, just below the following quote in the article is another 3 'targeted' explanations:
"The update explicitly addresses behaviors considered violations of its hate speech policy, including targeted misgendering and deadnaming of transgender individuals."
You can't say bomb in an airplane. You can't shout fire in a building. You can't shout removed in a Walmart. No one's saying you can't THINK whatever you feel like and SAY whatever you want in your own spaces, but you don't own discord or the plane or the building or the Walmart so you gotta follow other people's rules. Woe is you

Yeah it's not even just that, she's unhinged as hell. Each new controversy has a longer and weirder NFO or backstory or 16 pages of screenshots from her discord from fanboys that want her feet pics.
I love piracy, I love a good radical, I don't love the weird vitriolic hate and self worship she spews out.
