alt-text

A three-panel comic strip. In the first panel, a man in a suit (Alex Jones) is sitting at a desk with a banner behind him that says "Info Wars". Offscreen, someone says "Cut!! That's a wrap for today!"

In the second panel, “later”, Jones asks a green frog washing dishes "Everything ok, babe?"

In the third panel, the frog cries and demands "How long do we have to hide who we are??"

Pesticide atrazine can turn male frogs into females

Atrazine, one of the world’s most widely used pesticides, wreaks havoc with the sex lives of adult male frogs, emasculating three-quarters of them and turning one in 10 into females, according to a new study by University of California, Berkeley, biologists.

The 75 percent that are chemically castrated are essentially “dead” because of their inability to reproduce in the wild, reports UC Berkeley’s Tyrone B. Hayes, professor of integrative biology.

Interesting, that's from a real movie huh.

Waking Life (2001)

A man shuffles through a dream meeting various people and discussing the meanings and purposes of the universe.

Also - working Piped(.smnz.de) mirror.

I also highly recommend the movie, one of my all time favorites (and not because of this scene)

Yea, the movie is great as a whole. Has a lot of philosophy talk in it. The clip alone with Alex Jones makes him seem weird and empty with the rest of the movie. I guess it is framed like a dream, with a bunch of philosophers

Also, thank you for the piped mirror!
