didn't the first Minions movie go to some lengths to establish that the Minions were entombed in a cave in Antarctica for most of the 20th century to avoid certain Awkward Questions
anyways so much for that
Yes, the overwhelming majority of 'Palestinian' gofundmes are scams, because starving people in a hellscape can't create accounts at even a minute fraction of the pace that professional scammer-warlords with specialized equipment and an army of slaves can.
We're talking orders of magnitude here.
So they are running a bunch of ad campaigns where the "ad" is just a main channel video that can be skipped after x seconds so that it fully registers as a "view" for no other reason than constructing the optics of the channel's performance.

For more than an hour, workers were instructed to continue working as the man lay dead.
One worker wanted to help, but a manager told them to “Just turn around and not look. Let’s get back to work," according to @thewesternedge.bsky.social.

Audiobooks problems: in DCCarl I was hearing “Metal Arc” instead of “Meadow Lark,” and while it sounded like a cool name for a game guild, it didn’t make much sense for an elderly care centre.

Si es que hemos pasado el COVID de por medio, y la vacuna 5G les ha vuelto listísimos

WALTER CRONKITE (gravely):
the expectation that everyone be a content factory which runs on clockwork is a toxic fantasy.
let's push against that! let's support one another not acting like tiny corporations! posting 2 or 11 or 99 year old drawings! not posting for months or years for reasons (or no reason)!
