Is Tron even in the latest Tron movie?

It was the same back then too I reckon. Why else would a white supremacist regime make an alliance with Japan?

It’s funny how the old media depiction of Nazis was always that they’re evil but dignified gentleman and now they’re openly just like “Hello. I’m the Anime Pedophile”

President Trump posthumously honored conservative activist Charlie Kirk about a month after he was fatally shot. Kirk’s widow, who accepted the honor on his behalf, said Kirk would have probably run for president.

We actually do reheat tea in the microwave, in the very rare event that we forget to drink it

Should have bought a butterfly knife, that's the coolest kind

If we get killed off by chatgpt, we deserved it.

I do wanna see the real graph though, that shows the AI bubble bursting and makes 2008 look like the dot com boom

Bram Stoker is a name a vampire would have...

There's no earthly reason why they aren't! And dont get me started on the microwaves that dont even have their wattage written on them somewhere. Gotta just remember or keep the instructions handy

On the box: instructions for 750 and 900 Watts

My Microwave: 825.6 Watts

Glen @vaguebiscuit.bsky.social · 12h

I still dont understand why we couldn't get a standardised Microwave wattage

It is still objectively good that the massive indiscriminate aerial bombing campaign has finally ended but that's not peace. That's not freedom for Palestinians. That's not rebuilding homes, hospitals, schools and everything else Israel destroyed. That's not ending the siege

I dont think Israel have broken the ceasefire. I don't think they started observing it in the first place

I do prefer cosmonaut to astronaut but then universe sailor is nowhere near as cool sounding as star sailor

Daniel @deargodwhatnow.bsky.social · 14h

Not a fan of the Soviet Union but you have to admit that 'cosmonaut' is just a phenomenal term. Just sublime

Maybe, but mostly he's just an utterly shameless fascist propagandist

So George from Big Brother condemned the recent rise in antisemitism which I'm guessing involved blaming pro-Palestine marches but then went on to wonder if the conspiracy theories about the world being run by a Jewish cabal had more merit to them than people might think? Fucking bigoted idiot

Painting a jet - terrorism
Setting a hotel full of people on fire - valid concerns

So…..Starmer is moving to ban protests against genocide in order to root out the tiny contingent of antisemites who take part (reminder these marches also contain a large Jewish bloc/descendants of Holocaust survivors) but won’t ban future Unite the Kingdom rallies which are explicitly Islamophobic.
