I think it’s a confirmed fact at this point

Oh so heartbreaking. In the end it’s just free marketing and buzz for them, so I’m sure they’re just beside themselves.

Would be amusing since the us and Israel colluded with Siemens to hack the Iranian centrifuges with stuxnet.

Narrator: They were definitely not negotiating.

This is a good template. Also last one has good “one does not simply…” energy

Did anyone actually see him, or did they just wheel him out with a heart lunch machine attached?

Man they are so good at this.

Or put another way, US runs out of expensive interceptor supply that boasts a 2% success rate; bases hit.

We don’t actually have laws that completely apply here, so this is essentially a test balloon / attempt to set precedent. The guy was specifically targeted by CPB due to his past protest of a thing called cop city in Atlanta, he was added to a watchlist with no notification to him, and CPB told him this was a routine secondary screening and that they wanted to search his phone for “child pornography”. Certainly would be better to have a burner or pre-wiped phone but basically I think he was caught unaware coming back from an unrelated trip.

In any case majority of Americans do not expect to have to offer up their digital systems freely outside of warrant-compulsion, which was not in play here.

That said there’s a lot of twisted loopholes they’re trying to use lately like this, so unfortunately even if it’s not the law they may be able to make it the law via this kind of precedent setting.

They really nailed the huge suit blowing in the wind look on his body double.

Yes, please do futurman

Oh snap had completely forgotten about this song until you reminded me, awesome.

I don’t know the exact thing; but I think it was discussed a bit in the news mega—basically there’s potential for corrosion and bad maintenance can lead to the stuff (whatever the latent state they’re keeping it in the tank) reacting and the reaction is thermal and sorta keeps itself going/getting worse—it puts off very toxic vapor (hence the evacuation) and they’re trying to slow or limit the reaction by cooling the system—not clear if that can actually avoid awful outcomes or just limit them by limiting the thermal potential overall, etc.?

Edit: here’s the link to the news mega response that has a lot better info for those who are curious https://vger.to/hexbear.net/comment/7188249

That… that’s no cat, that’s an inter dimensional being

Why is this… posting an article from Feb 2025…

Can confirm—we got a notification from municipal public works about how they were scaling back fluoride in water due to shortages from the war.

Yes I wondered that also, it would make the meme better and be less distracting haha.

Yeah I have no idea, but you see this sometimes where it sorta morphs a face towards some celebrity. Probably the original looked enough limestone and there were shit tons of gosling in its training data?
