You would think that after what happened with Pence the Orange Menace would choose better VPs. Idiots just don’t learn, do they?

Putting the mad in Mad Max!

Seymour, who reportedly had a daily rate of $150 for his translation services, lasted less than a day on the job before he was replaced.

$150 in 1977 is roughly $800 today. I don’t think he charged enough for such an epic troll.

Honor killings are a one way street.

Man kills wife for advocating for women’s rights? Halal. Allah approved.

Two girls enact revenge on their rapist? Absolutely Haram!

I also tried finding a dumb 4K TV some time ago and, yeah, they don’t exist. 4K TVs were a good tech that came out at the wrong time.

These seem intresting. Do any of you guys have one? Is it any good?

I’m bookmarking this so that when I’m feeling depressed about my lack of creativity I’ll just look at this list.

I can assure you of my intellectual capacity but there is a severe incompatibility with cognitive functions on this day.

Welcome to Las Vegas Belfast!

Black and Tans intensifies

Henry would’ve been proud!

I can see the angle you’re coming from. I enjoyed Fall of Hyperion but not nearly as much as the first book. As for Dan Simmons himself, I’ve only vaguely heard about his political views. I compare it to Frank Miller’s legacy in that they’re both creatives who have a back catalog of celebrated works that is juxtaposed by their reactionary viewpoints.

It was the only one I read but I say it anyways: The Fall of Hyperion by Dan Simmons.

If audiobooks are considered reading then I will include I, Robot, Foundation and Empire, amd Herbert West - Reanimator.

Any snapshot from Morrowind.

So, I did some very basic reverse image searching with Google Lens and, as others of pointed out, it seems to have originated from Facebook. More specifically, it originates from some kind of copypasta first posted on Sept. 15th of this year by user Hashem Al-Ghaili. This same copypasta later appears in two other places: in Turkish (twice) and again on someone’s Linkedin post. Since many (myself included) suspected this to be AI generated, I ran this through AI image detector sightengine. Now, AI detection tools are very flawed so I took the results with a grain of salt. Nonetheless, It came back with a 99% chance of it being AI generated with Midjourney being the most likely candidate for its creation.

What’s the likelyhood this gets killed?

I find it strange how racist and ultra-nationalists ideas have taken root in Russia when its predecessor (USSR) defeated the Nazis and prided itself in its ethnic diversity. Compare that to the US where its long history of racism since the beginning has allowed the formation of racial and ethnic tensions.

Bookmarking for inspiration. This is definitely going to be a future project.

Can someone explain the disparity between Australia’s and New Zealand’s use of antibiotics in meat?

I see Costco as simply a place to buy groceries but I got to give them credit for not giving into culture war bullshit.

I like your descriptive writing style!
