A bunny witch peers into a cauldron, in a tower at night. On the surface of the water in the cauldron, a bunny adventuring party is trekking through the forest. The bunny witch watches the adventurers nefariously

Prompt game screenshot. I asked the person playing the ai to draw Daffy Duck in the style of Picasso. They drew a cubist line art duck AND wrote "QUACK" at the top.

Absolute legend. I'm going to print this and put in on my wall.

I don't watch through Apple, so I'm a huge fan of the F1 Multiviewer app. And yep for me it was absolutely a case of "once you use it, there's no going back to just one feed per race." πŸ˜‚

I will also say that it’s a bit wild to me that no press freedom organization or professional journalistic association has tried to contact me or even put out a statement here.

I mean Jesus Christ. A little solidarity from institutions would be nice here!

Black and white photo of four kittens spilling out of a basket that seems to be partially full of sticks or vines or something. They’re all short haired, and there is a black haired tuxedo, two tabbies, and what looks like a white and calico. Two of them look remarkably grumpy, and the other two seemed kind of blank and possibly confused.

Historians agree that the real Pandora’s Box was likely a basket of grumpy kittens. Postcard from my collection, mailed 1904.

The people reacting with "they don't understand Walter White was the bad guy" are missing a lot. To their target audience, Skyler was the bad guy. It's about power and violence, and whiny women who don't want power exercised for the sake of personal gain and ego are among their villains.

Utahraptor: You're gonna have to walk me through that one.
T-Rex: Happily!

T-Rex: You can take glasses off and clean them - buying you VALUABLE SECONDS to respond that non-glasses guys don't have! Plus, you can whip them off as a form of punctuation - and even point with them to REALLY underline what you're saying! This grants access to levels of rhetoric beyond my wildest dreams!!

none of his friends mention how hard it'll be for him to get them on his face, but that's because they're all happy to help him whenever he wants. OH SNAP, WHOLESOME MOMENTS IN DINOSAUR COMICS!!

In ttrpgs, I think you should do the RP and then roll to see how well it went.

People seem to think you fail at something because you weren’t eloquent enough.

Sometimes, no matter how good your argument, no matter how impassioned your speech, you’re not gonna reach them

Honestly my favourite part of the story is that the customs officer on my returnβ€”who was a different one from my entry because it was a couple hours walk and the shift had changedβ€”was all "oh nice, you got your ice cream! Enjoy!"

This was a few months pre-9/11, it was truly a different time. πŸ₯²
