Yes I didn't really think the end of that sentence through. I don't know, something in the middle then.
You get all these opinions off of NFTmarkt you fucking WHAMMER?

Conor Woulfe and Peter Rosza say they each paid $3.99 (£2.94) for the comedy Yesterday, only to discover the actress had been removed from the final cut.
They are seeking $5m in compensation on behalf of all affected viewers.
Make it ten million.
In fairness, I watched "The Happening" the other day and I felt like they owed me at least 20 million.
Hopefully they win their case, the entire TV/film industry will have to shut down and the music hall will once again rule supreme (but no understudies, obvs).
What solid business model.
But Thanush believes there’s another way to help fill empty supermarket shelves.
He thinks refugees and asylum seekers should be freed for detention and allowed to chip in to ease pressure on supply chains brought on by the Omicron wave.
“We would like to contribute to this country and pay taxes,” he told SBS News.
“Those of us who’ve been freed on bridging visas only have six-month visas. We need a permanent solution."https://www.sbs.com.au/news/the-asyl...8-f6b0f96ff182Thanush was detained on Manus Island for six years after fleeing Sri Lanka in 2013.
He was transferred to Melbourne’s Mantra Hotel in 2019 under the Medevac legislation before he was moved to Park Hotel in 2020 where he was later freed and granted a bridging visa.
Aside from operating a forklift, Thanush has also worked in a pizza shop, as a cleaner and currently interns at the Asylum Seeker Resource Centre.
He’s wasted no time in obtaining his forklift licence, first aid certificate, white card certification, learner driver licence and has become qualified to provide disability support as a carer.
“It is very difficult to rebuild our lives with a temporary visa,” he said.
“I have faced lots of problems in the community because we have been in detention for the last eight years.
“We can't get any loan or credit from the bank and it’s difficult to find somewhere to rent as we have no financial history.”

Of course, capitalism needs slave labour to be profitable and function adequately.

Thought the geezer had make up on in the photo at first
I always thought these sort of things were a right grift [best of the best and all that airport shite] but on it's face this one really takes the piss. Developer builds house in what appears to be an area prone to flooding [there's a stream higher than the house in the picture ffs] exploiting some sort of planning loophole to do so. Presumably can't sell it due to one of the above factors, so sells it to a 'charity auction organiser' who promptly flips it for monies via a charity auction, and some poor chump gets saddled with a potentially uninhabitable, unsalable 'asset' which probably costs a fortune to run/insure/pay council tax on. Gutting.
My neighbourhood is gonna be a bit mental tomorrow being Australia day and all.
Someone even gave the road a fresh coat of paint overnight.
Is that an aboriginie flag in protest or something?
Invasion Day protest on Australia Day. It feels like after such a massive BLM turnout last time that this one will also be well attended with argy bargy with the Police included.

You fucking what?John Lennon's eldest son Julian is selling several pieces of music history from his personal collection.
However, he will keep the physical items as each piece of memorabilia will be sold as a non-fungible token (NFT).
I'm going to sell my house next week, as an NFT.
I'm going to sell Yev's house this week as an NFT.
I'm going to buy Yev's house. I've always wanted a hot tub.
*a picture of a hot tub
The PICTURE of the hot tub is a separate NFT.
I also have a nice picture of Ben Nevis, which too is for sale. Well, the NFT of it obvs.
Have people legitimately made money (actual cash) out of this?
Well the ones selling the NFT first time are definitely. Not sure how much longevity there is in the re-sale market, because there are a finite amount of idiots with disposable cash.
I feel like listing everything I have as an NFT. Surely some nutter will pay for something. Free money.
Is the market regulated in any way shape or form? I'm assuming not because it's all so lol.
You have to pay to "mint" an NFT though so you'd probably end up down overall.
I own an nft but unlike Baz, I didn't actually pay any money for it.

It is not, which the crypto lads will tell you is a great positive.

Does Treason still carry the death sentence?
Nope. I could steal every Crypto you own and there's nothing you could do about it (legally).
Worse, you have to babysit Prince Andrew for a month.Does Treason still carry the death sentence?
Pay who?
Some platform that enables you to mint an NFT. I don't know that much about it.
Buy mine and pay me: https://www.voice.com/creation/100000001049391
I'm a twit
There's more dignity in selling ass/tootbrushes at a street corner.
Which did you make the biggest loss on?
I'm not a big enough saddo to follow cricket, but is this really such a wacky explanation for recruitment trends? Even if he's wrong it's not like he blamed it on innate laziness or skull shape is it.
Preferences do not exist. Any difference on anything is due to structural discrimination.
Given there are, what, 12 countries in the World that give a shit about cricket, it seems like a reasonable point to make.
South Asians famously aren't much interested what with just having 40% of the world's test nations.
Take it from me, what he said is utter bollocks. The later clarification is more like it.
I'm not sure how under-represented black kids are in cricket (black people are only 3% of the population, and there are a solid handful of black pro cricketers though not as many as there used to be). South Asians are very under-represented in pro cricket compared to their pop numbers and numbers playing recreationally.

So, he said that South Asians rather go to school than play cricket, right? And then that was seen as racist? So, to be less racist, they should push minorities into sports instead of school? That must be a first.
It wasn't seen as racist, it was seen as bollocks.
The idea that professional sports should match the 'diversity' of the population at large is madness to me. Someone should suggest that to the NFL/NBA.
Maybe I misread this part:
and this part:Rafiq, who in November told the DCMS select committee that English cricket was "institutionally racist", said he accepted O'Farrell's apology "without a doubt", adding: "If someone apologises we have to forgive and we have to try and work together."
A parliamentary report earlier this month recommended the government should limit public funding for cricket unless there was "continuous, demonstrable progress" on eradicating "deep-seated racism".
Yeah, he might be barking up the wrong tree, but from the reaction you would think he was doing a bad racism. What are the reasons for crap rates of Asian professionalism that just happen to be replicated across every other sport, all of which are more than happy to give every other race under the sun a go?
Lack of role models.
They're all playing badminton and table tennis.
And esports.

Not surprised in the slightest but it's another case of, "Man, I wish these allegations were collated together whilst he was alive."
