Comparing Hamas, and realistically all Gazans, to Nazi Germany is very clearly exterminationist rhetoric. 🇺🇦🇮🇱 people on twitter are constantly wanting to do a woke genocide.

There are finally good posts in BlueSSky
Oh cool it's that person who talks about Elon Musk all the time and tried to spread rumors that voting for Kamala would be some kind of harm reduction before her hard transphobic pivot. I really need more people like Juniper in my feed. Thank God, I might actually consider using BlueSky seriously now. The nightmare is over.
I can't believe a new york times reporter would say this
I love how mongodb's language looks like it was designed by first year CS students that just wrote their first parser.
I recently updated Android Firefox and the tab list got worse. It's supposed to be a vertical swipe to scroll and a horizontal swipe to close a tab but now if my vertical swipe is just a couple degrees off perfectly vertical it gets read as horizontal and closes a tab.
I hate updates I hate updates
Soylent: "the way i learned to stay sane on the dating apps is to use them extremely passively and never get attached to a match until you've met in person, it feels bad but you have to have a bit of a wall of dehumanization in front of you on these things"

So Dandadan is just gonna be a horny anime? Shame cause there seems to be some interesting stuff going on and the animation is really good, but if every woman is going to end up half naked for horny teenage fans I don't think this is one for me.
So I looked it up and saw some items of concern:
It has been serialized in Shueisha's Shōnen Jump+
Momo Ayase is a high school girl
while Momo is abducted by aliens called the Serpo, who claim they want to mate with her as an experiment.
And I immediately noped out. I am done with high-school-settings anime entirely, I won't watch another. I am doubly done with anything remotely connected to Shonen Jump because it always ends up as filler trash. I am triply done with SA played for comedy, particularly in combination with the victim being a 15-year-old girl.
Friends tried recommending it to me and I was like "that the one with aliens doing SA on a high school girl played for jokes?" and they didn't say no.
The overwhelming positive response is pretty strange
There are moments where I'm like "ok yeah cool so this is why people fw this" and then like a minute later boobs will be gainaxing all over the screen like wtf.
For alot of older Jewish Americans seeing the rise of Israel was very inspring and subsequently Israel has been seen through rose colored glasses by these people. My grandfather was 23 when the Nakba happened, but to him Israels founding was a miracle. To him it made Jews look strong, whereas the holocaust was the epitome of weakness.
That… sounds very similar to how many ordinary Italians felt about Benito Mussolini. Most Italians beyond the Kingdom of Italy had little to no interest in Fascist politics. They just liked Mussolini because he was a ‘tough guy’ and an Italian who was well respected throughout the Western world (as well as the Empire of Japan). Since other societies tended to look down on Italians, they couldn’t afford to be picky.
It was only a few years ago that I learned that European gentiles tended to stereotype Jews as scrawny weaklings:
At the Second Zionist Congress, held in Basel in 1898, Max Nordau had coined the catchphrase Muskeljudentum.⁹ In its spirit the Zionist Maccabi associations strongly supported the idea of physical regeneration through body training. Influenced by Friedrich Ludwig Jahn and the German Turner (gymnastics) movement, the activities of the Jewish sports clubs in Europe sought to develop a social, religious, and ethnic climate to counteract the stereotype of the “feeble Jew.”
There was a similar motive in attempting to colonize Palestine during the 1880s:
For Chissin, these violent confrontations with local Arabs symbolized the revival and regeneration of a Jewish masculinity and virility so fundamental to the development of Jewish nationalism and Jewish defense forces.¹⁷
I don’t know if the ‘scrawny Jew’ stereotype remains widespread (it probably doesn’t), but it feels like society is slowly drifting away from the attitude that ‘weak’ people are somehow valueless, inevitably outdating another justification for Zionism.

This looked like gibberish to me:

Parents are bad and intellectual property is a farce? Capitalism ruins everything? Let's find out!
The Patent Law’s foundation has been challenged by a University of Bristol academic.
Dr Mo Abolkheir, a philosopher specialising in inventions and patents, has identified a logical fallacy - a flawed argument that may appear valid but is based on faulty reasoning - within the law.
Wait how does a logical fallacy matter here.
Published in the Journal of Intellectual Property Law & Practice (JIPLP),
Oh, something new for me to hate
Dr. Abolkheir’s editorial identifies a logical fallacy embedded within the 'non-obviousness' requirement in patent law, a flaw that had gone unnoticed until now.
this is looking less like a critique of capitalism every minute
Dr Abolkheir has termed this the inventio ad hominem fallacy, a variation of the classical ad hominem fallacy, an example of which is the sporting analogy of playing the man rather than the ball.
I hate this now
He explains that patent offices, when assessing an invention’s patentability, have been inadvertently examining the cognitive abilities of the inventor rather than the invention itself. He suggests this introduces dangerous subjectivity into the process, in terms of varying indirect interpretations of an inventor’s intellectual capacity, rather than on the technical merits of the invention.
What? Of course they have. This barely scratches the surface!? The process requires lawyers which requires money which is immediately a class issue. Subjectivity!? My dude this is and always has been a type of class warfare. The subjectivity is intended.
High quality hate reading if you need a palate cleanser go read the Law and Political Economy Project
The atmosphere is ablative armor in the sense that it ablates incoming projectiles.
idk 10快/鱼 seems like a pretty good deal idk how much capital this cat is accumulating at that price.
I don’t typically keep up with sports but why can’t the people being annoying about Lebron James’ son keep that same energy for nepotism in general
I hate it. For some reason it’s cool and good to get a job because of your daddy but once it happens in sports?
For some reason
Death to America

How come no one's hiring anymore? I apply to places that literally ask for zero qualifications and I still hear nothing back. Not even an interview.
Saw a study that around 50% of "open positions" are actually fake, with two goals in mind:
Firstly, to give the impression that the business is growing and expanding, which makes it look healthier.
Secondly, and most importantly, to keep understaffed and overworked workers content. "We know you're understaffed, but we're trying to look for extra employees and we can't find any! Look, we even have a posting!"
Be me, unemployed loser
Sincerely trying to apply, but no one gets back to me.

99% of job advice is "just use your network bro". Have no rich friends who will hire me
Complain about this to Hexbear, if nothing else it's cathartic
Comrade Vovcik_ilich suggests it could be partially because employers want to trick employees they're not getting new hires
put two and two together.
idea.jpg
They want me to network? Oh, I'll network alright.
Go apply like normal, then cold message employees there that I applied for these roles and what can I best do to prepare, all in good faith.
They inevitably discuss with their employers that what they're saying about being unable to hire anyone is a lie
May not get job, but I might embarrass a pork or two.
Is this how we beat them?
It's probably more the second one at the moment. Investors want to see belt tightening, so most companies probably want to give the impression they aren't hiring as much
IDK about the states, but in klanada they'll post ridiculous job listings like "coffee store employee, 60 dollars an hour", hire nobody for months, then bring on a temporary foreign worker that they can use as practically indentured labour by claiming there were no locals who wanted the job and needing an LMIA.
I think the feds have slowed that program down. They did a whole "businesses would abuse a system of cheap labour" thing a few months ago, and restaurant owners started crying about it.
I keep seeing the same positions get reposted, so assuming those are real they're presumably going unfilled. They span the entire range of above my experience level, perfect match, and I'm a little overqualified. Every time I apply it's the same "we went with candidates whose qualifications are a better fit" lol.
