The phrase you’re asking about is a play on words and internet slang. Here’s a breakdown:
-
Rizzler: This term refers to someone who has “rizz,” which is slang for charisma or the skill of attracting the opposite sex.
-
Fanum Tax: This is an internet slang term that means stealing someone’s food or being entitled to some of it. It’s often used humorously online.
-
Beta: In internet slang, a “beta” often refers to someone who is perceived as lacking confidence or assertiveness, often contrasted with an “alpha” who is seen as dominant or confident.
-
Rizzness: This is a play on “rizz,” referring to the quality of being charming or attractive.
So, the phrase “Catch a lowkey beta a fish, and you can Fanum tax him” means that if you help someone who is less confident (a beta) by giving them a fish, you can then take some of their food (Fanum tax them). The second part, “Teach a beta to fish, and you destroy a top-tier rizzness opportunity,” suggests that by teaching them to be self-sufficient, you lose the chance to show off your own charm or attractiveness.

- Comment on Krebs throws himself on the grenade, resigns from SentinelOne after Trump revokes clearances 6 days ago:
“Krebs, through CISA, falsely and baselessly denied that the 2020 election was rigged and stolen, including by inappropriately and categorically dismissing widespread election malfeasance and serious vulnerabilities with voting machines,” the presidential missive. This despite the complete lack of credible evidence of any voting irregularities or inaccurate results in the 2020 election of Joe Biden as president.
Trump sure likes his revenge. I wonder when people will start falling out of windows.

Soon it became dangerous to download the movie, though, as popular demand for the movie quickly put a target on downloaders’ backs and scammers soon planted malware in Spider-Man movie torrents that ReasonLabs reported used the movie to “lure in as many victims as possible.”
ReasonLabs said that the malware was “likely from a Russian torrenting site.” It took over the would-be Spider-Man movie watchers’ computers without setting off Windows Defender and with the goal of cryptomining in the background for the bad actors’ benefit.

Nice explanation. However I’d argue the bottom right panel is different because the right hand door is the back door of the car, and therefore, different to frames 2 and 3.

I don’t doubt your experiences. However I worry about things like Pressreader that require a subscription or any sort of DRM or security.
I have the meebook 7 and mostly use Moon reader.
- Comment on 2,000 year old book about Roman emperors enters bestseller charts 1 month ago:
Sex scandals and foreign policy failures don’t only beleaguer the modern politician, it turns out: in the early second century, the scholar Suetonius chronicled the dramas of the first set of Roman emperors, and now, their indiscretions and eccentricities have been dug up in a new translation which is proving popular in bookshops.
The Lives of the Caesars, translated from Latin by The Rest Is History podcast co-host Tom Holland, made the Sunday Times hardback nonfiction chart this week. Publisher Penguin Classics said that the book is the first of their hardback nonfiction classics to appear on the list.

Yep, how can the benefits of competition and reward play out if there’s no punishment for failure.
