Ok... but is the picture art??? I don't think anyone would try to argue it is. Miyazaki was specifically talking about how no algorithm can produce art, and I agree.
What makes this screenshot funny is the human element, the performance! It's all ridiculous.

Their wives also left them and they couldn't figure out why.
Lmao.
Everyone is saying this is propaganda. I think its possible there's an even stupider reason.
Trump is so nakedly easy to manipulate sometimes. This might be the ego fluffing he needs to reverse the ban.
Trump's terrible politics aside:
the Republican party is pushing legislation which requires you to identify yourself to view porn
you can get around this with a VPN
proton is a VPN (nonprofit, but still).
I'll be switching email providers when I can... I can't remember when my subscription ends.
And? Does this mean he is immune to criticism because he's not Trump? This is a pretty big fuckup, even if it's an accident.
It is a reference to the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade. Gen alpha is very interested in the history of international trade and the rise of the global market economy.
I don’t understand the Democrat strategy at all
Someone else summed it up better than I can. The democratic party is doing exactly what it set out to do.
They have no interest in furthering progressive policies so they don't. That's why the DNC chair is calling Bernie Sander's critique of the party's platform bullshit right now, instead of admitting he's right.
The system is as it does.
You made this image with a green pepper? That's impressive, great work.
None of these article titles go anywhere when searched on google.
The articles from the Journal of Animal Science can't be found on this archive: link
Do you have the DOI for any of these articles?
It seems like it should be easy to find real studies showing vegan diets are bad for cats. I hope this isn't AI generated.
I tried to write the most biased scaremongering paper about microplastics for a college course and I couldn’t find much directly linking human health to microplastics that was peer reviewed.
The main paper in this article, the one claiming its human brain samples are 0.5% plastic, is preprint - not peer reviewed. So, reporting on it like this is unethical tbh.
Truthfully, scientists have been looking for this sort of link in animals, and they can’t find earthshaking evidence of it. Most of the papers I found showed weak evidence of harm to animals. Most of the scarier papers have to do with how these plastics absorb chemical pollution in sea water, fish then eat the particles and are harmed. These papers point out they have trouble separating general harm from pollution from harm from microplastics pollution.
Microplastics don’t seem to go up the food chain either, seems most plastics people eat are introduced through processing it. So, stop eating processed food. Stop wearing polyester while you’re at it, a lot of microplastics come from laundry.
I’m not saying microplastics aren’t bad for human health. It’s just incredibly hard to study and it’s definitely not as bad as lead or asbestos. If it was, scientists would have found that link already.
The worst news I ran across was that there is no human control group for this stuff. Everyone is full of microplastics. Those are the only peer reviewed human studies this article mentions - the sort that are like “Of samples from 20 different people, they were all full of plastics! We need grant money for more study”.
I hope they get that grant money.
I had this problem with Pearson. I got around it by making sure my bowser (librewolf) reported windows as my user agent. This was last semester for an online intro level course, ymmv
Edit: I see your other posts about how its not blocking access... Tbh I don't remember checking, I just remember checking my browser settings haha. Guess I didn't have to bother.
