The media are pulling out the same sea level rise bullshit tactics; this time even more egregiously. Taking the UN data on face value, sea levels are predicted to rise less than 2m under the worst case scenario. Knowing this, the media publishes pictures of an impossible 60m rise while implying this will be the case. They never say so explicitly in the article because they know it is false. Pathetic.

Thousands of Colombians protest in many cities in #Colombia. They are against leftist Pres. Gustavo Petro's proposed social & economic reforms! Not to mention this WEF member was put in after the elected leader was randomly arrested!
Bet you didn't hear about this on the news!

Which is yet another reason why I left clearnet, even though they can DDoS darknet (which we've seen with Dread on one hand and an exploit in i2pd 2.45.1 on the other hand), but they can't actually deplatform me unless they physically find my servers.

Man do I hate it when people think that fiction MUST correlate to reality! The orcs = black people is just the tip of the iceberg.

There are apparently people who think that because Hylians are inspired by medieval Europeans and Gerudo are inspired by Islamic Middle Easterners, they MUST have had holy wars at some point.

Like come on... They're inspired by the aesthetics and culture of those places and people, but that's pretty much where the similarities end. Pretty sure people in the Middle East weren't almost exclusively female and required white men to get them pregnant for their race to continue.

It reminds me of people thinking that Hideki Anno was putting in all of this Christian symbolism into Evangelion but in the end he just thought it looked cool.

It's totally fine to take inspiration from history and even include a lot of the same symbols if you want, but that doesn't mean anything you make is then subject to everything that where your inspiration came from is. I have a Medieval Catholic inspired group of people in my game but they came from very magical origins and have a lot to hide regarding that. I have Japanese inspired people, but they still have a lot of European aesthetics in their architecture and clothing and their religion is closer to that of the Greek Pantheon. Both of them have rituals and other beliefs as well as general cultures that can be quite similar and quite different to what inspired them. I've got other races that are inspired by isolated tribes, Egyptians, Nords, and Elves too but they are still all unique in their own ways and do to say they because history happened one way in the real world means it must have happened there too is so off base it's ridiculous.

Given all the crazy happening on Twitter this morning, where Elon is shutting down free SMS Two Factor Authentification, putting it behind a paywall, it seems like a good time to post this:

This server and all Mastodon servers have built-in Two-Factor for free - and we strongly encourage everyone to enable this. Here is how.
