I guess this Raygun issue bothers some people more because of the unfairness to other potential Australian participants. I know that's certainly the case for me but I think the Algerian boxer controversy may have a larger fallout in the long term because she's now suing high-profile people like Elon Musk and JK Rowling for cyberbullying. And if it escalates perhaps it'll cause more people to redefine what being female means.
At least nobody got kidnapped and held hostage, I guess.

This is so true.  Although it mostly applies to domestic cats who live in comfortable environments.

Power la. The two biggest memes of the Olympics joined forces.
I think many of you might have seen this vid when it went viral a looong time ago (in the late 2000s?). Worth a rewatch anyway. It's a Japanese prank show featuring three siblings in a zombie apocalypse.

LOL the little boy is so brave but I really lost it when he kept blaming the host for not helping.

Hahahah that was the funniest part for me too. The look of fear, anger and frustration on the boy's face is classic.

This brought back memories I didn't even know I had. Must have watched this video before the days of YouTube.
