The article says Petro doesnt deny knowing her, or even that they wete intimate together, the allegation he denied was exchanging government contracts for sex. His laywer mentioned sharing non consensual intimate videos. Sounds real to me.

but also the video (whivh i couldnt find) describes a short clip where they kiss and you can see partial faces

    Im in my 30s, i used a phonebooth once. I was 16 and had run away from home, i made it 3 hours down the train line and called someone in the hope they'd come get me, but they didnt answer because it was 2am. I also sent a text to my girlfriend (it was very serious)

    sigh, almost everyone in that story is dead now

    I demand perfection, pluck out your eyes

    If people routinely break into construction sites, it puts their insurance, security, etc costs up significantly. In the UK factory's that made parts for drones ended up shutting down over rising insurance costs.

    Trump administration attacks Australia's 'opt-out' algorithm law in rare intervention

    In an extremely uncommon move, the US government has publicly criticised an Australian government policy proposal.

    It wants US social media companies excluded from digital duty of care laws, which would give Australians the option to opt out of algorithmic feeds.

    Prime Minister Anthony Albanese is in New York promoting Australian tech policies at the United Nations.

    !asklemmy@lemmy.ml - ARE YOU A TANKIE? - informal poll results ~ 2025

    😱

    This process was undertaken to determine if so-called "tankies" are conspiring to make you (yes, you) have a bad time on the internet!

    vague or informal answers were interpreted by the central authority (me). Only top level comments were counted. I did not provide further instructions or clarifications.

    spoilerA ridiculous question. “Tankie” isn’t a term anyone self-identifies with, it’s mostly a term used by liberals to hurl at anyone to the left of them or anyone who agrees with western foreign policy. The survey results will be as meaningless as the term “tankie” itself.

    ^ wish I'd remembered to include that in the new "poll", there was a lot of confusion in the comments!

    I forgot to set a reminder so I'm a little late getting to this, but here we are again:

    Are you a "tankie"?

    Respond "yes" or "no", I'll collate results later

    I'll likely check back in a week, my old pc died so itll take a little bit of time to prettify the results and write a report

    Ciao, and of course, imperialism must be destroyed.
