@furutanitomomi He's cute! I wish your family well.

【ご報告】 この度、第二子となる男の子を出産しました。 今回の出産は私自身の身体の問題で「無事に出産までたどり着けるかわからない」と言われ、不安な気持ちを抱えて過ごしていたため、ご報告が出産後となりました。 二人の母親になるなんてまだ信じられませんが力を合わせて歩んでいきたいです✨

@Thuso1Africa Hey, it's not our fault that no matter how many billions Europeans have spent or wars they and the US has fought to stop slavery, Africans just wont stop selling each other.

Slavery was far worse than the holocaust

The making of iconic HBO’s 1982 intro and the final result is still mind-blowing.

This is funny no matter how many times you see it.. 🤣

@HeavyMetalInk Why is that first lady wearing pants on her head?

@aakashgupta I bet they use that Dyson Sphere to boil water, to turn a turbine, to make electricity...

The universe is a time machine and the math on the distance ladder will break your brain. 2,000 light-years gets you Rome. Go to 500 light-years and you're watching the Black Plague consume Europe in real time. At 80 light-years, you catch World War II. At 4.24 light-years, the nearest star system, Alpha Centauri, the light arriving right now left Earth in 2022. Someone there is watching us argue about whether GPT-4 is sentient. Now scale that in the other direction. The Andromeda Galaxy is 2.5 million light-years away. An observer there right now sees Earth before modern humans existed. They're watching early hominids figure out stone tools. They have no idea what's coming. The closest alien civilization is statistically estimated at 33,000 light-years away. They would be watching humans invent agriculture for the first time. Writing hasn't been invented yet. Cities don't exist. From their perspective, we are a species that just figured out how to plant wheat. Here's what makes the physics cruel. To actually see a human-sized object on Earth from just 20 light-years away, you'd need a telescope array roughly 100 million kilometers across. That's more than half the diameter of Earth's orbit around the Sun. To see Rome from 2,000 light-years? The optics required would be larger than our solar system. The light is real. The photons that bounced off Roman soldiers are still traveling outward at 300,000 km/s right now, carrying that information forever. The universe has a perfect recording of every moment in Earth's history, expanding in all directions at the speed of light. The problem was never distance. The problem is that no civilization, no matter how advanced, can build a lens big enough to read it.

A riddle from 1688 goes: "If a man born blind can feel the differences between shapes such as spheres and cubes,if given the ability, could he distinguish those objects by sight alone?" In 2003, the riddle was solved when five people had their sight restored through surgery. They could not.

@alphafox Also, let us mute Slippy.

Starfox - just update the graphics, and leave everything else the same:

The Moment Agassi shocked the world by telling how he read Becker’s serve.. The Details 🤯

We are investigating the incident.

Evan you might want to ask for a refund

I know this is Star Trek, but it's a great case study in leadership. Every boss eventually needs to have this talk with a senior employee at some point in their career. Sometimes you have to remind people who is in charge.

@Brizksie This was a trope I have found annoying for some time... Black heroes with electrical or tech related powers. Most are fine, how cringe depends on the writing. That said... How on Earth do they justify Miles' new powers? Electricity... Electrical swords? You know... like a spider!

Shout to Dispatch giving us 4 new Black superheroes without electricity/lighting powers 🤎

@ManaByte I'm just going to block everyone who leads with this recycled talking point and shows a decent clip from a shit movie like that's a take...

I genuinely can't understand how the current generation saw this in 2017 and said, "This sucks."

@HellaADZ You can't see the homeless shooting up, fucking and shitting on the street from 5000 feet up, retard.

Hell hole according to people from buttfuck Idaho

@_6signxxx 1 cup salted butter softened 1 cup granulated sugar 1 cup light brown sugar packed 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract 2 large eggs 3 cups all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon baking soda ½ teaspoon baking powder 1 teaspoon salt 2 cups chocolate chips (12 oz) 24 Cookies $7 to $9

Dudes will get on here and be like "poor k!ds don't deserve to have a cookie" and think they are the good guys!!!

@DanWizzzard @nxd1979 Huh, go figure...

@HighFuncGaming @nxd1979 East

Back in 2014 I was on a walking tour of Dresden and our guide kept referring to the firebombing destroying this or that building until an American girl in her 20s raised her hand to ask "sorry, who firebombed Dresden?" and the group fell so silent you could hear a pin drop

@fandompulse That take is disproven through out the entire MCU Capt. America Cannon. " I don't want to kill anyone. I don't like bullies." "There has never been another Steve Rodgers, has there?" -Zemo Falcon's refusal to even take the serum. The serum itself increasing your very nature.

CBR writer Caleb Clark on Captain America in the Marvel Cinematic Universe: "Steve’s choice to become Captain America is rooted in a fetishization of the hyper-masculine rather than an innate desire to do good for his country." Where do they find these people?

@the_Kon_chan @ShitpostRock2 This has been asked and answered. It was the right move.

No matter what people say the nuke was unfortunately the best case scenario for both the US and Japan

@TatsunokoCroi @ShitpostRock2 I lived on Okinawa for a year. This is true. The Japanese soldiers convinced the people we were so evil and the terrible things we would do to them when we started winning they threw themselves and their children over cliffs as we begged them over loud speaker to stop.

@ShitpostRock2 I heard a story about a man in 1945 okinawa being treated by US soldiers and given hot coffee for a self inflicted wound. He'd been told the US soldiers would rape and torture his family, so to save them the pain and suffering he'd killed them himself and tried to off himself.
