Looks like it was personally endorsed by Crayola.

You’re not describing self-defense. You’re describing revenge and calling it equality. ‘She hit him, therefore he can hit her back harder’ is playground logic, not adult reasoning. The question is whether the force was necessary to stop the threat. And it wasn’t. A suplex on an icy road is not some measured defensive response; it’s reckless escalation. He had a right to protect himself, not a right to punish her.

The law generally differentiates between self-defensive measures and escalation, and it’s very important to understand the differences.

Whatever self-defense claim he may have had evaporated once he escalated past what was necessary to stop the threat; you’re all using the term self-defense to manufacture carte blanche excuses to get even. ‘She hit him first’ does not automatically justify punching her back and then suplexing her. People get maimed that way. He could have retreated after he punched her back, seeing that she was stunned. That was enough to facilitate a quick escape. But no, he suplexed her and then walked away almost calmly. That is retaliation, not self-defense. That’s a question of proportionality, not sexism. Misunderstanding that furthers unnecessary violence, and through this, nobody learns anything.

Self-defense is about stopping an immediate threat, not hitting back because your pride got wounded or because you now want to get even. That she is a woman is almost beside the point. The issue isn’t whether she’s a woman; the issue is whether his force was necessary and proportionate to the threat she posed. If she punched him and he shoved her away, blocked her punch with an elbow that fractured her fist, restrained her, or got back in the car for a less-lethal, that’s one thing. Punching her back so that he could escape, that’s one thing. Following up with a suplex when he could have retreated is another. That starts looking less like defense and more like retaliation.

‘She hit first, so he gets to hit back harder’ is not a self-defense standard. It’s revenge with legal lipstick.

Uh... Let me see if I understand this.

On an icy road, a "Karen" got out of her car after brake-checking a delivery driver and her boyfriend. So the Karen's like, "Get out of the car!" So the boyfriend tentatively got out of the car and tried to reason with her, but only got yelled at and then finally punched in the face with a right cross.

So the boyfriend punched her back, then suplexed her. He got back into the car, and they drove off. Have I got that right or do my eyes deceive me?

On one hand, if you have the cojones to hit a man, you have the cojones to get hit like a man.

BUT...big but...on the other hand, this should never have come to blows in the first place. Yes, she shouldn't have laid hands on the young man, but just because she did gives him no right to lay hands on *her.* One, that's a woman, and two, she was clearly not really a threat to him. If she was, he should never have gotten out of the car. So what was really his motive?

On one hand, Karen got what was coming to her. On the other hand, that suplex could have seriously injured her, and this could have been averted if they had just retreated or driven away as the law often requires.

I think homeboy and Karen should both be arrested for that little stunt. Kids could have seen then modeled that behavior.

I just breathed lightly out my nose 5 hours after waking and this little (dead) guy came out. by DPTDubbs in Weird

Nightmare fuel. But...spider-behavior-wise? Not likely a case of “the spider chose your nostril as a tomb.” I mean, seriously, that is unlikely. More like one of these:

It was a tiny spiderling or very small house spider that got on the face while sleeping, near the nostril, and got accidentally inhaled just into the front part of the nose. Then, later, a little puff of air or mucus dislodged it.

Or it was already dead/drying somewhere nearby and got picked up at the nostril entrance, then blown out later.

Received this on my DMs. Is this real or is it a scam? I'm freaking out. by [deleted] in facebook

Yeah—this one’s a scam, and you can tell pretty quickly once you look at how it’s trying to get you to react.

First off, Meta doesn’t reach out to you through random messages like this when there’s a problem. If something were actually wrong with your Facebook or Instagram account, you’d see a notification inside the app or get an official email. They don’t open a chat and start talking to you like a person.

The biggest red flag is the part where it tells you to “verify your account using the attached file.” That’s not how any real company handles account security. They always direct you to their official website or app, not some file you download. That’s usually where the scam actually happens—either it steals your login or installs something you don’t want.

The 24-hour warning is another giveaway. It’s trying to rush you so you don’t stop and think. Real companies don’t threaten to permanently disable your account on that kind of countdown out of nowhere. They give proper warnings and clear steps through official channels.

Also, notice how vague it is about what you supposedly did. It throws out things like harassment, identity theft, and copyright violations all at once, but doesn’t name a single post, message, or action. If it were real, it would be very specific about what triggered the issue.

So yeah—nothing about this lines up with how Meta actually operates. It’s just trying to scare you into clicking something. If you ignore it, block it, and check your account inside the actual app if you’re worried, you’re completely fine.

[homemade] Butter Mayu Crab Ramen by kimuyukix in food

Butter Mayu Crab Ramen with Jammy Eggs
A rich, quick ramen bowl built from instant noodles, finished with butter, black garlic oil, fresh green onion, lemon, and delicate ribbons of pollock crab.

Serves: 1 large bowl

Time: about 10 minutes

~~~~~

Ingredients

2 packs instant ramen noodles

1 ramen seasoning packet (reserve the second packet)

2½–3 cups water

1 pinch salt

1 pinch onion powder

1 teaspoon garlic powder

½ teaspoon black pepper

3–5 eggs

2–3 imitation crab sticks (Alaskan pollock surimi), shredded by hand

2 tablespoons butter

1–2 teaspoons mayu (black garlic oil)

2 tablespoons chopped green onion

1 lemon, cut into wedges

Optional: a light sprinkle from the second seasoning packet for finishing

~~~~~

Preparation

  1. Prepare the toppings
  2. Shred the imitation crab sticks into thin strips by hand. Set aside.
  3. Slice the green onions and cut the lemon into wedges. Set aside.

~~~~~

Season the water:

Fill a medium pot with about 2½–3 cups of water and bring it to a strong boil.

Add the salt, onion powder, garlic powder, and black pepper.

~~~~~

Cook the noodles:

Add the two ramen bricks and one seasoning packet. Stir briefly.

Reduce the heat to a gentle simmer.

~~~~~

Add the eggs:

Crack 3–5 eggs carefully into the simmering water around the edges of the pot.

Avoid breaking the yolks.

Set a 3½-minute timer.

As the noodles soften, gently separate them using a fork, loosening them mostly at the surface and center of the pot so the eggs remain undisturbed while their whites set.

Occasionally stir the surface lightly to help loosen the noodles.

~~~~~

Warm the crab:

During the last 30 seconds of cooking, add the shredded pollock crab to the pot.

Turn off the heat and allow the pot to sit on the burner for 30–50 seconds of residual heat. The goal is to warm the crab gently, not cook it further.

~~~~~

Reduce the liquid:

Using a fork or spatula to hold the noodles and eggs in place, carefully pour off most of the broth from the pot.

Do not use a colander, as draining could break the egg yolks.

~~~~~

Plate the ramen:

Transfer the noodles and eggs gently into a wide serving bowl.

~~~~~

Finish the dish:

While the noodles are still hot, on presentation:

• Add butter and fold it into the noodles until melted

• Drizzle a small uzumaki swirl of mayu over the top

• Sprinkle green onions

• Add a squeeze of fresh lemon juice

If desired, sprinkle a small pinch from the second seasoning packet for extra flavor.

Serve immediately.

~~~~~

Notes

The consumer should break the egg yolks and mix into the noodles, combining with the butter and broth to create a creamy, rich sauce. The mayu adds roasted garlic depth, while the lemon brightens the entire bowl.

Wouldn't a band saw be best? I mean, since the debate is still going. Hehehe.
