There's fucking yaoi art on a train by my house I'm fucking losing my mind, this rules so much

Anime styled graffiti art on a train car depicting a male demon looking seductively at another man while saying "That's a good boy", with the phrase "kiss yr homies goodnight" in the bottom left corner.
Artist seems to be "Akira BPD"

NEW: Since October 2023, the IDF Spokesperson's Unit has released dozens of 3D animations illustrating alleged Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iranian sites

The style is now unmistakable: satellite zoom-ins, black & white wireframes, and red-textured houses - a new visual language of war

My non-musically inclined siblings in Hydaelyn, Estinien is playing the double bass (also called upright bass), not a cello or violin. 😂❤️
Cellos are much smaller and are played while sitting with it in front. Vilons are small enough they're placed on your shoulder and under your chin.

Very strange to see people who should know better react to a very obvious brigading operation? Like... huh?

You would not believe how many stories like this have been popping up over the last ~5 years

Not just full games cancelled—entire characters and plot lines removed or changed, leaving less time for making the *rest of the game better*, to try avoiding a small and malicious contingent of voices.

Sources: Leadership nixed it over concerns re: U.S. political climate, backlash to Yasuke

Only $300 between hunger, shelter, and my kids lives. Don't let us collapse while we call on you. Don't let our voices die. We are now in your hearts. Don't let us down and leave us lost between hunger and oppression. You are love for us.

Stephen Miller said the quiet part out loud. Trump has “plenary authority,” then suddenly went silent. Their plan wasn’t to be public yet. Clearly, someone hit the panic button in his earpiece.

It gets weirder: CNN uploaded the interview with the “plenary authority” comment edited out.

🐹 Before viral videos on TikTok or YouTube, there was Hampsterdance.

Full of dancing hamster GIFs & a sped-up tune, it became one of the internet’s first viral hits.

You can still dance to it on the #WaybackMachine ➡️ web.archive.org/web/19991222...
