in europe "anti-immigrant riot" is what they call attempted pogrom these days
also there’s this common misconception that reading is primarily about the book or the subject: this is incorrect. ‘Reading’ is an activity wherein you constantly evaluate your own self worth in increasingly cruel ways against some culturally sanctioned object that is better than you
oh i've always wanted to ask an audience that isn't mostly indians/chinese where sex selective abortions are criminalised this question.
does banning sex selective abortions (by making it illegal for doctors to reveal the sex of fetuses before birth) infringe on reproductive autonomy?
yes
no
the sewing machine is like if a horse and an inkjet printer had a child
i was going to defend my sewing machine(s) from this accusation and then realized i sounded like a horsegirl telling everyone it's fine that my sweet baby has killed dozens or whatever because really he didn't MEAN it. but my 1966 touch-n-sew has never done anything wrong ever (unlike printers which are born with original sin). yes she does sometimes hesitate to switch between straight and zigzag stitch but that's part of her CHARM she's a FREE SPIRIT
It’s so funny to me that soccer games can end with a score of 0-0 like imagine going to see a soccer game and both teams just run around the field for 90 minutes doing absolutely nothing and nobody scores any points and at the end of the 90 minutes they’re like well. Guess that’s that. Great soccer game guys.
The real surprise from the OECD’s subsidy numbers is that it cost China less than $18bn in sectoral support over 15 years to build an industry that can now provide more clean power than the world can readily absorb. If industrial policy in the west had delivered this kind of bang for its buck, we would be patting ourselves on the back.

one of africa’s best referees gets denied entry to the us simply because he’s from somalia but footballers charged with about 10 counts of rape and sexual assault can enter the country without issues. maybe i just don’t understand how visas work but that can’t be right

Don't ask the expat friendly foreign investment friendly modern country how they feel about labour migrants.
got inspired by a #pedestrian post + have been stressed at crosswalks and the like lately sooo.

A daily game that challenges our understanding of human cultures. Ten objects. 5,000 years of human history. Guess where and when each artif
An interesting game where you are presented with 10 artifacts from the MET. You have to place where the artifact is from and what time period it is from. Each artifact scores up to 10,000 points, and you lose points the further away your guess is and how far off in time you are. You can only play once a day. Thanks to @baebeylik for showing this to me.
Today I scored really well. Yesterday ... not so much.

Brian McFadden: Is Google Cooked? (via Daily Kos)
The funniest thing in superhero comics is not, in fact, when an outgoing writer on a title decides to break their toys by killing off the lead, and the next writer has to figure out how to bring them back.
The actual funniest thing in superhero comics is when a new writer decides to kill off the lead's entire supporting cast because they wanted to "go in a different direction", and the writer after that has to resurrect like half a dozen random people because that new direction sucked.
@pomrania replied:
And like, seriously, "the lead decides to ditch everything and travel the world, only to eventually come back home hat-in-hand because it turns out they canNOT do everything on their own" is WAY funnier and also easier for the next writer to pick up after, so they should be doing THAT instead.
It's my understanding that many writers for the Big Two have developed the habit of killing off established supporting characters they're uninterested in including in their storylines as a sort of pre-emptive defence against potential editorial interference. It's not unheard-of for the editor to stick their oar in and demand that you put more focus on a supporting character who's currently dead, but it's historically rare.
It's interesting to compare this with French-language comics where often the rights to the series are tied to a publisher who will have different authors work on it over the years, but the rights for secondary characters created by that author remain with the author, which if no agreement is reached can result in an entire roster of secondary characters dropping out of existence with no explanation between two stories as the previous author leaves and takes their characters with them. Thus the series Spirou and Fantasio's most iconic run was that of Franquin (from 1948 to 1968) (the character of Spirou was first created in 1938), who created most of the series's iconic secondary characters, including the marsupilami, their weird monkey-marsupial-like animal companion. Then when Franquin was succeeded by Fournier, none of the secondary characters created by the former could be used, so they just stopped appearing. There was no explanation or even mention of them, the comic was now effectively taking place in a different reality with an entirely new cast of secondary characters that everyone acted as if they were already established. Then after Fournier left in 1980, this happened again with his characters, and so the new authors Nic & Cauvin had to create again a set of secondary characters from scratch and act as if they had been there all along with no acknowledgement of previous characters. However, when Nic & Cauvin left in 1984 and Tome & Janry took over, Dupuis managed to negotiate with Franquin (who was still alive and doing his own stuff) for the right to re-use most of his secondary characters, so at that point the comic reverted, again with no explanation, to the "classic" cast — except for the marsupilami who Franquin wanted to keep the rights of because he had his own standalone series, and would not appear in another Spirou story again except for a one-off in 2016.
Historically, one of the most reliable sources of widespread banditry was rulers ramping up military recruitment for major wars, then cutting their soldiers loose afterwards without pay, leaving a bunch of heavily armed men with military experience floating around broke and homeless.
Knowing this, whenever someone jokingly refers to raccoons as "trash bandits", I get a vivid mental image of, like, a raccoon succession crisis leading to a raccoon civil war, the aftermath of which forced the former soldiers of the losing side (who are all raccoons) to take up the life of the raccoon outlaw.
