  • This is 100% the reason for the documentary in the first place. Quote from the director:

    My dream would be that when people watch it, they take flat Eartherism as an analogy to something they believe in, because it's so easy to demonize another group or another person for something they think but you're kind of just as guilty if you do that.

    These are humans, people that are missing something in their lives, and this community and their "secret knowledge" grants them that.

    I see the SovCit movement as exactly the same thing, but when one digs deep enough, maybe one finds the same in the fanatical MAGA crowds, and in the most fervent religious people, and it's not a coincidence that there's an overlap in membership between these groups...

  • Mikhail Kalinin, an electric locomotive engineer, captured this photograph of a blue tit that appears to be sending smoke signals as it endures sub-zero temperatures in a park.

    Jump

  • What am I to do with the information that Mikhail Kalinin is an electric locomotive engineer? In what ways did this play into the photograph? Is there something to the framing, to the composition, to the technique used to capture the image that is remarkable because of the creator's background in electric locomotive engineering?

    I'll be pondering on this for the rest of my days, thanks.

  • Spain urges EU not to weaken 2035 combustion engine ban, letter shows

  • It was also a push for less pollution/environmental benefits.

    But the fucking automakers in Europe were sleeping on their asses, and didn't believe thar electric cars could work or that people would buy them.

    Then came Tesla and bitchslapped the whole lot of them, proving that it does work, and by the time they started realising they needed to actually do something, you had the Chinese pumping out awesome cars at literally half the price that the EU can make them, and now they're scared shitless.

    I get that letting the EU car industry die is the beginning of the end for Europe, but the answer isn't prolonging gas cars, it's subsidising the industry in a smart way, so they can compete.

  • But even the "plain" pringles, I swear they used to be tasty as sin. Nowadays they feel like I'm chewing sawdust crackers or something...

  • yoooo

  • Of course! The smooching had me giggling like a teenager.

    But also, I'm so impressed by just how much stage presence Christian Boyle and Jeremy Jordan have! I'm not dissing anyone, far from it, I love the whole cast so much, but those two are made for live acting, they have this bigger than life quality or something.

  • What utter bullshit is this? Are you that ignorant, or are you intentionally misrepresenting history? In either case, you need to shut your mouth.

    Fascism is a far-right political ideology. Let explain to you what it is composed of, its beliefs:

    It is authoritarian: no democracy, no elections, only one single party led by one charismatic fugure. This usually comes with the "cult of the Leader".

    It is ultranationalist: people from that nation (or race) are considered "supreme", that others are inferior and even "subhuman", and usually comes with a narrative that they are being attacked (despite being dominant).

    It is repressive: political opposition is suppressed, the media is attacked and "put under control", and individual freedom and rights are taken away to maintain social order and ensure the absolute authority of the state.

    It is totalitarian: state must control all aspects of public and private life, including the economy and culture, abusing propaganda and censorship.

    This is what America is turning into RIGHT NOW. Not so in the late 30s, when Americans were coming out from the Great Depression, and when its values were literally opposed to all of these.

  • In that lady's defense, some people seem to have their internal monologue tuned to the wrong frequency, and usually blurt it out instead.

  • Im not crying YOU'RE crying

  • That's anthropomorphism.

    Dogs don't need some long, heartfelt apology. They're pretty good at understanding humans, they've been around us for millennia after all, and most people instinctively know how to convey to their dog that they're not being aggressive - the dog quickly understand it was an accident.

    The big apology, the tears, etc that's for us, to make us feel less bad about having hurt them. They don't need it, but they will gladly take the cuddling and petting, so no harm there. :)

    This verse, he talks about leaving the rock again. Well, the relationship, obviously. "Feeling the sun on his beak", the beak is, obviously, a phallic symbol. It's his penis.
