That lake was mine and I peed in it.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What's the greatest extent (as in the most amount of time) to which you've eaten something past its expiration date with the food still being enjoyable?

3·2 years agoWe don’t just need better propulsion. The human body needs gravity. Not to mention shielding from radiation. Both of those things are doable, but I doubt there’s the political will in Washington to keep astronauts safe. If China planned on sending people to Mars in the future then America would strap a few people into a rocket propelled shoebox and honor the completely broken human when/if they get home.

3·3 years agoI mean…you kinda said it there. European fascism can trace its lineage to European Christian kings, empires, and popes. But that’s fascism born of Europe. As others have said fascism has been and is practiced elsewhere and with different religious and cultural influences.
Christo is merely an aesthetic modifier. It tells you what surface level flavor of fascism to expect. Remember that Nazis used language and themes of socialism in their aesthetic as well. It’s why we still refer to them as Nazis and not solely fascists.
Though I understand your point. Why not call a christo-fascist and a Nazi the same thing. You certainly can; no one’s going to stop you. At its core fascism is always the same malignant stage of capitalistic rot. It’s practitioners will use whatever aesthetics they wants. Whatever works. Some may find it useful to describe the aesthetic quality of one fascism to expose its core similarities to other instances of fascism.

Lol this guy thinks a socialist society should have a middle class. Realistically they’re a goddamn moron.
Don’t get me wrong; I like the idea, but this is AI generated art trying to pass itself off as human-made.
Even if the artist used AI to assist with the work, it’s pretty sloppy. Look at the teeth, the angle of the background rockets, the weird spaceship on the lapel. At least make it look good if you’re using AI.

The Commonwealth Saga (Pandora’s Star and Judas Unchained) by Peter F. Hamilton would make a great serialized TV drama.

Who cares if Elon worked in the US without a visa? Thousands of immigrants do the same. The US government doesn’t want to do its due diligence with the immigration process. They have purposely make the immigration process circuitous in order to create a second-class, undocumented, cheap pool of labor. But as thanks to austerity and gutting of the nation’s social safety net, their need for a scapegoat grows. Immigrants fill that role for now. Giving immigrants due process of law goes against their objective of pitting them against the documented working class. But ICE isn’t going black bag and deport Elon. He is a part of the owning class, and while they might charge him with visa fraud, Elon will be afforded an opportunity to defend himself, either in court or with his immense capital.
