@highelven It’s pretty horseshit

the way you start warframe and whatever your initial thoughts about what the story is can never, in any shape or form, by any magnitude, ever correctly guess the truth

@KNesbitt68 Idk who you think is stupid enough to fall for any of this starting with your few month old account with fugly ai pfp

I do not blame you for doubting me, ai is so prevalent in this contest, which is a shame, but I hate ai in all forms of the matter 💞 Please think before making baseless accusations, it’s stressing people out who aren’t actually using ai

@VinSkvlly @SeanMcCarthyCom Watch the channel 5 interview, he can barely speak English

@SeanMcCarthyCom Isn't this kid genuinely mentally retarded? Like the actual definition of the term.

George W. Bush era political discourse sounds like Cicero compared to this shit

@amongiello @LinkedInLunat1c You’re a balding headshot photographer, bro shut your dipshit ass up

Yeah HR is destroying innovation. If you want a start up culture you have to citrusy test people in interviews if they want industry standard legal breaks they are doomed for mediocre results and don’t belong anywhere near your team. Reduce hours and pay pay for performance only. Let them have their breaks as their performance dwindles (or if I’d doesn’t) pay them appropriately.

I feel like this belongs here

@screamnhorror @PopBase You don’t fucking read shit

@PopBase why can’t y’all ever make her book accurate ?

First look at Mike Flanagan’ ‘CARRIE’ series. (ew.com/carrie-tv-seri…)

@wyomingiliad @DAMendelsohnNYC @dcsandbrook @holland_tom Ai written chud slop or dipshit word salad

Interesting -- Is it common for historians to rewrite Homer and fabricate things he never stated? @dcsandbrook @holland_tom x.com/wyomingiliad/s… lol hopefully you will get a chance to appreciate the individualistic genius of homer some day: The Categorical Denial of Homer as Deconstruction: The Poet and the Hero Fall Together There are two ways to doubt Homer. The modest way acknowledges the oral tradition, the dark centuries, the absence of records, and suspends judgment about the man's biography. The categorical way affirms something: that no such poet existed, that "Homer" is a fiction the tradition invented for itself, that the Iliad composed itself across generations of anonymous singers. Only the second position concerns us here, because only the second is a philosophical act rather than a historical caution — and the philosophy it enacts is deconstruction, whether or not its practitioners have read a word of Barthes. The move is the same in structure and in spirit. Barthes announced the death of the author: the text as a tissue of quotations, the writer as a mere site where language happens. Foucault reduced the author to a "function" — a name retroactively imposed to give false unity to discourse. Project that maneuver backward twenty-eight centuries and you have the categorical denial precisely: Homer as retrospective fiction, the epics as the tradition speaking itself, the individual dissolved into the impersonal system. The denial did not emerge from Parry's Yugoslav recordings. Parry proved the diction is traditional — the formulas, the epithets, the type-scenes, the stones of the building. Lord's own fieldwork was full of individual masters recorded by name; he spent years with Avdo Međedović and never mistook the man for the tradition that trained him. The leap from "traditional materials" to "no author" is not in the data. It is an imported premise, and its provenance is Paris, not Chios. What does the premise cost? Everything the poem exists to assert. The Iliad is a wager staked on the value of the singular life. Achilles is offered the trade explicitly: a long, comfortable, forgotten life, or a short one crowned with kleos aphthiton — imperishable glory. He takes the short life, and the entire moral economy of the poem hangs on whether the promise can be kept. It can be kept only by a singer. Glory is not a property of the deed; it is a compact between two individuals across time — the hero who acts and the poet who remembers. The poem itself was to be the proof of the compact: one voice carrying one name down the centuries. The categorical denial severs the compact at both ends in a single stroke. If there is no Homer, no one ever made the promise; the hero staked his life on a payee who never existed. And the severing runs deeper: if the tradition merely sang the tradition to the tradition, there was never a reason the exceptional individual should have been the subject at all. The denial of the poet entails, quietly, the demotion of the hero — the singular excellence at the poem's center becomes as much an illusion of the "author function" as the author himself. This is why the categorical denier is a deconstructionist at heart and not merely in method: the position cannot be held without dissolving the very category of individual greatness that both the poet and his hero embody. One cannot keep Achilles and lose Homer. They stand together because they are the same assertion made twice — once in bronze, once in verse. Homer anticipated his deniers, and put them in the poem. Thersites rises in the assembly of Book 2 to level the exceptional down into the mass — the ugliest man at Troy, railing against the honor of the foremost. The poem's judgment on him is swift and unsentimental. The categorical denial is Thersites' speech with a bibliography: the leveling of the singular into the collective, presented as sophistication. And the sociology writes itself. The modern academy produces knowledge the way the deniers say the epic was produced — collectively, anonymously in aggregate, through peer review and citation networks, the "literature" composing itself with no single mind credited. To scholars formed entirely within that mode of production, the authorless epic looks intuitively right because it looks like their own workplace. The lone poet who outperforms the entire subsequent history of the language is a standing rebuke to committee production. It is easier to declare him a fiction than to be measured against him. Against this stands the plain evidence of the object itself, and a historian willing to read it. Robin Lane Fox is rightly a Unitarian in the full sense: each epic a unified whole, both from a single author he is unembarrassed to call Homer. His case rests on what a scholar of Iron Age Greece is trained to weigh. The similes issue from one coherent observational world — a man who has watched lions harry cattle in the dark, a widow weighing wool to feed her children, a poppy head bent by spring rain. A cast of hundreds is managed across fifteen thousand lines without the continuity collapses that genuine multi-generational accretion produces. Above all, the architecture: the wrath announced in the first line resolved in Priam's tent in the last book; Achilles withheld from battle for two-thirds of the poem so that his return lands with annihilating force; Hector's death seeded, delayed, and paid off across the whole arc. Traditions drift. They do not design. "Swift-footed Achilles" is inherited; keeping the swift-footed man motionless by the ships for eighteen books is a decision, and decisions have deciders. Lane Fox gives the decider a time and a mechanism — a mid-eighth-century master, plausibly dictating to a scribe of the newly arrived alphabet — a man, not a mist. The final defense of the thesis is the conduct of the two positions. The Unitarian claim stands under a name, takes responsibility for its weak points, and concedes ground where the evidence demands it — as Unitarians conceded the Doloneia. The categorical denial stands under no name, concedes nothing, and speaks always as "the field," "the consensus," "the tradition." That contrast is not incidental; it is the whole matter enacted. One side argues as Achilles fought — singly, exposed, under its own name, staking something. The other argues as the mass, from which no individual can be called to account. The poem told us which of these deserves the honor, and it told us why: because everything worth remembering was done, and sung, by someone. @dcsandbrook @holland_tom x.com/wyomingiliad/s… @dominbydigdug @ObtainerOf @Hughposting @realAtlasPress @the_culturist_ @thinkingwest @KnowledgeArchiv @westernexile @HumbleFlow @TheGreatB00ks @JeremyRyanSlate @MemoryMedieval @MedievalScholar @romanhelmetguy @bronzeagemantis @AlexAndBooks_ @megha_lilly @roddreher @JoshPhillipsPhD @SpencerKlavan @andrewklavan @michaeljknowles @mattwalsh @PatrickDeneen @BarneysRubble0 @pleonidasp @WYOCathCollege @GregMcBrayer3 @alexpriou @PatrickDeneen @SeanBerube4 @alexpriou

@MarathonDevTeam Add more LTM experiment modes like team deathmatch etc At the very least the game needs a gun range to test out characters and abilities and weapons

Hey everyone, we know we've been a little quiet out here - but, as we get closer to the mid-Season 2 update, we wanted to take a chance to get the ball rolling again. Later this week we'll be sharing a blog covering some of the mid-Season 2 updates, including balance changes, details on Vault Breaker, a few much-needed weapon adjustments, and details on a buff to Cradle progression. (This blog is just a preview, and we'll have the full list of patch notes the morning of July 21st.) But, in the meantime, our ear is to the ground. We want to know what you're feeling. What's on your mind?

@nfxmyy Third world incel ass tweet lmao

honestly it baffles me me how readily women are to show their nakedness online rather than when asked privately. i’ll never get it lol.

@sean_gause Eternal is substantially worse gameplay wise with enemies that over rely on a specific mechanic to die, a poor dash implementation and a grenade that barely does anything

Hardly a hot take, I'm aware. This is saying nothing about the gameplay. I think 2016 is the weakest of the trilogy in that regard. I still love the art in Eternal and TDA of course. Just enjoyed the more "grounded" approach to 2016 (if you can call that game grounded).

@Retardfound420 @itsbewildered @TylerGlaiel It can get better, those specific specs are half of what makes a monitor good, the other half is what the panel type and panel generation it is.

@liminalMarch @itsbewildered @TylerGlaiel I have 240 hz 4k Alienwares can't get better

hate how if you ever found a really good thing that lasted you 10+ years or more its basically impossible to ever get the same thing again if you need to replace it for some reason

@Vikinghistory You have no education besides running to ChatGPT for wrong information so you can scrape for Pennies from twitter engagement

Odysseus sails home in a Viking ship. The vessel in Nolan’s Odyssey is Draken Harald Hårfagre, the largest Viking ship built in modern times. Built in Haugesund, Norway. Named after Harald Fairhair, our first king. The Odyssey is set around 1200 BC. Ships like this appeared around 800 AD. The Viking Age is closer to us today than to Odysseus. Homer’s ships were black, low, open galleys, light enough to be dragged onto the beach at night. Not a 35-meter dragon ship built for the North Atlantic. A sailing reconstruction of a Mycenaean warship already exists: the Argo, 50 oars, built in Volos, Greece. Nolan filmed in Greece. He still picked the Viking ship. This week Draken sails down the Norwegian coast to the Oslo premiere. She will be the most authentic thing on screen. She is 2,000 years off.

@TKBushleague @bla1975bla @MrJoKeR604 your conservative provincial government is inept and the reason why your health care is subpar I got several major surgeries within a week of being told I needed them in BC years ago and paid nothing

@bla1975bla @MrJoKeR604 So you can’t argue with facts cause your a clown so you try to use a gif. Lmao. Typical liberal.

No, Canadians don't think that, we're well aware of how universal healthcare works. Conservatives on this app are weirdly obsessed with putting down Canada and Canadians. Absolutely miserable people.

@TKBushleague @bla1975bla @MrJoKeR604 this categorically made up bullshit lmao

@bla1975bla @MrJoKeR604 No I’m a Canadian that pays $135,000 in taxes and have had a broken ankle for 10 months waiting in surgery. In America I’d paid $37,000 and been fixed within 8hrs
