I AM A DWARF AND I’M DIGGING A HOLE 💪⛏️

Tons of !FUN! inbound!

Nah, that’s more of an inappropriate noodle.

Crossposting across instances is a thing, so go ahead and do just that 👍

Now that’s an innocent bandwagon I can get aboard.

Thank mr skeltal

Just hold on for a while. If those deer keep at it, at some point the wolves will multiply and become a greater force to control the deer population.

Unless they’re the same sex. In that case, you’re shafted.

What a total dad joke. I’m crossposting.

Every sixty seconds, a woman in Britain gives birth. She. Must. Be. Exhausted.

You had me in the first half, not gonna lie xD

I’ve seen one take that (maybe over-) simplifies to that there’s a wave of anti-establishmentalism, and while the best party to embody that under FPTP (e.g. UK, USA) is the other big party, many European parliamentary systems have proportional voting systems that allow smaller alternative parties. And the alt right sells a load of coherent, anti-establishmentalist talking points.

Dutch examples: PVV? The problem is Islamic immigrants. FvD? The problem is the Deep State^TM!

And although a lot of problems that we are experiencing (skyrocketing housing prices & cost of living, worsening labour conditions, millennials and gen Z/Alpha being worse off than their parents) are the result of the right, the left does not have a thing to sell as easily as the alt right has been able to.

I also saw the turnout polls for the Dutch vote. It was interesting to see that the portion of people who voted progressive in the last national elections and didn’t show up for the EU elections is smaller than the portion that voted fascist/populist.

Same-ish for NL. GL/PvdA continues to be the biggest, FvD is gone, all the Christians and VVD are down a seat each, VOLT got a seat and D66 is up a seat.

Unfortunately PVV grew by six seats tho, sooo…

I had the opposite. When we learned about magnets in high school, it was pretty much told assuming the atomic and crystalline scale of natural magnets to be a black box. Meanwhile, the instructions on electromagnets gave me enough to go off for me to extend that down to said crystalline and atomic level. So when I stepped to my teachers, claiming I had a theory and enthusiastically explaining that spinning electrons created an electric current, which in turn create magnetic fields at the atomic level, which can then line up with neighbouring ones to become a whole magnet, they responded “yeah, that is exactly how magnets work.”

This is the kind of parenting that may lead to kids leaving home & disappearing from the parents’ lives the day they turn eighteen.

Am I seeing this right? Are you calling one of the defining works of Fantasy literature a “Christian book?”

Thank you for reminding me that this exists 😃

This meme has a weird amount of Terraria energy to it

It’s time for a little story…

It’s definitely Storytime… *Nightwish song starts playing*

Apparently such a process helps in producing some really good glass.

I mean, xkcd numbers its comics sequentially, and he’s well into the 2000’s now, so a 1xy comic is ancient. Looks like at times, old xkcd was brutal.
