To me, the giveaway is the weird facial evolution. Why would she listen to it with an angry face and then get happy? An actual person would give the first frame a surprised expression

The Redeemer, and yes, it was always awesome to find and shoot, except when someone manage to fire it off during flight

DENIED

I've had a few opportunities to play Red Alert 2 with my dad. He always obliterated me, I was too much of a turtle player.

There was one time I won against him, but it was pretty obvious to my 14yo ass that he let me. I asked and he just smiled.

I should probably challenge him sometime nowadays

Those shadows are still eating up your GPU

God, I hope that comes soon. Like, tomorrow soon

In short, it was one of the most spectacular disasters in the history of music festivals. The advertising showed that even the cheapest tickets would get some fancy rooms. Sold out quickly, but all the money was nowhere near enough to even pay for the stage + performers. The island didn't have housing and they "improvised" some tents for the attendees (they used relief tents like those you see in displaced populations). No food, no water, no bathrooms.

You see atrocities, usa govt sees free military bases near lots of oil reserves

You should ask for the OG green lantern ring, just magic

And deodorant

I won't read the entirety of Huxley's BNWR because I'm at work and that's gonna take some time (though it looks like it'll be damn worth it)

I wonder how he'd react to the current world, on how social media and corporate internet have isolated people within echo chambers and feed us nonstop slop. Neil Postman's book just got bumped to "next to read" for me, though it'll be a while until I finish The Dawn of Everything

Nothing is original these days. Smh

I think the "i have no mouth but I must scream" jokes will get old real quick

Just yesterday I saw a post on lemmy that said that turkish xitter users were migrating to bluesky. Didn't bother opening to see the comments or read it. Seeing this now, all I can think is "well, what did they expect?"

I've heard people complain a lot about its resource usage on the server side, that the advantages of it running on elixir are moot unless the instance has over 1k people. The web UI leaves a lot to be desired, true, but at least it's not such a client-side resource hog/browser crasher as misskey/sharkey

Last panel has strong Carl vibes

I feel like a celebrity now 🤩

Hard to belle-ieve

He's quite literally Farquaad, even the hairdo

There's quite a discussion about that further elsewhere in this thread. To me, the combination of vector-like thick lines with that background color, the characters having such mute expressions and there not being one actual optimist.

Others also pointed to the "weirdness" that is the lines of the characters' arms becoming part of the table, which I didn't notice at first.

Perhaps more importantly, it does not look like the "author" has "zero drawing skill", but actually knows how to make vector art, even if relatively simple. That makes the problems more glaring
