Speaker Johnson Explains Holdup In Releasing Jan 6 Tapes: ‘We Have To Blur Some Of The Faces’ To Protect Them From The DOJ
  • Forget the fact that the DOJ already has the tapes and this dude is just signalling to Republican voters, why would it be the purview of the Speaker of the House to obstruct DOJ investigations and admit to it publicly?

    Catastrophic change looms as Earth nears climate ‘tipping points’, report says
  • Right, but aside from everybody deciding to return to monke overnight, this is the most the average singular person can do to fight climate change. The problem is multipronged and societal. Westerners eat way too much meat, westerners drive way too many high emission vehicles, westerners buy too much shitty plastic crap, westerners leave every light in the house on while they have 3 screens open scrolling/gaming/background noise.

    Catastrophic change looms as Earth nears climate ‘tipping points’, report says
  • Unfortunately, even if we stopped using all petroleum products right this second, there's still that nasty 50 year lag between emissions and atmospheric outcome. We'll be seeing the Earth get hotter and hotter for many years to come before it changes, and by that time, the cascading system failures of Earth's biomes may be well past the point of no return.

    Alabama police officer caught on video using stun gun on handcuffed man: ‘Do you want it again?’
  • It's weird how since George Floyd and Breonna Taylor, cops haven't done anything mean to black people. No reason to have a protest/riot about police brutality since the problem got fixed!

    On the 50th anniversary of the Endangered Species Act, a rightwing threat looms
  • Remember: conservatism requires its followers to believe in natural hierarchies. Literally the very first rule of being a conservative is that you see yourself as inherently better than other people.

    Killer’s family allegedly knew Gabby Petito was dead weeks before discovery
  • It was known. It was widely reported that there were letters written between Brian and his parents, with his parents offering to help him hide the body. It was a very well publicized case and it's weird that people forgot this massive detail.

  • Not predicted, there were letters that investigators made public that detailed how the parents knew she was dead. They were offering to help him hide the body.

    Discord is on a quest to become a better messaging app
  • I'm not sure what everyone is complaining about in the comments. I use discord pretty much constantly and at all times.

    Nitro ads? It's 1 very minor ad when you launch the app. Then there's no more ads.

    Not as good as forums? Bull. I get an answer to my question immediately on discord. I may never find the answer to my question by sifting through dozens of pages of forum posts of someone having a similar but not congruent problem to mine.

    Can't find information? Discord has integrated forums with a search feature in each server.

    Bloated? How so? You have an inbox and you have your list of servers on the left hand side. Okay, some of the options are a little obscured, but it's not like Discord is doing anything except connecting like minded people via text and voice/video chat.

    I sincerely don't know what anyone is talking about. But part of me thinks it's because discord doesn't have E2E encryption and yall wanna discuss some naughty shit.

    Discord is on a quest to become a better messaging app
  • It takes seconds to ask a question and receive an answer in discord. It's entirely likely that my problem was never discussed on a forum post from 10 years ago with 15 pages to sift through.

    Discord is on a quest to become a better messaging app
  • I mean, it is a company that employs people that gives away its product for free. Aside from Nitro, would you like them to monetize your personal info and sell it to 3rd parties?

  • london.ctvnews.ca Calls for action after another crash shuts Riverside Drive

    London police have posted to social media that Riverside Drive is closed to all traffic between Beaverbrook Avenue and Upper Avenue.

    People act like Riverside is this super dangerous street because there's always accidents/fatalities on it. What people don't really appreciate is how many drivers on London roads are drunk at any given time. Also, Riverside is basically one long straight race track with one 90 degree turn. Drunks love driving on Riverside.

    Truth is, you could add traffic calming measures, but the city does sometimes just randomly remove its own infrastructure because we love wasting money.
