I thought it’d be interesting to digitally create the drawings and written accounts of the Nuremberg UFO incident

Edit: take a look at the original drawing of the incident.

...her finding the Elder Wand, examining it like a strange old stick… then casually pointing it at a tree to see what happens. Turns out that was probably a bad idea. 😅

Die Argumentation ist eigentlich ziemlich simpel:
Jedes Herrschaftssystem braucht Menschen, über die es herrschen kann.

Es braucht Menschen, die arbeiten.
Menschen, die Steuern zahlen.
Menschen, die konsumieren.
Menschen, die Schulden aufnehmen.
Menschen, die Armeen/Militärs/Korps bilden.
Menschen, die für die Interessen anderer in Kriege ziehen.

Und vor allem braucht es immer wieder eine neue Generation, die das Ganze weiterträgt.
Was passiert also, wenn eine Generation kollektiv sagt:
Nein. Nach uns kommt niemand mehr.
=>

Dann gibt es irgendwann keine Steuerzahler mehr. Keine Soldaten. Keine Arbeiter. Keine Untertanen. Keine zukünftigen Konsumenten. Niemanden, dem man noch irgendein gesellschaftliches Spiel verkaufen kann.
Ein König ohne Untertanen ist einfach nur ein Typ mit einer Krone.
Ein Staat ohne Bevölkerung ist nur noch ein Stück Land mit Verwaltungsgebäuden.
Milliardäre können Billionen besitzen – wenn irgendwann niemand mehr da ist, der für sie arbeitet, ihre Produkte kauft oder ihr Eigentumssystem anerkennt, ist ihr Reichtum bedeutungslos.
Herrscher existieren nur, weil es Beherrschte gibt.
Das Interessante daran: Dafür braucht man keine Revolution, keine Waffen und keinen Aufstand. Man muss niemanden stürzen. Man erzeugt einfach keine nächste Generation, über die weiter geherrscht werden kann.
Und als Nebeneffekt würden Ressourcenverbrauch, Flächenverbrauch und menschlicher Druck auf Ökosysteme langfristig ebenfalls verschwinden.
Natürlich wäre das gleichzeitig das Ende der Menschheit. Genau deshalb ist es wahrscheinlich eine der radikalsten Formen von Macht, die ein Individuum überhaupt besitzt: die Entscheidung, ob das System eine nächste Generation bekommt.
Das dürfte tatsächlich eine ziemlich unbeliebte Meinung sein.

A lot of people who aren’t white mainly feel comfortable with people of their own race, and this leads them to alienating themselves in places where they’re not the majority.

But because they believe they can’t be bigoted, they think it’s everyone else’s fault.

As a result, integration is more difficult.

i know this topic has been discussed many times over, but i’m on my first watch of season 9 and this whole drugging accusation is egregious. we have always known that phaedra lies, but this season she takes it to another level. to spread this kind of rumor and continue to pretend to be a friend to kandi is insane. and porsha repeatedly insisting that it’s true with a smile on her face while she has no evidence is just as evil. i think that’s what strikes me the most about these two. not only do they lie, but they do so intentionally and will slander their castmates with a smile on their faces. i’ve known people like this irl and i recognize that look in their eyes. i honestly might stop watching cause this is difficult to stomach. i’m sure kandi’s not perfect but these two are really something else.

The Gretzinger et al. 2022 paper seems pretty conclusive that the English are a plurality Anglo-Saxon In heritage, with most of the non-Anglo-Saxon DNA, at least in the southeast of England, being French-like from medieval era and not native Briton. Why is it that such findings don't seem to have been widely disseminated and understood by many people? including people highly interested in genetics and history?

I think there is an issue with science communication on this issue, I don't remember the findings being explained clearly in the media at all, and the fact that English people are in fact mostly descended from migration era settlers is surely interesting and salient - especially as the paper gives estimates of native Briton ancestry as less than 20% in some regions. Yet I still see people posting theories from 2002 from Sykes and posting the 2015 era 2 way model studies like 'people of the British isles' everywhere.

The idea of English people as 20-40% Anglo Saxon and 60-80% Native Briton seems to have been ingrained into so many people and is proving a difficult illusion to break.

It is just surprising that such a massive paper from the largest and most respected genetics laboratory cannot get any penetration into popular consciousness.

مبدئيا كده انا مش عارف انتم ليه بتكرهون المثليين بكراهية شديدة للدرجة دي

انا شايفكم عرب بيكرهون مجتمع الميم واهو قلتها بشكل جريء

Never score on Walmart Wednesdays but luckily scored on the new raffle system. I just had to get 5, couldn't pass on the opportunity, don't hate me

I was a fan of this channel and this is a great example on how to alienate viewers.

I mean, there have been sets were i expected nothing and ended being decent (OTJ), sets i expected to suck... and sucked (marvel, tmnt, spiderman), and sets that i expected to be good and effectively, were good.

The hobbit is the one set i expected to be good and ended being... not great.

Inflated prices, low power except some idiotically good chase cards, the terrible one ring reprint, short set, not great in limited, the insistence in a terrible mechanic (amass), the focus on minor tribes without enough support before... while still not giving them enough support to actually make them attractive.

I know opening packs is not wise per se, but in this set is has beenspecially bad, because other than the 5 chase cards there was effectively nothing i would use in a deck. So if you didn't hit something of monetary value, you couldn't even get excited over it maybe being a good fit in X or Y commander deck.

I am the only one very disappointed?
