Which is funnier?

As someone whose contact with English is mostly by reading, this made me sure I’m likely pronouncing a bunch of words wrong in my mind.

Can’t USians register to vote in the primaries of both parties?

Not to defend these things, I also don’t think they work, but the simplest argument is that they work on a metaphysical frequency/energy/whatever, so a physical instrument wouldn’t be able to detect it.

I agree.

But “Political Spectrum” is bullshit anyway, most of today’s issues don’t fit a one-dimensional left-vs-right line.

Indirectly, yes, but not far. The instability created by people fighting over the scraps of his conquests allowed the rise of the Roman empire, and people fighting over their scraps throughout the Middle Ages led to the creation of the modern empires.

Calling the current Brazilian government leftist nowadays is a bit of a stretch.

I posted this question on Mastodon some time ago:

Is there any modern geopolitical issue that can’t be blamed on Alexander “the great”?

More like open source engine for Minecraft-like games and more.

Depends on the type of tiredness.
Physical? Yes.
Mental? The reason will also probably keep me awake.
Sickness? I’m tired of staying in bed.

An aquarium near where I live has a tank just for Phytoplankton and another for Zooplankton.

But it also has regular aquarium stuff.

Português brasileiro fluente/nativo.

Read/Write fluent English, a bit broken speech.

Ich kann ein bisschen Deutsch lesen/verstehen. Es war meine erste Sprache, aber ich habe das meiste davon vergessen, als ich Portugiesisch lernte.

What are they gonna do? Allow the police to put a fresh coat of red on the Red Square?

I like to think that anything that CAN be art, if it can be meaningful for someone.

A pebble might be ignored by most people, but a geologist might be fascinated by it, I think that becomes art.

Even in something worked-on at the very least the artist is the observer, and they will put into it the meaning they perceive in it, and if they never share with anyone it’s still art.

My opinion.

While I think it’s extremely overhyped, looking at some “AI” art communities it’s clear that at least some put a lot of effort on it, going over many many iterations and tweaking the program and the results.

And anyway art is “made” by the observer, not the artist, even the results of natural processes can be art.

(AI in quotes because these tools don’t deserve the name, at best High Coherence Media Transformers)

No because there’s always the possibility to use one of the extra Soyuz from the station.

I’m from Brazil and I’ve never seen this recipe. Probably some regional thing, Brazil is huge.

While it was not such a good movie, TLJ was an ok-ish Star Wars movie, and by far the best of the sequels.
