Can we start requiring the titles to include keywords like “Trump”, “Musk” or “US politics” site wide, so my filters can actually work. I’m here for silly memes and nerd talk.

Congratulations! You’re one of today’s lucky ten thousand

All the over sexualized characters, regardless of age, makes it damn near impossible to recommended much to any one. Even the “clean” shows suffer due to the bad rep. I get Japan is more open about it (ironic considering the censor laws), but some shows definitely cross the wrong side of the “adult” line and need to be publicly rediculed for it.

Its also good to remember pretty much every western TV show has borderline porn scenes now too. Ever since they moved away from cable regulations, they’ve been getting bolder.

If we’re gonna normalize one (too late, both are), I’ll take the animated one that doesn’t involve real people (well the voices actors have to act that shit out, but at least their whole body isn’t on full display, ever watch GoT?).

Its very unfortunate how judgmental and toxic the loud voices have become. I could see one responding to you “How dare you betray your people, you’re not one of us, die die die”

Making threats just because someone doesn’t check all the same boxes is insanity. I believe the whole point was to not have any box, yet here we are with new boxes to keep track of every week.

The way are being transported…I wouldn’t get your hopes up for them. :'(

That’s the only reason I can think you’d want a digital license plate, to change it on demand.

Its just e-waste.

“Help! My computer is slow after an update.”

“Try reinstalling window and reformatting you drive”

“Help I can’t find my documents!”

Never send an angry email the same day, and always send it to someone else for reviews. Also never put the recipients in the box until you’re ready to hit send.

Careful, if you’re not interesting you won’t be kept around for long

Not really. The point is that everyone has a base income. Why would working take away from the base income? Working should add to it.

I don’t like that plan. Its basically a free $20k for those who don’t work while working people get nothing.

You either give everyone 20k or you don’t.

I think the only way for UBI effectively to work is if you can fix prices/profits. No more charging $10 for something that’s cost .5¢ to make.

But taxes!!!

Said anyone who doesn’t know that minus $600/month that only covers the basics plus $300? in taxes that covers a lot more is a net savings.

But only for doomsday events. You get a 40 day notice.

Maybe its time to make friends with the doomsday peepers…

That’s sad. Someone asked “what does she like?” and someone responded “TikTok”. At least the other stuff on the box is an actual theme.

No you don’t need a license to be a journalist.

My thought was more about the scale of the project. For a journalists, just fact checking someone online doesn’t make you a journalists. If you went out to fact check something at the source, compiled a bunch of evidence and presented it publicly, then you’d call your self a journalist.

Back to the electrician (ignoring license requirements), swapping out a light switch isn’t much, but if you learned how to rewired a whole house, install panels, ceilings fans, etc - you’d call you self an electrition.

And you’re right, the electrician is kind of a bad comparison.

News isn’t a primary source. In most cases its a secondary source. They ask the primary “what happened” or get a press release from wherever and report on that.

They can be a primary source if they are live on location recording something as it happens. In that case, only the video (or written account) and individuals are primary sources, the second it goes through the studio’s writers it becomes a secondary source.

Journalist is defined as anyone who writes for public news media. If op writes an article an publicly posts it, they are a blogger. If they post it anywhere that can be considered a news site (IMO, if their a own site is a news site, it counts), they are a journalist.

A good journalists is one who takes in many primary sources, maybe fills the gaps with some other secondaries and informs the public with the most informed information they have. Unfortunately corporate news has become an echo chamber of secondary sources with no one independently looking at primary sources. If it ain’t cited don’t trust it.

If the OP of the shower thought, basically fact checks someone else, then they are doing the work of a journalist. However simply doing a bit of work does not earn you the title, just like replacing a light switch at your house does not make you an electrician (even if you do it better then some of the “professionals”)
