I understand not a word of Korean, but this is excellent.

At least 11 killed, 29 injured as gunmen attack Jewish holiday event on Sydney’s Bondi Beach.
Let me guess: Islamic disphits who should’ve never been let into the country in the first place.
Betterness
Why is so much of the left so very invested in attempting to convince everyone against all evidence that no one is more capable at anything than anyone else? And they really seem to hate that in many cases, they are just born that way. Michael Jordan (my typical example) just had a much higher ceiling for being a basketball player than I do. And that’s true no matter how much I trained and practiced.
They always pull out some cockeyed clownery like, “Michael Jordan wasn’t born knowing how to play basketball!” I mean, who gives an ever-livin’ fuck. That’s totally irrelevant to anything. I wasn’t knowing born how to read or comprehend complex info in a flash and I’m still better at it than nearly all of anyone who has ever lived.
I know that it galls them terribly how much everyone is not the same and that they never will be. And they want us to pretend that this interchangeability is the case in reality nonetheless. But I won’t do it. I just care about that reality and dealing with the world as it is far too much.
Jumpy
Jump Master Saves jumper #5 from decapitation.
Shit, that’s a great jumpmaster there.
Procedure is to make eye contact with the jumpmaster and hand off the static line firmly. That way you know the JM is ready for you and the line doesn’t get caught or tangled. That doof dropped it as he was walking.
What a screw-up.
That’s a C-141 in the vid. Jumped out of that plane many times; that was my life for five years.

I was not on maternity leave obviously, but I did the same thing after a two-week vacation on a job that I’d grown increasingly frustrated with. There, I’d get 500-1,000 emails a day. I rolled back in, took one look at my inbox, and deleted every single thing in there. There were no consequences other than not having 10,000+ emails to deal with.
Recommend, would do again.
Double Stand
Be as unthreatening as possible while women still insist, “Treat me just like you would a man!”
Uh, no. No, you do not actually want that. You think you do but in fact you do not.
Saw the Whip
Hardly anything makes me hate people worse than hypocrisy. And watching the majority of the “progressives” whipsaw wildly from copyright minimalism to maximalism when it fit better into their degrowther tendencies certainly made me detest them a whole lot. That’s not the only thing, but that was a big part.
We Have Trouble
Another example tonight of how bad at troubleshooting people are. Someone in my field who knew more about the problem than I did tried and failed to fix something for hours.
Knowing far less about it, I came in and fixed it in ~20 minutes.

Sacks Himself
The revelation that the incredible stories told by Oliver Sacks were fabrications joins the replication crisis to create feeling to sad disillusionment. The things I was so excited to believe in my gullible 20's just weren't so. Mugged by reality. https://t.co/xNs5qLfiGn

I didn’t read Oliver Sacks for just this reason. Made it through a quarter of one of his books, don’t even recall which one, and said, “This sounds like BS.” Put it down, never picked up another of his again and never really thought about him again either.
I have a really good bullshit detector.
Avoid the Cook
My mom’s cooking was so bad that my sister and I were overjoyed when we got Manwich as kids.
Think of that. Happy about Manwich.

“Investment”
Did I get scammed or am I dumb?
Why not both? People post the most obvious scams in the history of ever and then ask something like this. I do not understand it.
