when someone says "my dice are cursed" you sort of have to agree with them because if you say "marius you are a grown man and I know you know that's not how probability works" they won't say anything but they'll treat you like you are in league with the cursed dice

The second photo shows the saying untouched but just a small square cut from the card

the exchange rate with euro is almost 1:1, and though i don't know how much a dollar is truly worth inside the country, ~300 extra per month would be luxuriously huge for me

Panel 1: Shen is wearing a yellow artist beret and standing next to two artists, also clad in yellow and wearing yellow artist berets. One is darker skinned and has squarish curly dark brown hair, and one is lighter skinned and has straight orange hair in a bowl cut. Shen says "I'm glad we all agreed to be bad at art forever."
Panel 2: Shen points at an artist in the distance who is drawing on a canvas near a Greek statue. His eyes bulge as he yells "HEY THAT GUY'S LEARNING ANATOMY!! BEAT HIS ASS!!!" The other two artists start running towards him.
Panel 3: Shen cuts his hands around his mouth and closes his eyes tight, yelling "KICK HIM IN THE LATISSIMUS DORSI!!!"
Panel 4: The other two artists turn around and look at Shen menacingly, like two cavemen looking at an alien.
Panel 5: On the sides of the panels one of the artists is punching his palm, while the other wraps his knuckles. They are closing in on Shen, who raises his hands in caution and begins to stutter out "I-I MEAN... UM... UM"

I had to expunge my thoughts on Bluesky's current, uh, choppy waters into a proper blog post (which jay can't take down for being too mean or saying 'lol' in a threatening way)

HiPOD: Crater Gullies at Multiple Elevations

Mars’ past climate may have permitted certain processes where water initially froze and melted seasonally, allowing for the formation of polygonal terrain and gully systems.

Enhanced color cutout shows deeply incised gullies on the wall of an impact crater on Mars. There are polygonal patterns in one of the gullies. (NASA/JPL-Caltech/University of Arizona)
