Gork , in ‘Worrying lack of moderation’: how eating disorder posts proliferate on X

I never knew there were pro-eating disorder groups out there. wtf

Nurse_Robot ,

It’s important to remember there’s literally everything on the Internet.

LillyPip ,

Whoever invents the ‘unsee’ pill will become richer than god.

Nurse_Robot ,

Idk liquor works pretty well and is already a booming industry

LillyPip ,

Sadly, no amount of liquor has been able to erase live-action Smurf porn from my brain.

Promotion of anorexia is the promotion of behaviors related to the eating disorder anorexia nervosa. It is often referred to simply as pro-ana or ana.

I remember when ‘thinspiration’ websites were common in late 90’s/early 2000’s. It was a toxic cesspool of pro-ana pictures and forums.

Treczoks , in Russia Secretly Worms Its Way Into America’s Conservative Media | Federal prosecutors say Russia paid an American media company to push pro-Kremlin messages from social media influencers

“worms it’s way into”? Boy, you’re late, that worming has been done ages ago. It laid its eggs, and they did hatch already.

_stranger_ , in White House warns Iran on missile transfers to Russia.

Us: Don’t give missiles to Russia.

Iran: Dafuq? Like we’re even frenemies, who the fuck…bitch you’re feeding that shit to Ukraine like it’s Christmas.

US: Fuck yeah I am, we’re building a pipeline, trucks are too slow, the WEAPONS must FLOW.

Now cut that shit out before I ask you twice.

Iraq: 💢

rc__buggy , in Trump rebrands his ramblings as ‘I do the weave’ – but is he just losing it?

Oh Donny… it’s not a weave, you got plugs. Years ago.

Cephalotrocity , in Trump rebrands his ramblings as ‘I do the weave’ – but is he just losing it?

Most elderly people I know take up knitting, but you wanna weave baskets while you ramble incoherently be my guest. Here’s your soup. Don’t spill it!

Steve , in Judge rules Missouri ballot measure to protect abortion rights is invalid

According to Limbaugh, his decision came as a result of the campaign’s “failure to include any statute or provision that will be repealed, especially when many of these statues are apparent”.

Is that a requirement of amendments in Missouri?
What if an amendment doesn’t repeal any current statute, but makes new law?

I would enjoy it if she brought out a large 2 minute countdown timer to start every time he starts talking.

some_guy , in Cop Who Shot Sonya Massey Lied to Make a Drug Arrest. It Didn't Hurt His Career

The video of the shooting is so bizarre. I can’t understand how it escalated for him. Like, I can usually see what a cop’s motivation is even if I think it’s wrong. But for this guy, it’s as though being told, “I don’t like you,” was interpreted as a physical threat. It’s just incomprehensible.

Glad he’s been charged.

pearsaltchocolatebar ,

He wanted to murder someone and get away with it.

It’s not any more complicated than that.

orcrist ,

And also she was black. That made her a good target in his eyes.

Signtist ,

A lot of cops are so high strung that you essentially have to pretend you’re having the time of your life while interacting with them - any nervousness or annoyance is taken to mean that you’re potentially a violent criminal who could kill them at any moment.

Just the realization that a woman holding a pot of hot water could hypothetically use it as a weapon, however unlikely it was in this scenario, was enough to make him instinctively shoot with only minor notice that still did nothing to prevent him from killing her even as she began cowering and apologizing.

This is the culture we’ve allowed the police to build in this country; the job is dangerous, and they’re only human, so they believe they should be forgiven for being scared regardless of the situation, and should be forgiven for taking drastic measures while they’re scared.

DrFuggles , in Cops lure pedophiles with AI pics of teen girl. Ethical triumph or new disaster?

I feel like there’s two stories here:

  1. Snap is a pedo grooming ground
  2. Police are generating fake CSAM
  3. is, well, yeah . Like any major network you have creeps, Nazis and pedos and it’s good to root them out. It’s weird that themselves don’t do that.
  4. is … difficult. I feel like the cops that prompt GenAIs to produce (sexualized) images of children risk severe trauma. It must be punishing to ask a a machine to produce fake images of morally reprehensible material. That’s gotta take a toll on you. What’s even more important is that those people could be spending their time taking down actual child abuse images.

I can’t wrap my head around that.

Strange that the moderation on Xitter disappeared after that utter genius Elon fired all the moderators.

Leave Xitter and let it die peacefully in its own toxic sludge.

mariusafa , in Donald Trump Says Elon Musk Will Lead 'Government Efficiency' Task Force

MrRobot plot IRL just droped!

LillyPip , in Trump rebrands his ramblings as ‘I do the weave’ – but is he just losing it?

And it’s like friends of mine that are like English professors, they say: ‘It’s the most brilliant thing I’ve ever seen,’”

Meanwhile, back here in reality, one of his actual professors at Wharton repeatedly referred to Trump as the dumbest student he’d ever had:

according to attorney Frank DiPrima, who was close friends with professor William T. Kelley for 47 years, […] I remember the inflection of his voice when he said it: ‘Donald Trump was the dumbest goddamn student I ever had!’

lolcatnip ,

Also, it’s weird for him to claim to be friends with the a bunch of the very same people Republicans decry as ivory tower liberal elitists. He’s weird.

tigeruppercut ,

He doesn’t have a single friend

fpslem , in Treasury recovers $1.3 billion in unpaid taxes from high-wealth tax dodgers

Who’s Yellen now? (This song was actually commissioned by APM’s Marketplace when Janet Yellen became Secretary of the Treasury, but feels appropriate now.)

Saleh , in White House warns Iran on missile transfers to Russia.

Savett said that the United States has been warning about the “deepening security partnership between Moscow and Tehran” since the onset of Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine.

He added, “As we and our allies made clear at both the G7 summit and the NATO meeting this summer, we are prepared to deliver a swift and severe response if Iran were to move forward with such transfers.”

Savett, commenting on Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian’s claims about efforts to improve Iran’s relations with the West, said, “Despite these claims, the missile transfer program demonstrates that the Islamic Republic continues to alienate itself from the international community and contribute to threats against European security. Therefore, we assess the leadership of the Islamic Republic based on their actions, not their statements.”

Weird. I remember it was the US that unilaterally destroyed the JCPOA despite the IEA confirming Iran to uphold its side of the deal. And then the US invited Iranian diplomats to Iraq, only to assassinate them, which is a huge breach of international protocols. Also the US is providing billions and billions of weapons to Irans strategic enemies, Israel and Saudi Arabia.

But of course Iran is at fault for seeking relationships with other countries also opposed to the US. If it wasn’t for Trump destroying the relations and Biden doing fuck all to repair them, Iran could have been much closer to the West. Now Ukraine is suffering additionally because of the US destroying diplomatic developments between the EU countries and their geopolitical neighbors.
