This is a good question. “Antelope” is the term they used because he was hunting a yellow-backed duiker. Which is like the Chihuahua of the antelope world, and no one would know what that is. They’re super hard to find, so he likely was out in the bush and got too close to elephants that thought he was a poacher and killed him. Many stressed elephant populations attack any human they see with a gun, even rangers, due to trauma. Also, this guy was a trophy hunter, with a house full of numerous dead animals.
So, in short, this guy needed therapy, not another trophy.

WTF did I just watch?
The Orangutan figured out how to use one of those weird squeeze-scoot things? This has to be fake.
- Comment on Finally paid off my Costco hotdog in 4 easy installments! 3 weeks ago:
I used to have to go in with a checkbook and write a check for Zero dollars and 37.5/100 at the layaway counter.
Bitches held on to the hotdog until I was done paying. It was always cold by that point.

- Comment on Wake up sheeple 3 weeks ago:
The only thing you’re missing is brain damage.
It makes no sense and is predicated on not caring about actual real information.
- Comment on Wake up sheeple 3 weeks ago:
Yes, because the area gets a no-fly zone and navy ships go to get the capsule, it makes it “easy” to fake because the government controls the situation. Yes, this ignores a lot of other independently verifiable data, because that doesn’t confirm biases. Yes, it ignores all the Soyuz landings over land. Yes, it ignores the facts that the Soviets and Russians do and did the same thing, as if a highly-planned re-entry might just happen in anyone’s rye field. Yes, it’s stupid. Yes, it’s on purpose.
- Comment on America 3 weeks ago:
Fear of change and hate of “The Other.” Town full of the most hate-filled Boomers I’ve ever seen.

So is this the tampon version of the sayings on Dove chocolate wrappers?
- Comment on America 4 weeks ago:
Either using both or mostly issuing 24h is a thing in the Eastern hemisphere, so Europe, Africa, and Asia. It’s not universally applied, but there’s lots of places that use it on things like telling you when a TV show will be on, for example.
Par example
- Comment on America 4 weeks ago:
Yeah, I’m also an American. Those are examples from personal experience.
When I was growing up the dipshit town where my family lived was thinking about installing a roundabout instead of the series of 4 lights in front of the Walmart. The level of genuine panic it caused was insane. Huge groups at city council meetings with signs worried about car insurance rates going up because of “all the accidents it will cause!” Needless to say, it didn’t happen. Meanwhile, roundabouts work just fine for the rest of Earth and I’ve only ever seen one accident in one, due to construction.
- Comment on America 4 weeks ago:
Large parts of the world use 24h time regularly. Only Americans, as far as I know, really struggle with 24h time, roundabouts, and bidets as concepts.

The waves of this comment collapsed into photons entering my eyes showing me a joke about superposition once I observed it.

The 90s version was “I’m straightedge except for weed and shrooms. Those are natural.”
^Don’t come at me, I know alcohol and tobacco and cocaine are naturally occurring also.^

I also use a custom domain. Basically, as long as you accept that the domain might be linked to your IRL name, it’s more of a privacy issue in that regard. The custom domain means you don’t ever have to stick with one company forever, also. My email address is portable to any hosting service.
Spammers and scammers work in databases of hundreds of thousands of records they buy. Anything that doesn’t immediately return a hit is chaff to be deleted. There’s no incentive to root through thousands of credential combos and see if your human brain can see a pattern to tweak, short of targeted attacks about you as a person. If the custom domain doesn’t stand out as a business with website worth sending ransomware, what’s the reason to be a target? No one will waste time on a custom domain just in hopes of getting someone’s 27 addresses just to send important dick pill meds spam.
I get zero spam after a year or so with a custom domain. My neutered gmail still gets flooded with spam.
- Comment on irony is pressing 4 weeks ago:
I used to live like a savage with everything tied to one email, and had a few regular spam shields. Damned fool small smooth brain idiot way of living!
I don’t know why I didn’t do a custom domain 10 years ago. The level of security buffering it offers is worth every penny alone. Someone gets aggressively spammy? Fine, I’ll delete the fucking email address, enjoy the bounceback, dicks. Every breach reinforces the idea that this is a good call, giving data leaks worthless garbage. It genuinely gives me a feeling of freedom.
