DOG RESCUE‼️ Sadie, a black Lab, was swept nearly a mile out to sea by a rip current. Lifeguards searched 30 minutes… then 40. After an hour, they were given just 10 more minutes to find her. Her owners were being informed the search might end — when a radio crackled:

Crime is down massively in the last two decades without this kind of brutality. Our obvious problems are housing, healthcare, and food security. But that requires rich people giving up a tiny sliver of the money they’ve exploitatively derived from workers.
it does feel like an intense societal problem that the founder of palantir, the biggest survellience company, thinks like this

Would you rather have $30 cash each year or a magic box outside your door you can use to send and receive physical correspondence anywhere in the world?
Oh wait, I take that back. You won't get the $30. We'll just take away the magic box and give the money to rich people and/or DOD. 💯

You are ABSOLUTELY NOT going to regret listening to this bird:
A male rock ptarmigan (Lagopus muta) in winter plumage.
Ptarmigan is from Gaelic 'tarmachan' meaning "croaker". The p- was added when people mistakenly assumed it was a Greek word.
A bird forever warning people: "A werewolf!" (just in case of werewolves).

see the thing about them all being the worst people in the world is that even when one of them gets killed they can't create a proper cult of martyrdom around him because the others get jealous he's getting all the attention.
