Kind of misleading headline. She went out of her way to explain to the interviewer that it had nothing to do with marijuana and she was going to treat it as though he had asked who would be fun to be around, like who she would get a pedicure with or something like that.

To recap - a podcast host asks her who she would smoke a blunt with, she pointedly reframes the question, The Hill picks it up and runs a headline implying that she wants to smoke a blunt with Dwayne Johnson anyways.

The headline made me think this was something shady, but it’s actually pretty cool. A teeny-tiny little incorporated community out in the wilderness with a decades-long tradition of voting at midnight, so they can be the first in the nation to announce their results.

Renewed Jihad makes no sense...? (lemmy.world)

This event randomly popped up while I was playing. My character is the Sunni Caliph. I have a custom faith with the Pacifism tenet; I thought I needed Struggle and Submission to initiate Great Holy Wars at all. Also, why would I need to “retake” the core regions when my faith already controls all five holy sites? And why...

CK3 Question - Player Heir has wrong government type

EDIT: Please disregard. I just learned that inheriting a higher-tier title changes your government type to match that title’s government type. Earlier on in the game, my player heir had an equal-tier title when she inherited mine and it caused my government type to switch from Tribal to Feudal. I was falsely worried that the...

I knew I couldn't defend against the Mongols in open warfare... (lemmy.world)

…so I arranged a marriage between my daughter and the Khagan’s heir. Then all I had to do was murder my son-in-law, wait for the elderly Khagan to die, and boom. The Mongol emperor is now my 6-year-old grandchild and ward. I think I’m safe from Mongol aggression for the time being....

This isn’t a “news story from a credible source,” this is a blog post about a Twitter thread and it offers absolutely no context or insight.

What is the protest about? Why is the U.S. Secret Service involved?

The LAPD put out a statement saying they’re aware of people exercising their first amendment rights by protesting, and that they’ll be on site to ensure public safety. That seems pretty damn reasonable to me. I don’t trust the police either, but if you’re going to immediately draw a connection between this event and horrific police brutality, please give me something more substantial than “they worded a tweet awkwardly.”

“Oniony headlines” lose their impact when they’re placed at the top of inflammatory fluff pieces.
