I hate AI, I really do.
It is useless and waste a tremendous amount of resources.
Just today while studying Chinese I was looking for some hanzi online and Googleโs AI gave me the answer: ยซThe characters that make up โๅคง็ซโ are ๅคง็ซยป
No shit Sherlock, thank you.

Today I ate a crรชpes with Nutella with a double cappuccino for no particular reason whatsoever.
It was very yummy ๐
Got the opportunity to visit the Shinhanga exhibit in Roma curated by professor Paola Scrolavezza.
I really enjoyed it even tho it was a bit small and there were little to no explicative panels. My boyfriend gave 5 stars to the experience as I ยซshould really be a museum guideยป lol
Screenshot of a post saying historians are having their minds blown daily these days.
I don't think this is true for materialist historians who've done research on the 1920s and 1930s and seen in primary materials how fascism takes hold at first gradually, then very quickly, and suddenly all the norms and rules are gone and anything that the leader decrees is willed into existence.
Yeah thatโs probably why every year more or less 3,000+ people die every year in the Mediterranean Sea with the complicity of governments ๐ค
I wonder what the number would be if there were no NGOs such as Open Arms, Sea-Watch, etcโฆ

We Europeans shouldnโt talk about human rights after the new Migration and Asylum Pact.
Or, we should talk about human rights because weโre the best in the world to crush them.
I live in a city in which most of the local shops are property of few mafia families.
Everyday I have to choose between fueling a capitalistic dystopia or help horrendous people in bribing politicians and buying weapons to threat journalists.
I hate my country.

A digital illustration, fan art of Kirby. It shows Kirby standing in an open grassy field on a bright, sunny summer day. He is looking around as he holds the rim of his yellow straw hat with one hand and a large bug net with his other hand. He has a green bug cage slung over his body, like a little sling bag.
Kirbyโs summer adventure! ๐๐

Another clip from our recent emergency meeting on โArchaeology and Apartheidโ. Here Jen Baird explains how archaeology is used to justify occupation and colonialism.

thatโs only half right. On 24th December 1991 Boris Yeltsin sent a letter to the then UN secretary general asking โThe RF maintains full responsibility for all the rights and obligations of the USSR under the Charter of the UNโ.
It was approved by all member states of the UN unanimously.
This is completely non-historical, the USSR (= the whole republic) signed the UN declaration on January 1st 1942 along with China, US and UK.

Youโre 100% right, but whatโs the connection with the statement โUkraine was a founding memberโ?
Because I see no connection tbhโฆ
The USSR was a republic organised as a federal state. Saying that โUkraine was a founding member of the UNโ is as wrong as saying โUzbekistan was a founding member of the UNโ (Uzbekistan succeeded the Khorezm PSR).
Youโre a bit confused on what the USSR wasโฆ
Iโve finished reading the last work of Dr. @eikeexner.com (it was amazing) and I couldnโt stop thinking about what my Chinese art professor said during her first lesson ยซWe donโt say Chinese art, we say art in Chinaยป. This concept really seemed fitting also for manga during the reading

Is it only my impression or Europe-made Mickey Mouse comics have some pretty strong political connotations that US-made Mickey Mouse comics donโt have?
This cover of a Greek issue is so powerful that I think it wouldnโt have been published in the USโฆ

Every Junji Ito anime adaptation showcases how comics aren't some throwaway stepping stone to animation and cinema, and that we should stop treating them as such. Comics, like prose novels, are their own medium that can convey things animation and video cannot.

Cover art for the Italian Mickey Mouse magazine issue n.2077
What I love about garage sales is the opportunity to find comics that had some artistic intuitions that today would be considered โtoo wacky to be publishedโ.
