There is a term for the opposite of “ambidextrous”. It’s “ambisinister”, and it means you’re equally bad with both hands. Sinister’s etymology is from Latin meaning “left”, hence ambisinister really means all your hands are left-handed

The "affluenza" case refers to Ethan Couch, a Texas teenager who, in 2013 at age 16, killed four people and injured several others in a drunk-driving crash. His defense argued that his wealthy upbringing caused "affluenza," a condition implying he couldn’t understand consequences due to privilege. A judge sentenced him to 10 years of probation instead of prison, sparking widespread outrage over perceived leniency and inequality in the justice system. Couch later violated probation, fled to Mexico with his mother in 2015, and was eventually jailed for nearly two years, released in 2018.

In February 2016, hackers stole $101 million from Bangladesh Bank’s account at the New York Fed by sending fake SWIFT transfer requests, nearly nabbing $1 billion total. The money hit accounts in the Philippines and Sri Lanka, with most of the Philippine haul vanishing into casinos, aided by lax security and suspected North Korean hackers. Only $18 million was recovered, exposing major flaws in global banking defenses.

We know penguins as adorable, but these creatures have depraved traits that even scientists are trying to hide because of how disturbing they are.
1. Penguins are necrophiliacs, that is, they have s€x with dead penguins. This act is specific to the Adelie penguins found in Antarctica.
2. When female emperor penguins have a miscarriage, they will scour their community for lost or abandoned chicks; when they can’t find any, they will kidnÆp another mother's chick.
3. The Adelie penguins form gangs and then go around committing despicable acts such as th£ft, murd£r, and gang råpê. They can even commit these acts against baby Adelie penguins, to achieve supremacy.
4. The Humboldt penguins mate in poop. That is, they have s!x in sh*t.
5. Adélie penguins need stones to build their nests, but if a penguin couple lacks stones, the female penguin will sneak off and have sëx with a male that has a surplus of stones. That's right: adélie penguins do sèx trafficking and pr*stitution.

🚨 The Harsh Truth Most Men Won’t Face 🚨
Most men today:
• Are clueless about global events, finance, or culture
• Can’t build real connections (networking or relationships)
• Operate with zero self-confidence
• Stay broke, blaming the system instead of improving
• Have no charisma, no presence, no game
• Mumble through conversations like background noise
• Give weak handshakes, avoid eye contact, and radiate insecurity
• Can’t even perform in the bedroom
Here’s the good news: The bar is LOW.
We’re living in an era where just a little effort puts you in the top 10%.
- Train your body → You’re ahead.
- Sharpen your mind → You’re ahead.
- Master discipline → You’re unstoppable.
The competition? Nonexistent.
The world isn’t "hard"—it’s waiting for those willing to dominate.
Donald Trump has imposed a 10% tariff on the uninhabited Heard and McDonald Islands. The population is 0. But there are huge populations of penguins there.
The most remote landmasses in the world are in the southern Indian Ocean and consist of two main islands, Heard Island and McDonald Island. They are external territories of Australia.

Imagination, Paginated
Today is International Children’s Book Day, marking the 1805 birthday of Hans Christian Andersen, whose beloved fairy tales include “The Little Mermaid,” “The Ugly Duckling,” “The Princess and the Pea,” and “Thumbelina.” Although children’s literature is relatively young itself, arising as a distinct genre in the 18th century, it’s making up for lost time.
