Another 1st worlder with a snarky opinion nobody wants to hear.
>>25065
Pretty much anyone will agree that despite Christianity's problems, the problems stemming from Islam are 100x worse
This story's pretty intense...
Monica Velsaco allegedly helped manage her family’s criminal ring, which prosecutors say smuggled “huge quantities” of marijuana into the US, kidnapped victims for ransom, and ripped off rival traffickers to sell their stolen drugs.

>President Barack Obama on Tuesday vowed to “once and for all” close the detention center at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba and transfer the most detainees to a facility in the U.S., submitting a plan short on specifics and unlikely to make headway with opponents in Congress.
>Obama cast his proposal as a moment to turn the page on a facility that for years has raised nettlesome legal questions, become a recruitment tool for violent extremists and garnered strong opposition from some allies abroad.

the nuclear waste from the Manhattan Project ended up buried in a landfill in St.Louis Missouri after changing hands throughout the decades, there it has sat and now an underground landfill fire threatens to spread to it
It is an undeclared national emergency, if that waste burns, it could make a massive area around it uninhabitable
Actor Adam Baldwin quits Twitter over platform's silencing of conservatives

>Twitter BTFO because Adam Baldwin, the least important least well known of the Baldwins, left
....Yeah ok.
Only good baldwin is alec. others are garbage tier
>>25155
I think he means it's "BTFO" because it shows that people are tired of being censored and told what they can or cannot say by some arbitrary moral police. Do I agree with conservatives? No. My opinion would never be silenced because I'm not one of them anyway, but the fact is that I also don't think that their opinions, for whatever reason, should be censored, have to wait a certain period before being seen by others, etc., while other opinions get out there instantly.
It's fundamentally...

The pic is not related , its a pic from malware that has infected your computer asking you to pay to unlock it . (Hence the "we locked your computer because you were doing illegal things , buuuuut well let you off if you pay us 100 €"
The "www.spiegel.de" artikle states , that they may only use a trojan to infekt computers affiliated with suspects , if concrete leads are present which endanger the life , health or freedom of another citizen

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration confirmed on Thursday that it would begin testing for residues of the controversial herbicide glyphosate on foods sold in the U.S. for the first time this year. Glyphosate, the active ingredient in Roundup, is widely sprayed on American farms, and is the most-used agricultural chemical in the world. It has been labeled “probably carcinogenic to humans” by the United Nations’ International Agency for Research on Cancer, though...

Cool. A good way to stimulate conversation is to include your thoughts on the matter.

I use roundup and I hope the food I eat doesn't give me cancer? That's about all I have to say
Thanks

>Remember a few days ago, when Twitter elevated anti-GamerGate leader Anita Sarkeesian to its “Trust and Safety Council,” an imperious-sounding committee with Robespierre-esque powers to police discussion on the social media platform? The goal, according to Twitter, was to make it easier for users to express themselves freely and safely.

I'm sure it's to cover their asses should something unfavorable come their way if it is discovered by a consumer of some kind.
