Melodic Hardcore

Pretty sure Sum41 was just called Pop Punk back in 2004

Among the firm’s senior staff is the academic Jonathan Anomaly, who has caused controversy after defending what he describes as “liberal eugenics”.

The guy defending eugenics goes by "Mr. Anomaly"? Why do these stories always feature silly details like that

Demis Hassabis

WTF I know him from ancient gamer days, and now he gets a Nobel prize...in chemistry???

The world is a weird place.

Also didn't he say some questionable stuff in his reddit days or something, or am I misremembering and that was just Peter Molyneux?

If I was gonna sign an agreement to build rail in my country, I wouldn't go with France, or frankly any western country

Fair enough, but maybe they saw the TGV synthwave remixes? That would convince me for sure!

When you, a man from the West, realize it is that dreaded day - when the savages finally catch up.

apparently he had a "jogging accident" last September, and the story I read said he was expected to wear it for a few weeks...?

yeah, "apparently"

The Hot Shots president is like a perfect combination of Donald Trump and Joe Biden. Need to rewatch it soon before that era is over.

This is such a German thing, like only a German could do that because it's so dumb and without any finesse at all.

I mean the whole ship is a German CORVETTE. If you know anything about ships, a corvette is like the lamest warship. The Russians have some interesting designs with like 8 or 16 killer anti ship missiles and they are called missile corvettes, but the German ships don't have anything like that, they're just boring coastal patrol vessels, basically. I'm sure the Thames has seen more impressive ships, and even the dumb German navy has bigger and more impressive ships (which still suck, but they're bigger) so one of those lame duck corvettes playing the Imperial March is just wrong.

And on top of that the whole thing is so German, like the captain is a dull rules-obsessed boomer officer, and he probably really though he was so funny and did a great practical joke, but of course it comes out all wrong and coarse. And then on top of that, THE BRITISH ACTUALLY REPORT IT AS FUNNY! Don't you guys have some self respect. Like Donald Trump says, sad!

Living in Germany in kinda bizarre in this regard - every week, there's a new "spy ring busted" or "drones flying over NATO bases" or now this knife attack. Weirdly enough it's always "federal police" and "media investigations" that discover those dastard affairs, and the government is always silent, and two weeks later the suspects are released and nobody follows up on the story, except that there's a general "Russians spies are all around us!" atmosphere in parts of the population. Many don't care, or have succumbed to the "Russia wants a war with us" atmosphere, at least that's the vibes I'm picking up.

Sorry for all the quotations marks, this is a purely vibes-based analysis.

And to quote a fellow shitposter here some time ago: It's the German years of lead - the years of Kraut kelly
