ZombiFrancis,

Did they draw or AI this up or is this just some degen anime with nazi and soviet waifus they’re using for the meme template?

ZombiFrancis,

I don’t think its genius and yes, I can blame them for doing it.

ZombiFrancis,

“Egg in toast”.

We were a creative family.

ZombiFrancis,

Being charitable I think he means the Pope and Jesus alike had to watch themselves in light of political officers of Rome and such.

ZombiFrancis,

A lone puff of sandy dust enters the mechanism…

ZombiFrancis,

“Hexbear”

I’ll leave the rest to the downvoters.

ZombiFrancis,

Trump would denounce Israel, even as a lie, to win the White House.

ZombiFrancis,

You don’t though. The druids and tieflings kill each other under a few circumstances and the goblins just clean up after. Din’t have to kill anyone to get Minthara recruited.

However it is still exclusive to having Halsin, Wyll, and Karlach as party members, which is certainly a tradeoff.

So… even a ‘good’ version where you recruit her isn’t insane. Not to mention the circumstances of recruiting her are compatible since it involves mind wiping.

But I do love how she takes zero fucking responsibility for anything up to that point because it makes her a much more interesting character than your average villain redemption arc.

Now you do have to agree to some genocide to bang the drow lady, but that’s a separate issue.

ZombiFrancis,

It doesn’t really work when the criticism is flat earthism or holocaust denial, but sure. Vigilance.

ZombiFrancis,

I had a $20 to the korean lady who buzzes my head. The $5 tip for the $15 haircut is easier than navigating change. Keeps the flow moving ao she can just yell next and we’re good.

ZombiFrancis,

I think the only people who can be defensible over American style tipping in this day and age are people with an uncommon degree of wealth and are patrons of specialty boutiques who likely never frequent places operated by your average wage earner.

So you know, wine country vegan artisan type shit. The $800 dollar hair salon appointment holders. The $60 dollar tequila shot buyer.

And while they can be defensible over their tipping, it often is the case they themselves are not defensible in their economic participation.

ZombiFrancis,

That is part of the calculus people are making when they express the idea they won’t vote for candidate A for reasons X and candidate B for reasons Y.

It is how voters can express their political will during the primary and electoral process. If a candidate can modify their position on X or Y because of voter concerns, that would be a meaningful part of the democratic process influenced by the voters. They’re trying to forge that alternative.

The real unfeasible alternative is actually just doing nothing and letting the donors buy their selected policies and voting for the lesser evil between them. That is just supporting the status quo.

ZombiFrancis,

And they’ve been united and independent that whole 111 years! Right?

Right?

ZombiFrancis,

Ah man Company of Heroes. That’s a community of a kind. Used to be involved with patching and mapmaking. Lelic.

As I remember it the issue with CoH2 that BadComedian (and others who groaned at Relics attempts to make a campaign) had was more that the Soviet campaign focused a little too much on the Soviet Union being bad and not enough on the whole Nazi Germany invading.

Which was an awkward thing because the CoH series was pretty politically whitewashed as far as WW2 can go.

So when you have this sort of sanitized germany invading, and the campaign is all “grr atrocities under Stalin” it just felt off. Whatever merits the story might’ve had, it just didn’t work for a series that easily could’ve stamped a “patriotic defense of the nation from an invader” on the campaign and then put much needed time on fixing the design flaws with the commander system.

(Tl:dr the campaign was garbage anyway and the devs shouldve focused on multiplayer)

ZombiFrancis,

“Now” is the time? For fuck’s sake it has always been the time. Smaller artists have always lived and died by the donation.

If you’re approaching this from thinking AI is the problem: it has the potential to put the menial grunt labor of production art out of work. A lot of low level employees grinding backgrounds to earn resume points will have a hard time.

But moreso: it can put a wage earning artist in a position of art director for their own productions. Albeit currently said artist would need a specialized skillset of working with AI image generation. And not everyone wants to be a mini art editor or art director. It does have real threatening consequences for an industry.

Nonetheless the definition of what it means to be an artist is a fluid and dynamic concept. Maybe portfolios for art school won’t be a selection of painted works on canvas and instead an individually developed and trained checkpoint model for AI generation.

ZombiFrancis,

Yeah there’s the original barn frame there, but them additions got additions.

What is good to eat when you have no appetite?

I am super sick right now and haven’t eaten much in a few days. It’s getting to the point where I am gonna need to force myself to eat something to keep my strength up but everything just sounds terrible to me right now. I have been subsisting mostly on small glasses of milk and the occasional packet of instant oatmeal....

ZombiFrancis,

Fresh fruit tend to be what I can consume without an appetite or even while nauseous. Melons and berries usually, but sparingly if I haven’t had much else of substance.

ZombiFrancis,

Didn’t use twitter or discord much at all. Switched to lemmy from reddit entirely no pain. Still use Youtube.

However my access and consumption to anything on twitter, a discord channel, or Youtube is probably through Lemmy to begin with.

ZombiFrancis,

Pretty much. It is a feedback loop.

ZombiFrancis,

I mean this is basically how nobility ever justified claims to various thrones and titles throughout history.

ZombiFrancis,

At a certain point, you’re gonna have to stop bettin’ on the cum.

ZombiFrancis,

Step one: Throw away moral compass.

ZombiFrancis,

Don’t worry, there are plenty of kids (and adults) with plenty more than that who didn’t have to go on YouTube and/or work for it.

ZombiFrancis,

Iceland and Uruguay got those numbers tho.

ZombiFrancis,

I felt that way after Spiderman 3.

Jazz hands!

ZombiFrancis,

Well I hope they manage to keep that weight off. 10kg is a lot, good on them.

ZombiFrancis,

A year is a really long time. Many things could happen between now and the 2024 election, including the natural deaths of either of the front running candidates.

ZombiFrancis,

The camo toilet seat cover really hammers home the Wisconson DIYer feel.

ZombiFrancis,

There are communities around Lemmy dedicated to “just making lists” of leftists who also consider a middle school anarchist using an emote of Stalin as supporting genocide.

As far as I have been able to discern: a lot of reddit transplants got called nazis by established lemmy communities, so there’s kind of this whole weird internal Lemmy movement to try define ‘tankie’ as widely and negatively as ‘nazi’.

I mean, you’d think OP would know what instances they would want to block from, you know, using Lemmy. They seem to know what is ‘cringe’, but want or need that anti-leftist qualifier for good measure.

ZombiFrancis,

It depends on who is using it more than anything. In many respects it says more about the user than who it is directed at.

It runs the gambit in how its used on Lemmy.

ZombiFrancis,

Isn’t WoW 20 years old now? I remember beta testing it and the server tests and then never really got into it.

Wild to think Blizzard has managed to milk and resell it so much.

ZombiFrancis,

Also the Eastern Front. And Czech lands. The Sudetenland. Austria.

It’s like, the thing that they did.

ZombiFrancis,

Ah the comfortable Democratic Party position of telling its voters what they have to support because the GOP exists.

ZombiFrancis,

The structure and hierarchy of the United States is one where we are never one election away from being a christofascist state.

Our christofascist state has been being built brick by brick over the last few generations. The slow crawl of it across local governments and building into state governments has been ongoing. Their entrenchment’s ultimatr goal means that final election won’t matter.

The rather slowly revitalizing labor movement, exemplified by the UAW strikes especially, is a culmination of resistance against the corporate rule that established the conditions and cultivated the movement as a convenient tool to secure profits and erode organized labor.

So the fight for unions against corporate hegemony is one and the same as fighting such christofascism in the United States.

ZombiFrancis,

The real shortage Ukraine faces isn’t weapons, it is manpower.

And that will ultimately what the West will have to contribute.

Did American History X foreshadow the resurgence of white nationalism in the US? (www.bbc.com)

A brilliant film emerged from these skirmishes – but its core insight still takes work to unpack. For generations, a persistent myth that black families were irreparably broken by sloth and hedonism had been perpetuated by US culture. Congress’s landmark 1965 Moynihan Report, for example, blamed persistent racial inequality...

ZombiFrancis,

My grandma wrote letters to American GIs deployed in Europe during the second world war. She kept the letters she got back.

There were letters outright praising Hitler and hoping the allied powers would take up the fight against the Reds.

ZombiFrancis,

Shrinkflation isn’t just for meatspace products.

ZombiFrancis,

“People with only $100 to spend are still only spending $100 on things! And we raised prices and everything!”

ZombiFrancis,

Based on 30 minutes of looking around the instance I didn’t see anything immediately indicative of CSAM. A lot of lolis and sexualized images but no obvious sexual pornographic content of that nature. Just the standard anime trope of everyone either appearing childlike or having absurdly exaggerated sexual organs.

So I woyld think there is a very loose definition of CSAM being used.

Now, I did see a discussion thread for Samurai X, which, fine I guess, but if I saw a Lost Prophets appreciation thread in a music community it would raise an eyebrow.

Hopefully the situation can clear things up between the two instances.

ZombiFrancis,

Some of those people are just burner accounts for the purpose of sending a specific message.

ZombiFrancis,

Some mother’s child every last one of them.

ZombiFrancis,

Darktide forever.

…and also Morningthaw because carebear experience with my brother.

ZombiFrancis,

Standing in Arwic spamming “plz help get 2 crater” until someone made you a vassal in exchange for running you past monouga cottage to the Bandit castle area portal and escort to and through crater pathway…

ZombiFrancis,

Most often the case, depending on location/us state whatever system installed for pooping in that shed is a health code liability and therefore a financial burden.
