STAY AWAY FROM SAND

Different country, similar politics: we got refugee kids rooting for the far right (full on Nazi) party thinking they're hating with them.

he doesn't get us

Really went too far by yelling "it's a small one!" instead of the customary "oink, oink!"

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.

Would you want to share a wife with other men?

Most instances of middle eastern polygamy have a heavy element of materialism to them. The women mostly agree because it gives them a higher standard of living, not because they like the concept.

People of Sweden have a relatively high living standard as a baseline so when your father's second wife decided to do this it was like giving up 'real' partnership for some fancy hand bags.

Damn, that's not fair. Boeing were doing their best to make their planes unbuyable with their absolute trash company culture resulting in tons of safety issues. They almost had it on their own and now the trade war madness is stealing their thunder.

It's like shooting a man that is about to jump off a cliff. Just let them cook. They got this.

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.

Potato, potato.
