This article speculates the reason for the swift cancellation of Irreversible Damage: The Transgender Craze (...) release in Japan might no be due to protests as publishers ignored those before, but because they found Regnery platforms authors with ties to the Unification Church

The idea that HW is meant to have 1000 kids with that few staff members is hilarious.
You're looking at 6+ teachers per mandatory subject for that many students. One Potions teacher? Get real.
@Johntheduncan
"Ooh I'm about to get real edgy" followed by 2 minutes of the most bottom-of-the-barrel rape and 911 one-liners really is deeply pathetic.

Shinzo Abe (former JP Prime Minister) was assassinated by a guy with a homemade gun because he had ties to a massive cult that stole all the guy's Mom's money.
In the aftermath Japan started cracking down on said cult.

Hell I taught at a school with around 300 students (much more realistic for Hogwarts) and even then we had 3-5 teachers for each of Maths, Science and English.
No wonder Snape is so pissed all the time, he's got 100 books to mark in before his fourth Year 9 Potions of the day

Honestly this still isn't as funny as the actual real footage of Jared Leto struggling to understand how to interact with the anime fox girl interviewing him.
@Amberia_press
The cult in question is linked to an awful hateful book called Irreversible Damage that was going to be published in Japanese but was rescinded shortly after the announcement.

When the prof is answering questions: "lol look at this nerd. What a blowhard I'm not even gonna bother listening"
When the prof has cottoned on to the grift: "every second here is extremely important. Look at how little he's willing to say"
Insidious shit.

Of course, the size of trucks logically scales with the size of countries. This is why China, Russia, and Canada have enormous trucks that dwarf American ones.
Hold on I'm being handed a note.

Calmly closing my eyes and trying not to think about how the Obama administration spent 2 years whining on twitter about the Republicans refusing to vote on their 2016 nomination instead of doing anything about it.
@AliceAvizandum
This is always such a weird hypothetical because it relies on the exact intersection between:
A. Being prideful enough to want to win a race at any cost
B. Being not prideful enough to care that literally everyone knows you didn't deserve it

This is a terrible bingo sheet. Many are just rephrasing or duplicates and some have multiple points in one square.
Also wasps are all ugly. I would never look at a wasp and say "what a beautiful wasp". Truly shameful.

Nah it'd be extremely cool for T S Eliot, who was extremely far-right, pro-ethnostate, anti-progressive, and advocated for theocratic monarchy, to learn that his work was made into a queer celebration of sexuality.

Damn bro I wonder who's more likely to get paid likes, the independent satirical news website or the billionaire whose fanbase is full of hexagon pfps.

Most of those places you listed were colonised and violently governed by white people for anything from decades to centuries are you okay?

Kennedy authorised the use of Agent Orange during the Vietnam war to starve out the fighters, a move which caused Vietnamese people exposed to the chemical severe medical problems to this day.

TIL health funding and shelter is allocated based on twitter users calling you names, and not by the combined efforts of Republicans and Democrats both treating the working class as a resource to be chewed up and spat out as part of the military industrial complex.

Weird how they're only showing up to support transphobes then. Presumably there's something you're doing that make them think they're welcome in your ranks.

Deeply indicative of the White British psyche to have four schools in Europe, with one being UK-only, and yet have India and China share one school between 1/3 of the World population.

And again, a normal person in a civilised country might respond to that by asking why this inexplicable gap in regional jurisdiction is allowed to exist, when apparently enough people live there to make the fee crucial to not bankrupting the department (according to you)

Everyone's done an excellent job roasting you, but the observer should know that controlling access to shelter, resources and family by claiming sole ownership is an extremely common tactic by abusers in all sorts of relationships.
This is why individual consumer boycotts will never work to push your fav companies away from business practices you don't like.
They've spent millions developing a model that means that for every person who boycotts a product, 5 more will be convinced to open their wallet.
The problem is, you can't "personal responsibility" yourself out of a systemic issue. And that's what predatory monetisation is; systemic. The AAA games industry has a lot of insidious ways of breaking down people's resistance and cave in.
Turning players into payers.

Same energy as Jimmy Dore watching Shaun's video - a slideshow intercut with footage from his show - and immediately concluding he must have a massive media backing because the production values are so high.

At this stage the idea of a singular "Sea People" is pop history at best. Even the veracity of the sources that claim Sea Peoples (plural) as the cause of civilizational collapse is in question.

Also the fact that they tweet like once a week coping about this fact by saying it's because they're uncompromising and a truthteller and people hate the truth.

The "Japanese" corporate aesthetic of cyberpunk first grew out of American cultural fear of Japan becoming a dominant superpower in the wake of their postwar economic and technological boom.

What if we all had a donation box at work, and every time we got paid we put some of that into the box. Then someone comes around and collects all those donations up and uses it to pay doctors and bin men.

The way he says this as if he's had to apply for a job anywhere in the past 4 decades.
Like congratulations, your GCSEs didn't mean much back when you could still walk into an interview, say a slur, and get hired on the spot. Kids today don't tend to have that luxury.
