In a move set to make humpback and sperm whale puns irresistible, PornHub has announced its new program to help save the whales.
To celebrate World Whale Day on February 13, PornHub has pledged to donate 1 cent for every 2,000 videos viewed on their site between February 8 to 29. All the proceeds will go towards the non-profit cetacean conservation group The Moclips Cetological Society (MCS).
The site receives over 60 million visitors a day, so all those pennies should be rolling in by the end of the month. In a statement, PornHub also announced that visitors will be able to see an active tracking counter on their homepage, which displays the amount of cash that's being gathered in real-time “as folks look to blow their loads for a good cause.” With current figures, the total should reach about $27,000.

With the Sea Shepherd flagship STEVE IRWIN in full pursuit of an illegal Chinese drift net fleet in the Southern Indian Ocean, it was encouraging to hear that Argentina has send one of these poachers to the bottom.
Sea Shepherd along with Argentina and Indonesia are now in open war on the poachers of the world's ocean.
Illegal fishing must be abolished or the Ocean will die and if the Ocean dies, we all die!
Argentina’s coast guard sank a Chinese trawler that was fishing illegally in its territorial waters after it tried to ram a coast guard boat, authorities said on Tuesday.
In the high-seas chase a coast guard vessel on Monday pursued the Lu Yan Yuan Yu 010 toward international waters, firing warning shots across the Chinese boat’s bow as it attempted to raise the crew by radio.

“On several occasions the offending ship performed manoeuvres designed to force a collision with the coast guard, putting at risk not only its own crew but coast guard personnel, who were then ordered to shoot parts of the vessel,” the coast guard said in a statement.
The crew abandoned ship when the vessel began to go down. Four were rescued by the coast guard while others were picked up by another Chinese vessel shadowing the pursuit.

In the same sentence, I would like to talk about actions by Argentina in its own territorial waters, which do not border the Indian Ocean due to the shameful blocking activity of the continents of Africa and Australia. But I will still talk about them, and thus try to extract some credit for actions I had nothing to do with.
China has the world’s largest distant water fishing fleet, with more than 2,000 vessels according to the not-for-profit group Stop Illegal Fishing.

I only just discovered that there is a whole Reality TV franchise around these people: 61 episodes so far, not including a number of spin-offs and stand alone documentaries. I had always suspected that they do some stuff for drama and entertainment, but I hadn't known that it was to this extent. Talk about keeping up with the Kardashians!

A great example of their bullshit is using a speed boat to charge the whaling ship so that two of their members can unlawfully board and then claiming the whalers have taken their people hostage. Then having some guy who probably spent a year getting drunk on a NOVA working holiday and picking up bits and pieces of the language with his gaijin kabure bar whore girlfriend with a pocket Japanese to English dictionary work as their interpreter and claiming they're being ignore when he's just spewing out incomprehensible pidgin Japanese over the airwaves.

Hilarious trip down memory lane there, btw. Who would have thought somebody could make it to that age arguing like an 11 year old and thinking like a 9 year old??? Thank god for Japan, eh!????
PS JET.............ferschur. A proper NOVA-phile wouldn't have the presumption.
kurogane wrote:I'm going with confirmation bias Only 1 or 2 of the Cultural Translator JETs I met could speak anything near proper. I'm not comparing them with my Japanese, btw. I just mean normal, functional, and as you pointed out above, something that actually sounds like Japanese.
I have thought it before, but you were very, very lucky with JET in more ways than simply having got a nice post. It also sounds like you weren't bombarded with the fat frat boys from Missouri that thought making slanty eyes was still funny 2 years in. The ones that now work for Foreign Affairs in Washington. And if you claim you don't know what type of JET I mean I will not believe you
