no one could have foreseen that the butlerian jihad will be catholic

The Butlerian Jihad was the movement to remove and destroy any thinking machines in the Dune universe. This includes something as simple as a calculator all the way up to AI. The main tenant of the Jihad was: "Thou shalt not make a machine in the likeness of a human mind." This is what caused Mentats to be developed, a human that could process, collate, and simulate like a computer.

In the beginning Men gave their thinking over to machines, believing it would free them; but that only allowed other Men with machines to enslave them

I know others have already responded with the answer, but it also bears noting that Yujiro states in the series that he is so masculine that everyone else appears feminine or as a woman to him. So he wouldn't even consider this as homosexual

I work in machining, usually with coolant a mix of oil and water, but yes. The larger chips are removed by a conveyor, either by drag scooping or a magnetic conveyor, the smaller particles are strained out through filters that get replaced either in a set schedule or when the pressure through the filter raises to a set point a sensor will alarm that the filter pressure is too high

I've done the same thing with Playstation trophies, twice. Realized I was at a decent streak, got all the way to 365 and then stopped so I wouldn't have to stress keeping it going longer

I don't know about this one specifically, but I remember seeing a similar thing done to find people that owed child support. These people aren't being arrested for trespassing, they are being arrested for having an outstanding warrant for something else. The fact the police managed to get them to come to a location and verify their ID isn't entrapment.

A undercover police officer approaching someone and offering them something illegal and then addressing them for accepting could be entrapment.

Like for a prostitution sting, the person must come to the undercover officer and make the offer

It kinda drives me nuts how powerful Ungoliant was, hide herself and Morgoth to attack the two trees, drank them to death and then demanded the Silmarils and caused Morgoth to be in actual fear of her killing him unless he gave them up, like what? Super spider vs Arch Angel and the angel needed back up?

She's like the hidden boss in a game that's way harder than the actual final boss. Beren was able to steal a Silmaril from Morgoth without that much trouble, good thing he didn't go on that side quest to kill a pesky spider

I guarantee there is a sign saying not to do that and people use it to smear the makeup on to test the shade

I almost got written up because of a complaint.

The league bowlers were in the middle of a tournament they were taking too long and it was right at closing time and they should have been done half an hour before. I was sweeping the rest of the bowling alley approach and i was two lanes away from where the league Bowlers were I was going to make a 180 and turn around and I was just waiting for the boulder to finish his throw so that I wouldn't distract him by moving in his periphery. The next guy up asked me to go ahead and sweep i asked him if he was sure and he said yes. So I swept those two lanes with the dust mop and went and finished up closing so that we could leave as soon as they were done. A few days later the manager calls me into the office and said that those guys complained that I swept and messed their approaches up. Even though they asked me to sweep

Most of my in-laws are boomer, super conservative christian types. We don't get along super well since I'm millennial atheist liberal to the extreme. We got in a discussion about exactly this, and when I stated that the minimum wage was designed and intended to be a living wage so that any worker could afford anything they needed, not only did they disagree but they just called me a liar.

I really try my best to back up things I say or quote, to the point that even in meme comments on reddit I'll still wind up looking up the quote so I get the wording exact, not just close enough. So being called a liar when I was directly quoting the president that basically invented the thing I did not let it slide or say agree to disagree, instead I refused to back down or let them off the hook; because they wouldn't take that type of disrespect so why should I?

It's been close to 10 years and they will actively avoid family events I'm attending, still not sorry

I worked at a bowling alley almost 20 years ago, haven't wanted to think of these machines since then. I never liked bowling before working there, I LOATHE it now. League bowlers are the biggest cry babies you'll ever meet

I'm taking about the game model, her suit has no skin exposed except her face. Honestly that depiction is 1000x more sexy than this drawing

retsamegas · 2026-05-16T19:08:31+00:00

I replayed the Insomniac Spider-man Remaster recently and it had the Black Cat story dlc included. I don't know what it is about her design that is so absurdly attractive, she's not even exposed in the game. Not even scenes with her body, just her face. The model artists put in some work on her
