I'm thinking of Symphony of the Sixth Blast Furnace by Evgeny Sedukhin again...

[juney-blues]

hmm okay i'm trying to dig up a source on this painting, to see if i could find it in any higher quality

but i can't find any evidence of its existence from before 2018 lmao

and searching the artist's name only gets me like 6 pages of results on google

and a little artist showcase page on arthive for this guy with exactly 1 painting listed

and a biography that spells this guy's name like 5 different ways

which i'm pretty sure is because it's machine translated from something

very mysterious

[juney-blues]

oh doing his name in russian gives me some actually useful results, why didn't i think to do that

Trump’s Deportation Warehouse System Already Matches a Very Specific Period in History

The government has begun construction of a multibillion-dollar detention camp system in the newest phase of Stephen Miller’s mass deportatio

Slate is burying the lede with this headline.

When you look at some of the biggest concentration camp systems across the world, we are actually approaching or ahead of the numbers for those massive famous ones. The Nazis came to power in 1933 and immediately, within weeks, had opened Dachau—which, I will note, was founded on a converted factory site—so we’re echoing this history right from the beginning. It was not until about five and a half years later, with Kristallnacht, that they started doing large sweeps of German Jews into camps. In that 48-hour period, more than 30,000 Jews were sent into concentration camps. That was five years into Nazi rule.

Emphasis mine.

i think being proud of where you come from is one of those things that becomes fun the more specific you get. like "proud to be english" bad rancid vibes. makes you sound like the kind of person who rants about immigrants. "proud to be from yorkshire" better vibes. i cannot deny the yorkshire cultural heritage. "proud to be from pocklington" absolutely fucking hilarious please never let anybody kill your pocklington pride.

[redstonedust]

i love the USA: weird vibes. dont trust that.

i love muskegon michigan: you are experiencing a kind of personal joy that i can and will not take from you

After the verdicts, Rogers’ mother, Clare, said: “Our loved one’s action against Elbit Systems and the state’s brutal response have exposed the true values of the government. The government is determined to do business with Israel and protect its weapons industry at any cost.

“Our loved ones dared to poke this beast – and no expense has been spared in policing, prosecuting and imprisoning them without trial. Imagine if the government had put the same amount of money, resources and political will into preventing a genocide.”

A spokesperson for Defend Our Juries, which has organised rallies opposing the ban on Palestine Action, which took effect on 5 July last year, said the verdicts were “a huge blow to government ministers” who had “tried to portray Palestine Action as a violent group to justify banning it under badly drafted terrorism legislation”.

pacific rim fucks severely for a lot of reasons but my favorite is that it opens with "the lizard aliens are unionizing so we built robots running on the power of love to fight them you got all that right" and before you have time to really process that concept bam gunshot body on the floor and the movie goes "now consider the vast power of grief in this setup" it never really stops considering

[catgirlbignaturals]

It also has a scene where the robot uses a boat as a baseball bat. That also fucks tremendously.

So much of the world's "riches" came from Latin America that it really makes the mind dizzy. You see all those palaces in Austria and you would think they are as far from Bolivia as possible and then you remember that the Austrian Habsburgs ruled the Spanish Empire and partook of the loot of the silver and gold from the Americas. You see the cuisine of Europe, Asia and Africa completely changed by American crops to the point that many don't even remember where they came from. Silver from Potosí found its way from China to Sweden. All the world was enriched, directly or not, while the Americas were plundered. When you really realize the scale of it, the entire line of history bends around it.

i absolutely love how gintama fansubbers never take much liberty with the dialogues while translating to make it easier for the audience to understand and instead opt to put an entire wall of text over the screen providing the context and explaining the linguistic and semantic nuance of the joke like yes tell me all about the causes and symptoms of this one penis infection so that i can understand the 5 very specific dick jokes gintoki is going to make simultaneously in a row in the next 60 seconds
