Ari clearly has the ick.

I can't get over Ari's hand She's posing like this is an annoying fan that wants a quick selfie, not the guy she fricked and destroyed two marriages to have.

The downward spiral keeps going, yet another CT sub has fallen. 😭 Cumboys and cumgirls are the most persecuted people on reddit. Nick leaves, and now reddit kicks us off again. Dark times.

Many NSFW subs recently got banned for being "unmoderated" actually like /r/drugs. reddit sucks butt.

/r/redscarepod is next in line for the rope, betting on it.

Edit: NVM it's back up

DBS Group Holdings plans to cut about 4,000 of its contract and temporary staff workforce over the next three years as artificial intelligence increasingly takes on roles carried out by human beings.

South-east Asia's largest lender has approximately 8,000 to 9,000 of such staff, according to chief executive officer Piyush Gupta replying to a query from Bloomberg News. He confirmed a Press Trust of India news agency report which said the bank will trim its workforce following further adoption of AI across its business.

Permanent staff will not be affected, the outgoing CEO said. DBS : D05 -0.58%has around 41,000 staff and Tan Su Shan, currently deputy CEO, will succeed Gupta on Mar 28.

A DBS spokesperson said: "The reduction in workforce will come from natural attrition as temp and contract roles roll off over the next few years."

Global banks will cut as many as 200,000 jobs in the next three to five years as artificial intelligence encroaches on tasks currently carried out by human workers, said a Bloomberg Intelligence report last month.

Chief information and technology officers surveyed for BI indicated that on average they expect a net 3 per cent of their workforce to be cut, according to the report.

Still, many firms have stressed that the shift will result in roles being changed by technology, rather than replaced altogether. Teresa Heitsenrether, who oversees JPMorgan Chase's AI efforts, said in November that the bank's adoption of generative AI was so far augmenting jobs.

In its latest results announcement, DBS said net profit for the fourth quarter rose 11 per cent from a year ago.

Net profit for the three months ended Dec 31, 2024, was S$2.52 billion, compared with S$2.27 billion previously, and was slightly short of expectations.

Excluding one-off items – a S$100 million corporate social responsibility commitment to DBS Foundation and other charitable causes – Q4 net profit would have been up 10 per cent at S$2.62 billion.

Following the results, analysts raised target prices and dividend estimates on DBS, predicting higher valuation ahead.

Maybank said DBS was giving significant visibility on capital returns. While earnings could grow at just 1 per cent compound annual growth rate between FY2025 and FY2027, dividends could expand at 7 per cent, delivering yields higher than 6.5 per cent, it said.

It upgraded its estimate for dividend per share (DPS) by 14 to 22 per cent between FY2025 and FY2027.

RHB added that one key highlight was DBS' management providing clarity on the quantum of excess capital of S$8 billion, and reaffirming its commitment to return this to shareholders over the next three years.

That will start with a capital return dividend of S$0.15 per share per quarter for FY2025 that DBS announced on Monday.

That is over and above its earlier share buyback programme and a S$0.24 increase in ordinary DPS this year, RHB noted. After factoring in the capital return dividend, RHB's estimate for its FY2025 DPS is S$3.06, from S$2.46. BLOOMBERG

EDIT: PLEASE stop telling me I'm in danger, I can't do much about it at this point and I have severe panic disorder and I appreciate the concern and warnings but I am freaking out lol

I got a little (very) carried away with the Diatomaceous Earth yesterday trying to hastily treat my mom's flea problem. I only followed word-of-mouth directions from a friend, didn't look up anything or read the packaging. It's not even the food grade version.

How do I get this off the floors without just kicking it all up into the air? When I poured it everywhere yesterday, my asthmatic mom had trouble breathing afterwards. I just attempted to carefully sweep the kitchen, and walked away feeling like I just snorted rails of straight tree pollen. I have guests coming over tomorrow. What should I do?

P.S. Please don't be mean, I know I'm stupid and I've learned my lesson!

Edit: Update: Thanks for all the helpful advice!! I am so lucky to have done this in a house that has tile throughout instead of any installed carpeting. The furniture I coated with the D-Earth ended up being furniture my mom planned on getting rid of/replacing anyways, except for her leather sofa. The only thing we haven't been able to take care of with wet mopping and a wet rag is my bedroom rug, which gives me an excuse to go ahead and buy this other one I've had my eye on :) I'm so thankful that I didn't need to go rent any equipment to fix this, but thank you to all who suggested the idea!

There's Food Grade and there's Pool Grade. Pool Grade Diatomaceous Earth is extremely dangerous.

There is no shame in drawing for fun, but I can't help but feel a bit embarrassed for not progressing as fast as I would have liked. I should be doing more gesture drawings and practice anatomy, but by the time I am "ready" to draw it is already quite late in the day. I am already 15 min over time if I want to get 8 hours of sleep before work tomorrow.

Right, there's nothing productive to be had in terms of discussion here, and I don't think you guys even care at this point either to try.

Call it whatever stupid buzzword you want - Woke, DEI, PC, SJW, or whatever dumb term people come up with next week. I don't care. The term means, always has meant, and always WILL mean "Not being an butthole to someone because they're different to you."

Don't pretend that the old stories were fine just having black or gay people - Because buttholes complained about that then, just like you are complaining about it now. The reality is, people who are not the same skin colour, sexual orientation, gender, lifestyle, size, physical ability, etc etc, than you, Exist. They always have, and always will.

Culture including people with different characteristics to you IS NOT A SLIGHT. They are not doing it to offend you, or to "gaslamp you" or whatever nonsense the Anti Woke Brigade has come up with this week. These characters are being created so that the real human beings who have those differences, have someone to look at and go "Hey this guy's like me!" That's it. That's the whole thing. It's just about making everybody feel welcome.

If you want to complain about this, I encourage you to send us a modmail. But this thread is locked, and you know darn well why.

Dumbass hicks.

I'm a petty beefy guy. Have been for most of my adult life. I'm changing my eating and hitting the gym again to get healthy, but I don't think I'll ever be super thin again.

There seem to be a decent amount of men who find plus size women sexy, which I think is fantastic. But as a man, I can't say that my experience has been proportional or at all similar. Outside of fetish communities, I've not encountered a woman who was sincerely attracted to someone with my body type, and thats... hard.

I don't want to be a fetish. I don't want to be in a feeder-type relationship. I want to be healthy, but I also accept that healthiness for me might still be a hefty body type. The BHM communities I've found on reddit are very sexually oriented. I'm not here to kink shame anyone, but that's just not me.

I'm a man with a deep capacity for love and connection. I'm very connected to my feelings and really would like to find a meaningful relationship based on mutual interest, attraction, and compatible personalities.

I just don't know where to find women who would be interested in dating a guy like me. The apps are out. So are the popular dating sites. I just feel like modern dating isn't made for the plus sized man.

Does anyone have some good advice for me? I'm a 46 year old man, who at this point, is kind of at a loss.
