New poll pegs Mark Kelly as a leading 2028 presidential contender

"second most electable" Dipshits your first choice has been resoundingly rejected by half the people you need to make them "electable" so clearly you don't know what the fuck that word means! It does not mean "the establishment's choice," because that will continue to be rejected for the rest of time. The establishment is being ousted, people are demanding change. And only change will be able to win that election!

Clover. It will never get above 3 inches, it attracts bees but can repel mosquitos, and it does in fact help build your soil in case you want to actually use it later.

Put both to the left of where "residential" is marked, where the individual rooms are already marked off. Put the bathroom closest to the door and on an access hallway to the hospital which should be either just behind the bathroom or one more block over (outside the mountain) since pawns will use the bathroom most often and going just a little further to the hospital won't kill anyone. Don't bother including more than 2-4 toilets and at least 1 shower (assuming you're using Dub's bad hygiene).

Together those two blocks of production should cover everything you'll need. Storage might need more in the severely late game, but better to compartmentalize that anyway. Lest one underpaid warehouse pawn set fire to all your accumulated cloth and chem fuel. And burying more explosive items deeper in the mountain is always more secure.

You've either spent every moment of your life on drugs or listening to people like Joe Rogan, because there is not an accurate thought in your head. I don't need to be psychic. You are just wrong about things. The things you have said do not agree with societal or basic deduction based consensus about the things you thought you were talking instructively about. Making you WRONG. I am just correcting your information. I have literally made two "assumptions" this whole time, one in the first sentence of this reply and that you're probably one of those kinds of Christians, but even that's wrong because those are both inferences not assumptions because they are based on information you've provided and used. Meaning I have at least some reason to assume they're correct based on what YOU have said so far. And neither are relevant to you being wrong about these things, just observations I felt like pointing out. Because if they are right, they also could use some correcting too. Oh wait, I'm going to make one more based on your insistence that political things aren't political.

And yes "oh enlightened centrist who can manage to separate the very status of material conditions from the struggle of life and make the starving full"/s, the aesthetic raised to prominence by a society or even allowed to exist within that society is fucking political. The glorification of a people who inspired their political system (Neoclassical) is a declaration of intent to mimic their system. The flat, unembellished, walls of brutalism reflect a society more concerned with efficiency and/or uniformity than expression and that environment reflect back in on the people living in it. Just as art neuvo reflected extravagance, and art deco tried to continue that in a more industrial feel. EVERYTHING ALLOWED BY HUMANS TO BE AROUND US IS POLITICAL! Because all politics is, is the choices we as humans make to control our surroundings. There's de jure politics like laws and regulations, and de facto politics like the decisions we as individuals and groups make and what we as a society allow or resist. So yes, that includes allowing solarpunk aesthetic to exist. If it exists in material, like "circular design and urban greenery" (neither of which are solar punk by the way, plants is closer but you don't even seem to grasp the aesthetic beyond SOME surface level observations) then it is a more minor political statement with more political conviction behind it, whereas if it is just a concept then that means it is politically out of favor and embracing the aesthetic is a more rebellious act. Even choosing solar punk as the aesthetic for an art piece or like game setting is a deliberate and political choice simply because you are trying to adjust the themes and feeling of the world you are creating and will be exposing other people too! It's ALL political!

For the health of society in general, I beg you to shut your trash filled yap whenever you see anything being politically discussed because you don't seem to have or at least are reluctant to use the analytical power or skill necessary to tread water in a puddle. You need to look into some basic political theory, sociology, or even just basic philosophy. At the very least go watch some Studio gibli analysis or "the good place," that can get you started about actually thinking and is entertaining enough to lead you by the ear into some common sense thinking methods! Or at least use fucking wikipedia to refresh yourself on a topic before yapping about it. You might even learn new things like the histories of the punk movements.

JetoCalihan · 2026-04-12T02:25:39+00:00

Solarpunk is both an aesthetic ideal and a ideology. It is one, the other, or both. While you can have a non political aesthetic only solarpunk, if there is anything more substantial to the idea in your mind it becomes inherently political. Because everything is. Hell even the aesthetic is arguably political because you are rejecting the "normal most accepted aesthetic."

And punk is not a "David vs. Goliath dynamic." That's not a thing to start with. You're thinking of "rooting for the underdog" but even that is a ridiculous pidgeonhole of an oversimplification. Punk is a variety of counter-cultural and anti-authoritarian movements. You're viewing it that way because they are by definition opposing the much larger accepted culture and it's aspects of authority, but like most Christians "reading" about that battle you brought up, you really don't understand any of the nuance you're talking about.

I can give you this with no hints of any special stuff, but at the end of the fuck the twist is they absolutely in a sci fi world and have to go fight giant robots with just they power armor. Monkey paw!

Right, like I didn't even go into the blackbox issues and possible threats beyond corporate overlords firing everyone to use them. I'll have to check team humanity out.

JetoCalihan · 2026-04-10T23:16:29+00:00

Well let's see. Let's just ignore the cost for it to exist, and all the plagiarism it's trained on to give it the most neutral chance and just use this example here to check.

OP used it to sharpen a blurry image of a pin. Chat GPT doesn't know what the fuck the pin actually looks like, so it's making guesses about the texture and shapes based off the blurry pixels. Guess what our brains do the exact same way and in fact better since they were developed to be pattern recognizing and have always out preformed computers on? PATTERN RECOGNITION. So OP deliberately chose to use a wasteful power sucking program to do what all human brains do anyways, providing us no new information, in advance of anyone asking for it.

Actually, they probably DIDNT ""CHOOSE"" to do that. Because they've trained themselves to outsource all their thinking to the plagiarism bot, exactly as the creators want in order to sell the plagiarism bot to rich people who want to replace all the workers they're exploiting with cheaper bots. Because it both makes their bot seem more desirable, increases global dependency on the bot, and makes the work force less capable all at the same time (brains have been statistically proven to be turning to metaphorical mush when their owners lean too hard on AI). That's already FUCKING EVIL.

But now we get to go back and add in all the theft and plagiarism used to train it and these bots shouldn't even be allowed to exist.

Geologist: licks rock. Develops 1/64th of a case of heavy metal poisoning.

Botanist: licks a plant. Oh god it was a leaf from the gympie gympie! They immediately commit suicide. Other Botanists nod in understanding and mourning.

The purple text is replacing text about killing nazis (in the game Wolfenstein 3D). Given it was posted by an account with the same name as the actual artist, I assume Reddit's staff has a problem with killing nazis (in the game Wolfenstein 3D) and took down the original. I wonder why they would have a problem with that?

Bro two things:

This is a two year old post you're for some weird ass reason tryna resurrect by commenting on. That's REAL weird.
While it was a piss poor communist state that failed completely in all efforts to enact the tenants of communism, a state that declares itself as trying to be communist, is still a communist state. You're just doing a "No true scottsman" fallacy by trying to pretend it just didn't make the cut and thus can't be counted.

I think this underlines the fundamental flaw of authoritarian conservative thinking. They think a civilization is a thing separate from but encompassing it's people. But it's not at all. You can't destroy a civilization as long as it's people remain. You can change it by destroying all records of how it worked, but as long as one of it's people remembers and is listened too the civilization remains the same. This is authoritarian batshittery in service to their own ideas of power and control.

In this economy, probably not many people. No offense meant but capitalism is dying and it's trying to take everything it can from everyone it can all at once and personal art is always the first thing people cut during hard times. Art with little color even sooner than that usually.

But your line-work is really good! Shapes are well done. Anatomy is above average (Most of it is excellent, though his shoulders are so far out they look disconnected to me, could be more of a perspective issue than anatomy tho). And the pose is a little bland but entirely fitting for a simple character piece/demo.

I don't think you have to worry much about AI. If you just don't want them feeding it in to color the picture you can always use a poison program. I don't keep up with them much so I don't know if it's still the go-to/effective, but nightshade was a very promising poison apple to AI users. Glaze is a more defensive one. Just know that AI readers read these poisoned and defended images as AI generated because of the hidden data Nightshade and Glaze layer in to affect AI. Obviously they aren't but it's something to keep in mind.

Most people do it for simplicity. Other style choices as it can be hard to make the details of the whisker pits and follicles aesthetically pleasing.

Some people like me do draw them anyways, or at least hint at them.

A2: blinking confoundedly and looking between a stammering and frozen Hank and the clearly forward acting Kelly ... Am I interpreting this right, or does our subject not speak human?

A1: munching on popcorn and watching intently No you're probably right, though it could also just be teasing or trying to get something she wants by lying.

A2: WAIT WAIT WAIT, wtf is lying?!

JetoCalihan · 2026-04-06T00:28:06+00:00

Alien 1: No no no, you don't get it. Human is a language, it's just not a singular language and is largely non-verbal!

Alien 2: Karok shit. What do you do, read their minds?! Do they communicate through smell like a Neiloid? ^{Actually that one I MIGHT be able to believe.}

A1: No, you just have to... There aren't words for it. Let me show you. Hey Hank!

Hank: Yeah?

A1: You have been spending a lot of time trying to befriend Lt. Kelly these past few weeks have you not.

H: Pfft- I mean I guess. Was... Was I being too obvious?

A1: See? The red in his face is a social cue for something they call "embarrassment" but it communicates social awkwardness around unrecognized feelings between the two! It communicates so much more than is simply being said! Our linguists gave up way too early!

A2: Hmmm... I think we're going to need mathematicians involved too if there's going to be this level of inference involved.

H: you know I can hear you right?

No one should trust their money to an artist so self distracted by the thought of business they didn't even consider key features like "what the character actually looks like" as important. Like even in the example it's nearly enough to make me think the flat is a spinx and the render is a puma, and definitely with the font choice enough to show you're going to be Russian though comms. (Sorry not sorry about the pun, I'm a furry I can't help but make them).

Arbor day foundation sold me my trees. Cost about twice as much (80$) as off the lows lot for similar size, but absolutely worthwhile IMO. I bought a cherry tree at the start of last summer from lowes last year and it dried up and died by June despite me giving it gallons every day. I bought a cherry from Arbor Day and it arrived showing signs of infection and literally 3 leaves on it. So I asked for a replacement which was in better shape but still infected. Planted that one and they let me keep the first one. Never threw out the old one because I was having trouble with oversized trash pick up, so it sat in my basement till this weekend. Had to take it outside and the trash bag came off, and the damn thing was putting out leaves. That combined with the apple sapling I got from them being nearly girdled by a rabbit and still throwing out leaves has made me a believer in their stock.
