Thinking about how Dreamworks would punish the animators who missed deadlines on The Prince of Egypt by making them work on Shrek which got known as getting ‘Shreked’.

its kind of hilarious how random Indian superstitions are ... "you owe transgenders large sums of money to celebrate births and weddings or else you will have perpetual bad luck"

This was the guy who got jailed for shooting the lunatic who threw boiling water at him. Just a normal every day cop.

Died of advanced colon cancer. Everyone in the replies is celebrating his death. Sad state of affairs.

It’s hard to convey to people who haven’t seen this stuff just how rife it is in the humanities and social sciences today. I remember going to Cambridge to study anthropology and thinking I would be asking big questions about human nature and bizarre rituals and customs, but all of that stuff had largely stopped by the 1970s and been replaced with the most absurd navel-gazing postmodern crap about “identity,” “the colonial critique” and “reflexive anthropology.”

Worst of all, by far, is “autoethnography,” where the social scientist becomes the object of study and reflects on their own experience doing research or just talk about their biography and background. It’s barely elevated above an early 2010s Tumblr blog and often it’s much much worse.

To call individuals frauds in disciplines like social anthropology is actually a red herring. It’s the disciplines themselves that are fraudulent. They need to be replaced wholesale.

She called the cops at 3 AM to report a "break in" the cops arrive and there is no break in, she is standing by a pot of boiling water with sugar in it (notorious for lasting/damaging burns) she then threatens to throw boiling water/pot at his head (and does)

Sonya Massey lured those cops to her house to blind/scar them for life by throwing boiling water in their faces, she verbally threatens to do it, then even after being shot literally gets back up and does it, I can't even say it was premature because she was in the process of putting on the oven mitts and has them on by the time she gets back up. (intent)

I can understand thinking he was wrong if you did not see the slow motion/close up but to me its clear: her intention was to attack the cops with boiling water.

Before you accuse me of bias remember that I am openly critical of police when I believe its warranted—these are simply the facts.

The cop did nothing wrong and didn't deserve this.

Just learned that a lot of Arday’s papers were “autoethnography” where he would basically interview himself about the experience of being a black academic with autism and then quote the interview and analyse it

Fascinating.

Yes there are anime meet-ups in Rwanda. 30 years ago Rwandans were genociding each other - now they cosplay as anime characters. How does Paul Kagame keep getting away with it? Truly Africa’s greatest living leader

These things have to be a piss take now. Do they not have any photos of them just being normal people?

[The Laymans Take @thelaymanstake]

This reminds me of when Jordan Peterson first became famous. Huge numbers of college students would show up to his speeches to yell, disrupt, pull fire alarms and block entrances.

So he started doing his speeches at 7am. Then unsurprisingly, no protesters showed up because, apparently the communist Revolution that would save world wasn't worth getting about of bed early for, lmao

Long post but I have a theory, hear me out.

They’re not doing this because they believe a coloured circle on a map will reform a savage, they’re doing it because the infrastructure for controlling movement is being built in stages.

First you create the legal tool and the technology for restriction zones, you test it on the group nobody will defend, serious offenders.

You normalise the idea that the state can draw a line and tell certain people “you stay inside this area.”

Then you expand the categories, then you link it to digital ID so enforcement becomes automatic, then the zones stop being about “offenders” and start being about risk scores, compliance or simply who the system wants managed.

How do they enforce it on people who don’t care about rules? They don’t rely on the offender’s conscience.

They rely on the system around him, ankle tags, phone tracking, facial recognition, banking restrictions, and the threat of immediate recall to prison.

The zone is just the visible part, Burnham’s regionalisation fits the same direction.

Smaller units of government with more local control tools means more places where these systems can be trialled and normalised without needing one big national announcement that wakes everyone up at once.

Thoughts?
