Just to suck the life out of this (yet another) hilarious vignette, did you know, according to the data gathered by defenders.org, in the United States more people are killed by cows than wolves?! The UK-based theconversation.com has a webpage advising how to stay safe around a killer herd!

I'm back. Didja miss me?

Have to politely disagree with Mr Ager's analysis/conjecture. While I may concede that some abuse may have happened in Alex's childhood, there's no solid or even implied link to either parent being the abuser. Unfortunately, people hang for such circumstantial or presumed evidence. I'll generously grant Ager that there may have been sexual abuse on the part of the law (Deltoid, police) and if any case may be made regarding the parents' culpability, it possibly would be their turning a blind eye to the presumed sexual abuse (there's a legal term for this but it escapes me at the moment).

Really? You need to see a (max.) 64px sq image of something to engage?

Here. Use an Invidious link instead of Piped. Best of both worlds: it doesn't link directly to privacy-ignoring YouTube and (usually) will show a post thumbnail image when linked to from Lemmy.

If you all will excuse me, I'm gonna engage in the linked analysis of A Clockwork Orange.

When was the last time you had USD$10B? Next you're gonna defend Mackenzie Scott's hard-earned USB$34B, I suppose.

Indeed. Now she has only ca. USD$11B left over to survive with. She can buy only five, possibly six Sentinel ICBMs.

What's everybody getting so perturbed about? Geez. Isn't this just like when an ethnic group uses an ethnic slur within their own circle? 🤣

admitting homosexual men into seminaries

Ooh, like that's never happened before in the entire history of the Holy See. 🙄

Famously (depending on your definition of "fame") the only Roger Corman film that lost money.

Saudi Arabia publicly claims to support the Paris climate change agreement, which aims to limit global temperature increases to 1.5C or 2C – requiring an almost total transformation of the way in which the world produces and consumes energy. The Crown Prince [Mohammed bin Salman], also known as MBS, has said that the Kingdom needs to go “further and faster” in tackling climate change.

The Oil Demand Sustainability Program (OSP) is a vast government program with dozens of projects aimed at embedding a high-carbon, fossil fuel-dependent development model in countries across Africa and Asia. This includes meticulously researched plans to drive a major increase in gasoline and diesel-fuelled vehicles and boost jet fuel sales via increased air travel.

Responding to the investigation, Mohamed Adow, director of Power Shift Africa, a non-governmental organisation based in Nairobi focused on climate change, told CCR: “The Saudi government is like a drug dealer trying to get Africa hooked on its harmful product. The rest of the world is cleaning up its act and weaning itself off dirty and polluting fossil fuels and Saudi Arabia is getting desperate for more customers and is turning its sights on Africa.”

 

If sugar skulls ain't your thang...

That's right! Everybody's favorite four-letter word writ large on the silver screen at the gorgeous Detroit Film Theatre...CATS!

Why stay at home watching hilarious and lovable cat videos on your cellphone when you can bask in the grandeur of the "domesticated" felines 100 larger? You say you don't like cats? After this, you'll adopt ten and become a crazy cat ~~lady~~ person! Or maybe not.

Two shows Saturday, Oct. 28 (today, Sylvester!) and Sunday, Oct 29 (tomorrow, Fifi!), coinciding with National Cat Day (who knew?)
