Back somersault. Pry off the alligator's jaw. Use it as a boomerang to take out the snake. When he falls out the tree the lion will go straight for the easier meal.
Screenshot of a scene from Venture Bros, transcript: Dean: No worries Brock. I'll walk you through the written portion. Question one. You're in Prague. A sniper's in the window above you. There's an alligator behind you and a grizzly bear in front of you. What do you do? Do you- Brock: Back somersault. Pry off the alligator's jaw. Use it as a boomerang to take out the sniper. When he falls out the window the grizzly will go straight for the easier meal.

What about the lesson that right wing reactionaries have and will always criticize protests as violent literally no matter what?

A federal judge is raising alarms that the Trump administration deported a two-year-old U.S. citizen to Honduras with “no meaningful process,” even as the child’s father was frantically petitioning the courts to keep her in the country.

The way Bluesky truncates threads can lead to some strange results
Two skeets, the top one is about remaking Dragon Age 2, then there's a "View full thread" button followed by a skeet by the same poster starting "Anyway, there are two functional types of food delivery in Gotham:"

Dr Seuss political cartoon from World War 2 showing Nazi Germany as a bird having pecked down trees with the names of various European countries, and currently pecking through the trunk of "England", with a complacent/smug bird in an Uncle Sam hat sitting on an undisturbed tree saying, "Ho hum! When he's finished pecking down that last tree he'll quite likely be tired."

Screenshot of a quote: " First Thoughts are the everyday thoughts. Everyone has those. Second Thoughts are the thoughts you think about the way you think. People who enjoy thinking have those. Third Thoughts are thoughts that watch the world and think all by themselves. They’re rare, and often troublesome. Listening to them is part of witchcraft. Terry Pratchett, A Hat Full of Sky "

Musk tweet griping about "Not enough talent [meaning billionaire industrialists] in manufacturing & heavy industries." Reply says: "Interesting point, but an example might make it clearer. Can you think of a prominent person who's currently wasting his talents in software when he could be working on manufacturing and heavy industries?"

It's not just a pay thing either
https://www.fastcompany.com/3062989/50-reasons-why-everyone-should-want-more-walkable-streets
Excerpt from the linked article: "Someone with a one-hour commute in a car needs to earn 40% more to be as happy as someone with a short walk to work. On the other hand, researchers found that if someone shifts from a long commute to a walk, their happiness increases as much as if they’d fallen in love"

This is why the existence of billionaires is inherently corrosive to democracy. Anand Giridharadas goes into this a lot, how billionaires hijacking efforts to improve the public good are always self-serving.
