CURSED Jurassic Park BOOK COVERS (some are lowkey serving)

And there's NO case in which a country did this that *wasn't* tyrannical. There is no instance, anywhere in our history, in any nation, of a government hunting people down on its own soil for paperwork infractions that actually solved or even slightly improved any problem it was claimed to address.

This is not hyperbole. An "illegal alien crackdown" has never had benefits worth even just the money it cost, not ever not once, let alone the fact that such a course of action has never not ever not once managed to only persecute "bad people." I'm not even talking about the margin of error or inevitability that "some" innocent people get "mistakenly" arrested, I mean this type of movement has destroyed more good people than violent people EVERY time, always, invariably.

Oh shit, did anyone else ever have this old set of wildlife fact cards??

The photos of modern species were just alright (70s camerawork) but the PAINTINGS for prehistoric animals....oh my god

Theyre so old they use an obsolete name for dunkleosteus but this was where I learned of dunks and was already portrayed with "lips" hiding the teeth:

Its also incredible how accurate some of them still are, and then there's this:

This one ENTHRALLED me as a baby, I assumed for some reason that it was like like 15 feet long:

Heres all of them:

the tldr and most important thing to know is: i do not recommend you plan, discuss plans, or use any kind of hyperbolic (or not) language about violence to government officials or anyone in that vicinity on discord. please use signal instead.

a discord trust & safety employee is technically able to see any message you’ve sent under your account, going all the way back to the beginning of your account. unless you have manually deleted a message, it is viewable to a tns employee. now: it is a tremendous part of being on a tns team that we did NOT invade user privacy without cause. cause was usually: another user reported something you said, and we thought the reported message indicated you might be doing something elsewhere that was illegal (for example: a user says “i’m talking to this girl but she’s in high school lol.” i would then try to find evidence as to whether or not there was a child safety issue there. in this example, we’d require clear admission of age from both the user and the alleged high school girl, and then clear evidence of sexual talk between them, and go from there.) finding evidence required looking though all of that user’s messages.

most of the tns team, as i know them, are pretty resolute about not going further in looking than would be needed for action. most of the tns team that i still speak to is very much on the side of blue. your general conversations are probably perfectly safe, and we were very good at figuring out quickly if someone has reported you maliciously. i don’t believe you need to worry too much about your porn and fanfic and all that.

HOWEVER: reported content must be investigated, and discord can, and has been, legally subpoenaed to turn over user information. again, this has nominally been in Very Evil cases (CSAM and grooming, school shooting threats, murder admissions, etc.) but that could change, either at the federal level, or at the discord policy level. discord, like any social media company, could easily be pressured or forced into taking on different internal policies that could get you in serious trouble if you are organizing violent or “illegal” resistance. if that happens, there is a scenario where this incoming administration is given access to your messages.

again: please do not organize your political or social resistance on discord from now on. please use signal to ensure your maximum safety. do not panic if you have already talks about things on discord: you can easily delete your messages, and that WILL remove from an employee’s view. do that and use signal from now on.

My cousin is a surgeon and was sewing something and used that stitch and then froze and said “Wait this isn’t a person.”

Headlines across eight years. Who you vote for really does matter. None of these headlines delve into the Boar's Head listeria outbreak because I can only post ten photos in one post. But the slaughter house self regulate headline? Yup, that's why.
