In 1944, Duncan was one of the last people convicted under the Witchcraft Act 1735 (9 Geo. 2 c. 5), which made falsely claiming to procure spirits a crime.

WTF

Fuck these absolute ghouls.

This was not an arrest: this was a kidnapping and torture. This Nazi shit has got to stop.

WPS Office version of Excel is a surprisingly good alternative.

OOTL, when, where was this?

If people watched the Qatar World Cup where they literally killed thousands of slaves to build the soccer stadiums, only to say that the US is too bad for them to deal with… You know things are getting rough.

Match that with the fact you can try to avoid Amazon and shop in sites directly, only to and the product come in an Amazon box from your local Amazon warehouse, and all shopping is now Amazon.

Fun fact, taco bell was mostly popular in the US, so in the rest of the world, another Pepsi-owned fast food chain was subbed in: Now all restaurants are Pizza Hut

Yeah, but who contributed the most to Black Mesa?

I wish I could say I was surprised.

We can have more than one problem. But the 2 party system makes it easier for the parties to suck because there’s no real competition. You can have GOP or GOP-lite. Governments with more parties have measurably healthier democracies.

This feels like an oversimplification – let’s not forget that billionaires have poured untold sums of money into funding right-wing propaganda…and that virtually every major platform is owned and operated by billionaires with right-wing agendas.

Not only did Elon Musk spend billions on Twitter to make sure only voices he like get platformed, but Youtube has a well documented history of pushing more and more radical right-wing content to users, and Donald Trump just made sure that the one online place where left-wing voices were able to dominate (TikTok) was forced to be sold to his buddy, Larry Ellison.

Y’all are right that 40% is insanely low, but remember that there is a massive propaganda machine, coupled with an attack on education…all designed to make compliant workers.

Of course I do, I live in the US.

Not to brag, but I can care about 2 things at once. 🧠

The Trump FCC chair started it by threatening ABC’s license as well as licenses of ABC affiliates…Nexstar/Sinclair said they wouldn’t broadcast the show, then ABC bowed to pressure and said the show was cancelled indefinitely.

Disney is worth $200+ billion, and if they fought this in court, the first amendment is clearly on their side. But like Paramount before them, they are complying in advance.

Good job!

Because they buy up companies more often than normal people buy milk.
