the problem is that a lot of people think that the evil of eugenics is "playing with forces of nature man was not meant to meddle with" and not the whole cohercion and killing and mutilation of people

[jambeast]

Similarly, conceiving of 'genocide' as 'threatening the continuity of [trait] that some people have' rather than 'threatening the actual people with [trait]', which is how you get people convinced that mixed race couples and immigration is genocide against white people, education about evolution is genocide against [religion], or that the availability of ozempic is genocide against the fat.

We have to care about People - Actual People, not Groups-that-people-belong-to and their belonging-to-those-groups. And you have to care about them *because they are people*, not *because* they are group members.

If there's one thing that brings me joy in these trying times... it's turning my unreasonable excitement for a 60 year old Doctor Who episode into unreadably deep fried memes. Welcome home Dalek's Masterplan parts 1 and 3.

It kind of fucks with me that somebody killed ötzi the iceman because ötzi himself is like whatever but the silent presence of human hands that drew back the string of the bow that shot the arrow that killed him is crazy. the idea that there were various people involved in that situation and while one of them has had his last hours painstakingly reconstructed and studied to no end, the others now only exist insofar that an arrowhead had to get into his shoulder somehow. imagine killing someone and then suddenly your entire existence is only a vague shadow implied by the fact that you killed them. much to consider

[twoblogger]

Testing the mummified bone marrow of ötzi to figure out his ancestry whole time there’s definitely another person, maybe more than one, standing in the room with us but I can never see or speak to them because I only know them through the assurance that they were there too in the form of one single arrowhead. I hate prehistory so much it’s unreal

[angel-derangement]

I hate it too tbh

I'm sorry but this is just too funny not to put here (not my screenshot)

Mobius has had its fair share of relationship drama in the past, but that's all over now! Now it's definitely, probably, maybe nothing but healthy and well-adjusted romance from here on out! Happy Valentine's Day!

I think this might just be the only piece of Tatiana fanart that exists. I'm actually shocked by my own ability to identify her and remember her name!

ICE agents forced to flee Minnesota neighborhood due to car alarm alert system

Frustrated Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers fled a Minnesota neighborhood after residents alerted each other by triggering car a

Basically, people are using their key fobs to set off their car alarms when they see ICE.

This is effective for several reasons:

Obviously, it alerts everyone that something is wrong. Given ICE has been terrorizing Minnesota, people are likely to immediately know it is ICE. This gives people time to flee or barricade themselves in their homes.

ICE loses the element of surprise.

If one person hears a car alarm go off, they can trigger their own alarm, alerting even more people, but also making it really annoying for ICE. Annoying sounds petty, but it can be effective. Have you ever been in a building when a super loud fire alarm went off? It's very hard to concentrate. You can't hear much else. You just want to leave. ICE experiences this when a whole street if car alarms go off. Which means they make mistakes.

Sonic CD Fun Fact: All four Collision Chaos JP tracks are in the key of C (some Major, some minor, all with some degree of modal mixture), as is the US Present track.

No other level in the final game begins with one of the seven letters conventionally used for musical notes. However the D.A. Garden theme, originally written for the Present version of cut level Dubious Depths, is indeed in D minor.

i did finish the origins story mode, for those wondering. i just forgot to blog about it because i got super into the flow of the endgame. will add cliffsnotes version eventually

Same as it ever was.

i uh

i think something went wrong with the ai* for this fight. i'm pretty sure he's supposed to advance across the room but

he's just kinda. standing there

*we really need a replacement term for this when it comes to boss programming

[rassilontdavros]

so the thing about the ice cap proto track is…

it fits the level. it fits the graphical look and gameplay of the level fine! i'd go so far as to say that i think it conveys the tone that the devs probably had in mind for the level better than the buxer track from the final game does. it's a winter wonderland! why shouldn't it sound happy? if anything, it's probably more remarkable that buxer saw the level and instead thought of a sad song that he'd written years ago

the problem is that because it used "hard times" originally, i've been conditioned for years to think of ice cap zone as a lonely, desolate wasteland forgotten by time— which makes the jolly christmasy music a shock to the system

[rassilontdavros]

and while we're on the subject of new music yeah i have no idea why these versions of the prototype tracks were used instead of the more refined versions from the 11/03/93 proto. like, sega made those, right? legal ass-covering i guess
