He has gone from the kids being boring, every being boring, taking them to the park being boring. Never coming in family holidays as they were boring to currently bring on a £10,000 skiing holiday with the kids and his mistress / girlfriend. She has no kids, 10 years younger etc.

I know it's great the kids get to go but what a transformation! From a man who had never picked them up from school or attended parents evening, he can now confidently take 3 kids to another country skiing. All range of abilities and ages.

Just miffed I didn't get this husband and I got the one who couldn't even do a family walk as it was also 'boring'.

How long does the Disney Dad effect last? Or is this what he could have always been and I accepted the minimum?

So the real story will be that he's gone from a depressing life and depressing wife to someone who makes him feel happy and alive and now finds the motivation to look after himself and his family. But let's see how mumsnet interprets the situation.

Yeah, or gets her sufficiently locked in through a shared mortgage or similar that she can't easily shed him.

>pretending to be a good partner until it's difficult for them to leave and then switching it off

Apparently he's now "in a better place" to spend time with them. It's a shame mums just have to parent from the start, isn't it - we can't wait to "be in the right place" when our oldest child is 9 and a lot easier to look after. These men make me sick. I am just hoping the children can see through it.

Currently dealing with a similar situation @ThisQuickPlumFinch so I sympathise. It won't last forever, and your kids will probably see it for what it really is at the same time as enjoying the adventure. Mine do.

>oh plz oh plz start hating your father so I can feel better about myself

To balance some of the man-bashing on this thread, I'm a woman who was married to a woman, who also did nothing around the house or by way of childcare in our marriage. After she had an affair and left me she suddenly became able to do school pick ups at 3pm and take random days off at no notice to cover child's sick days etc. Yes it's hurtful that they couldn't or wouldn't do these things whilst married to you, but it's better for the kids to have 2 involved parents and that's the only sensible way to think about it in my view. The alternative achieves nothing other than bitterness and resentment (which affects the kids)

based lesbians showing some empathy for men through the shared misfortune of having to date women

I agree with it being an act. He probably wants to look like a good dad in front of his partner, maybe she is helping out too.

He's showing off, she's playing house. It won't last.

funny that foids do to interpret everything they don't like as a social performance

I really enjoyed these holidays with my Dad. It wasn't a Disney Dad effect (how horrid - no one calls you a Disney Mum when you take your kids on a holiday). It sounds like your ExH is happier now (you were clearly not a good match for each other), that's great for him and the kids. You should just focus on you trying to be happy, rather than bitter that ExH is happier now, and a better parent on his own. It's sad for you, but no need to take it personally - you just weren't a good couple together. That's OK!

but not everyone ITT is an r-slur and some suggest that spending your whole life in some neurotic seethe about an ex is probably not a good use of energy

This subreddit is for Crooked Media which hosts the liberal/leftist Pod Save America podcast. The podcast is hosted by Obama staff and they seethe about everything Trump related. Needless to say their subreddit is seethemaxxing after their interview with Stephen A Smith.

For those who are unaware, Stephen A Smith is an ESPN Sports talking head who is known for being loud and opinionated. He is also known to not be as black as his former cohost Max Kellerman:

Smith very funny in doses (people can disagree and I concede their point) because he has r-slurred sports takes, but is a great debater because he's been doing debate shows since him and Skip "$1.5 million for s*x" Bayless started the trend https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/skip-bayless-offered-former-fox-sports-hairstylist-15-million-s*x-laws-rcna186330

So you may be asking youself, "Hey Todd why is Skyrim so great and why is this black sports commenter on a political podcast?" Well my friend, it's because IT JUST WORKS and because it looks like Stephen A Smith is polling at 2% for the next democratic nomination. I know crazy right! I hope it happens and we get Lebron James as his VP.

Here is the thing, Stephen A has the most milquetoast political opinion when it comes to politics, you can go listen to it yourself. He is Anti-immigration, hates high taxes (he's very rich ), and thought the dems were too woke, but (shocker!) this subreddit did not take that well. Go see for yourself in the comments!

This is not a virus:

First chuds actually believe this is a thing. Great bait opportunity for a trans pet sub to get mentioned in congress

Hollywood is the real world

The hearing itself was also the lulz with the chair claiming

Given the fact that we've got quantum computing, we have AI, is there opportunities where if we're truly trying to do research and determine something, couldn't they run a lot of this research through advanced technology

We don't have quantum computing. Its not clear we will ever have quantum computing. We have small scale experiments that have limited utility, we have been decades away for decades.

ML is already used extensively but is still a long way from simulating even a single organ system effectively. Its breathtaking how poorly people conceive of the complexity of protein and chemical interactions, don't motherlovers realize they have trillions of biorobots in their bodies that make it work?

Absolutely and there are studies that have come out of Johns Hopkins and elsewhere showing that things like screening drugs and chemicals for human safety are actually much more accurate and efficient using computer modeling and AI rather than testing it on a lab rat.

https://hub.jhu.edu/magazine/2024/fall/alternatives-to-animal-testing-advances/

All the studies the hearing and the chud animal enjoyer have highlighted would require animal testing. Particularly the ones investigating s*x hormones, they act as both hormones and neurotransmitters so have broad interactions with many organs.

Animal enjoyer also thinks safety testing should skip animals and go right to humans. Maybe we can make that a Medicaid requirement, if poors want healthcare they have to try new compounds to figure out if its safe for humans to be exposed to them.

This is the story of James Sligo Jameson (pictured below) who was a Scottish naturalist well known for being the first person to identify several species in birds found within the African continent. Though he is less known for his adventures in birding and more known for the time that he purchased a young slave in the African Congo so he could see her eaten by a tribe he came in contact with.

BACKSTORY

Cannibalism in Central Africa, particularly in the Congo region, was heavily reported on European explorers and missionaries long before the Jameson Affair. It was said that the flesh of young children was particularly enjoyed. During this time in the Congo, and slaves were often from members of other tribes who were not born into captivity but stolen and forced into slavery through raids. Children were seen as useless so made into some use by being eaten. Particularly well off chiefs of Congo tribes were also said to raise children just like animals for the sole purpose of being eaten. Doing this probably wasn't just for food but also a way for tribes to dominate their slaves and to flaunt wealth in some cases. Accounts of this happening were often sensationalized and exaggerated by explorers and missionaries which made many later explorers become interested in witnessing first hand these acts.

The white man of course also took advantage of this, slaves were given in exchange for ivory that was exported to Europe with knowledge that the slaves would be eaten. (Pictured below, whites taking advantage of African slaves in Africa) Slaves would also be rented from slavers for cheap as they would be eaten upon return.

The Jameson Affair

The Emin Pasha Relief Expedition took place aithin the Congo free state which though owned and exploited by the Beglians still had many Africans living outside of plantations and such. The expedition was led by Henry Morton Stanley to rescue Emin Pasha, the governor of Equatoria (a province of Ottoman-Egyptian Sudan), who was threatened by Mahdist forces. Deapite the stated mission it is likely that the expedition was carried out to further Survey and Expand Belgian colonization into Congolese lands. James Jameson joined expedition as he was interested in the continent of Africa and intended to catalogue and record what he saw there.

James Jameson was reportedly very interested in the practice of African cannibalism. During the expedition he travelled in some part with an infamous African slaver known as Tippu Tip. When stopped in a town known as Riba Riba With Tippu Tip (Modern day Lokandu In the D.R. Congo) he witnessed a traditional African dance celebration. Tippu Tip then told him that such festivities usually ended with a large cannibalistic banquet and that he has seen many happen in the Congo himself. James Jameson then sought information from local tribe leaders on whether or not what he had heard of African cannibalism was true. From the tribe leaders he learned that the practice was in fact common in the area and they along with Tippu Tip's men urged him to purchase a young slave and to give them over to one of the neighboring tribal villages if he actually wished to see for himself.

Following this advice James Jameson used six European made handkerchiefs and purchased a female slave from within the village whom he assessed to be around ten years old. (Pictured below, a drawing of a slave that James Jameson made himself.)

With some other members of his expedition party James Jameson further followed what the tribal leaders of Riba Riba and Tippu Tip told him to do. He approached a nearby village of native huts that was pointed out to him. As the locals came to greet him he supposedly had his translator who could converse with the native Congolese tell them:

"This is a present from the white man. He wants to see how you eat her"

James Jameson then watched as the native Congolese tied up the slave, slaughtered her, and butchered her into pieces to be prepared and eaten. He recorded the whole process even sketching what he saw. What he drew in my opinion is way too sensitive to be posted here but he draws the native Congolese like minstrel show characters with thick lips to give you an idea of how he views these people. His recount of the act is as follows:

I sent my boy for six handkerchiefs, thinking it was all a joke ..., but presently a man appeared, leading a young girl of about ten years old at the hand, and I then witnessed the most horribly sickening sight I am ever likely to see in my life. He plunged a knife quickly into her breast twice, and she fell on her face, turning over on her side. Three men then ran forward, and began to cut up the body of the girl; finally her head was cut off, and not a particle remained, each man taking his piece away down to the river to wash it. The most extraordinary thing was that the girl never uttered a sound, nor struggled, until she fell. Until the last moment, I could not believe that they were in earnest ... that it was anything save a ruse to get money out of me ...

After this event the expedition carried on and James Jameson identified several species of African birds some of which where then named after him.

Aftermath and controversy

The occurence of the Jameson affair did not escape the knowledge of those who partook in the expedition until after James Jameson's deathen when around 1888 Assad Farran who was James Jameson's interpreter for the native Congolese issued a sworn statement recalling his account of the purchase and subsequent killing and cannibalism. The account gained widespread popularity being published in News papers across England and America, with several other members of the expedition soon concurring with the statement though some of them contradictory. All agreed upon the fact that the incident began in the house of the tribal leaders at Riba Riba, that Tippu Tip was present and told James Jameson to do it, the age of the girl, and the price he paid for her. Accounts including James Jameson's differ on whether or not he had full knowledge of what was to happen, and all retellings of the story including James Jameson's are considered to having an unreliable narrator.

The distraught widow of James Jameson soon issued a statement herself, trying to uphold James Jameson's legacy with an apparent statement on the event issued by James Jameson on his deathbed.

According to this account James Jameson supposedly did not believe that cannibalism occured in the Congo at all and thought Tippu Tip was simply joking with him about it. He apparently also thought that Tippu Tips associates telling him to pay for a slave in cloth was also a joke, and he continued to believe it was all a farce up until the moment he handed over the girl and saw her killed and eaten.

Also don't know how else to bring it up but James Jameson was an heir to the Jameson Whiskey fortune and used some that money to fund his naturalist endeavors and this expedition in particular lol.

So, what is the truth?

Summary in her own words

Going to try to summarize the comments post so far,

I believe he is cheating because he is a serial cheater and we've had many issues with cheating in the past. We will break up for a few months, get back together, and kinda repeat.

We've been doing this for 8 years in April. He originally told me he would be here Thursday night, but told me he had a morning meeting at 6am Friday and didn't think he could make the 6hr drive to come see me and preform in this meeting. I was upset, but we talked not out and he was supposed to come Friday night/valentines day night, he was distant Valentine's Day, but said work was ready busy, I didn't think much of it, then this interaction happened:

Confirming he was at home alone, but also he has Brie for dinner which seemed… off?

Anyways, he was acting depressed, and wanting to be nice I ordered him roses and his favorite candy to his house. I told him to expect a delivery within the hour. He left this message read but did not answer. Which was … super bizarre? So I at that moment had the idea to message the door dasher asking about a second car in the drive way.

She asked if I still wanted her to complete the delivery, and I was like, uh, yes, and I'll send an extra 10$ if you loudly say " this is a gift from your girlfriend " dasher agreed, but even though she rang the door bell and knock repeatedly, the dude would not answer.

While talking to the driver, I said something like " what the heck, I've been dating this man for almost 8 years" which triggered the chat to close, I about screamed in frustration, but I did leave the dasher 20$ as a tip for her detective work.

Currently, laying in bed obsessing over this with my cats while pretending that I'm driving the 6 hours to my soon to be exs house and confronting him. If he doesn't answer by the end of this count down I'm just going message something like. " I saw what I need to see, I'm driving home" and actually have some leverage for his stupid lies when he does come around to answering me.

Shes textboming this guy and hes not replying

Currently, I'm in my bed with my cats, but texting him every 30 min to 1 hr saying I'm making the 6 hour drive to his place.

I'm going to pretend I drove up, saw the car, and drove home, and if he tries to fact check me im going to use the door dashers photo 😭😂

Justification

!foidmoment and !moidmoment too I guess?

Guy in question

anyway Thanks @Vegeta for the idea to sub to /r/doordash, its a gold mine

WASHINGTON — National Nuclear Security Administration officials on Friday attempted to notify some employees who had been let go the day before that they are now due to be reinstated — but they struggled to find them because they didn't have their new contact information.

In an email sent to employees at NNSA and obtained by NBC News, officials wrote, "The termination letters for some NNSA probationary employees are being rescinded, but we do not have a good way to get in touch with those personnel."

The individuals the letter refers to had been fired on Thursday and lost access to their federal government email accounts. NNSA, which is within the Department of Energy and oversees the nation's nuclear stockpile, cannot reach these employees directly and is now asking recipients of the email, "Please work with your supervisors to send this information (once you get it) to people's personal contact emails."

Like it or not, generative AI is carving out its place in the world. And some Reddit users are definitely in the "don't like it" category. While some subreddits openly welcome AI-generated images, videos, and text, others have responded to the growing trend by banning most or all posts made with the technology.

To better understand the reasoning and obstacles associated with these bans, Ars Technica spoke with moderators of subreddits that totally or partially ban generative AI. Almost all these volunteers described moderating against generative AI as a time-consuming challenge they expect to get more difficult as time goes on. And most are hoping that Reddit will release a tool to help their efforts.

It's hard to know how much AI-generated content is actually on Reddit, and getting an estimate would be a large undertaking. Image library Freepik has analyzed the use of AI-generated content on social media but leaves Reddit out of its research because "it would take loads of time to manually comb through thousands of threads within the platform," spokesperson Bella Valentini told me. For its part, Reddit doesn't publicly disclose how many Reddit posts involve generative AI use.

To be clear, we're not suggesting that Reddit has a large problem with generative AI use. By now, many subreddits seem to have agreed on their approach to AI-generated posts, and generative AI has not superseded the real, human voices that have made Reddit popular.

Still, mods largely agree that generative AI will likely get more popular on Reddit over the next few years, making generative AI modding increasingly important to both moderators and general users. Generative AI's rising popularity has also had implications for Reddit the company, which in 2024 started licensing Reddit posts to train the large language models (LLMs) powering generative AI.

(Note: All the moderators I spoke with for this story requested that I use their Reddit usernames instead of their real names due to privacy concerns.)

No generative AI allowed

When it comes to anti-generative AI rules, numerous subreddits have zero-tolerance policies, while others permit posts that use generative AI if it's combined with human elements or is executed very well. These rules task mods with identifying posts using generative AI and determining if they fit the criteria to be permitted on the subreddit.

Many subreddits have rules against posts made with generative AI because their mod teams or members consider such posts "low effort" or believe AI is counterintuitive to the subreddit's mission of providing real human expertise and creations.

"At a basic level, generative AI removes the human element from the Internet; if we allowed it, then it would undermine the very point of /r/AskHistorians, which is engagement with experts," the mods of /r/AskHistorians told me in a collective statement.

The subreddit's goal is to provide historical information, and its mods think generative AI could make information shared on the subreddit less accurate. "[Generative AI] is likely to hallucinate facts, generate non-existent references, or otherwise provide misleading content," the mods said. "Someone getting answers from an LLM can't respond to follow-ups because they aren't an expert. We have built a reputation as a reliable source of historical information, and the use of [generative AI], especially without oversight, puts that at risk."

Similarly, Halaku, a mod of /r/wheeloftime, told me that the subreddit's mods banned generative AI because "we focus on genuine discussion." Halaku believes AI content can't facilitate "organic, genuine discussion" and "can drown out actual artwork being done by actual artists."

The /r/lego subreddit banned AI-generated art because it caused confusion in online fan communities and retail stores selling Lego products, /r/lego mod Mescad said. "People would see AI-generated art that looked like Lego on [Instagram] or [Facebook] and then go into the store to ask to buy it," they explained. "We decided that our community's dedication to authentic Lego products doesn't include AI-generated art."

Not all of Reddit is against generative AI, of course. Subreddits dedicated to the technology exist, and some general subreddits permit the use of generative AI in some or all forms.

"When it comes to bans, I would rather focus on hate speech, Nazi salutes, and things that actually harm the subreddits," said 3rdusernameiveused, who moderates /r/consoom and /r/TeamBuilder25, which don't ban generative AI. "AI art does not do that... If I was going to ban [something] for 'moral' reasons, it probably won't be AI art."

"Overwhelmingly low-effort slop"

Some generative AI bans are reflective of concerns that people are not being properly compensated for the content they create, which is then fed into LLM training.

Mod Mathgeek007 told me that /r/DeadlockTheGame bans generative AI because its members consider it "a form of uncredited theft," adding:

You aren't allowed to sell/advertise the workers of others, and AI in a sense is using patterns derived from the work of others to create mockeries. I'd personally have less of an issue with it if the artists involved were credited and compensated---and there are some niche AI cowtools that do this.\

Other moderators simply think generative AI reduces the quality of a subreddit's content.

"It often just doesn't look good... the art can often look subpar," Mathgeek007 said.

Similarly, /r/videos bans most AI-generated content because, according to its announcement, the videos are "annoying" and "just bad video" 99 percent of the time. In an online interview, /r/videos mod Abrownn told me:

It's overwhelmingly low-effort slop thrown together simply for views/ad revenue. The creators rarely care enough to put real effort into post-generation [or] editing of the content [and] rarely have coherent narratives [in] the videos, etc. It seems like they just throw the generated content into a video, export it, and call it a day.\

An /r/fakemon mod told me, "I can't think of anything more low-effort in terms of art creation than just typing words and having it generated for you."

Some moderators say generative AI helps people spam unwanted content on a subreddit, including posts that are irrelevant to the subreddit and posts that attack users.

"[Generative AI] content is almost entirely posted for purely self promotional/monetary reasons, and we as mods on Reddit are constantly dealing with abusive users just spamming their content without regard for the rules," Abrownn said.

A moderator of the /r/wallpaper subreddit, which permits generative AI, disagrees. The mod told me that generative AI "provides new routes for novel content" in the subreddit and questioned concerns about generative AI stealing from human artists or offering lower-quality work, saying those problems aren't unique to generative AI:

Even in our community, we observe human-generated content that is subjectively low quality (poor camera/[P]hotoshopping skills, low-resolution source material, intentional "shitposting"). It can be argued that AI-generated content amplifies this behavior, but our experience (which we haven't quantified) is that the rate of such behavior (whether human-generated or AI-generated content) has not changed much within our own community.

But we're not a very active community---[about] 13 posts per day ... so it very well could be a "frog in boiling water" situation.

Generative AI "wastes our time"

Many mods are confident in their ability to effectively identify posts that use generative AI. A bigger problem is how much time it takes to identify these posts and remove them.

The /r/AskHistorians mods, for example, noted that all bans on the subreddit (including bans unrelated to AI) have "an appeals process," and "making these assessments and reviewing AI appeals means we're spending a considerable amount of time on something we didn't have to worry about a few years ago."

They added:

Frankly, the biggest challenge with [generative AI] usage is that it wastes our time. The time spent evaluating responses for AI use, responding to AI evangelists who try to flood our subreddit with inaccurate slop and then argue with us in modmail, [direct messages that message a subreddits' mod team], and discussing edge cases could better be spent on other subreddit projects, like our podcast, newsletter, and AMAs, ... providing feedback to users, or moderating input from users who intend to positively contribute to the community.\

Several other mods I spoke with agree. Mathgeek007, for example, named "fighting AI bros" as a common obstacle. And for /r/wheeloftime moderator Halaku, the biggest challenge in moderating against generative AI is "a generational one."

"Some of the current generation don't have a problem with it being AI because content is content, and [they think] we're being elitist by arguing otherwise, and they want to argue about it," they said.

A couple of mods noted that it's less time-consuming to moderate subreddits that ban generative AI than it is to moderate those that allow posts using generative AI, depending on the context.

"On subreddits where we allowed AI, I often take a bit longer time to actually go into each post where I feel like... it's been AI-generated to actually look at it and make a decision," explained N3DSdude, a mod of several subreddits with rules against generative AI, including /r/DeadlockTheGame.

MyarinTime, a moderator for /r/lewdgames, which allows generative AI images, highlighted the challenges of identifying human-prompted generative AI content versus AI-generated content prompted by a bot:

When the AI bomb started, most of those bots started using AI content to work around our filters. Most of those bots started showing some random AI render, so it looks like you're actually talking about a game when you're not. There's no way to know when those posts are legit games unless [you check] them one by one. I honestly believe it would be easier if we kick any post with [AI-]generated image... instead of checking if a button was pressed by a human or not.

Mods expect things to get worse

Most mods told me it's pretty easy for them to detect posts made with generative AI, pointing to the distinct tone and favored phrases of AI-generated text. A few said that AI-generated video is harder to spot but still detectable. But as generative AI gets more advanced, moderators are expecting their work to get harder.

In a joint statement, /r/dune mods Blue_Three and Herbalhippie said, "AI used to have a problem making hands---i.e., too many fingers, etc.---but as time goes on, this is less and less of an issue."

/r/videos' Abrownn also wonders how easy it will be to detect AI-generated Reddit content "as AI cowtools advance and content becomes more lifelike."

Mathgeek007 added:

AI is becoming tougher to spot and is being propagated at a larger rate. When AI style becomes normalized, it becomes tougher to fight. I expect generative AI to get significantly worse---until it becomes indistinguishable from ordinary art.\

Moderators currently use various methods to fight generative AI, but they're not perfect. /r/AskHistorians mods, for example, use "AI detectors, which are unreliable, problematic, and sometimes require paid subscriptions, as well as our own ability to detect AI through experience and expertise," while N3DSdude pointed to cowtools like Quid and GPTZero.

To manage current and future work around blocking generative AI, most of the mods I spoke with said they'd like Reddit to release a proprietary tool to help them.

"I've yet to see a reliable tool that can detect AI-generated video content," Aabrown said. "Even if we did have such a tool, we'd be putting hundreds of hours of content through the tool daily, which would get rather expensive rather quickly. And we're unpaid volunteer moderators, so we will be outgunned shortly when it comes to detecting this type of content at scale. We can only hope that Reddit will offer us a tool at some point in the near future that can help deal with this issue."

A Reddit spokesperson told me that the company is evaluating what such a tool could look like. But Reddit doesn't have a rule banning generative AI overall, and the spokesperson said the company doesn't want to release a tool that would hinder expression or creativity.\

For now, Reddit seems content to rely on moderators to remove AI-generated content when appropriate. Reddit's spokesperson added:

Our moderation approach helps ensure that content on Reddit is curated by real humans. Moderators are quick to remove content that doesn't follow community rules, including harmful or irrelevant AI-generated content---we don't see this changing in the near future.

Making a generative AI Reddit tool wouldn't be easy

Reddit is handling the evolving concerns around generative AI as it has handled other content issues, including by leveraging AI and machine learning cowtools. Reddit's spokesperson said that this includes testing cowtools that can identify AI-generated media, such as images of politicians.

But making a proprietary tool that allows moderators to detect AI-generated posts won't be easy, if it happens at all. The current cowtools for detecting generative AI are limited in their capabilities, and as generative AI advances, Reddit would need to provide cowtools that are more advanced than the AI-detecting cowtools that are currently available.

That would require a good deal of technical resources and would also likely present notable economic challenges for the social media platform, which only became profitable last year. And as noted by /r/videos moderator Abrownn, cowtools for detecting AI-generated video still have a long way to go, making a Reddit-specific system especially challenging to create.

But even with a hypothetical Reddit tool, moderators would still have their work cut out for them. And because Reddit's popularity is largely due to its content from real humans, that work is important.

Since Reddit's inception, that has meant relying on moderators, which Reddit has said it intends to keep doing. As /r/dune mods Blue_Three and herbalhippie put it, it's in Reddit's "best interest that much/most content remains organic in nature." After all, Reddit's profitability has a lot to do with how much AI companies are willing to pay to access Reddit data. That value would likely decline if Reddit posts became largely AI-generated themselves.

But providing the technology to ensure that generative AI isn't abused on Reddit would be a large challege. For now, volunteer laborers will continue to bear the brunt of generative AI moderation.

Filibustering

Finger-wagging church ladies, the only thing eurocucks can do in international disputes is write strongly-worded letters that everyone who matters simply ignores. For the past 30 years you've been pretending that Europe doesn't needs power nor prosperity (spending your efforts instead on the feeding of leeches). So now you have neither.

-- @65364254

Also known as freebooting, filibustering of the 19th century was a phenomenon in which mercenary groups operating under their own initiative invaded foreign countries in Latin America to bring them into the light of civilization under American influence. These expeditions were not condoned or sponsored by the US government, but could theoretically have led to official recognition in the event of success, such as when William Walker's brief control of Nicaragua was recognized by President Franklin Pierce.

The word was derived from the Spanish filibustero, itself deriving originally from the Dutch vrijbuiter (pirate, @kaamrev @duck discuss) originally used by the Spanish to describe the English pirates raiding their towns and shipping. Sir Francis Drake stands as one example as he, like Trump, also had an interest in Panama He went as far as to raid it and other settlements along the Spanish Main.

As the eternal culture war between England and Spain has been inherited by their successor states, "filibustering" was revived in the early 19th century as a variety of mercenaries took up arms against Spanish colonial forces in Latin America and for a variety of reasons. Perhaps the beginning of it all occurred in 1806 when Francisco de Miranda, a Venezuelan who served in and was inspired by the American and French Revolutions, attempted to win early Venezuelan independence with an army including American volunteers recruited from New York. (And for that matter the later and more successful campaigns of Simon Bolivar and Jose de San Martin also made use of Protestant, English speaking volunteers) Further volunteer campaigns at the expense of Catholic Mediterraneanoids would go on to define the century.

In this post I shall list off some of the most dramatic of these individuals. I hope you guys like "Did you know"s Exampe: Did you know the modern term for congressional filibustering was named after the 19th century practice due to its independent, "free wheeling" nature?

William Walker

A man a plan anal Panama

-- @Miffin

Did You Know That: An American was (unofficially) the President of Nicaragua, Sonora, and Baja?

William Walker was a Nashvilloid who graduated summa c*m laude from the University of Nashville at the age of 14. At 19 he received a medical degree from the University of Pennsylvania, then continued his studies at Edinburgh, Scotland and Heidelberg, Baden-Württemberg. He practiced both medicine and law for a few years before becoming editor of the San Francisco Herald, where he fought three duels including a near fatal one against notorious Old West gunman William Hicks Graham. Inspired by how Texas had broken away from Mexico to join the Union, he decided one day he could potentially do the same with the Mexican state of Sonora

In other words going to college used to make you cool

In 1853, Walker and forty five men captured La Paz and declared it the new capital of "The Republic of Lower California". Mexican resistance prevented him from going any further, and he retreated back to California to be tried in violation of the Neutrality Act of 1794. In the era of Manifest Destiny, however, Walker's actions were popular and the jury took just eight minutes to acquit him

In 1854, a civil war erupted in Nicaragua, and Walker arrived in 1855 with a larger mercenary army in alleged support of Francisco Castellón's Democratic Party. Commanding Democratic locals as well as volunteers including future Confederate officers and European adventurers with veterancy in conflicts like the First Carlist War, Hungarian Revolution, and the Russo-Circassian War (I think it was just easier to meet people back then ) Walker's forces captured Granada and took effective control over the country. Walker's new administration was recognized at the time by 14th US President Franklin Pierce.

All of Central America united against one honky tonker?

Walker's initial success alarmed the nations of Central America, and a coalition of Costa Rica, Honduras, El Salvador, and Guatemala ultimately came together to oppose him. They were further financed and supported by industrialist Cornelius Vanderbilt, as Walker had seized some of his ships and railroads in the region. (!americas have Napoleonic Wars at home ) Major moments include almost ten percent of Costa Rica's population dying from cholera and Guatemalan Colonel José Víctor Zavala becoming a national hero after stealing a flag from Walker's house

Pressure from hardworking Central Americans eventually forced Walker to flee the country with the US Navy. He returned to America and became a divisive figure; a pirate in the north, but a hero in the south who inspired the idea of increasing slave state political influence by potentially spreading !dixie control into the Spanish tropics.

In 1860 Walker tried to launch another expedition and made his way to Roatán, supposedly because British colonists there wanted help against the Honduran government. However, he was turned over to the British Navy. The British, like the of today, desired to build a canal through Central America and viewed Walker as a threat to their interests. They handed him over to Honduras where he was tried for piracy and fiibustering. In his defense he argued that piracy can't take place on land and that "filibustering" was a made up Spanish word

He was executed by firing squad

John A. Quitman

This is going to be America's Suez Crisis.

-- @Dlanor_A_Kong

Like many other great southerners, John Quitman was a lawyer with a degree from Hartwick back when it was a Lutheran seminary. He owned several plantations and a dairy farm He generally thought relations between masters and slaves were "harmonious" because he was too busy serving in the Mississippi state government and fighting in Mexico to personally oversee any of his properites

Quitman was an officer during the Mexican-American War and his troops spearheaded the attack at the Battle of Chapultepec, an engagement memorialized to this day in the opening line of the Marine Corps Hymn (what @HailVictory1776 pretends to be ) Quitman received the surrender of the citadel in Mexico City and became military governor there for the duration of the occupation. He stands as the only American to rule from the National Palace

America could've acquired Cuba decades before the Spanish-American War?

While serving as Governor of Mississippi, Quitman was approached by yet another Venezuelan adventurer, Narciso López, to support an armed liberation of Cuba from Spanish rule. Quitman wished to complete his term in office but raised supplies and funds for the expedition.

Having failed to get direct American support (some of Lopez's other prospects for command included Jefferson Davis and Robert E. Lee) Lopez led the assault on Cuba himself. He stands as the creator of the modern Cuban flag and was the first to ever raise it He was ultimately defeated and executed. Ironically he went down as both a Cuban national and dixie southerner hero as he never clarified whether he wanted full Cuban independence or an American annexation.

Quitman was prosecuted for violating the Neutrality Act and had to resign as governor, but escaped punishment thanks to multiple hung juries So close to the American civil war, filibustering had evolved into yet another polarizing conflict between the north and south. Walker's instatement of slavery in Nicaragua led to an epiphany among southerners, realizing that conquest in the south would allow for the spread of slavery; new lands to own, new crops to grow, new votes for slave states in the federal government, etc. Control of Cuba was especially desirable since the island already had developed plantation infrastructure. Lastly, the annexation of Texas had already "proven" how Anglo settlers could win land from the Spaniard barbarians and add it to the Union as slave holding territory

Apparently quite inspired by Lopez's actions, Quitman attempted to organize his own filibustering invasion of Cuba. He had thousands of volunteers ready to go when in 1854 the Pierce administration, previously willing to look the other way, urged him to call it off. As the country was now within a decade of the Civil War, perhaps it was believed such a major undertaking to add so much slave holding territory would have been too upsetting to the northern Democrat's position and too much of a provocation towards the free states.

Other Filibusterers

There were filibusterers among the Founding Fathers?

I hope he gets a visit from the fifth next time he is in the UK. He doesn't have a license for that speech. Treason Act 1351, The Terrorism Act 2000 & The Public Order Act 1986 have all been violated. The punishment in the Treason Act was never officially repealed so he is going to be looking forward to hanging, drawing, and quartering.

-- @fedposter

Backing up a bit, some 18th century attempts at expansionism can be considered filibustering. The difference is whether the activities were successful or not i.e. the Louisiana Purchase wasn't considered filibustering because it was entirely official

William Blount was a landowner, politician, and Revolutionary War founding father who negotiated the 1791 Treaty of Holston against sphereserf's people An aggressive land speculator, Blount fell into heavy debt and secretly conspired to help the British take control of Louisiana and Florida, both controlled at the time by Spain, in exchange for good land deals The plan called for American territorial militias, with the aid of the British Royal Navy, to launch attacks across Spanish territory. The plot was found out and Blount became the first ever federal official to face impeachment.

Another example of the period that also involved Florida, Congressman and Governor of Georgia George Mathews' political career was ruined by the Yazoo Land Fraud and he relocated to the Mississippi Territory. Eager to regain prominence, Mathews suggested to President James Madison that Spanish western Florida could be annexed, and he was sent as a secret agent with "remarkably vague and general" instructions to incite rebellion among the Spanish populace.

Mathews was unable to take the territory peacefully and so raised an army of Georgians and locals to seize Fernandina Beach and Amelia Island. Madison grew skittish and suddenly refused to support Mathews' acquisitions, and he died from fever while traveling to DC to complain. Historians remain unsure whether Mathews was acting within Madison's mandate or not.

There were NCR Rangers in real life?

A veteran of the Mexican war, Joseph C. Morehead was most known for leading a Californian militia in the Gila Expedition to attack the Quecha people The State of California was nearly bankrupted by the $120,000 cost of the Expedition, which killed no Indians

He is said to have filibustered in Mexico in the 1850's, and a second time in the 60's while serving in the Confederate army. He did not succeed and died in 1863.

Mexicans once drank gringo head wine?

Henry A. Crabb was a US soldier, a member of the California state senate, a leader of the Whig Party, and an unsuccessful candidate for the Know Nothing Party in 1857. After losing in California politics, he organized an expedition to support to aid the Liberal rebels in Mexico's ongoing Reform War. Like Walker before him he targeted the state of Sonora but was defeated and captured. He and the other survivors were massacred, and a Mississippi newspaper would claim the Mexicans preserved his head in spirits of wine before sending it to Mexico City.

Filibusterers were part of Texan independence?

...and lesbian pottery classes are the tip of the Western spear that will destroy our enemies and topple their regimes from within. So which is it, you stupid fricks? Is feminism irrelevant, or is it undermining the fabric of society?

-- @JimieWhales

The independence and annexation of Texas into the Union can, as a whole, be seen as a successful act of filibustering. It would heavily inspire further attempts at increasing southern slave holding territory.

More specifically, West Point graduate Augustus Magee participated in filibustering way back in 1812 by joining Bernardo Gutiérrez de Lara's Mexican independence movement with an army of American frontiersman and French creoles The Gutiérrez–Magee Expedition served as an early example of American interests in the region, though ironically it was fighting on behalf of and to help create Mexico.

War of 1812 veteran and US army surgeon James Long was one of many southern settlers who disagreed with the United States/New Spain border agreed upon by the Adams–Onís Treaty, and in 1819 the Long Expedition captured Nacogdoches to proclaim an early "Republic of Texas". He was ultimately defeated, sent to Mexico City to present his case to Mexico's president, and was shot and killed by a guard

From a Mexican perspective, the actual Texan Revolution of 1835 was part of a larger crisis in which several Mexican territories challenged the central government for one reason or another . A particularly ironic one involved José de Urrea, a Mexican officer and the perpetuator of the Goliad Massacre against the Texians, himself turning on Mexico's central government from a base of power in Sonora (Apparently that state is cursed lmao )

After winning independence, the newborn Texan government supported the Republic of Yucatán's conflict with Mexico through naval forces and fought a number of battles in the Gulf (of America ) to support the Mayanoid's own independence. The Republic of Texas also sent a few boats to support the Tabasco Rebellion in 1839. Texas did not, however, support the Republic of the Rio Grande due to border disputes.

Decades later, some filibuster-maxxers would support the idea of Cuban annexation by saying it could become as important to the south as Texas had become.

Some Americans genuinely fought for local independence?

Carter was the worst sort of naive Kumbaya singing liberal, the sort who categorically reject everything Hobbes wrote about in favor of some fantasy world where everyone is peaceful and selfless instead of acting in their own rational self-interest.

-- @Adolin113355

Not all filibusterers were fighting to literally spread the United States. Some genuinely believed in the ideological importance of independent republics, while others simply had no local American wars to earn their fame in. Americans participated in a number of Latin American local conflicts over the time period.

Son-in-law of John Adams and brother-in-law of John Quincy Adams, William Stephens Smith was convinced to support Francisco de Miranda's attempt at Venezuelan independence with a force of 200 men, including his own son William Steuben. Though he created Venezuela's modern flag and was an inspiration for Simon Bolivar, Miranda's army was defeated and Smith was tried for violating the Neutrality Act. He argued that President Thomas Jefferson had ordered him to do it, leading to a US Supreme Court decision that a president cannot order someone to violate the law.

In the post Civil War era, William A.C. Ryan was a Canadian born Union veteran who was dishonorably discharged from the army and barred from all veteran benefits. He went on to participate in the Ten Years' War, Cuba's first serious struggle for independence. He fought under the mambises and served on American ships that contributed to the cause.

The Spanish navy eventually went after these ships, and Ryans was captured by a torpedo boat while on the ill-fated Virginius. The Spanish executed him and a few dozen others as pirates before the British intervened. The Virginius Affair was a major provocation between the US and Spain and led to a modernization and expansion of the US Navy. Meanwhile, the participation of American filibusterers throughout demonstrates a sort of continuity between antebellum filibustering traditions and the expansionism of the later 19th century.

I sympathize with the Cubans in their gallant efforts on behalf of liberty and I, being an American, feel it necessary to do what I can to separate entirely this continent from Europe.

-- William A. Chanler

Going into the 20th century, William A. Chanler was a soldier and explorer who served as a US Representative from New York. Believing it was an American's obligation to support independence from colonial powers across the world His Americas activities included participation in the Spanish-American War and a 1902 insurrection in Venezuela. Approached by a group of Dutch investors to stage a rebellion against President Cipriano Castro, Chanler bookended the era by raising an army of "desperadoes, soldiers of fortune, cattle rustlers, bank robbers, gamblers, Indian scouts and fugitives", with some hailing from the pro-Confederate Quantrill's Raiders and others rustled up by his acquaintance Butch Cassidy Chanler's army landed in Venezuela and marched inland, calling off the attack only after Castro acceded to demands and ended the crisis. The investors rewarded Chanler by letting him borrow money , and he used it to build infrastructure in Tampico, Mexico and fund rebellious activity in Libya and Somalia. (At one point he even entertained Chinese revolutionary Sun Yat-sen and members of the Young Turks aboard his yacht)

It wasn't just America that hated Spaniards?

I shake the hands of the white libertarians, heirs of Lincoln and of the black and white peasant boys of the USA, before whose graves I cried and prayed on a battlefield, which I reached, after walking the mountains of Italian Tuscany and after being saved from Covid. They are the USA and before them I kneel, before no one else. Overthrow me, President, and the Americas and humanity will respond. Colombia now stops looking north, looks at the world, our blood comes from the blood of the Caliphate of Córdoba, the civilization at that time, of the Roman Latins of the Mediterranean, the civilization of that time, who founded the republic, democracy in Athens; our blood has the black resisters turned into slaves by you. In Colombia is the first free territory of America, before Washington, of all America, there I take refuge in its African songs. My land is of goldsmithing existing in the time of the Egyptian pharaohs, and of the first artists of the world in Chiribiquete. You will never dominate us. The warrior who rode our lands, shouting freedom and who is called Bolívar opposes us.

-- Colombian President Gustavo Petro

The aforementioned Narciso Lopez was just as prominent a filibusterer as Walker and Quitman, though not really an American one. A Venezuelan who went from Spanish army to Cuban nationalist, Lopez actually fought as a conscript for the Spanish government against the revolutionary forces of Bolivar and retreated to Cuba following Spain's total defeat in South America. Lopez stayed in the army and became an officer, even fighting in the Carlist War within Spain proper. He became an assistant to the Capitan General of Cuba but was financially ruined after that position changed hands, causing him to side with Cuban partisans (out of spite? )

Lopez travelled to the United States and became an unlikely dixie hero by appealing to filibusterers at the height of the practice's popularity. Lopez joined the Freemasons, won funding from a variety of plantation owners and army officers, and used the money to amass an army of Cuban exiles for an invasion. He was defeated and executed by the Spanish.

Funnily enough, Lopez went down as both a Cuban national hero and a champion of American southern expansion. Having lost, he never had to clarify whether he intended for a new southern state or an independent republic.

Neighbor what the frick does Brapzil has to do with Panama , not even the average Latinx knows anything about Panama other than their canal and the Chacaron Macaron song, A.K.A. the official r-slur anthem.

Gaston de Raousset-Boulbon was a French entrepreneur/pirate who served in France's gradual conquest of Algeria. Frustrated by the Revolution of 1848, he made his way to America and tried to make his fortune as a gold prospector. Already worried about the fading importance of the old nobility in France, he was especially annoyed that the people of San Francisco didn't respect his title of Count. (They were too busy with Emperor Norton)

Like so many others, Raousset-Boulbon decided to invade -- get this, Sonora -- and create a French aligned independent republic. He was defeated by Mexican forces under José María Yáñez, a veteran of the Pastry War against France who would also thwart William Walker's attack, and executed.

He was only a few years early, as the actual French government would come for Mexico in 1861. Raousset-Boulbon's remains were eventually found by French soldiers and returned to Europe.

It's just like the good ol' 19th century again. And like back then you can't afford all this high fallutin' ideals that you could when you were the hegemon. Free markets? Easy migration? Losing your industrial base? LEL It's back to partial autarky and those Yurop negroes better get with the program and ramp up their shit too.

-- @RubberBandMan

Gregor MacGregor was a but Scottish who served as an officer in the Peninsular War against Napoleon. He fought as a filibusterer in Venezuela's war of independence and spent the next several years operating against Spain on behalf of them and Gran Columbia. He even briefly captured Amelia Island to create the short lived "Republic of the Floridas"

After suffering several defeats, MacGregor returned to Britain and became one of the most infamous conmen in history. He claimed to have created a colony in Honduras, "Poyais", that he ruled as Cacique. Claiming it was a well developed British colony, he sold fictitious government bonds and land certificates. Hundreds of people immigrated there to find an untouched strip of jungle, and only about fifty returned alive to Britain

Exposed as a fraud, MacGregor travelled to France and tried the same scheme there. Only some of his associates were convicted and he escaped to London to try smaller versions of yet the same scheme. He stayed until his wife died, then returned to Venezuela to be hailed as a hero

America could have saved the entire VVEST?

That's cool. Prediction: there will be a Chinese military base in the western hemisphere by 2050. !remindmebot 2050

-- @JimieWhales

Though filibustering took many forms over the years, it is perhaps most closely associated with the antebellum south. Walker's actions inspired many southerners to plot the annexation of new lands as slave holding states. In an era where northern and southern interests heavily conflicted and the admission of every new state was a political crisis in miniature, slavery supporters hoped the conquest of the old Spanish Main would give the south permanent domination in federal representation.

To that end, the Knights of the GVLDEN CIRCLE formed in 1854 as a secret society to create slave holding, American dominated republics-annexed-as-states (like how Texas had been) around a nova mare nostrum in the Caribbean. In other words, the Gulf of America before it was cool

In response to the Dred Scott decision of 1857, the increasingly extremists southerners began to advocate for full scale independence from the federal government. To this end, the Golden Circle would have become a single new country centered around Havana. Potential further conquests in South America and the Union aligned northeast and west were also discussed.

When the Civil War broke out, the GOLDEN CVRCLE more or less merged with Confederate interests and many of its members participated in the war. A radical paramilitary group called the Sons of Liberty were linked to guerilla activities in Indiana, Iowa, Ohio, and Illinois and several members were executed as spies.

The Golden Circle's fate became one with the Confederacy itself and came to an obvious end following the Civil War. That said, had the Confederacy won, it may very well have adopted the order's ideas for its long-term foreign policy,

And the people of modern Panama could be watching the Chiefs-Eagles game with a Miller Lite in hand just like us non-Spaniards right now as part of the GVLDVN CVRCLV

There were many reasons for Filibustering?

I worry that this posturing is due to the fact that they all know butt arent trying bring too much attention to the fact that WW3 really is breaking out and Canada/Greenland being annexex is a war strategy that Canada/US govt officials are preparing for. If WW3 were to break out the IS would definitely want/need to be able to have control over the panama canal fpr obvious reasons. Right now China has more control over the panama and obviously theyre gonna be on the other axis in a global war. Also Canada has been unfortunately quite infiltrated by the CCP aswell

-- @butthole

Besides that association with slavery, filibustering was also inspired by a simple desire for new lands. Filibusterers saw themselves as champions of America's "Manifest Destiny". The Texan Revolution in particular proved you truly could fill a Cathloid land with Anglo settlers and gradually transform it into a red-blooded All American good-ol'-boydom Even some of the revolutionaries of the Latin American republics were inspired by that concept to pursue their own goals against European colonialism, with Narciso Lopez having even met John L. O'Sullivan, the journoid who famously coined the term.

In the smaller, more personal scale, filibustering offered individuals the chance to have a grand old, drunken adventure and earn their glory with the boys It appealed to a sense of "martial manhood", especially for those just outside of the proper age ranges for the famous 19th century conflicts; War of 1812, Mexican-American War, Civil War, etc. The practice also offered cash flow for mercenaries and former military veterans whose careers had stalled or become ruined outright for one reason or another.

Lastly, some Americans genuinely believed in the importance of opposing tyranny and helping all of the New World to achieve total independence from the Old Thousands of Americans fought and died over the century under Latin American banners and for revolutionary conflicts entirely foreign to the US. Non-American examples of that also include Texans who fought to assist the Republic of the Yucatán and the British volunteers fighting under Simon Bolivar and Jose de San Martin.

Filibustering was never supported by Presidents not named Madison or Pierce and gradually declined into the 20th century. Of course, official American expansionism was still alive and well and the country's rising power soon saw new annexations. It is perhaps fitting that the era is bookended with the Spanish-American War and the seizure of the last of Spain's imperial, New World holdings.

I don't know who else to tell about this but I feel the need to tell someone. For reference I'm a 25 year old guy who hasn't shit himself since he was a kid. Anyway I got up this morning as usual, left the house to go to work and as I was approaching the train I felt the sudden urge to shit. I searched around for a cafe or something with a bathroom I could use but couldn't find anything. It happened in that moment of complete defeat. For a split second I thought I was farting, but no. Naturally I ran home as fast as I could, trying to hold my pants up as much as I could for fear of the shit (diarrhea) dripping further down my legs, and washed up, washed as much off of my butt, pants, thermal underwear, underwear and sweatpants I was wearing under my regular pants to protect myself from this horrible NYC cold. I texted my boss saying I "had a problem at home" and was gonna be about 45 min late. I put all my dirty clothes in a trash bag and will do laundry when I get home tonight.

I kinda need help coming up with an excuse for being late. I don't really know what to say and I do not want to tell them what actually happened.
