California artist painted a 600-foot mural on an overpass that only comes to life when you're driving. Hit the right speed and suddenly the figures start moving. A horse runs, stretches, and turns into a bird taking flight Pretty damn cool 🤯

@ClownWorld @ListenClearly It only looks like that in videos, where the frame rate is close to the number of painted objects passed per second. Humans don’t have a frame rate.

In 1640 an English traveller wrote that Dutch blacksmiths and cobblers had paintings hanging above their forges and in their stalls He couldn't believe it A country of two million people produced an estimated five to ten million paintings that century The Dutch didn't collect art They lived inside it

@scottwhite1065 @EndWokeness @SteCK1878 nobody cares if she's bisexual. They care that she's publicly shaming others - "shame on you, shame on all of you" - calling them transphobic & saying they're "using lesbian politics as a front" by not agreeing that men can be lesbians. And she's a professor, & is applauded.

@EndWokeness @SteCK1878 Why do we waste our time + attention on this crap? Who cares if this earthling likes friends with vaginas or penises. People should just live their lives + stop worrying about who likes or doesn't like what they do I don't care what people do. Its not my business or concern

@ImmerUtz @Rothmus yeah I'm agreeing, it's "prices" meaning, how much work is worth doing. Nothing's perfect, sure, but that's irrelevant when you're looking at very doable things (or the joke, useful offers). Principles are mostly words, redefine & manipulate. Ethics still matter.

@3640project @Rothmus And by this you're just negotiating the price, too. Which was his point: It's not about principles; it's about the price-tag. And since it wasn't calculated on $13, but on the batch-price which would have surpassed the annual cost of insurances (200k), his question was spot on.

@ImmerUtz @Rothmus Yeah, the old joke ignores the main aspect of prostitution, constant sex w multiple men. If she only had sex once w 1 man & then was set, the worst part of the gig wld be erased. I mean, it's semantics-sure, it's just prices. No car is perfect but 13$ is too low to ignore

@Rothmus He's absolutely correct - it's the same as with the old joke: "Would you have sex with me for 1 million dollars?" "Yeah, maybe." "Would you have sex with me for 1 dollar?" "No! WHat do you think I am?!" "This we already established - now we're only arguing about the price."

OMG ! How infuriating! 911 Operator: Ma’am, I understand there’s an emergency… but first—what’s his favorite color? Caller: “WHAT?!” 911 Operator: Stay with me. What size jeans does he wear? Skinny? Relaxed fit? This is critical. Caller: “HE’S LITERALLY—” 911 Operator: Ma’am, I cannot dispatch help until I know his Instagram handle. Is it private or public? Verification matters. Caller: “ARE YOU SERIOUS?!” 911 Operator: Very. Also, how many eyelashes are on his left eyelid? Not the right—focus. Caller: “HE NEEDS HELP NOW!” 911 Operator: And I need answers, ma’am. What’s the mileage on his car? Last oil change? Favorite fast food order? We’re building a profile here. Caller: “OH MY GOD—” 911 Operator: Ma’am, please stop crying and be useful. Does he prefer Pepsi or Coke? Blood type? Zodiac sign? Rising moon?? Caller: “SEND HELP!!!” 911 Operator: I will, as soon as you confirm—does he still have a VCR? Anyone in the home with a fax machine? Backup landline?? Caller: “THIS IS INSANE!” 911 Operator: Ma’am, calm down. Panic doesn’t help. Now… what’s his WiFi password? And spell it slowly. Ridiculous!! Smh

@ImAureus @D1Br7ne @komzy22 I don't want superman, I just want some nuance, relatability or intrigue.. I liked Uncut Gems. This was just too long, not funny, & almost every person in the movie was so flatly unlikeable that I simply could not care. (I didn't expect a sports movie about ping pong)

@D1Br7ne @komzy22 Its like uncut gems but in a much bigger world. A lot of people dont like it cause Marty is a piece of shit and they cant root for him, as if every protagonist is supposed to be superman. If you go into it not expecting that its gonna be a sports movie about ping pong its a 10/10

@SwishaShock I've seen 4 of the performances nominated & wld put Chalomet last. He plays a boring, unlikeable character who barely goes through any kind of arc. There's little to act. He's a con man, so be a little skeezy - he does - & a little charming- nope. Very forgettable.

@3640project @Rational_Raven @ksorbs 1. It’s not a “belief”. It’s a fact. DNA proves it’s human. DNA proves it’s NOT part of the mother. The heartbeat proves it’s alive. 2. No. If she kills *herself*, that’s HER body. She has no right to kill someone else though.

@T0dd_Lester @Rational_Raven @ksorbs and it's not at all comparable to rape. It's more like putting a dog down. Not the greatest choice to have to make, sometimes even a poorly made or regrettable choice, but still morally acceptable, and most of the time a very reasonable decision.

@3640project @Rational_Raven @ksorbs Here’s the thing - abortion is so immoral and so evil, that nobody (and I mean NOBODY) can make a rational argument for it. It is just as idiotic and absurd as someone trying to make the argument for why rape should be ok.

@T0dd_Lester @Rational_Raven @ksorbs As I said before you see "human rights" as inherent while I see a social agreement. That agreement is called citizenship in the modern world, but can be tribal, familial or something less official. The point is, there have to be people who agree to take responsibility for you.

Go Blue!@T0dd_Lester·
@3640project @Rational_Raven @ksorbs The claim that citizenship dictates whether you’re a human with the right to life. If that wasn’t your argument, why did you mention it 2 or 3 times? No reason to bring that up if it wasn’t your argument. You know damn well it was. Why the lies?

@T0dd_Lester @Rational_Raven @ksorbs You are not listening to the primary argument. Native Americans are not living inside and dependent on my body 24/7. (Also, I imagine they'd disagree that their tribes had no group coherence but whatev) The point was, rights begin at birth. What goalposts have moved?

@3640project @Rational_Raven @ksorbs You keep moving the goalposts every time your lack of logic/reason is pointed out. Under your new claim, it would be ok to murder every Native American since they NEVER had “citizenship” of ANY nation pre-1776. But we both know that’s idiotic and untrue.

@thewetwombat @Iam_Awaken_ @Real_Ames It seems pretty obvious why it's useful for emergency workers to have more info! Maybe she cld have been more gentle but people who work in emergency care need info fast & are used to disasters. It was not irrelevant or infuriating, just fact-focused instead of therapeutic.

@Iam_Awaken_ @Real_Ames Unfortunately, it was a collision of two individuals who were BOTH handling the interaction very poorly. The caller sounded like someone who had been taught to question authority and the 911 operator failed to keep her calm and explain why the questions were important.

@T0dd_Lester @Rational_Raven @ksorbs illegal aliens a) don't demand 24/7 work from the body of an individual and b) were recognized as belonging to some nation or other when they were born. That's why they can be deported rather than killed if they're unwanted. Try deporting a fetus.

@3640project @Rational_Raven @ksorbs Illegal aliens aren’t a citizen of the U.S. - so you’re openly stating they can be legally murdered? Your arguments are failing because they are so irrational.

@yoprotagonico @ElJefeTwoloom @Promythious It's not just "does bad", it's that he's an uninteresting jerk. There's potential in the idea of having a random but useless talent, but at least make him relatable or multi layered or intriguing or .. something? Adam Sandler was way more nuanced in Uncut Gems
