Wild how, once I left Twitter, they stopped trying to do this about my every move.

collar gate is the latest instance of a trumped-up non-issue blossoming into a large-scale psychosis event – and possibly the dumbest. it's also the modern internet doing exactly what it was engineered to do

To be honest, I wouldn’t be mentioning this if not for the fact that it’s a microcosm of how online platforms work today: Somebody makes an accusation based on evidence that’s spurious at best, big names with something to gain (viewership or the downfall of a perceived enemy) uncritically boost it, internet sleuths obsessively piece together supporting evidence by amassing context-free clips and ignoring everything that doesn’t match their intended conclusion, and all of the aforementioned parties spread performatively apoplectic videos across Reddit, YouTube, TikTok, Twitter, and wherever else they can sucker in uninitiated normies.

Some version of this happens every week – every day, on a smaller scale – without fail. It accomplishes nothing aside from giving the disaffected masses a brief glimmer of what feels like purpose, but is actually a bloodsucking waste of their precious time on this dying planet. And of course, it provides platforms with sweet, sweet engagement numbers. As a result, platforms will probably never intervene to disrupt this corrosive dynamic, which has broken the general public’s ability to perceive anything resembling objective reality, even as society collapses around them and people like Piker attempt to identify the real reasons why (hint: they don't involve dog collars).

The internet has been like this at least since the Depp v. Heard trial, which wannabe sleuths similarly feasted on in 2022 while getting pretty much every important detail completely wrong. At least back then they were obsessing over something of consequence. Now they’ve taught viewers to regard every trumped-up non-issue they can surface with similar gravity.

Picture of a person with their cat. They have their face painted black and white in the same pattern as the cat. Reminds me of that guy from the band Gotye

Observe a estupidez e desprezo com que o Secretário Municipal de Educação do Rio de Janeiro se dirige a uma professora que apenas fez uma reivindicação justa: publicação dos nomes dos profissionais aprovados no estágio probatório.

A luta dos professores contra a precarização é diária e incessante.

For gamers out there, leaks like this means nothing without context.

It doesn't prove the in-game model is the same.
It could just be the LOD/low-res model from an aerial scene or main menu, a reference for mappers, a test model, or something completely different.

The entire Pokémon Legends Z-A map is just ONE single model. That explains why the game has flat buildings everywhere.

"No more secrets" has been a catchphrase for the team. We want to give players the chance to see all the secrets they heard about but never experienced.

We included menu options that let you skip straight to hidden character fights, buried mini-games, and secret developer menus.
