Given the way that science headlines are composed, I’m sure this is, if not an outright lie, then a gross exaggeration, and if neither of those, a very clever interpretation of something that is otherwise probably much more mundane than it appears.

Marten the warrior?

Gaming? I don’t see a single LED among the lot!

The day approaches.

My paternal grandma died last year. And my dad remarried in 2017.

Not really enough time for his new wife to establish much rapport.

Dad had always been a Mama’s boy and lived most all of his life clinging to his mom’s skirts anyway.

Yet when grandma died it was the new wife who casually sent me a picture taken with her phone of my grandma’s corpse in the hospital bed.

Horrifying, and very inappropriate. All of this is to say that I can relate to your situation and no, you aren’t overreacting.

It’s AI. The trend du jour is uploading a picture to ChatGPT and asking it to recreate it in Studio Ghibli style.

Yet the line south of Texas is inviolable, sacred, a proud bulwark…

You may not want to hear this but if this describes you it simply means you’re an uninteresting person.

Photopea also!

It’s great for the first few weeks , maybe a month or two.

I graduated in September, job searched through December, finally signed a contract, but I don’t start until April. I am counting down the fucking days, my dude.

Wait, I remember this kid. What video was he from again?

Jesus, man. I don’t know what it’s worth to you but I at least read the whole thing. You seem like an alright person who’s just been punted around by the failures of the US to care for its own: hiding carcinogen information, making unhealthy food the economical/convenient choice, not to mention I’m sure that navigating the health care system was a nightmare.

Two that are related to falling

猿も木から落ちる [Even] monkeys fall out of trees [too]. Just because you’re good at something doesn’t mean you’ll always get it right.

七転び八起き Fall down 7 times, get up 8. Pretty self-explanatory

How many more tests do you fucking need? The water is boiling! Get out of the pot already!

(I realize the premise of the test that this adage is based on was flawed.)

(I mean this in good humor. If it’s a sensitive topic I’ll delete)

True, got a point.
