  • A lot if time, as one example, it’s conditional on conviction. So not only do they have to cat h the guy they have to win in court. That’s not money in exchange for the tip itself.

  • He did his Irish Goodbye before Luigi. I’m saying, the high potential for not getting reward money was known prior.

  • Im on Season 6 of my once a decade rewatch. They’ve still not hooked up. Jean Luc is running around with Vash. Bev had her ambassador until the trill half died. Meanwhile, these guys have breakfast together, dance around the possibility of a together, and that is all.

  • The way in which Luigi was arrested is part of their safety checks. A way to motivate working class to turn people in, without paying them. I generally thought reward money worked.

    I learned it did not work from a podcast that no longer exists. Michael Bazzel’s OSINT podcast talked about it within the context of people who used OSINT to find people on wanted lists and how reward money collection actually works. (Podcast doesn’t exist any more, the copies of the casts went away with the podcast.). Sadly, there’s no replacement for this type of news and info condensed down into one place. It’s also a niche area of information, not followed by many.

    Those McDonald's workers were not paid for turning Luigi in. But they thought they would be.

    Even so, look at the bigger picture. How many Luigi’s have there been since 1981?

    Most people avoid confrontation, spending most of their days sitting in a chair or lying down, and thinking/hoping/wishing a white knight is going to rescue them from their situation. It’s one reason why so many people exist in bad relationships (1 or a chain of them). Because they think that other person is going to rescue them from their sad days of avoiding confrontation while sitting in a chair or lying down, most of the day for most of their days. Hoping. But never doing. Thinking about doing. Maybe spouting off on the internet about doing. But never doing.

  • Never underestimate the power of inertia. Some people live their entire lives on it.

  • People who talk to you like an AI bot. Maybe that’s why the AI talks that way. It’s all they know.

  • If you ever listen to Behind the Bastards, then you’ll notice a pattern of emotional stunting in the growth of billionaires. The kids that have the money straight away, not the ones that really do make it themselves wherever they are.

    Exemplar: Elon.

    Though the imagery that sticks out in my mind is one of Zuckerberg playing mall ninja in his original office space, as the boss, walking around with a samurai sword and fake swiping at employees with it.

  • It started out that way. I don’t think it’s wrong to question the current power dynamics. Why would the US and UK care in the least of some college students are sitting in protest of Gaza? Nothing in that act changes their daily in the least. Nothing.

    Unless someone else is calling the shots.

  • He raped a 13 year old girl. There. I said what should be in the headlines.

    “Underage woman” is a phrase used by pedophile supporters.

  • Even in paper days journalism deliberately packed their first and second sentences of an article with the most punchy and relevant details because they knew, with every additional sentence, readers were lost.

    The line is buried. And could be stated more succinctly with “13 year old girl”, punching in the relevant details.

    Instead, extra words are added. It’s deliberate. And it’s journalism’s job not to do this because a large slice of readers will hit only the key words and move on.

  • forced a woman to give him oral sex when she was in her early teens

    Talk about failure as a journalist. I just can’t with these assholes. They’re almost as guilty as Trump in that their word choice helps every last one of those bastards get away with it.

    If the GIRL was a TEEN, then she was a CHILD, not a woman. I don’t care about the potential for alternative interpretations here. The frame placed on the situation is done with one word: woman. Not teen. Not child. Not kid. Not girl. “Woman”. Which creates a sideways shift in perception.

    I am so sick of this shit.
