Can we just show him the footage from the 50's and say it's new? I am pretty sure he wouldn't be able to tell the difference.
Screen shot of an article talking about how the president wants test nuclear weapons... Yeah, this guy is really showing us how much he really wants that peace prize

I open up my weather app this morning and....
Negative zero, I will need the math people to explain this one to me (jk)
Screenshot of my weather app showing a high of 12°c and a low of -0°c, yes you saw correctly.... Negative zero. I know it's been a hit minute since I have been in a math class, but I swear I remember being told that wasn't possible.

Facebook let me know it was nine years ago that this precious angel joined the family and we have been cherishing every moment.
Photo of Sir Nigel, my cat, taken back in 2016 when we rescued him. He is being held in the arms of my partner. He was just a kitten, only around 4 months old Sir Nigel, nine years older and and just as precious. He is sitting on my lap as we both enjoy relaxing out on the shaded balcony

This is the kind of thing you say when you only have a puddle deep understanding of Lee's life. Dude was many things, but none of which he describes here.
Screenshot of a post made by Matt Walsh that reads: "Robert E Lee was a man of great honor and integrity - qualities that his modern critics can't comprehend. He was given the choice between taking up his sword against his home and community and family, or standing beside them in battle. He chose the latter. Any reasonable person can understand why he made that choice."

Why not sell? Well unless you really want to do what this guy is joking about, selling such an item will good chance attract.... Specific groups of people... And ultimately you're going to just be feeding a bad ideology.(5/X)
Screenshot of a person's response to OP's original question that reads Question: "Post it for sale at $1000. If anyone reaches out to buy it, dox them. /s"

I saw this post on threads, and since my profile there is set on private I cannot reply to this person's question. Since the greater 80% of my post high school education focused in the study of History, and big portion of that WW2 history, I have some thoughts here I would like to share (1/X)
Screenshot of a threads post that reads Question: "I inherited some old military pins and medals and such from a relative who passed recently and one of them is a nazi pin. (Assuming it's a "spoils of war?) And my gut reaction is to destroy it. What's the proper thing to do?"

Yeah, still not for sure I want to go back just yet, scaling back≠eliminating. Duolingo dress themselves as an educational app, and AI has no business in education so far as I see it, honestly it has no place in academia but that is another story.
Ground news summary of what news articles are saying about Duolingo "scaling back" their use of AI in the language App. Important to note they are only reversing course because of the backlash. Articles seen to suggest that this reversal means they "value" human roles, but the fact that they wanted to eliminate human roles in the first place suggests otherwise.

@swilua.bsky.social I have a Welsh question, given that there's not a lot of context here wouldn't the last 2 responses be equally correct since one says "I like coffee" and the last says "I don't like Coffee"?
Duolingo screen shot with a single blank no context speech bubble with the options: 1) dych chi'n hoffi coffi, 2) Dw i'n hoffi coffi 3)Dw I ddim yn hoffi coffi

Okay that was a fun read, my favourite bit
Screen shot from the above mentioned article that reads: "The Tesla quarterly earnings report showed the company’s auto revenue fell 20%, so now Musk has to take time away from running our country like he runs his car business – into the ground – so he can focus on running his car business further into the ground."

Looks very close to my cozy kitty, who throws a fit unless he gets lap snugs

Yeah, definitely broken...

Most definitely old news but I find it hilarious they turned off reviews for the the Gulf of Mexico, probably too help protect the fragile ego of a certain administration lol
Screenshot for google maps review section for the Gulf of Mexico showing that posting new reviews have been turned off. Most likely people complaining about turd muffin-in-chief's EO attempting to change the name of an international body of water

FamilySearch got me with the ole' bait and switch
this is a screenshot of email from Family Search saying that I "am related to" Ben Franklin. So I thought interesting... Like maybe 20th cousins 250 times removed or something? Screen shot of the website saying "we don't see a direct relationship" so I am not related to Ben Franklin, you know after sending me the email saying I was...

Narrator: he didn't actually apply for a position in this company nor did he agree to any interview
Notification on my phone from some random company wishing me luck in a job interview with them later today, when I in fact did not apply for any job.

The "hilarious" part of this is that even when a recession does come, they will deny it and the Magahats will just believe it
Ground News headline and summary of an article talking about Trump's Commerce Sycophant Lutwick claiming "there will be no; recession" I wonder if we can quote him on that

Honestly should have seen this happening...I have no doubt he will replace her with a person who hasn't even ever stepped foot in an archives.
Screenshot of a Ground News summary of announcement by Trump that he is firing the National Archivist. My note: No doubt to be replaced with someone who has zero archival experience

One with Alt text, because i posted too quickly...
News article headline stating a Wyoming "mount rushmore" bill passed committee, basically Wyoming wants to build a second Mount Rushmore to celebrate Americas 250years.

I got to go to a fun rare book store/museum. And they let me hold a book from the 1500's! Want to guess which book I am holding? (I specifically asked about this book)
