  • That headline is giving them too much credit. They merely let kids fight and essentially yelled “CRIPPLE FIGHT! KICK HIM IN THE BALLS!” like Cartman would instead of stopping it when they saw it.

    A “ringleader of a child fight club” would need to organize fights and betting, make sure everyone keeps their mouth shut. You know, the basics. You gotta train your champs a bit so you get a good show going. I’m not saying I’m sad about it but as far as child fight clubs go they didn’t really have anything going. If there was a child fight club union they wouldn’t qualify is all I’m saying.

    Seriously though fuck those kinds of people.



  • If I had known how bad it’d get I would’ve chosen a different field to work in. Sure, I can avoid it in my private life but on the job it’s like I’m in some kind of hostage situation.

    “Oh hi there customer! You know our product your users are accustomed to will only come as a subscription from now on and it’ll also be really bad and force full screen ads. We’ll push two updates per day because our unpaid interns are so agile. Bugs? Oh, no, we call those ‘micro disruptions’. They’re a feature but don’t cost extra! How much the license costs? Well, how much do you have? Yes, it’ll be that much.”


  • It seems like their maths won’t check out. They already estimate 66% of current residents to move on to other facilities (guess they don’t have licensed care takers as relatives to take them all in), yet seem to calculate with saving all the costs. Ultimately they’ll push more work towards the other facilities without any intention of financing additional staff which will not work in the long run.


  • Also parental controls are ass. Yes you can block (most) pornography but you can’t tell a social media app to not blast a teenager with misinformation. It’s like a playground but with glass shards everywhere. You can forbid the kid from playing there altogether but they’d feel excluded while all their friends are having fun. Somehow there doesn’t seem to be an option to remove the fucking shards though.







  • It do be like that. Many of them get repeated till they reach a critical point and everyone is sick of them. Some of them are harder to tolerate than others though. I can deal with people ‘checking notes’ here and there but those who use “literally” as every second word in their sentences awaken a primal rage inside of me that is yearning for rock to split skull. Luckily that trend isn’t as prevalent as it used to be back in the day.







  • From my understanding it’s a very poor nation with a deeply corrupt leadership. Said leaders are taking the opportunity to make money from industrialized incarceration without any oversight. The US president is openly breaking the law by deporting people there but has nothing to worry about anyway because the harshest form of protest the american people can think of is a passive aggressive tweet (that will generate ad revenue for the biggest monetary Trump supporter). The best part of this is that once people are there he can just raise his hands and say “well I can’t get them back, they’re outside the US!”
