US-occupied Japan used to censor newspapers by blocking out sensitive details with black bars. When the US military told them to redact information to make the censorship less obvious, all the Japanese did was write "REDACTED" on top of the bars.

Point is, the "best" censorship is the one people aren't aware of, and give midwits plausible deniability that it was an editorial choice.

Women: "I want a man with a six-figure salary, six feet tall, and six-pack abs."

Men: "I want a woman who's not fat and not a bitch."

Women: "REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!"

I don't want these cretins serving me fries, much less serving in the military.

...Actually, I take it back. Watching these fucks friendly-fire themselves would be endlessly entertaining.

CA Labor Code Section 1101 was designed to protect Communists in 1937. Anyone that thinks it's equally enforced probably also thinks Prop 47 totally isn't legalized shoplifting.

We'll see if Nvidia can hold on to that valuation, or if it's just Jensen bullshitting us. Again.

It's becoming increasingly clear that the only things propping up the US stock market are tech (see: the AI mania) and financial derivatives (i.e. paper bullshit).

Regarding the latter, OPEC is tired of being squeezed between Russia's dirt-cheap oil and the US's currency manipulation and (naked) shorting. We're in for one HELL of a ride should OPEC decide to embargo the West and all those shorts need to be covered.

If you want an improvised hand grenade, then sure, Samsung phones are "fine".

It was Joe Lozito. He didn't die, but the only reason he's still alive was because a stranger staunched his wounds with fucking napkins. Cops were content watching Lozito get stabbed in the next car over and only came in after the stabber overexerted himself.

The communists would send artists and musicians to work camps because they weren't "real" jobs.

I prefer the felon getting plugged by his would-be victim with a bullet or seventeen. It also saves taxpayers money feeding and sheltering human-shaped garbage.

Police are bureaucrats with guns. Most of the time they just write reports and maybe shoo away the rats eating the corpse.

Those surveys you fill out, where you rant and rave about how bad your service was? Those are actually important and actually read.

No, they aren't. They're used to provide "metrics" so they know who's going on the layoff list.

Besides, no one should be filling out surveys with any honesty anyway. Pollute their results with made-up answers. Make those Public Relations fucks actually work for their money.

I would've required an enforceable contract with a nonrefundable deposit if someone were to buy that much shit that it would seriously affect my bottom line if they were to flake.

I can't think of a single Kickstarter that I was glad to be part of. If it weren't for this thread, I wouldn't have thought of Kickstarter at all.

The glowie gay-op is, indeed, a glowie gay-op? Say it ain't so!

Also, a joke:

Q: What do you get when you punch a Nazi?
A: 20 years for assaulting a federal agent.

There's a reason why oil & gas companies are paying record dividends, and it's not because muh Big Oil is muh price gouging. CapEx requires decades before they become profitable; between the Dementia-in-Chief dumping the Strategic Political Petroleum Reserve to suppress oil prices and climate communists wishing for the death of the industry, there's no fucking reason to invest beyond the bare minimum.

It is your solemn duty to make shit up on every poll you're asked to participate in. After all, you're not getting paid for honesty.
