@georgetakei yup, time to start erecting the guillotines in public squares, it's time to remind potential kings what happens when you act in defiance to your citizens.

In "How Men Like Donald Trump, Brett Kavanaugh, And Brock Turner Are Made," writer Amelia Mavis Christnot explores the roots of toxic masculinity and privilege. From Ivy League halls to positions of power, see how entitlement shapes behavior and fuels impunity. A powerful read—dive in now by visiting The Big Picture. https://thinkbigpicture.substack.com/p/culture-made-trump-kavanaugh-turner

@georgetakei Very well written article. What always amazes me isn't so much the toxic people who grew up surrounded by privilege and yes-people becoming so terrible as the way society, as a whole, bends over backwards to enable them to do so even outside of applicable context. For example, when they were "investigating" Kavanaugh and intentionally chose not to interview witnesses and to ask almost no questions, that was no ivy league school -- he was being appointed as a Supreme Court justice.

@georgetakei I’m looking for combat veterans who want to address the loss of the democracy we fought for. To have a few privileged misfits ending this 250 yr democracy is not sitting well with me. We need to take it to them up close.

Soda additive “no longer considered safe,” gets long-awaited FDA ban

Brominated vegetable oil (BVO) is used in citrus sodas but has largely been phased out.

@arstechnica

It's funny how manufacturers were quiet about phasing it out in the US. Apparently the EU banned it long before we did.

Yes, it WAS in Mountain Dew.

Also, it's interesting that there's articles on the internet that resurface every few months saying it's still in drinks, even after it was removed-- probably because, it was never mentioned as being removed.

@arstechnica Brominated vegetable oil was in OK Cola, so, eh.

@georgetakei she's right. That's so gross. Such a ridiculous broadcasting decision to put them in that position.

This is probably one of the worst case scenarios but they're all kinds of innocent sports fans falling victim to the cameras anymore for a variety of reasons and being turned into memes and whatnot.

TLDR - show fans more respect ESPECIALLY women fans when you damn well know what's going to happen on interpretation.

384,000 sites link to code library caught performing supply-chain attack

Many website admins, it seems, have yet to get memo to remove Polyfill[.]io links.

@arstechnica It's not really a "supply chain" - it's a dependency. "supply chain" implies some kind of financial arrangement that simply doesn't exist when using a random person's git repo.
