Oh that’s true. I’ve seen a lot of cancel/call-out documents archived on IA, some of which were directed at children or had false accusations on them. It would be funny but not that surprising if all of this was over obscure Twitter drama.
It is, of course, a tragic and beautiful poem on its own, but another thing I find interesting is that it’s been translated into a ton of languages, so if you speak another language, you can see for yourself how translation changes a work: https://ifimustdie.net/
The Malay version rhymes, for some reason. And there are quite a few small changes in meaning: the line “bringing back love” is changed to “bringing back a love that had left”, presumably for the rhyme to work.
I looked it up, it’s when remote workers go on vacations without telling anyone.

He could have set it up at the start of the class using information from past years.
The “near death experience” heading being messier supports this. I imagine this was the first time that happened, so he added that in the middle of class.
That’s not what the campaign is saying. The statues are just being used as a visually striking metaphor for sexual harassment. It’s cheaper and more effective to put some placards on a statue that people are obviously paying attention to, vs spending the time to design posters that nobody will look at.
Why would knowing about taxes a few years earlier make you rebellious?
The trees on the right have artefacts on the lit parts. The sky has these nonsensical white lines that you would usually associate with the underside of clouds, except they’re not attached to any clouds. The pink fluffy clouds on the right overlap each other in weird ways.
And I think what made me immediately think AI on a first look is the strange colours. The top half uses a very warm, low-contrast palette but then you get to the bottom and suddenly there’s tons of green and blue. Not to shit on OP but it’s a very “beginning artist” choice for a work that is clearly not made by a beginning painter.
If you join any big writing community (the Reddit one most obviously) you’ll be stunned at the number of “How do I write [opposite sex]?” posts. Most of them are from men but there are a surprising amount of women making those posts too.
This is a pretty common take in Eurovision discussion boards atm.
EBU doesn’t want the controversy of taking a stance on the I/P conflict, but most Eurovision fans are pro-Palestine and a lot are threatening to boycott if Israel does compete. And KAN (which is in charge of Israel’s entry) obv doesn’t want the humiliation of a guaranteed last place and potential harassment/security issues for the musician they send. Giving Israel the boot over the song (which, if you read the lyrics, is actually pretty subtle on what it’s referencing) is a win-win for everyone involved.
Did not get that impression at all. To me it seems like basically the same thing as the “What have you done, Billy?” and “dumbest man alive” memes. Something relatably annoying followed by a hyperbolic “haha if only” response.
It’s not long term. If you read the linked article, it’s still 52 hours a week. This change just defines how those 52 hours can be distributed. So if a company really really wanted its workers to work the max hours a day for some reason it’d be 2.5 days of straight work and 4.5 days off. Which would still be miserable but significantly less absurd.
A bias I’ve noticed on a lot of social media is that a lot of people tend to assume video games are either 0 importance or heavy importance in people’s lives. Like if he gave up his console, it must mean that he sacrificed his dearest hobby for her and that’s why it’s bad. In reality it’s just as likely it was something he used a couple times a month and gave up for something more important.
I don’t think they did. I just checked. Some subs disable downvotes I’m sure but they still exist in the site as a whole.
Where does that “the eyes of a psychopathic killer” diagram on the right come from?
Energy in gen Z context means vibe.
This guy has never spoken to a gym rat or eboy LMAO. Lots of straight men love masculinity, love maintaining and enhancing their bodies, love their “corporeal existence” as he puts it.
I assume Junji Ito changed it a bit but you can read the original (translated) short story by Edogawa Ranpo here: https://pseudopod.org/2021/08/21/pseudopod-771-the-human-chair/
I love the way their coats are drawn. They look so fluffy.
