When someone says they "grew out of watching anime" I hear "got burnt out by watching only battle shounen and didn't try branching out to any other genres"

I know it's been said but holy moly it's sad that the phrase "gender critical" has been adopted by a group that are so regressively uncritical about the interconstructed nature of sex & gender in society

Games Workshop wrote up a Brand Statement for the Warhammer seriesses and it had all the usual stuff about "These worlds are grim and dark but we want to be inclusive of everyone so we will be continuing to expand our storytelling yadda yadda" y'all know the drill by now. But it ended with "And if you feel the same way, wherever and whoever you are, we're glad you are part of the Warhammer community. If not, you will not be missed."

it's honestly weird it how newer phones/tech that uses the internet in general tend to have it so you can't take out the battery

esp when your ips will continue getting tracked as long as you have yr battery connected

i always hated how there's become less and less options for taking it out esp for up to date phone models bc it's easier to reset your phone if you can just take it out. but how they have it to where an masse people can be tracked through their phones without being able to disable it or without a faraday case/fabric really bothers me

distances from LRAD trucks and their decebel levels/effects
20 meters - 120 dB (pain threshold for humans)
50 meters - 107 dB
200 meters - 95 dB
(threshold for permenant damage after long term exposure begins at 90 dB)
500 meters - 88 dB

sound is created through the use of an array of small electromagnetic drivers that combine to significantly amplify output
the structure of the device helps keep sound waves focussed

the line "a Spectre is haunting Europe" is iconic and well known today. but the original translation in English was "frightful hobgoblin" which I like better

thinking about that guy who thought that marx was positing that there was a very large ghost covering all of europe

Dear other Black Folk?

What is a happy picture of you that you have access too. There's been a plethora of black pain on show lately and while that needs to be seen and felt I'd like to see some black joy to remind me and everyone of our natural state absent white supremacy and remind each other that blackness is not the burden, white supremacy is...

Somebody not on here was saying what about murder and violent crime.

1. It's much less than 10% of what police deal with, so you could still cut them 90+%.

2. Murder was illegal before there were police. Charges were brought and warrants were issued and people were brought in by constables (who were not police). This was 100% reactive and didn't have terrible preventative "stop and frisk" or whatever that terrorises communities.
