"The welfare state did not come about as the result of any idealistic “notion” on the part of do-gooders and bleeding-hearts. Such people may have helped sell it politically, but the architects of the welfare state were hard-headed capitalists who rightly understood its necessity for keeping capitalism to sustainable levels of extraction"

Well that's a load of shit.

"While offering remarks in support of Alberta’s energy industry that includes fighting a federal government rule decreeing net-zero power emissions by 2035, Smith said trying to have the province go off natural gas for power generation by that year would be impossible after a heckler interrupted her."

Ghostbusters and the Use of Knowledge in Society

The utility man does as he’s told—and of course all hell breaks loose. But notice who actually made the decision. 

It wasn’t the scientists who built the ghost storage facility. It wasn’t the utility worker, who at least had some knowledge of power systems. It was the government bureaucrat who knew absolutely nothing about the system. 

Yep it's still a thing. You thought it went out in the 80s and we were all woke now.

Digital Media Champion Joe Hendry has brought backup in the form of New Japan Pro-Wrestling’s Yuya Uemura for a tag team showdown with Kenny King and Sheldon Jean this Thursday. King is out for revenge after Hendry embarrassed him with the debut of a new music video entitled “Stripper Kenny”. Both Hendry and King will look to send a message to one another as they prepare for their Digital Media Title bout two days later on Countdown to Slammiversary.

With the high-risk, high-wire, high-stakes spectacle known as Ultimate X quickly approaching at Slammiversary, Mike Bailey and Kevin Knight must first focus on each other in an Ultimate X Preview match. Whoever leaves IMPACT! with the W will gain an important momentum boost heading into the big event. Meanwhile, you can expect the other competitors in Ultimate X to be watching closely as Jonathan Gresham, Angels and KUSHIDA scout their competition.

After Wentz made his shocking IMPACT return and reunited with his fellow Rascal, Trey Miguel, it didn’t take long for the duo to find themselves in a verbal altercation with ABC. This Thursday, will Wentz prove that the Rascalz deserve to be in the conversation for a shot at the IMPACT World Tag Team Titles? Or will Bey continue ABC’s recent hot streak with another victory?

Before the stacked 4-way clash for the IMPACT World Tag Team Titles at Slammiversary, momentum is up for grabs on IMPACT. Two of those teams will face off in traditional tag team competition as Moose and Brian Myers take on Rich Swann and Sami Callihan. Luck has not been on the side of Moose and Myers as of late, and they’re out to prove that they’re a force to be reckoned with in the tag team division.

As Deonna Purrazzo prepares to defend her Knockouts World Title against Trinity in a Slammiversary dream match, “The Virtuosa” will look to make a statement when she holds a Knockouts World Title Open Challange just two days prior on IMPACT. Tensions between champion and challenger began to escalate when Purrazzo hesitated to come to Trinity’s aid during a recent attack from Gisele Shaw and Savannah Evans. Who will answer the call for a shot at the most coveted prize in women’s wrestling? And will Purrazzo make it to Slammiversary as the Knockouts World Champion?

I've been considering self-hosting for over a year now, but I'm still concerned if the feds will come knocking at my door for something someone else does.

For example, if someone on my server follows an individual or community and they posts something illegal (i.e. unauthorized sexually exploitive images) that content could be stored on my server. Wouldn't' I be legally liable for such?

I mean #fucklaws and everything, but I don't want to end up in a cage and certainly not for something someone else did.

My ten-year-old likes Asuka and Takahashi. I suspect its more related to the bright colors of their ring gear than anything else.

Then again, she used to like watching wrestling with me, and then she got old enough to have her own tastes for entertainment. ;-)
