There also wasn’t a whole lot Tokyo left. If you make your houses of tightly connected wood and paper, and the enemy has fire bombs, you end up a hundred thousand corpses, and 40 square kilometers of ashes.

So it may be that Jesus looked like an Italian

Who were, incidentally, also not white untill very recently. Even a hundred years ago, a lot of people didn’t consider Italians to be white people.

Holy shit that’s amazing.

“What colour was John the Baptist?”

Well, most people there are brown, so brown!

“Uhh, then what colour is Jesus?”

The fuck you mean by that? He’s Jesus!

Candy gem rings so you could combine having sugar at all times of the day with your love of eating lint

Ew, ai slop

And to make sure the next 50 meters downwind doesn’t end up watertower-coloured.

Now now, this isn’t a car.

That’s some extra cheap NERA they’ve got on that tank

Blyat armor?

Is that the one with the utter irreplaceable french optics, and fictional hard-kill system?

but you still have to get the things to burn with fossil fuels.

Well, the people selling coal are telling me solar is bad, and they’re renting 61 out of 17 available rooms in my tower.

Covid was a force of nature, it wasn’t intentionally malicious to even its own nations goals, like the republican party is today (because no, it’s just trump, it’s the entire party and they’ll happily continue after the next election).

Yeah, if you’re not running (at least) two clients, you’re playing eve wrong.

I saw a survey of small town watertowers in the US. There were a terrifying amount of dead birds in there, and living birds shitting.

Most cannonballs were quite small, the really big ones, the 32 pounders, have a 16cm diameter.

Carrots actually ARE good for your eyes*

*: carrots contain beta-caroteen, which your body turns into vitamin A. Eating insufficient vitamin A will cause worsening eyesight and especially night blindness.

It’s not common in Europe now, since vitamin A is common in animal products and gets put into everything vegetarian too, but people growing up in the early 20th century would absolutely have known about this problem.

Eating more carrots absolutely will NOT give you super night vision eyesight. Or on-board radar.

AI companies are completely unable to afford to keep running, and I’d be incredibly surprised if they’re still seriously around in 2028

Oh yeah, but the new guy will make sure to grease the wheels a bit more. The squeeze wheels gets defenestrated.

Yeah, but I mean, as much as I hate Russian oligarchs, I’d much rather see a bunch of new dachas on the black sea than improved defenses along the border.

They might simply have put him on trial for the crime of being caught. Corruption is fine, being seen doing corruption is not.

I am, however, a big fan of shooting billionaires. Into space, or otherwise.

Saves a lot of money if you worry about the followup later.
