Yes it is. Look at the eyes on the ducks. Also the guy's hands and nose. Dead giveaways.

California workers who cut countertops are dying of an incurable disease
Reply in thread
That is sad to hear. I live in an area where almost no one wore masks. Even at the hight of the pandemic. Our local pharmacies got a bunch of N95s for free to give away free. There was supposed to be a limit but since no one was using them they would give me a lot of extra. I'm guessing they still have boxes stacked up somewhere.
Its also sad that this could have probably been prevented by using a wet saw with water hooked up. Anyone who has cut stone once without a wet saw walks away knowing they shouldn't have been breathing that.

I hope you’re not afraid of heights
Good thing someone is holding the ladder.

This was always super liminal to me because you're in this position so rarely and only for a moment.
I haven't been on a plane in about 10 years. That moment in this space is a great example of a liminal space. Your post brought me right to that feeling of being on the plane but not being on the plane.

Humans taking a plea for help as an attack.
Partly joking, partly serious :)

Fan taking selfie causes Tour de France crash
Here is the best video showing the crash I found. They zoom in at one point. The guy was way in to the track. Not just his arm sticking out.
I wonder how fans treat someone in the crowd after something like that.

Wich fictional character is unfairly hated by the public ?
Jar Jar Binks was not a bad "person" in Star Wars but was a hated character. He was one of the nicest good guys.
The actor who played Jar Jar Binks, Ahmed Best, said that the widespread criticism of his character had led to him considering suicide.

Shunned in computer age, cursive makes a comeback in California
Reply in thread
I'm 40 and our teacher explained why cursive was a thing in elementary school. I figured we were learning it so we could sign our name.
Take computers out of the picture. How long have we been using ballpoint pens? Cursive was obsolete even before computers took over how we write.

X will begin charging new users $1 a year to access key features including the ability to tweet and retweet.

And he will do that for you at the low price of only $1. Better do it now before the price goes up.

It is not Lemmy or kbin, it is the fediverse.

Definitely a clunky term. It will be interesting to see what the feds come up with. Lets see if that catches on :-D
Seriously, I'm sure something good will emerge.

@small44, did you already have an Instagram account and get automatically signed up? Just curious if that is what they are doing to get so many users.
