Lese gerade wieder vermehrt Texte, wie erschreckend es ist, welche "normalen" Männer, normal aussehend Frau Pelicot vergewaltigt haben. Und dann auch noch Männer, die gerade erst Vater geworden sind oder schon Töchter haben.

Aber ich verstehe diese Texte nicht. Wer soll das denn sonst sein?
Anne mastodon (AP)
Männer üben Gewalt aus. In der Mehrheit Männer. Und das nicht aus einer irgendwie anders markierten Position heraus, sondern im Alltag. Eben noch Zähne geputzt, Feierabend gemacht, Brötchen gekauft, sich im Freundeskreis oder online als Toptyp verkauft. "Normale" Männer, in fast jedem Fall.

Also setzt euch hin, insbesondere Väter & erzählt euren Kindern davon. Wie mein Vater. Jung waren wir Töchter da, als er sagte: "Ganz normale Männer machen eklige Sachen, euch werden Dinge widerfahren. Ihr seid nie Schuld!! Erzählt mir jede Kleinigkeit, ich bin da!"
Und so war's. 100% Verlass drauf!

Yesterday, a member of the AfD German far-right political party drove his car into a Christmas market killing many and injuring many more.

Here's our vice president-elect and unelected president-elect praising the AfD in case you still don't know what we're up against over the next few years.
JD Vance 
It’s so dangerous for people to control their borders. So so dangerous. The dangerous level is off the charts. 

 lvana Stradner @ivanastradner-1d 
This is SO dangerous. If this is not clear enough- that’s what he also wants to do in USA.

 If the AfD wins in Germany, we are going to have a very different world. AfD is not only dangerous for Europe but also for USA. Too bad that many people can’t connect the dots...

And.. Russia’s Africa corps & Syrian opetations have been stoking the wars that created the refugees that helped the far right grab power in central Europe in the first place..

And AfD, Musk & Vance just seem to LOVE Russia..

If it’s any more obvious that there’s a feedback loop at work in here, it’s kind of hard to point it out more clearly.

Russia weaponised refugee creation, because it had been fighting a war against the west for more than a decade now.

Прикольно, що сеанс повинен був бути англійською, але його пустили болгарською. Хтось з глядачів пішов пожалівся та через 5-10 хвилин показу перемкнули на англійську та перемотали на місце, де зупинили показ) Вперше таке, хоча рідко що одночасно двома мовами показують.

#Mufasa: #TheLionKing хороший фільм. Перевершив очікування, враховуючи умови, творці зробили все, що могли.

Картинка гарна, видовищна, леви стали більш виразними в плані емоції ніж у фільмі 2019 року.

Музика ок, але половина мелодій це музика Ганса Циммера з оригіналу, що викликає мурашки. Шкода, що нові треки помітно поступаються. Пісні також ок, місцями навіть більше ніж ок)

Головні герої цікаві, Муфаса й Така зазнають змін і їх можна зрозуміти. Голос Муфаси Аарона П'єра норм, але дуууже далеко до Джейс Ерл Джонса слова котрого відкривають картину.

Келвін Гаррісон-молодший добре впорався зі своєю ролью, до Джеремі Айронса, авжеж, далеко, але помітно краще Чіветела Еджиофора.

Остання сцена між братами може притянута, але в емоційному плані працює та не дуже розходиться з тим, якими вони були показані до того. Цей момент отримання прізвиська викличе дискусії)

Більше питань викликає саме ім'я Така, чому королевича назвали відходами? В книжному каноні ім'я мало сенс, а тут вихде окрім імені нічого більше не взяли з книжок.

Злодії, білі леви аутсайдери, типові діснеївські доволі плоскі та їх мотивацію пояснюють словами. Але тут стандартно на роль головного злодія, Кіроса, взяли крутого актора, що витягує персонажа, Мадс Міккельсен проявив себе краще ніж в Докторі Стренджі.

Переінакшеня історії братів і розкриття аутсайдерів можуть полегшити втілення екранізації сиквелу оригіналу - без цього приквелу занадто багато питань у сиквелі, що можуть зіпсувати враження.

Цікаво, кого в кіно-канон зараз ввели? Кайона чи когось іншого, кого вб'є Зіра? Хоча, знаючи Дісней, то скоріше перший варіант)

Загалом, порадувало, що у фільмі виражено багато хороших різних ідей. Промова Муфаси у фіналі викликала мурашки по шкірі навіть без відповідної музики. Було б чудово, якби цим проникнулося та слідувало більше людей, особливо потрібно це українцям зараз, хоча американцям також не завадить.
Постер фільму "Король Лев" зображує величного лева, що стоїть на засніженій горі в оточенні інших левів та левеняти. Назва фільму "Король Лев" помітно виділяється вгорі білим текстом. На задньому плані - засніжений гірський пейзаж, а назва написана чорним кольором

The Hole Beneath the Fence

Frankie, the fox squirrel, ventured underneath the hole beneath the fence. Frankie's friends told him that the place beyond place beyond the hole was filled with lots of food, just there for the taking. But they warned that the place was also filled with danger, because there were two dogs, named Ben and Charlie, who regularly patrolled the area. Once under the fence Frankie noticed that the dogs weren't there, but Sam the house sparrow was on the ground atop a low brick retaining wall. Frankie asked Sam, "where is all of the food that I heard so much about?" Sam said, "look up." But just as Frankie looked up, Ben and Charlie came running out of the door to the house and Frankie had to flee back under the hole beneath the fence.

"The image shows an eastern fox squirrel (Sciurus niger) standing on its hind legs and looking up towards an unseen bird feeder. The squirrel's tail is bushy, and its fur is a mix of gray and reddish-brown. To the right of the squirrel, on a low brick retaining wall, is a house sparrow (Passer domesticus). The sparrow is small with brown and white feathers.

The background includes green foliage and a white fence, creating a natural setting. This scene is intriguing as it captures two different species interacting within the same environment, highlighting their behaviors and coexistence." - Copilot with edits

Yes. I've been trying to get a Covid booster before the floor falls out of society in January, but yesterday the pharmacist reiterated it's not yet six months since my last one.

Which is not actually a medical requirement, it's an INSURANCE requirement. I simply can't assume there will even be vaccines after January 20. Or health insurance that covers anything.

1.25M is not much in seed money—so not really a win here.

It’s enough to keep the lights on for a year if the main devs are willing to eat a whole lot of instant noodles.

And due to the previous PR disaster, I suspect that money came with a whole lot of conditions.

I don't understand the [in]sanity op US politics anymore.
The machanics of it...
Am I to understand that one [1] tweet of a non-elected billionair can overturn the entire politics of the GOAT #Democrcies on the planet ?
That ONE [1] tweet can abolish cancer research for kids ?
Or that othewise the government [financials] would shut down ?
Or that otherwise that one crazy puny man would sabotage the re-election of politicians ?
It would mean that the GOAT #Democrcies is no more... it died... has demised... went the way of the flesh ?

And THAT I don't. It's an economic system based upon exploitation for raw materials and labour. In short: money as long as you don't have to work for it.
I cannot believe that even a decent person could be on top of such a system.

One hell of an exhaustive infographic about the video game industry.
  • Console gaming is contracting
  • PC gaming stayed put, which is surprising because this year was all about indies
  • Mobile gaming is now 50% of all gaming
But also, physical games are dying and only make a tiny sliver of revenue compared to digital distribution.
