It’s a captive bolt pistol, or cattle gun. It’s what they use in slaughter houses to stun animals before killing them.

In commercial operations, rates of failure can be significant and multiple shots are often used. One study looking at cattle found that 12% were shot multiple times, and 12.5% were inadequately stunned. Other research has recorded higher error rates, such as a study looking at young kangaroos and finding that 38% failed to be stunned.

Ahhh, the meat industry. Isn’t it beautiful…

Mary Magdalene was not a prostitute. That’s a common misconception.

The portrayal of Mary Magdalene as a prostitute began in 591, when Pope Gregory I identified Mary Magdalene, who was introduced in Luke 8:2, with Mary of Bethany (Luke 10:39) and the unnamed “sinful woman” who anointed Jesus’s feet in Luke 7:36–50.

But Jesus was most certainly very accepting of people from all walks of life. That was like his whole purpose. So the other comment about him rejecting people from the community is dead wrong. If anything, people reproached him because he was too accepting of the “sinners”.

This is incorrect. This is not a healed scar at all. That’s a very fresh burn wound exposing the flesh underneath without the melanin layer.

You can literally see the wound is fresh and is peeling off. Not a healed scar.

Go look up healed burn scars on black skin. The images can be pretty gruesome, but the melanin mostly returns.

No, it’s not at all. This is total nonsense. If anything, superheroes are usually persecuted by the government.

Spider-Man specifically is literally an outlaw.

And look at the X-Men. Half the time the gov wants to wipe mutants out.

Maybe you can say that about Captain America, but he was created to defeat the Nazis. So yeah, who the fuck is not on the government side in this situation?

And when the gov became corrupt, Captain America became an outlaw.

So whoever is upvoting this and whoever created this doesn’t know much about Marvel or comics.

I mean I don’t know that much, but I know the bare minimum to know this is nonsense.

Elon Musk is not spending $45 million a month to elect former President Donald Trump, though he has created a new super political action committee (PAC) to fund the Republican candidate, the billionaire told conservative commentator Jordan Peterson during an interview Monday evening.

What a bullshit headline. It’s literally the first line of the article.

So he is spending money to fund Trump. He’s just going through a super PAC because he can’t legally straight up give Trump 45 million.

He probably talked to his lawyers and they told him to correct himself.

Yeah, but you still have a 99.999…% chance of not getting your dick amputated on any given day as a Brazilian.

It’s still a minuscule chance of getting your dick amputated due to penile cancer. Penile cancer itself is extremely rare. Less than 0.01% chance.

“NewsBreak”, a free app with roots in China that is the most downloaded news app in the United States.

Never heard of it. Hard to believe it’s the most downloaded news app. I guess I’m out of touch.

Turning 43 this year if you take the common 1981 as the cut-off.

Sounds like “Too Shy” by Kajagoogoo

Meh. Your value as a human isn’t tied to your accomplishments (be it having a family or getting a high paying job) or productivity.

This whole thing of “striving as a honed skill” sounds like hustling culture and capitalist brainwashing. In fact, I would say it takes more skill to actually be content with your life and not feel the constant need to strive to be someone better or do something more.

You seem to think that unless you’ve done something, you’re worthless.

It seems that according to your view, a homeless person without a family is completely worthless.

What’s a good site to compare cpus and gpus?

Yes, let’s fight prejudice by stereotyping a whole race, gender, and sexual orientation…

Yeah, this is ridiculous. Imagine living in a world where you are afraid of joking because people will lose their minds.

Even if his joke was even worse than this, who cares? The people at the party would have thought, “Wow, this guy is lame,” and that would have been enough of a consequence.

What kind of puritanical, pearl-clutching, and judgemental society are we creating with these outrageous reactions. Get a life people.

If you wanna hate him, hate him for actual valid reasons. Don’t become a petty gossip-monger.

4 years where? To become a real psychologist (not a therapist) in most places you need a PhD or a PsyD. In total, you probably do at least 8 years of schooling.

Not to mention that that “book full of labels” is constantly reviewed and was made based on consensus from psychiatrists, which are medical doctors with a lot more than 4 years of schooling.

Yeah, don’t get me started on subtitles. It’s the wild west out there to get standardized good subtitles.

It’s a hobby in itself just fixing all the crappy subs.
