Man, I can't believe Canada harbors Hamas. I guess Israel is going to invade Canada now.

It drives billionaires insane know that they are losing at the imaginary numbers game.

Benoit who murdered his family.

To be fair to Benoit, tests conducted his suicide showed that Benoît's brain was that of a 85 year old dementia patient.

Neuroscientist and former wrestler Christopher Nowinski argued that Benoit may have been suffering from repeated, untreated concussions throughout his wrestling career, ultimately leading to an unstable mental state. Nowinski was quoted as saying that Benoit "was one of the only guys who would take a chair shot to the back of the head ... which is stupid". Tests conducted on Benoit's brain by Julian Bailes, the head of neurosurgery at West Virginia University (WVU), showed "Benoit's brain was so severely damaged it resembled the brain of an 85-year-old Alzheimer's patient". Other tests conducted on Benoit's brain tissue revealed severe chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), and damage to all four lobes of the brain and brain stem. Bailes and his colleagues concluded that repeated concussions can lead to dementia, which can contribute to severe behavioural problems. Benoit's father said that brain damage may have been the leading cause of the murder-suicide. A statement released by WWE described the findings as "speculative".

Kissinger was a liche. We got a lucky and destroyed the phylactery.

What a nice family tradition. I wonder if they all use the same cloth to clean up?

Do police not arrest people for this?

Depends on the city. Some cities are notorious for using speed traps to increase revenue.

From Texas to Ohio, municipalities are using law enforcement to counteract declining tax bases through the aggressive enforcement of fineable offenses such as speeding. A 2019 report estimated that nearly 600 jurisdictions nationwide generate at least 10% of their general fund revenue through fines and forfeitures.

Other municipalities have enacted their own policing-for-profit programs. In Brookside, Alabama, the town of about 1,200 residents saw its revenue increase more than 640% in only two years, according to AL.com, after police began an aggressive traffic stop and ticket-writing campaign. Fines and forfeitures made up almost half of the town's budget.

What this says to me is "I am rich enough to deal with the reality of mass shootings. Get fucked plebs. This is your problem, not mine."

Science works best when people are:

  • Creatively thinking
  • Use ideas from other scientific areas for their scientific area

The book "How We Got To Now" does a fabulous job of showing that science is not a uniform step by step process instead is a tree with different branches.

AC and refrigerators all started because someone wanted to ship ice to tropical locations for money.

SETI is another prefect example. A bunch of scientists sat around and said to themselves "We have all these new instruments for space. What if we tried to find alien life with it?"

It's out of this world funny.

Mr Giuliani filed for bankruptcy last month after he was ordered to pay $148m to Georgia election workers he defamed

Donald Trump’s former lawyer Rudy Giuliani has listed a claim against the one-term president over unpaid legal fees in a new bankruptcy filing.

The ex-New York City mayor includes a “possible claim for unpaid legal fees against Donald J Trump.” in the 26 January filing, which states that the amount is “undetermined.”

Mr Giuliani filed for bankruptcy last month, days after a federal judge ordered him to “immediately” pay more than $148m to a pair of Georgia election workers a jury determined he defamed.

Mr Giuliani represented Mr Trump in a string of unsuccessful lawsuits contesting the results of the 2020 election that he lost to Joe Biden.

Mr Trump’s legal fees owed to Mr Giuliani have previously been reported. The New York Times wrote in August 2023 that “Mr Trump has never explicitly told Mr Giuliani why he is effectively stiffing him, but the former president has pointed out that he lost the cases related to the election.”
