"I was born and raised as an American citizen but Israel is my homeland" Literally a Measurehead bit.

A quote from Disco Elysium.

YOU - "So you were born and raised on the islands, before you moved to Revachol?"
MEASUREHEAD - "I AM A DESCENDANT. THE NARROW STREETS OF ULUNBUIR ARE WITH ME IN MY GENETIC DREAMS, I SEE YOUNG SEMENESE WOMEN WALK INTO THE GREY MASS ON *ILE DU FANTÔME*, WAITING ON IMMACULATE CONCEPTION FROM THE PALE."
YOU - "So, you *did* come from the islands?"
MEASUREHEAD - "NO." He cranes his head. "I HAVE HEARD ABOUT IT. ON THE RADIO."
YOU - "So you're not really Semenese, you're just from Revachol."
MEASUREHEAD - "I'M FROM COURON..." He changes tactics: "AND NO, IT IS NOT *JUST* IN REVACHOL. THIS CITY IS CENTRAL TO THE SEMENESE STRATEGY. SPREADING THROUGH ITS TRADE NETWORKS OUR CULTURE WILL DOMINATE THE WORLD."

Lived in Texas all my life but I grew up on so much media from all over the place that the only thing the test can definitively say is that I am not Midwestern.

They probably meant it like 🤗 but it always comes across more like this to me:

The facehugger from Alien, a long skinny scorpion creature with 8 long legs, the perfect length for wrapping around the head of its victim.

The tip of something is the part on the end of it. The foreskin is typically the furthest-protruding part of a natural penis, especially when not erect. Therefore the foreskin, not the glans, ia the tip of a natural penis.

The definition of "tip", noun.

1. The usually pointed end of something. Example: a pencil tip.

2. A small piece or part of something serving as an end, cap, or point.

Alternate form: "tipped", adjective.

LRT: Something Mamdani gets that I think most politicians don't is that the way to combat the right-wing media caricaturing you as something you aren't isn't to go onto their media and debate them, it's to drown them out with public proof of your real agenda. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

An excerpt from the linked article.

The reforms are also at odds with the hysterical caricature of Mamdani being manufactured by Donald Trump, the Republican party, and rightwing media. The right has repeatedly depicted the mayor, and a wave of his fellow electeds from the Democratic Socialists of America, as raging anti-business radicals. Appearing on Fox News in May, Bruce Blakeman, the Republican nominee for New York governor, alleged that if “you own… a “small business, a grocery store, a bodega, Zohran Mamdani wants to take your property.”

“THE LEFT’S PLAN: CONTROL AND CONFISCATE,” read the Fox News chyron beneath Blakeman.

The small business initiatives Mamdani announced this week, however, amount to a sweeping program of deregulation – a term most often associated with free-market conservatives. Some of Mamdani’s opponents couldn’t help but praise him.

Look at every purple name in this excerpt. Otto Hahn - Resigned in protest of antisemitic law Fritz Strassman - Blacklisted Lise Meitner - Kicked out Otto Frisch - Left in 1939; prevented from returning by war Leo Szilard - Fled in 1933 Eugene Wigner - Left in 1930 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manhatt...

An excerpt from the Wikipedia page on the Manhattan Project.

The discovery of nuclear fission by Otto Hahn and Fritz Strassmann in 1938, and its theoretical explanation by Lise Meitner and Otto Frisch, made an atomic bomb using uranium theoretically possible. There were fears that a German atomic bomb project would develop one first. In August 1939, Leo Szilard and Eugene Wigner drafted the Einstein–Szilard letter, which warned of the potential development of "extremely powerful bombs of a new type". It urged the United States to acquire stockpiles of uranium ore and accelerate the research of Enrico Fermi and others into nuclear chain reactions. They had it signed by Albert Einstein and delivered to President Franklin D. Roosevelt.

Today's accomplishment: Plastic printed circuit boards automated!

Another production line in my minecraft world. It's small and pretty simple, consisting of a water barrel, a tangle of small machines, and a few chemical reactors.

The fruits of my labor... delicious elements!

I should've majored in chemical engineering... platinum ore processing line

Processing complete! Now to make a barrel factory, lol

Another angle of the same Minecraft world, showing the factory with several new machines visible.

Trying to figure out how many barrels to make for the outputs

A periodic table in Minecraft made of copper blocks and item frames with an item of each element in its place on the table. Only about half of the table is filled in (so far).

Leaving off here for the night 😴

A screenshot of part of a skyblock modded Minecraft base. In the courtyard of a partially-built mansion is a mess of blocky machines connected by tangles of wires and pipes. Some scaffolding is laid out to mark places where more machines are going to go in the future.

Honestly I'm not too surprised at being Gangle and Jax because I bully myself constantly 🥲

A chart showing that I'm the most similar to Gangle and Jax, followed closely by Pomni, Kinger, and Zooble, but surprisingly different from Ragatha and Caine.

I think this is the meanest I've seen Carrot get so far (I'm halfway through the fifth elephant) and I'd say it pretty damn well qualifies as bastardry.
