L.A. FIRES: BLACK RESCUERS BRANDED LOOTERS

As California burns, the flames of racism have also been reignited. News coverage of looting going on in abandoned homes was accompanied by video of Black people going in and out of houses - immensely misleading, as a closer look reveals they were helping rescue items from the fire…

"designed as #holistic framework w #student oppor choose what he's interested in study'g at standard/higher levels. IB exam is diff for each indiv based on #subject #combination, thus making tot scores out of 45 a poor point of reference.. It's not wrong to report facts, but present'g #statistics w/o proper context can be #misleading. Let’s not make #education abt numbers but abt people"

Heads up.
Meetup's enshittification continues unabated.
For a while, a popup came up when you looked at who would be present at a meeting. You could easily dismiss it by click the "X" button on it.
That popup has been redesigned with an eye towards confusion. You need to click the link named "Continue with free plan" to get rid of it. Given the "Try it for free" button at the bottom, I find this confusing. I'm 100% that the "try it for free" is an offer to give it to you for free for a limited time and then have you pay a subscription. At first, I thought the link at the top was the same offer.

Avoid the "carry-on" #suitcase by this brand #Kadi.
The item's name is "Carry-on Leisure Suitcase 55.5cm in Charcoal"
However its actual dimension is 35.5 x 25.5 x 55.5cm. Its depth is 2.5cm thinker than international flight limit of 23cm.
I will need to make a trip tomorrow to return it and get a refund! What a waste of everyone's time! Unbelievable! 
My favourite #debunking of the "government paid $EXCESSIVE for $THING" kind of story was by Jerry #Pournelle. It's currently offline, and archive.org is still recovering, so I can't link it. Actual numbers below are made up because I don't remember the exact figures, but the gist is correct.
It was the "#Pentagon paid $17,000 for a #toilet seat" one. What actually happened was that the Pentagon needed to procure more toilet seats for the B-52 bomber - the planes were (and still are!) old and stuff wears out or gets damaged. There was no remaining stock of parts.
The problem was that the #manufacturer had long ago junked the tooling used to make the parts (they were metal, requiring tool & die etc). Making that tooling is quite expensive - it's difficult, skilled work. Other costs involved in getting a #manufacturing line set up are also expensive. And they couldn't justify buying and storing tons of extra toilet seats.
So what you get is a high fixed #cost to rebuild a line, divided by a relatively small number of finished articles, giving an apparently absurd price per unit. Say, a million dollars to make 60 replacement toilet seats to original spec.
And that gives... $16,667 per seat. And a great, totally #misleading #headline.

In any other democratic country, the winner receiving less than 50% of the votes would result in a 2nd election between the two leading candidates.
It is very misleading to uphold the USA as an example of a democratic country.

#Transgender #wrestler #MackBeggs plans to take #legal #action against #misleading #Texas #Republican #ads.
The #Republican #attackads falsely depict Beggs as a #trans #boy #wrestling #girls. In reality, Beggs is a #trans #man (assigned female at birth) who wished to compete against other #boys. However, he was compelled by the #Texas #School #Sports #regulator (#UIL) to wrestle #girls due to the #female #sex recorded on his #birthcertificate at that time.
