Nothing to see here, just girls being girls

A 6' tall, bearded trans basketballer arrogantly slams a young girl to the ground.... she collapses in agony. RILEY GAINES hits back: We used to call this domestic abuse - so why are we now calling it 'sport'?

Holy crap, I guess this is how job interviews with Gen Z go now?!? If I were the interviewer, I would have hit "disconnect" in the first 5 seconds. I mean, they seem to believe that interviewees run interviews. I would love to see a longer clip.  :rofl:

I would love for it to just be a sketch, but these days it's likely that it's all too real.

They could be trolling.  However, if real, I imagine there is one manager who is about to call his HR rep and chew them out about this candidate wasting their time.

That video may be trolling, but the concept isn't. I know hiring managers who have, over the past couple of years, had very similar experiences with potential candidates.

It looks like the FBI is using Google Gemini to come up with an image depicting the primary demographic involved in organized retail theft rings.

Not just the FBI
In ads for security items/services and whatnot whenever they have an image of a burglar/thief in the ad have you ever seen the burglar/thief be anything other than a white male even once? 

I know, someone is probably right now searching for one from 1905  :rofl:

Similar to The Boys show on Amazon.  The show is about superheroes, but every criminal in the movie is a middle aged white guy.  I was expecting that to be part of the story (blackmailing people to act as criminals their heroes can "stop"), but that never materialized.
