Trump Visibly Rattled as Surprise Polls Show Undecideds Move to Harris
  • That was just bizzare.

    Can you think of the leader of any other country where that would slide? I mean, not even Boris would have been that crass. Even keeping it within the States, is there a past president who would have?

    It really made me think of elderly flashers, who act that way because they have degenerative neurological disorders associated with age.

  • What @SanctimoniousApe@lemmings.world said

    It does state the source of the article though (this one says The Independent UK), and you can click the 'jump to' icon to go the proper site-- but it won't be at the proper article, just the main page.

    But just in general-- If my query returns a lot of MSN hijack links, I just go back and put -MSN in the search.

    Edit: screen of page

    pointing out where the jump button is with a red circle. It's in the top right corner

  • Fridges never die.
  • I only found this out the other night because my fridge went dead silent for a long time. I thought it was borked, so I was peering deep into the freezer when I saw The Gates of Hell through the grate.

    (Okay, so full disclosure, I had smoked some pot, but it totally looked like when Dana opened the fridge to Zuul before she was The Gatekeeper.) 😱😱😱

    Anyways, turns out it was in defrost mode (which happens twice a day), and that involves some elements going orange or something. I know that's vague-- I looked it up, but as I mentioned, I was high, so I only kinda remember, lol.

    Edit:

    The refrigerator activates a heating element located near the evaporator coil. This element warms the coils, causing any ice buildup to melt.

  • Drop your most "wtf that's not how the world works" from movies/tv shows.
  • That makes it look all Loony Toons :S

  • YouTube reportedly testing new homepage that removes dates and view counts
  • Yes, please! Also, would the add on make the date searchable again?

    Because anything that has had an update is now a clusterfuck.. say I want to see how to change a calendar setting in godforsaken Outlook, searching by date is necessary b/c who knows what the version number is.

    Or games like Path of Exile, where three months can render some information obsolete because it's a league system.

  • Guy has totally bought his own press.. wait, what

    Jokes aside-- Fuck Bezos. I hope him and Musk get their just desserts.

  • B.C. NDP hangs on to power, will form next government CBC projects
  • We had what, three, referendums about it and people voted against it every time. It's mind-boggling.

    Voters were asked whether they would prefer to keep the existing first-past-the-post system or move to one of three forms of proportional representation.

    I found the article from the last one, if anyone is interested: CBC article

    I am beyond relieved that the NDP stayed in :D

  • Lol, WTF? Why is this bot's font getting bigger/bolder?

    Poor wee robot-- yelling won't make your comments more visible through all the downvotes.

    Edit: two days ago you were more polite:

  • “Extreme Danger”: Harris Earns a Stunning Endorsement Over Trump
  • The woman who had no issue lunching with Putin in 2015 after Russia annexed Crimea in 2014? The woman whose current position is for not providing Ukraine with monetary/military assistance?

    That's not a good record on genocide.

  • Oh yay, I get to post the new image I found the other day!

  • Donald Trump 'Groped' A Minor At Donor Event? Claims Of Bombshell Video Surface
  • I'm unfamiliar with this news site, but they must know they have to do better on sources, because this sounds like reporting on rumours.

    "Several social media users, including commentators and reporters..." (emphasis mine).

    Interesting that the right is already accusing them of potentially using deepfakes in the future. Maybe they know of something captured in video, or maybe random blanket statements of innocence are necessary with a knob end like Trump.

    I also hope no one was victimized.

  • It seems like a difficult language to learn
  • I'm learning Polish, and spelling (rz dz sz cz ł and ą ę ż ś) is all fine for me-- the thing I struggle with is the grammatical cases. The fact that the ending of everything changes is what has caused me to give up twice 🥺

    I will pick it up again, but I sucked at the Masculine/Feminine thing with French, and this is a lot more difficult.

  • Wayyy past the number of corporate billionaires I'd be comfortable having in politics, and for them to go from lobbying in the background to centre stage is worrying.

  • Woman who stabbed classmate to please Slender Man files third release request
  • Agree that the expert testimony should be included in the posted article!

    I found this article from when the trial was in progress, which includes the testimony for the second request:

    https://apnews.com/article/slender-man-girl-stabbed-psychiatric-hospital-6ab1ab144b58540ece9d5b2531833f75

    Two psychologists testified Wednesday that a Wisconsin woman who at age 12 stabbed a sixth-grade classmate nearly to death to please the online horror character Slender Man should not be released yet from a psychiatric hospital.

    Morgan Geyser, now 21, wants to leave Winnebago Mental Health Institute with conditions. But one psychologist said the case has taken an unusual turn because Geyser claims she had been faking psychotic symptoms, which “doesn’t line up” with years of observation and treatment.

  • Woman who stabbed classmate to please Slender Man files third release request
  • There is a link in the article to an earlier article that covers her 1st request, in which there was an assessment:

    Judge Michael Bohren ruled against Morgan Geyser, now 21, despite the testimony of two psychiatrists, including the medical director of Winnebago Mental Health Institute, who said she was ready to depart that hospital and return to the community under certain conditions.

  • Poke Check

    Šilovs is wayyy out of net to poke check Kane in first image. Moss from IT Crowd in second image. Text reads: Šilovs is out of his net. He's not in his net. He's supposed to be in his net. Why is he out of his net.

    Looking for a particular jazz album

    During the Reddit Strike, there was a stream on Twitch showing subreddits going dark. They played an amazing Japanese jazz album, but I've lost the bookmark to the YouTube vid.

    Does anyone have it, please?
