I hope this news gets in the head of all child murderers going about their lives out there, unpunished. Your time can’t come soon enough, you’ll never be safe, you sick fucks!

Presumably if they somehow didn’t allow it, some higher ups in Russia might find themselves suicided.

Armadous , to world in BBC News - Climate records tumble, leaving Earth in uncharted territory - scientists

“Tumble” seems like a weird way to describe it. I’m thinking “climate records smashed”.

can ,

“climate records melted”

“climate records engulfed in flames”

I cancelled when they first rolled out their test. Cheaper to get a VPN and sail the seas again.

Turns out a lack of labour protections makes your economy more productive in the short term but less productive in the long term.

Odd, that.

ZombieZookeeper , to world in Iran's morality police to resume headscarf patrols

Since Iranian men can’t control themselves, women have to cover up.

A lot of the protesters were also men. Several of them had been shot and killed

Blame the oppressive government and religion, not the people. They’re the victims.

I came here to laugh at the ridicule of the The Onion’s story, only realize, to my horror, that it’s not The Onion…

It must be uncomfortable wearing a fucking maxi pad on your ear all day long.

Be extra careful not to hurt your ear this week, you won't be able to bandage it

rekabis , to music in Jack Black cancels Tenacious D tour and places future projects on hold after Kyle Gass comments on Trump

Most of the western world fought back against the Nazis in WWII for the very reason that fascism is deeply hostile to a healthy democracy and a free society.

Kyle was right: we didn’t teach our soldiers to miss back then, so there is no excuse to miss now.

A_Random_Idiot ,

Was a right wing idiot, listening to right wing hate and violence, who took a shot at a right wing idol.

Theres nothing “ours” or “soldier” about it.

Tbf, there was a WWII instructional film that taught “how to get killed”, but that was sarcastic (and about the Pacific theater)

autotldr Bot , to world in Gaza man with Down's syndrome attacked by IDF dog and left to die

This is the best summary I could come up with:


And when the war started and he was terrorised by the sound of bombs falling, someone always said things were going to be ok. Muhammed was heavy and found movement difficult.

Along with other residents of Shejaiya, east of Gaza City centre, the Bhars were given orders to evacuate by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF).

But the Bhars were tired of moving.In a weary tone, Nabila, who is a widow, reeled off the names of relatives’ homes where they’d sought shelter.“We evacuated around 15 times.

Nabila says there were several dozen soldiers with a combat dog - animals used to find Hamas fighters, and check for booby traps and explosives.

A terrified Muhammed, who had always depended on his family for help, was now in the care of combat soldiers, who had come from streets where they’d been fighting close quarter battles with Hamas.

“This scene I will never forget… I constantly see the dog tearing at him and his hand, and the blood pouring from his hand… It is always in front of my eyes, never leaving me for a moment.


The original article contains 1,130 words, the summary contains 182 words. Saved 84%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!

jarfil , to technology in Elon Musk's SpaceX contracted to destroy retired space station - BBC News

Keep in mind that “having a plan”, doesn’t say when that plan is to be executed.

If you asked me, every object launched into orbit, should have a safe de-orbit plan beforehand. Chances are, as more private entities get onboard launching space stations, there might be regulations put in place to require a de-orbit plan for the launch to get approved.

Getting a de-orbit plan for the ISS now, might be just a preemptive plan for when those regulations get enacted.

Midnitte ,

Agreed, though NASA is definitely planning to Deorbit the ISS, probably sometime after 2030.

They’re not trying to get ahead of some regulation, but want to stop having to spend so many resources on maintaining it, when they could be doing other things.

Guntrigger , to news in Homeless sent out of Edinburgh to make room for Taylor Swift fans

Were they staying in hotels, or will the Swifties be sleeping on the streets?

@tal@lemmy.today avatar

Apparently they had been giving homeless people some amount of unused hotel space.

The housing charity said people being declared homeless in Edinburgh who would usually be offered temporary accommodation such as hotels were being sent out of the city due to a severe shortage in accommodation caused by the concert.

QuantumSpecter OP ,

No, the city of edinburgh pays for these bookings.

Guntrigger ,

That seems like a great initiative. It seems wild it can be completely undermined because someone famous is having a concert.

oo1 ,

I'd imagine the same scenario for most of August for the festival too.

rbn ,

Tbf if there are shitloads of reservations it’s not ‘unused hotel rooms’ anymore. I think hotel rooms’ should be rather a temporary solution while the government is searching for a more permanent shelter. If you decide permanently use a hotel to give people shelter, that’s a great thing but then it’s not a hotel anymore.
