Now THAT'S what I call a shitpost!

Show me the untagged gore. You can't, because there isn't any. I already screenshotted the website that that QR code links to and showed you. You could screenshot the movie that the website contains a link to, but that movie contains its own graphic content tag, so that doesn't count.

I believe you're engaging in bad faith all the time. I believe you exist in bad faith. The only reason I haven't blocked you is because interacting with you is a fun little exercise, like walking down the street and kicking a particularly argumentative soccer ball who always has the worst possible takes

I actually do contest that it's gore. This is what you see when you open the website. Where's the gore?

If your concern is that there's gore in that there video, then good news, there's a huge unmissable warning at the start of it.

Again I ask. Why do you think this shouldn't be allowed? Who is negatively affected by this?

So your problem isn't that someone might see gore that they weren't prepared for, but rather that the warning isn't placed before you even see a link to the site. What exactly is the problem here? Why do you think this shouldn't be allowed?

Why are you like this, commie? Why are you like this? Do you exist specially to be wrong about everything?

This is literally the first frame in the movie in the QR code. The first frame. The first 3 entire seconds. Why are you like this?

Nolan would strangle this person with a strip of 70mm film if he saw this poat

No, it's very clearly telegraphed gore.

Nobody would take me seriously if I demanded that Walmart keep their animal corpses in a closed room so that I don't have to see them. Why should people take you seriously when you ask vegans to do the same?

If you think that's awful, take a walk through your local grocery store. It's all the same stuff, just packaged more nicely

There was also my gnome divination wizard. He's 230 years old, and his last assignment before graduating wizard school with a Master's in Divination is to find a valid use for True Strike. His best bet is to make it to level 17, and simply Wish for True Strike to do something different.

Fun fact: he has received degrees in Evocation, Conjuration, Enchantment, Illusion, Abjuration, and Transmutation before. It's just that spending decades sitting in a school strips away a lot of experience (and levels). His secret goal that even the DM doesn't know about is to go back and learn necromancy last. It's not that he wants to become a lich, but if he ever does, he'll want to have a well-rounded magical education

Bonus: Nanfoodle's True Strike

Upon reaching level 17, Nanfoodle will cast Wish, and beseech Mystra to turn True Strike into the following:

Nanfoodle's True Strike

Casting time: 1 bonus action (requires concentration)

Range: 30 feet

Components: S

Duration: up to 1 round

You extend your hand and point a finger at a target in range. Your magic grants you a brief insight into the target's defenses. While you are concentrating on this spell, you may use a reaction to gain advantage on one attack roll against the target. You may choose to use this reaction after rolling to attack, but only before the result is determined. After gaining advantage in this way once, the spell ends.

Most people attempt to fix true strike by turning it into a bonus action, but that takes it too far. It makes it too good. So now it also costs a reaction, which I think fixes it. Instead of being flatly better than other bonus action options, it's now competing with Uncanny Dodge and Shield and pportunity attacks and so on.

Reminder that the problem with Islam isn't that they force women to cover themselves, it's that apostasy is punished so severely that secular women would rather put up with the burqas. If a woman genuinely believes in Islam, she should have the right to practice her religion.

As an American, I don't have a whole lot to be proud of, but I'll be damned if I don't think every country deserves First Amendment rights

Editor's note: this is a post about American Independence Day celebrations

Alright, I'm going to launch explosives around your house. For several hours. Yes it is dangerous and terrible for wildlife and the environment. And yes your pets will get sick from eating the debris and you will feel terrorized inside your own home.

No you can't opt out of it. Everyone is doing it and frankly it's weird that you don't want to.

No you can't be the one launching the explosives you need a license for that. You can however launch these marginally smaller ones though. Yeah just whenever you want. 2am sounds great.

So anyway, fireworks were a mistake and it's never too early to start reminding you of that.

 

Tired of scrambling to till, water, fertilize, and plant several hundred crops on the first day of every season? You don't have to! You can achieve your farm's maximum efficiency while delaying planting certain crops by several days.

This might be relatively niche. I like to grow some of every available crop every season, devoting at least half a pressurized iridium sprinkler to each one. But I also don't like farming until 2 AM and passing out before I finish planting. So I made this spreadsheet!

It accounts for every combination of speed growth modifiers, lists the maximum number of harvests for each crop, per plot, per season/year, and lists the last day you can plant to still achieve that maximum harvest. Hopefully someone somewhere can gain some value from this

Taken with a Canon EOS 550D with an 80mm lens on an equatorial tracking mount, under Bortle 4 skies. 30 thirty second lights, 50 darks, 50 flats.

Stacked in Siril following the manual pre-processing tutorial. Stretched also in Siril using Asinh Transformation. I set the stretch factor to 30, and the black point to 0.005, then exported the image as a jpeg.

I think she looks a bit better than my attempt at Orion. You can sort of make out the Ring nebula.

Also, I'm pretty sure that's a comet over to the right of Sulafat. Tiny green cloud of consistent size, drifted a few arcminutes over the ~20 minutes I was capturing these images

 

It's Brinks, so it falls apart if you look at it funny. Still proud of this shitty little pick and wrench. I made them out of a busted windshield wiper and a couple metal files on my lunch break at work

Absolutely brutal. Can someone explain the answers?

 

A while back, someone made a post on an AITAH type subreddit, then updated it saying it was generated with AI. Like 3/4 of the comments left after the update were responding to the story as if there wasn't a big bold THIS STORY IS FAKE update at the top. I've been trying to find this post again for weeks, but no variation of "reddit AITAH AI generated post" offers anything useful on any search engines. Am I remembering wrong? Did I dream this up???

UPDATE: Thank you phlegmy for finding the post!
