For those who thought that this was Nintendo baiting people into posting videos for them to take down, (as I initially did, admittedly), it’s actually people posting pictures of YouTube takedown notices. Nintendo didn’t bait anyone...They walked into a metaphorical garden rake.
Okay, that's funny.
so christopher nolan drilled into an active historical site to rig a scene, dumped a bunch of plastic skeletons into the ocean with no plan to fish them out, and ruined an actual Viking ship on loan from sweden and refuses to pay for damages. all for that garbage movie.
Swedish nonprofit alleges cost to repair replica was $6,000 but Universal – which made $264m on film’s opening weekend – has not stumped up

looking for a news outlet to pick up the archeologist drama over this but you can google the practical effects used for the cyclops and find the pictures pretty easily
Despite Morocco’s hopes that its film industry would reap rewards, the blockbuster’s success will be tainted by controversy surrounding film
and it gets even worse
The biggest failure of science as a institution is that instead of its findings be able to force governments to enact policies after an informed public comes to a consensus, we have rich people paying scientists to obscure the data and create fake discourse.
the result is a fracture reality in which proven facts are debated and basically money can buy reality and affect policy without the consent neither of the scientists nor of the people.
under capitalism money is speech. the supreme court of the usa was right about that. and that connection makes it impossible to have any representation system that actually mirrors the will of the people therefore succeeding on the supposed main goal of democracy. a state that servers the people.
however if you are a pessimist about democracy you do understand that democracy only serves the citizens just as it did back in ancient Athens. If anything the current system must be counted as a democracy and who actually has power reveals who is an actual citizen. And unfortunately the proletariat is not.
Science is deeply political and it is a tool that creates reality it doesn't observe it objectively. And the disconnect of stem and humanities is one of our biggest failures of the modern era. Abstractions are useful when you create a bridge you don't want to fall not when you have to understand your role and position as a scientists in a society. We should have ethics and politics classes in universities and talk about the material history of our area of expertise. without it we end up creating more and more silicon valleys.
Hey, don’t cry. Free online database of Japanese folk lore
Might I add, free database of mostly European folklore and myths
A Book of Creatures by @a-book-of-creatures doesn't update these days but is another thing along these lines, really huge, fully illustrated all by the author and cites all sources

We need to lay more blame for "Kids don't know how computers work" at the feet of the people responsible: Google.
Google set out about a decade ago to push their (relatively unpopular) chromebooks by supplying them below-cost to schools for students, explicitly marketing them as being easy to restrict to certain activities, and in the offing, kids have now grown up in walled gardens, on glorified tablets that are designed to monetize and restrict every movement to maximize profit for one of the biggest companies in the world.
Tech literacy didn't mysteriously vanish, it was fucking murdered for profit.
Linux is a very good and powerful alternative.
reminder: you cannot Personal Choises your way out of an Intentional Structural Problem
Fun fact! School Chromebooks block Linux. It's not an easy alternative. You are missing the point
Week 1 - 10 in my weekly poster series for 2026
Not gonna lie this makes me a bit irritated. Here's the real version of this photo:
Instead of a cutesie reference to film censorship it was an explicit statement of defiance of Maryland's criminalization gay sex, which was not repealed until 2002. This wasn't a guy saying "Oh they can't put what I do in the movies according to a completely voluntary industry code" he was saying "The State of Maryland wants to put me in jail for being gay and having gay sex."
It wasn't a guy being cheeky about sex in an ambiguous, cute way. It was a man stating, in no uncertain terms, that a whole state of the United States considered him a criminal for being homosexual.
YOUNG MAN!
There's no need to feel down,
I MEAN YOUNG THEY!
I forgot your pronoun,
Prev do you think it's okay to just go on other people's posts and be funnier than them?

Ebola is still spreading in several countries in central Africa. How did the outbreak manage to spread so far and infect so many people without being detected? This guy!
This guy, in violation of Congressional funding allocation, withdrew tons of international aid. The end of USAID was orchestrated without warning, without a wind-down plan, leaving critical infrastructure to simply collapse.
