Topic | Iran drones currently en route to Israel. |
streamofthesky 04/14/24 10:28:04 AM #155 | https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/live-blog/iran-attack-israel-strikes-live-updates-rcna147738 Analyst: Attack is a 'major milestone,' even if Iran intended it to be largely symbolic As I said. Iran just opened Pandora's box. Better not cry later when the same is done to them. Missile debris lands in the Jordanian capital And let us not forget how Iran sent hundreds of drones and missiles right across Jordan's airspace, endangering them as well. But I expect, as always, Iran will get a total fucking pass for all of its international atrocities. Ukraine condemns Iran, drawing parallels with Russian attacks as it pushes for new U.S. aid Sad that the obvious needs to be stated, and that many on the left will still ignore it. Iran is a terrorist state. Hopefully Biden wins in November and someone who's determined to protect Israel but not right-wing politically replaces Netanyahu. Israel is fucking pissed at Russia for their hand in Hamas's attacks, and I foresee a bright future of US-Ukraine-Israel relations with Israel, backed by US funding, mass producing the Iron Dome for Ukraine. Don't fuck it up, leftists. |

Topic | Joseph Gatt, falsely smeared a pedo by corrupt DA, suing LA for $40 million |
streamofthesky 04/13/24 11:41:13 PM #1 | Update to the previous topic I had on this! Joseph Gatt (actor most known for his role in Game of Thrones) is not going to take his abuse by prosecutors silently, and is fighting back! And there's new details about this absolute shit show since the original case dismissal. https://deadline.com/2024/04/joseph-gatt-sues-los-angeles-police-lapd-false-pedophile-claims-1235876289/ Almost two years after Joseph Gatt was arrested by the LAPD on now-dismissed charges of engaging in online sexually explicit communication with a minor across state lines, the Game of Thrones actor is taking on the police, the city of Los Angeles and the office of District Attorney George Gascn. Un-fucking real! It took nearly two years of career and reputation destruction before he and his legal team even got to see the evidence and that it was fabricated (the fan literally photoshopped scenes from his films and put herself in them), and they didn't even talk to the supposed victim for a damn year...and then kept dragging his name thru the mud for another year after that! Fuck them, and fuck prosecutorial immunity. A whole lot of people should be in jail right now. |

streamofthesky 04/10/24 2:41:30 PM #105 | Block_that_Kick posted... I was more or less making a point with the 270 map where even if Biden lost three of those swing states, he still wins with Pennsylvania, Michigan and Arizona behind him. I do think he will eventually win Nevada and Wisconsin but with smaller margins.Michigan is probably the most at risk of it, NV, AZ, and WI, just because a bunch of cry bullies that got absolutely dwarfed in votes might get mad they can't impose their will on the other 90% and throw the election. Hopefully not, but if I were Biden I'd focus hard on NV/AZ/WI just to have the wiggle room in case MI goes rogue. (and please dear god let us boot Rick Scott and turn FL blue! That'd be so amazing! Abortion and weed are on the fucking ballot!) |

But then rich people w/ $250K joint income (the limit on Biden's $10K/$20K original plan) couldn't benefit and we couldn't stick it to those who paid it off already or never went to college, so it didn't have enough spite for peoples' tastes. ButteryMales posted... The treasury can make an infinite amount of fiat currency to loan. Whether it's paid back or forgiven, it's going to be deleted just as easily as it was created.Half the dollars in circulation in 2021 were printed in 2020 by Trump's Federal Reserve. And w/ the benefit of hindsight we now know that had absolutely zero negative impact on the value of a dollar. |

There is absolutely zero non-biased/logical rhyme or reason for stuff that gets a complete pass, stuff that gets hit w/ it and simply deleted, and stuff that not only is hit w/ it, but single-handedly earns you a 3 day vacation.

Now that I'm remembering it, that was another thing that was offputting to me.The main character is a pervert, Darkness is a(n even bigger) pervert, Aqua kinda is, too... It's an ecchi anime. It has perverted humor. For me, that's a massive plus, I love that stuff. As far as actual sexual content, it ends up not being that much, but the whole show is chock full of sexual jokes and innuendo. I guess if you don't like that stuff, it won't be for you. But on the scale of all anime, it's really not that extreme...partly b/c some anime really tip the scales for what a 10/10 on the horniness meter means.... |

streamofthesky 04/07/24 1:30:27 PM #9 | Konosuba is hilarious. Darkness is the best character (along w/ Kazuma) and it's disappointing how often she gets shunted to the background. Also while Megumin isn't bad (I like all the characters), she's definitely the least interesting yet gets most of the attention. I think next season is supposed to have more Darkness-focused stuff, right? |

streamofthesky 04/06/24 3:53:29 PM #45 | Trumble posted... I think the general attitude is more "it's bad in general but we aren't going to care so much about the individual case when it's one of those".This. Not saying it should be official policy or or done intentionally for the most part. More like, "when it happens to the above criminals, I don't really mind at all". SauI_Goodman posted... I love animals and usually always prefer the company of animals to people but just curious why the raping of adults is different to you? Obviously we need to protect the children but I just find this mentality curious.For me, it's a difference of preying upon those too weak or incapable of knowing what you're doing to them. Preying upon children and animals is more despicable to me than doing similar crimes to functioning human adults. There's a reason a child or pet is "in your care" but an adult human is not (aside from some disabled people, which I guess should've been included in my list as especially heinous victims). That's basically my reasoning for saying those criminals are a tier even worse. |

I can't even think of any other examples offhand of a country's military or police just invading another nation's embassy like that. There's probably been a bunch of cases where a spy in an embassy in a foreign country that's enemies to his home country got captured and no one said anything about it b/c it was more important to pretend they weren't there in the first place. And obviously Mexico is justified to be upset about it. It's a pretty publicized/blatant egress, no country is going to say, "fair, next" when it happens in one of theirs and it becomes public knowledge. |

streamofthesky 04/06/24 2:31:28 PM #4 | ssb_yunglink2 posted... I assume the issue is more conducting a raid on a foreign embassy than Jorge Glas himselfI know. But it's like how Iran abused "it's a consulate, no attackies here!" to have a shit load of IRG military members a few miles from Israel's borders or how Julian Assange abused embassy protections to evade justice for being a Russian spy and possible rapist. Like yeah...technically you're not supposed to go after those buildings, but... in none of those cases do I actually care if those rules get bent. Evil people love abusing legal technicalities to hide behind. Why is Mexico so vested in protecting his ass when his corrupt deals were w/ Brazil, anyway? Shouldn't it be Brazil protecting him? What's Mexico hiding? |

Steven Crowder has all of Ben's negatives plus is an absolute fucking train wreck and a garbage tier human being even to his friends and family, and currently has lawsuits from his wife and his former friends tearing his business and personal life apart. It's almost impressive how he's managed to burn every fucking interpersonal bridge imaginable.

streamofthesky 04/06/24 12:27:16 PM #18 | It's plainly worse than 10 and some stuff can be fixed w/ work on your end, other stuff I haven't been able to yet. By far the most annoying is the merged Internet/Volume/Power in the taskbar that I can't seem to separate no matter what I try. And when you click on the time, instead of just the calendar popping up, you get an unwanted Notifications window on top of it, too, plus this stupid fucking "Focus" button. Also, I hate that the tabs (a chore in itself to get instead of just icons in the taskbar) have a preview thumbnail when you hover over them. I fixed it with a registry edit (I swear I have done like 3x the regedits for Win 11 that I did for Win 10 and still hate the final UI more), but as soon as a windows update happened, it reverted back and I gave up. |
