I think France is more likely to turn Fascist.

but are there any things literally only males like?

Your comment almost gave me an aneurysm from how nonsensical it is.

Aren’t the AfD only doing well in parts of East Germany, which had previously been under decades of Soviet rule?

This would be a more substantial counter-protest if it occurred in Leipzig or Dresden.

A US senator has introduced a bill trying to criminalize it with a 20 year prison sentence.

Also, the US and El Salvador are doing a prisoner deportation deal.

I’m not making this up.

Truly a “leopards ate my face” moment for American Muslims.

Still, it’s a crappy justice system if literally running an international drug cartel thats administering adrenaline to torture victims (so they don’t fall unconscious), skinning them alive and hacking off their limbs with a chainsaw until they die gets you a lighter prison sentence than being a Libertarian web developer who ran the “Amazon of illegal narcotics” and went down what I can best describe as a dollar tree Walter White style descent into criminality.

And that’s just one of the cartel’s many torture and murder methods. They are mercilessly brutal and an incredibly good reason to stay away from huge parts of Mexico.

I’m not saying Ross didn’t do anything wrong (he certainly did) but there are worse convicts in the criminal justice system who are getting the chance of parole that Ross was denied.

I think Ulbricht received a disproportionately harsh sentence for his crime of running an online dark web narcotics marketplace. El Chapo only got one life sentence, plus 30 years for his role as a drug cartel kingpin. And last I checked, the Sinaloa Cartel are responsible for torturing and murdering hundreds, likely thousands of people through some of the most brutal and sadistic methods known to man. Ulbricht’s body count by comparison? Zero, unless you count the two attempts he made to hire hitmen.

As for why Ross got pardoned… A few months ago Trump visited the Libertarian National Convention on his electoral campaign and pledged to commute Ross Ulbricht’s sentence to that of “time served,” which suddenly made an otherwise-booing Libertarian crowd erupt into cheers.

Good on him for actually keeping to his word. He could very easily have flipped the middle finger to the Libertarians who voted for him based on that pledge.

1. He wasn’t charged with murder for hire.
2. Two of the DEA agents that solicited this actually tried to steal millions from the seizure, and each received custodial sentences for it.
3. The other time he tried to hire a hitman, it was a crypto scammer.

If you think that’s bad, look at the LinuxSucks community and how bad they’re being ratio’d.

Prigozhin?

Blow is short for blowjob.

So rather than blow the house down, the wolf instead goes to town on the chimney.

Klitschko v Rogan is a celebrity fight I’d actually like to see.

Mastodon just sucks as a user experience. Your average Joe doesn’t give a fuck about federation, yet it’s the whole Fediverse crap that harms the UX.

I made the mistake of signing up to a smaller Mastodon instance. Place was virtually empty aside from the lead admin (bit of a pretentious asshole) and a few other guys, and if you decide to browse the All Instances view, you’re flooded with posts from hentai reposting bots. And when I saw the #loli hashtag in one of those posts I immediately noped out.

Threads is still in a really bad state well over a year later. Meta still haven’t implemented hashtags and trending topics (even Mastodon has these), and my feed is full of thirst traps.

Bluesky has it all, and was created by Twitter’s original founders.

A mutual friend of ours got into an argument with him because he made some new friends at his local pub and was buying pints for them left, right and centre. He took serious offence to the suggestion that they were using him for his money (he got about £120k in inheritance after his mum died) and cut both of us off, even though I never said anything to him.

I don’t want to elaborate on his backstory but he had a lot of mental health problems and past trauma. After a lot of bad things happened a few years ago, he decided that he was done with life and vowed not to outlive his cats. Have tried to talk him out of it but he’s set on ending his own life after his cats pass away.

I presume he’s still alive, but I can’t get in touch with him as he nuked his phone number and blocked me on all socials.

It’s not bad by any means. Some of the best exploration and puzzle solving in the series but damn the combat sucks.

I’ve heard Iraqi Kurdistan is a nice place to visit and is relatively safe compared to the rest of the country.
