“Enriched”
“58% of men convicted in Sweden of rape & attempted rape over the past 5 years were born abroad, according to data from Swedish media outlet @SVT. In cases of rape where the victim was randomly attacked, the figure rises to 85%.”
I’ll bet that becomes near 100% when you count offspring of immigrants.

“Giant robot Pikachu rampage.”
Perm any two of four for both band name and album title.
“The Sounds of His Coming and other album covers.”
Gotta say, unlike most of these internet “worst ever” lists, those genuinely are bloody awful.
“Something error happen.”
It could be worse. Spare a thought for her brother Dick.
Growing up, we had some family friends by the name of Diaper. Oh, the fun they had when they visited America.

Morning, all.
Douglas Murray speaking at a Norwegian conference a few days ago.
Like many of Mr Murray’s other speeches, this is worth the time. It’s also worth noting just how often Mr Murray, a careful thinker by any measure, is denounced by the left as beneath debate, as someone whose questions need not be addressed.

It's made by Acer. There's a non-zero chance it will randomly fold in half and crush you to death.

I'm trying to get into the mind of someone who "needs feminism because 90% of CEOs are men". Is she an aspiring CEO who believes there is an unbreakable cabal of male CEOs who just can't stand an uppity broad crashing their party? I guess these types have never actually hung around executives and therefore don't understand that most of them are the biggest feminist pushovers one could imagine.

She might, California (of course) apparently does.
Once again I seem to recall a name an Italian dude came up with for a scheme where government dictated how business ran.

Well, except for that whole part about pregnancy resulting in two (or more) people, and the sex of neither the party of the first part nor second part not changing, I guess it does, but wait ! That's not all !

“California could soon become the first state in the nation to require public companies based within the state to have at least one woman on their boards.”
“Good afternoon, I'm from the California Inspectorate of Tokenism. It would appear that none of you is a woman. This is a grave offense, you know.”
“Sure, we know. That's why we have women on the board.”
“Well, gentlemen, I don't see any...”
“Sexist pig! Gentlemen! We're all women. Ain't we, boys? Er, girls?”
[Murmurs of, “Oh, sure,” “You bet,” “I'm wunna them les-beens,” etc.]
“I'm not sure that...”
“Get outta here, ya hater!”
I don't think they've thought this through.
