In case anyone wants to know specifically why this is crazy: here’s a NASA article about magnetic pole shifts/reversals. The short version is:

  • Magnetic North Pole was identified about 200 years ago and since then it’s constantly been drifting so “Pole Shifts” are a constant reality.
  • Complete reversals (where N and S swap) happen every 300,000 years or so on average (varying a lot). The last reversal was actually 780,000 years ago, so I’m not sure what societal collapse this guy knows about from WAY into pre-history.
  • The Earth’s magnetic field has declined in strength in the last 200 years by about 9%, but it’s still twice as intense as it’s million-year average and not going anywhere anytime soon.

Edit: Apparently referencing polar shift in sun.

Also, solar flare activity cycles every 11 years or so. The recent auroras were caused by ejected solar matter interacting with Earth's magnetic field, but that doesn't require or imply that a large polar shift or pole reversal is happening.

marcos ,

See? It’s cyclic! People are even confirming it!

It’s certain people, society collapses every 11 years! Learn how to protect yourself here!

BossDj ,

Well, it implies a polar shift in the sun

AmidFuror ,

Thanks. I hadn't looked at it that way. Will edit.

For general info, 780,000 years ago, there weren’t even modern humans. That’s firmly in Homo erectus times. It predates the oldest cave paintings by a factor of 16…

What's the real downside of the poles switching? We have GPS so in most cases it's not like we were using a compass anyway. Plus once they've fully switched it's basically back to normal, just backwards.

Bad advice. My mom’s dog has bad separation anxiety. She’d have to start blasting every time she leaves home or goes from the car to the grocery store…

Exactly. Also, I had a racist dog one time. I don’t really trust their judgement.

arken ,

Well, I for one want to hear more about your racist dog?

tacosanonymous ,

It was a Llasa Apso. He was very territorial, would bark at anyone if they came into the house. But if we were walking outside, really only barked at Asian and Black people. I blame his grandparents bc they watched too much Fox News.

NikkiDimes ,

I, too, had a racist dog. He didn’t like black people. He grew up in small town Canada where there was only one black family and the dad was the garbage man, so I think he developed a grudge against him coming up to the house once a week, doing his business with the cans, and then leaving.

Eventually we moved to a more populated and diverse area and that grudge carried on targeted at any black men :(. I swear he was a good dog otherwise though lol

FlyingSquid OP ,

I mean, let’s be real – 50% of the USA’s SSN is on a dark web site due to the Equifax breach.

Freeze your credit, it’s the only way to protect yourself. All of the ID protection services are just overpriced insurance and don’t actually prevent ID theft.

possiblylinux127 ,

Its probably closer to 80% or higher if you add in other breaches

vanontom ,
@vanontom@lemmy.world avatar

Yes. Just FYI: All three have free “freeze” option, hidden somewhere (probably thanks to federal law). They also have very similar paid option, which they heavily advertise; That’s not the one. They do all require free accounts, but probably worth it to be able to freeze/unfreeze instantly online.

I just received “dark web” alert about SSN, phone, name, and email… that I only used at AT&T many years ago. So AT&T has definitely leaked our data as well. Add 'em to the list…

kibiz0r , to world in Israeli settlers storm West Bank village, setting cars and homes ablaze

All the people daring the MSM to call them “terrorists”…

Maybe we should just remind the public how bad the word “settler” is: These are state-armed violent militias whose explicit goal is to displace the indigenous occupants of foreign territories.

Terrorists at least tend to emerge in response to (real or perceived) political disposession. That is not the case here. The settlers are the most privileged class in Israel, rewarded for breaking international law.

And we should probably also remember that oppressors always have legitimate grievances to cite when you question what they’re doing. Nobody ever says “We’re invading this land cuz we want it” in the moment.

Duamerthrax ,

“Colonists” might be a good term for them as well.

FenrirIII ,
@FenrirIII@lemmy.world avatar

Why not Invaders? It’s not their land.

Duamerthrax , (edited )

Sure, but Colonists brings up a lot of negative history nowadays. Without a doubt, “Settlers” was their chosen term in an effort to control the language used to describe them.

Fungah ,

How about inmates? Let’s use that term. And make sure its accurate.

livus ,

Colonizers.

They aren’t just in a colony, they are actively engaged in colonizing and trying to take more land through violence.

Wrench ,

Colonists has more of a controlling government connotation to it. The people stay, but are subservient to the rulers.

This is genocide to completely replace the original inhabitants.

chatokun ,

Wait, there are people upset they didn’t go to terrorists? Well, of course there are, but I was shocked a CNN article even used settler, for the points you made. It specifically invokes taking from the people there to benefit themselves, which I didn’t expect CNN of all places to do.

State sponsored terrorists? It’s not like blowing up cars and burning homes bring a calm mind to the people’s who own the cars and houses…

Landless2029 , to assholedesign in 1/3 full brand new deodorant

Shrinkflation at its finest.

Dkarma ,

No, this is just the dollar store travel version and they didn’t want to resize the bottle. Normal deodorant is more like 3 oz. My spray sure deodorant is 6 oz

That being said it’s still a rip off

Landless2029 ,

This makes the most sense actually.

Totally misleading due to the bottle size. I’ve purchased travel overpriced deodorant and it was a half stick anyway.

LifeInMultipleChoice ,

I bought a 2 pack of Gel Deodorant recently before flying, put them in my carry on with whatever else I brought. TSA didn’t care to check the sizes as it went through the scanner. It might not matter as much as we are told.

Last I saw dynamite was made in gel form. Seems more pertinent than liquid in a way. I actually was going to leave them, my mother convinced me to leave their place and fly home with them. Said to myself I will just chuck them in the trash if they had a problem with it.

But the point of a travel size isn’t the amount of product, but the size of the container. This is beyond stupid, before we even get into the unnecessary plastic waste
