I considered it but:

1. I think its safer to leave attribution in general.
2. Is "the joke" the setup, the punchline, or both?

Since that person came up with the setup, i think an editor changing the punchline isnt necessarily making a new joke, they'd just be a third contributor.

Opinions vary though, sure. As a software dev, I dream of a world where everything is version controlled and no one's contributions are undocumented or underplayed.

Fair cop, I didn't check source I just saw it mentioned elsewhere. His company being valued at just over a billlion probably confused people.

I grant that there's a difference of degrees here, but him being "just" an unethical millionaire doesn't substantially change my views on the situation.

Someone in another thread mentioned polyamory which I find a personally interesting angle as well, since I practice relationship anarchy. This situation would just never happen to me because all my paramours know each other and know about the activies we do together. It makes me suspicious of these stories because while I also enjoy laughing at a rich guy getting caught, I don't like that it culturally reinforces this idea of monogamy as a core value and that breaking the trust of such monogamy should have public consequences.

Obviously the last thing I want is society-wide condemnation of the wrong aspect of this situation. It isnt the having a side-piece that's the problem, it's the lying to your primary partner (and everyone else) that actually creates the trouble.

Thanks to THC destroying my ability to REM, I have become Jet Li's the One.

Their reaction is what set it all off too. Even the singer immediately speculates that they're having an affair because of how they acted. So yeah, even if he wasn't a billionaire, somebody probably would have doxxed him anyway because there are tons of people that like drama and know they can make money off it. That he is a billionaire and doing something deeply unethical is what makes the story go viral all over social media. Lots and lots of people there want to make money and clout by exploiting any avenue for drama and engagement.

Perhaps the problems this exposes are not just our grim and omnipresent surveillance apparatus, but the attached system of gig-economy content creators all racing to the lowest common denominator for scraps of engagement and ad revenue? We've created a society of unempathetic monsters.

There's a few actual versions of the pin pulling games now. I liked this one for Android called "How to Loot", pretty fun little time waster.

Too easy to make an exploitable template, the author clearly is doing it for the memes!

When the poles of your political axis are "human rights" <---> "genocide and slavery" then centrists can go stuff themselves. Theres no compromise between freedom and slavery, life and death. I will not meet you on the middle fields of "just against the bad ones."

Ah, one of my favorite genres!

Nah bro just trust me. One more revolutionary vanguard party bro, then we'll allow the workers to have self-determination. Just give us absolute power for a little while, we're totally gonna give it back bro!

Crisps? Chips.

Fries? Chips.

Chips? Chips.

Hashbrowns? Chips

Latkes? Chips.

Amazing! I'd wear these even having no idea which band is being promoted!
