If any of you fellow europeans have any backbone, you'll not watch Eurovision this weekend. If you have tickets, don't go to the show. I'm hoping the other countries refuse to perform, so they won't have a show to broadcast. Let eden and her sad little delegation perform her sad little act in front of an empty stadium.

Non so più come farvi capire che dovete boicottare questa merda
Nb. Le bandiere degli altri paesi sono vietate da un pezzo, per questo motivo non pensate di assistere ad una protesta pro-palestina, non ci sarà

A woman went viral for being turned down for a next interview for a role, she asks the recruiter what she did wrong, the recruiter tells her they were “concerned about her lack of effort in her appearance.”
She explains she wore a freshly ironed blazer with a collared top. Her nails were painted a professional beige. She got a blowout for her hair, so a professional style. She had on subdued gold earrings.
The only thing she wasn’t wearing was makeup; she states she really doesn’t wear makeup, and only had chapstick on, as her skin is sensitive. Her lawyer mother has already explained she has no legal case against the company for any type of gender-based discrimination.
Just in case anyone wants to ask why feminists still refer to the “pink tax” or rail against more and more elaborate makeup trends being pushed on girls and women.
Women being punished socially for not wearing makeup is still a feminist issue.

Y'all, the world is sleeping on what NASA just pulled off with Voyager 1
The probe has been sending gibberish science data back to Earth, and scientists feared it was just the probe finally dying. You know, after working for 50 GODDAMN YEARS and LEAVING THE GODDAMN SOLAR SYSTEM and STILL CHURNING OUT GODDAMN DATA.
So they analyzed the gibberish and realized that in it was a total readout of EVERYTHING ON THE PROBE. Data, the programming, hardware specs and status, everything. They realized that one of the chips was malfunctioning.
So what do you do when your probe is 22 Billion km away and needs a fix? Why, you just REPROGRAM THAT ENTIRE GODDAMN THING. Told it to avoid the bad chip, store the data elsewhere.
Sent the new code on April 18th. Got a response on April 20th - yeah, it's so far away that it took that long just to transmit.
And the probe is working again.
From a programmer's perspective, that may be the most fucking impressive thing I have ever heard.

Everyone can understand at a corporate level that Starbuck is hurting financially in a big way right now. But let me share some insight at a single store level.
I've have friends who work at Starbucks. We're all very open with what goes on behind the scenes at our jobs because we truly don't care about keeping company secrets. We were all talking about how annoying work has been lately and they had volunteered some info on the weekly earnings at their storefront and the numbers are pure garbage!
I was told their Starbucks is only turning a profit of $3000 a week. Now those numbers might sound impressive off the bat, but my friends assured me those numbers were terrible because before the protests they would pull $7000 a week!
The protests have cut their sales by more than half! They're basically only selling less than $40 an hour! If a mom and pop store pulled those numbers they'd be foreclosing their shop as we speak!
Starbucks is hurting. McDonald's is hurting. Many brands and stores are feeling the weight of their anti Palestinian views and they're maulding!! The protests are working. Hurt them some more!
