The detail I enjoyed most about this is that he had fewer than 220 followers at the time of the ban. This suggests that in order for any details on this incident to have got out at all, a decent percentage of his fans in 2025 are actually just journalists waiting for him to do something stupid they can get an article out of.

What makes this even more batshit insane is that they’re currently pressuring the UK and EU to lift their ban on US chicken; a ban which only exists because of the already poor food safety standards of the US meat industry.

I can’t look at her any more these days either. She reminds me of Roald Dahl’s description of people with ugly thoughts.

Yeah I used to think that all these Tesla fan channels on YouTube and Instagram were because the brand was seen as somehow special and exciting, like Apple used to be under Steve Jobs. But now I’ve come to the conclusion that most of them are being paid under the table and not declaring it, because their collective reactions to the past year or more of insanity just don’t pass the sniff test.

The first few decades of my life I assumed that there’d been all sorts of important orthopaedic/podiatry research done into the difference between men and women’s feet, gaits etc that meant wearing sports shoes sold as “women’s” would in some way cause my feet long term harm. Nope, it was bullshit marketing all along.

When I first saw this on VHS it wasn’t at all clear what the bottom half was, it just looked like it went a bit wibbly. It’s only recently that I discovered they’re dozens of freaky legs.

“not all of them actually do sex work” is one of those fictions that everyone on all sides is happy to play along with.

hur, hur, you said VAG

That anyone would have the fucking audacity to sell tickets to something billed as Fyre Festival 2, is now just standard 2025 worst timeline stuff.

The grifters have worn everyone down to where people just put up with appalling treatment and come back for more.

umm guys this isn’t a news article, it’s a Black Mirror episode

It’s also worth keeping in mind that if the USD/CNY exchange rate fell in line with the two countries’ PPP, China would be biggest economy in the world by a margin of nearly 30%.

You’re correct, but are getting downvoted by people who treat the whole topic like they’re supporting a sports team.

Yeah. Fascist criminals like Yaxley-Lennon in the UK cry about their free speech, and when you look at the cases it’s stuff like trying to intimidate juries, or inciting crowds to set fire to buildings containing asylum seekers.

There’s numbers for testing CC software.

Yes. That’s literally the only reason why you would do it.

The downvotes are for the unnecessary holier-than-thou rant at the end attacking everyone using this very site.

It took a sinister turn right at the end…

To be clear, when you say doctors endorsed cigarette smoking, a small percentage of doctors were duped into endorsing it and their recommendations boosted by the tobacco industry.

I’ve got my Grandfather’s old copy of The Boy’s Companion published before the date in that meme, and it’s very clear in its message that smoking is bad for you. They’ve known it was harmful to health since at least the 17th century, and tobacco was only brought to Europe in the 16th.

The cunts who sent that mascot to the hospital fucking KNEW. (edit: or at least they would have if they existed, it looks like the whole thing might have been AI generated)

It was created by an Elon Musk superfan who identified himself to ARTnews as a French tech entrepreneur under the pseudonym “Louis XXII."
