Huh now that you mention it, I didn't notice that the logo is reversed, but it makes perfect sense because it's supposed to be on the top side of the parachute. GOAT level of artistic vision and detail.

Sorry, if it's not the comparison of zionism to nazism, then what are the problematic elements that you're concerned about? The wojak? The AC/DC logo? why-post-this

Thesis: Marx would have been pleased to be offered a Labubu because of his favourite maxim being "Nothing human is alien to me", and thus would have been intensely facinated by this strange garden-elf statuette. curious-marx

Antithesis: Marx would get annoyed at the Labubu because of his favourite motto being "Doubt everything", and go on a rant about cuteness culture being a form of commodity fetishism/false consciousness/etc. obscuring the human suffering necessary for mass production of meaningless baubles. marx-angry

Synthesis: Marx would thank the person offering him the Labubu, and later give it to Jenny to sell at the pawnshop, so that he can buy back his pants. marx-doomer

jinx does the piltover equivalent of 9/11

whew thanks for the clarification google AI overview

Seriously though, ~~America~~ Piltover deserved ~~9/11~~ Super Mega Death Rocket azan

 

edit: it seems that the ai account deleted their tweet containing the video (a "hyperrealistic" ai reimagining of the trailer for Arcane season 2). Probably the only proof the thing ever existed online is a reply posted by a former Fortische production assistant who worked on season 2.

[This desertion crisis] comes as the U.S. urges Ukraine to draft more troops, and allow for the conscription of those as young as 18.

The US suggests implementation of vigorous structural adjustments programs in Ukraine to unlock yet-untapped youthful innovation and dynamism in the latter's thriving meat-processing industry.

Hmm what I heard was: “你好中国朋友们,这是(?)之家,我叫利,欢迎来和我们一起玩“

"Hello China friends, this is <probably the bear's name?>'s home, I am called Li(?), you're welcome to come play with us"

Why waste time scrounging up both a sock and a half-brick when a single cast-iron frying pan is already more than adequate for any imaginable problem, plus fairy incursions? Typical PMC wizardry, always trying to overcomplicate magic.

Malala could have had some vaguely "left" sympathies when she was attending that Trot summer camp 2012 as a 16 year old. But I doubt that she has any kind of real socialist convictions left in her as a 27 year old adult, when she's been safely ensconced within Western elite liberal "progressive" institutions for more than a decade, and is now so financially secure and socially accepted within that crowd that she's co-producing suffragette Broadway musicals with the Hilldawg herself. https://archive.ph/rURQV

She's not a comrade or any sort of revolutionary. At most she's a safe brown "activist" who's ultimately compatible with Western capitalist hegemony.

the chap who did thisstomp stomp

Was making a reference to Overlord: an overworked salaryman from near-future cyberpunk Japan wakes up in a fantasy world as his VRMMO player character (i.e., the skeleton in the pic), and alongside with the evil NPCs created by himself and his former guildmates (they were a guild dedicated to roleplaying evil grotesque monsters) proceed to take over the world using the power of fantasy violence. Because the MC and his NPCs are absurdly over-leveled compared to the fantasy world natives, the casualties are incredibly one-sided and genocidal.

The show's a bit above average compared with other isekai, as it balances out its shameless powerfantasy with some decent comedy of errors and quite some effort being put into the worldbuilding/power system. It has a fair amount of typical anime horniness though, though I think it's relatively tame compared to the lowest common denominator isekai slop.

She's just foreshadowing her pick for Secretary of Defence.

 

We need a total and complete shutdown of all Ivy League anthropology departments until we can figure out what the hell is going on.

Interesting that Viking battle-axes used to rape and pillage defenceless seaside villages are fetishised by some Scandanavians/Europeans/Americans today as "rad" and "totally awesome as fuck" -- that's truly sick.

And, it is probably part of the broader psychological denial of the gruesome history of bloody violence, on which modern Western capitalist hegemony is founded. a-little-trolling
