    How Cyclone Alfred unleashed a fresh wave of conspiracy theories

    How Cyclone Alfred unleashed a fresh wave of conspiracy theories

    As climate change ramps up, extreme weather increases and trust in authorities declines, every large natural disaster triggers a wave of misinformation.

    I remember way back in Mad magazine, them taking the piss out of the superman movie where the bad guy wants to take control of the weather satellites so he can control the weather, cos they only monitor not control

    Love the AI generated photo captions in this article.

    "Not Even Native Hawaiian Who Had To Get A Spray Tan": People Are Frustrated With Sydney Agudong's Casting As Nani In The "Lilo & Stitch" Live Action

    "Disrespected Nani with that casting."

    The article is stoopid too ... but the captions made me laugh. (Skip the first photo...)

    @booboo I didn't bother reading the article, but yeah... captions are gold. I think my favourite was the caption under the tweet, which just cited the tweet word-for-word.

    Maidstone mum who punched neighbour 20 times over complaint about loud music at night avoids jail | Kent Online

    A drunk mum "threw her weight" into repeatedly punching a neighbour who had complained about music being played in the middle of the night. Amie Bray struck her victim as many as 20 times to the face, leaving her bruised and in "constant fear" of further assault at the accommodation they shared in...

    I’ll say this now. She will not pay that £50 per month for more than a couple of months.

    KiwiRail Chief Capital Planning and Asset Development Officer Dave Gordon said all incidents at level crossings are recorded, and Maurice Rd already has the maximum protections - flashing lights, bells, and barrier arms.

    “Level crossings are a known safety concern,” Gordon said.

    Morons are the safety concern here

    Feel sorry for the train driver. That shit isn't something you'd want to have to deal with.
