  • In theory Nitrogen suffocation should be incredibly humane. Nitrogen gas is incredibly dangerous in the workplace exactly because the human body is incapable of noticing it displacing air. It can kill you without you even noticing until you keel over dead.

    Problem is when you shove a mask on someone’s face and pump nitrogen into it, that’s not what you’re doing…

    That doesn’t displace the air the executed was breathing, because the air has nowhere to go, so it just mixes with the Nitrogen gas. The O2 gets used up and CO2 builds up until they die, which is basically normal suffocation (which is incredibly inhumane) with a side of Nitrogen gas.

    To do it properly, you’d need to a much bigger chamber so that the air in the executed’s lungs would be easily displaced, or a way to filter the CO2 out of the air they’re breathing… But who’s got time for that, when you can just torture prisoners with something that should be humane and pretend you have no idea why it “doesn’t work properly” /s




  • Customs and Border Protection said in an emailed statement, “Arriving aliens bear the burden of establishing admissibility to the United States.”

    One, that language is a solid ick.

    Two, while it may be true that she has to prove admissability…

    A notice of court order violation filed Saturday said CBP “had actual notice of this Court’s order and willfully disobeyed this Court’s order.” It further requested an order to return Alawieh to Massachusetts immediately and to schedule an emergency hearing as soon as practicable.

    … What the fuck is she meant to do when they refuse to accept her documents (a valid passport and H-1B visa), and then deport her in spite of an explicit court order??





  • Tell you what Nicole is really dedicated to making friends on here. Messaged just about everybody, with multiple accounts even. Definitely nothing suspicious about that /s

    The fact that they’re still doing this means people are falling for it, and I feel sorry for those people, cause this scam is clearly designed to prey on those who feel lonely and are too naive to know better



  • I don’t think appeasement is the right word, as that would imply Trump is actually trying to help Ukraine rather than trying to slowly create a narrative to justify abandoning Ukraine to Russia.

    The worst part is I would bet Zelensky is keenly aware of what Trump is up to, but knows any attempt to distance from Trump would only make it easier for Trump to justify abandoning his people to the wolves.

    Honestly feel horrible for Zelensky. Imagine having to sit there and be shouted down to by two men so obviously and utterly corrupt that they consider helping your country fight off tyranny to be a favour, as though that isn’t what the Western world should be doing by default.



  • Yeah…

    • A game with actual gambling disguised as a loot system - perfectly fine, PEGI 3+

    • A game that depicts gambling but has no actual gambling in it - absolutely fucking NOT, PEGI 18+

    I can understand why PEGI would be hesitant to give a game depicting gambling a rating of 3+…

    But putting it as 18+, on the same level as actual, real money gambling games is ridiculous.

    It shows a complete lack of awareness regarding the difference in danger between depiction of gambling vs actual gambling. And perhaps more dangerously means malicious publishers (cough EA cough) are able to get away with slipping disguised real money gambling into their games (and in front of children eyes) unnoticed.
