Elon Musk just opened a restaurant in Los Angeles. This is the menu.
Imagine being the richest person on earth and best you can come up with for a new restaurant is the most boring menu at ridiculous prices.
Edit: To be fair tho, gonna need a source on this. Since OP hasn’t provided a link or anything.

Davel, .ml admin: "The russians can kill woman and children too, as a treat"
Imagine how ML would react if you used Davel’s sentence in the context of Gaza. They really have no consistency in their beliefs except being anti-west Campists.
(Obligatory fuck the Israeli State and Solidarity with Gazans)

I don’t know all the Star Wars lore, but Anakin describing himself as a “general” is interesting. Did he lead armies?

Looks like the red is to symbolise how they’ve got blood on their hands vis à vis Gaza

This is kind of unfair because in properly done trials patients are told to report all symptoms they experienced in the period whether or not they think it was caused by the drug. Then you compare possible side effect incidence between the placebo and treatment group. And any statistically significant difference is very likely the side effect of the drug. (Humans are pretty bad with causality, so it works a lot more accurately this way, especially in well powered studies).

Distorted sound of the early universe suggests we are living in a giant void
In fact, it appears we live in a giant cosmic void with roughly 20% lower than the average density of matter.
Okay that’s a little less dramatic than I envisioned given the use of the word “void”

Some 90s standup
The Simpsons' longtime director David Silverman claimed that Smithers was always intended to be "Mr. Burns' white sycophant" and **the producers ultimately decided that it "**would be a bad idea to have a black subservient character to a rich white man," so Smithers was literally color-corrected for his next episode. The first appearance of the proper yellow Smithers with grey hair was in "There's No Disgrace Like Home", the fourth episode of The Simpsons season 1.

the simultaneous diversity of the human experience brings me joy
Fun, albeit slightly pedantic, fact. Slavic languages, like Muscovite (which became “Russian”), only spread to Siberia during the Russian Tsardom’s settler colonial invasion in the late 1500s.
Before then we had lots of different indigenous languages, many in Turkic or Uralic language groups. So “Ivan Mammothovic” is an anarchronism.

The only TRUE leftists are the ones who have never received Western support
Campist brainrot.
Yeah sure the anti-capitalist anti-state place that is treated like a terrorist group by the EU is a NATO psyop.
Never mind that Turkey, a literal NATO member, regularly invades Rojava and commits war crimes there.

Gods Odds
Khepri (Egyptian: ḫprj, also transliterated Khepera, Kheper, Khepra, Chepri) is a scarab-faced god in ancient Egyptian religion who represents the rising or morning sun. By extension, he can also represent creation and the renewal of life.

I often heard it translated as “as god has wished” from Arabic languages (ma sha allah).

The Oedipus Complex
This is like Orwell who devoted his life as a (anarchist leaning) democratic socialist to fight authoritarianism.
And now authoritarian things are called “Orwellian”.
