Leonid Radvinsky. Never heard of him. Why does that explain it?

Should everything relating to nazi-era Germany be banned?

That’s ok because 59% of people who share an article don’t read it either.

Is this the first case of a female school shooter?

“Under South Korea’s laws, companies must ensure there is human oversight in so-called “high-impact” AI which includes fields like nuclear safety, the production of drinking water, transport, healthcare and financial uses such as credit evaluation and loan screening.”

It’s crazy that everyone else hasn’t introduced similar laws already.

I guess we will wait for something to go wrong first…

LOL thanks for the tip.

Work should give alcohol rations like sailors used to get!

Meditation is not trying to stop thinking because that is not possible. It is more like noticing the thoughts but not jumping on board the train.

Have you tried meditation?

Do you have a lot of caffeine? Try stopping.

If you use THC try switching to CBD

Otherwise just stay busy so there is no time to think

“I’m 100% convinced that most of those denials were being made because the staff that was there were overburdened to the point of just blanket denying shit to make their KPIs”

And I am 100% convinced this type of thing is not an accident. Because why would an insurance company WANT to pay out more than they have to? Instead they slash staff which saves money on pay AND claims and the company can blame any drop in quality on the reduced staff!

It’s genius except for the part where they are killing paying customers!

For those wondering how a parking fine can be 100K, it’s actually many smaller fines:

“However, one of the cars has to be parked slightly over the grass in Martinez’s yard, in violation of a local property-maintenance ordinance, which has led to a $250 fine every day since 2021”

Once Were Warriors

Once Were Warriors is Alan Duff’s harrowing vision of his country’s indigenous people two hundred years after the English conquest. In prose that is both raw and compelling, it tells the story of Beth Heke, a Maori woman struggling to keep her family from falling apart, despite the squalor and violence of the housing projects in which they live. Conveying both the rich textures of Maori tradition and the wounds left by its absence, Once Were Warriors is a masterpiece of unblinking realism, irresistible energy, and great sorrow.

Dysfunction, alcoholism, domestic violence.

But it’s not funny, sorry OP.

Pulp Fiction

Terminator 1 & 2

Alien and Aliens

Reddit is a really good site - have you tried it Grimreaper? I think they would like you

No embarrassing is something like shitting yourself in public or what RayGun did at the Olympics.

You are fine.

Newspeak: “In the 1949 dystopian novel Nineteen Eighty-Four (also published as 1984), by George Orwell, Newspeak is the fictional language of Oceania, a totalitarian superstate. To meet the ideological requirements of Ingsoc (English Socialism) in Oceania, the Party created Newspeak, which is a controlled language of simplified grammar and limited vocabulary designed to reduce a person’s ability to think critically.”

“A lay person is very easily impressed by a large number of followers,” said immigration lawyer Elektra Yao, founding partner of the Yao Law Group. “You don’t need to be a rocket scientist,” she said.

This world seems to get more anti-intellectual by the day.

Also as Snot Flickerman points out there are some real “The Handmaid’s Tale” vibes here and I would not be surprised!
