I found this reddit thread on bluesky, and the comments are surprisingly a nice read (how can we really verify these comments are from actual tourists and they're being truthful? Eh, I guess we can't do that better than you can on any other reddit thread, but the comments are pretty overwhelmingly positive, so at least some of them are likely from real tourists expressing their real opinions)
Some friendly comments from Americans replying to the last one, too:
A dragon in a forest!
Yknow in light of everything else that happened during JSC I forgot that Ordis got a new voice actor
One of the most fucked up things Nintendo has ever done continues to be making it so Shamir in Fire Emblem: Three Houses cannot be romanced by the female Byleth

Seems legit
we all hear about kudzu being introduced as "erosion control" in the South but I don't think contemporary people understand on a gut level what that means
these are images from a 1930s pamphlet that endorsed kudzu, entitled "stop gullies: save your farm"
It was Bad.
Invasive plants need to be understood as part of a much larger cycle of incredible violence against the land.
For context: erosion on that scale occurred as a result of our clear-cutting entire states. The land east of the Mississippi used to be covered in old-growth forest to an extent that we literally canāt imagine anymore, because most of us have never seen a forest over 100 years old. It turns out if you remove all vegetation from a landscape, you end up with a bunch of loose soil ready to move downstream. A fast-growing plant that covers everything in dense vegetation sounds like salvation when youāre surrounded by 40-foot deep gullies that get wider with every rainstorm.
A lot of the south too was covered in Canebreaks, basically bamboo forests like a lot of South Asia, I don't know the specifics of the ecology, but bamboo being a grass I assume is rhizomatic like other grasses and forms a big net of roots that prevent erosion. *I assume* (pleez ecologists weigh in)
Yes, the destruction of Canebrakes was a direct cause of this erosion we see here. Canebrakes were destroyed, using slave labor, to make room for cotton plantations. You can read about it here.
Canebrakes built up incredibly rich, fertile soil and are amazing at preventing erosion. They form incredibly strong mats of rhizomes. And their roots are known to go 10 feet deep into the soil.
The erosion we see in these pictures was a result, very much directly, of the Canebrakes being destroyed.
This is a case study in how violence against ecosystems goes so closely hand in hand with violence against people. The violence against the indigenous caretakers of the land, and the violence against the enslaved captives that were forced to clear the Rivercane and work the cotton fields that would degrade the soil into nothing.
When the coarse/rough feeling of leg hair starts getting to me on a sensory level, since I refuse to shave or wax my legs due to approximately all reasons ranging from dysphoria to sensitive skin issues to who has the time to Fuck That Bullshit, I apply: beard butter.
It's made for moisturizing and softening--basically conditioning--coarse hair, as well as the skin, without leaving weird residue.
They come in a wide variety of brands, ingredients, and pricepoints, I won't even begin to make a suggestion, but yes it is different than beard balm or beard oil.
Since it's going on legs, which means both less sensitive skin and much greater surface area than a beard, I recommend going for quantity over quality and getting something cheap.
It doesn't give you that dolphin smoothness, but it does make your legs feel nice and soft, and doesn't have the consequence of being extra prickly and itchy later. It might be especially good for people who are making the brave leap from shaving to not shaving.

all cops are bastards because all cops are just doing their jobs
āIām just doing what Iām told. If I am ordered to remove gold fillings from refugees theeth then thatās what Iāll doā, says police officer Michael Hansen. Just thought Iād add this since not a lot of people outside of the nordic countries seem to have seen it. This is a danish police officer discussing a new danish law that says the police should seize the possesions and money of refugees to finance the integration.
He uh, skipped awful quickly to āstealing gold fillingsā didnāt he?
Original Article the image & caption are taken from.
Itās real.
Remember that ājust following ordersā was a claim made by the nazis who survived World War Two who were charged with warcrimes.
They also stole the gold from peopleās teeth.
I wasn't expecting Jade Shadows: Constellations to be a spiritual successor to Isleweaver, but it really is, down to:
* the experiment that the Indifference is running in Operator and Drifter
"Two identical souls raised in such different environments. Haven't you figured it out yet? You're fascinating."
* the theme that the Indifference particularly attacks the bonds between families.
The Orphan snarled up at her. "You can't bear it, can you? Anything good, anything wholesome, even the bond between a parent and child! You corrupt it all!"
[...]
"I don't corrupt their love. I don't have to. It was broken when I found it."
"STOP!"
The Queen took a deep, nostalgic drag on her Efervon inhaler. Lungs that were no longer lungs spasmed in austere delight. "The same crack runs through everything, kiddo," she explained. "You want to deny it, that's on you."

So I saw a photo of this hexagon tile floor . . .
The blurb said the shot was taken in Granada, Spain, by Agneta FondĆ©n. Ā No other info, so I have no idea how old, etc. Ā There's a game (from 1988) that uses a similar pattern on one of its pieces, but this could predate it by at least a thousand years Ā ā or not. Ā But the pattern intrigued me, so I made a texture map and used Blender's geometry nodes (no generative AI) to set up a hexagon grid with random rotations for the tiles:
That's all done with a single design:
You'd think this would have a name, right? Ā (For its historical use as an architectural / decor tile ā although I've found out more about its use in games, that's not what I'm looking for.) Ā Like the Penroses do (and no, it's not one of those). Ā But I've had no luck finding it, or any other info. Ā Any (human only, please) help?

I cannot describe how much I laughed at this.
