I had an old slider phone when I was working in the bush one winter. It was stuck in the chest pocket of my coat, and SOMEHOW it dialed 911. I only noticed because I could hear the weird clicking of the operator recording the call. Funny how that stands out in a forest, and not your own breathing, or the chatter of your crew mate.

Dont even get me started. I use an example of how the Eden Project cost half of what my local arena cost when providing a guest lecture at my university. Eden took an old mine and converted it into a facility that educates and acts as venue and has brought in 1.5 Bn quid to the economy since it opened in 2001.

I'm not, I'm just saying people immediately think AI on anything suspicious, when people have been doctoring photos since the advent of photography. Before shop, there were double exposures.

This is the most toxic male behavior ever. It has all the hallmarks - arrogance, insecurity, and enough 'subtly' to seem 'ok' at first, only for it to be turned into something terrible

It's photoshopped.

Back, long before you were even a twinkle in your dad's eye, people used to edit photos manually...

So I went looking after, and this is the earliest image of it I can find which predates AI image Gen.

You all forget that before AI us geezers used to Photoshop things.

Now get the fuck off my lawn

Slrpnk.net isa dat-a-way (⁠☞゚⁠∀゚⁠)⁠☞ my guy. Come join us as this take fits well. This is pretty much my take on humanity. However, hope is rebellion against the system. Don't give up.

You must be younger, because this diagram is spot on for me

Blast it, how do I pin a comment... I just get stupid mod options to nuke it. This needs to be put on the fridge.
