Trump on Orban: "We love Viktor. You are fantastic, alright? I know a lot of people don't agree with me, but I'm the only one that matters. He's a great leader. I endorsed him the last election he had and he won by 28 points. You're gonna do even better this time when you have another election."

If you still have friends on Twitter, maybe this will convince them to junk it. The Muskrat openly bankrolling Tommy Ten-Names in the UK courts brings Lord Rothermere and the BUF to mind, only Rothermere wasn't the richest man in the world. Fascism always goes hand-in-hand with obscene wealth.

righteous ceramics at the Coca Museum in Cusco!!! So flippin' cool, AI could never!!!

An amazing sculutped ceramic at the Coca Museum in Cusco. The direct English translation of the text reads:

"PARACAS CULTURE 700 a.c y 200 d.c

A culture that had very Good Warriors, this aspect allowed them to survive for a long time. It's tissues are the most complex of this period and the most beautiful pre-Columbian textiles. The ceramics feature a portrait of a huaco with coca on the right cheek, thus leaving evidence of coca consumption"

Another ceramic sculpture in the Coca Museum in Cusco, Peru.

The direct English translation reads:

"MOCHICA CULTURE 100 ac y 700 d.c

Culture that developed in the north coast of Peru. Great ceramists portraited his daily activities, performed great contractions, Inside of its various food production also the coca was presented, as you can appreciate in this ceramic"

ok fellow #gamedev people: how do you find an #artist or #illustrator to make your capsule art for steam / icon for mobile? I am making a simple web version of Jelly Well and I need someone who can make an attractive icon image for the game! This would be a paid job ofc 👍
