The really gross thing is when you consider how many ICE agents are probably actual clients of immigrant sex workers. Because knowing that kind of people who sign up for ICE, I wouldn't be surprised at all if they loved exploiting immigrant women in multiple ways.

You know the answer, right?

The people in Katrina were mostly black people.

I know Kanye is a crazed fucking idiot now, but he talked real talk for one moment in his life when he said "George Bush doesn't care about black people."

Both Gravity Falls and the Amazing World of Gumball have absolutely top tier writing. 100% both Dipper and Gumball are "off-model" in OPs image. For this seemingly being a "we're so sick of the CalArts style" example people must not know that the creator of Gumball, Ben Bocquelet, is fucking French and the show is produced in Europe.

I'm in my forties and Gumball is legitimately one of the funniest cartoons I have seen in two decades.

Also, Gumball stands out on it's own because the norm for cartoons for a long time has seemed to have been the Gravity Falls/Adventure Time/Steven Universe formula of comedy mixed with a bunch of serious undertones and long-form story. There is no long-form story with Gumball, with the voice actors literally resetting multiple times and making jokes about switching voices no less. There hasn't really been an extremely funny cartoon of that variety (that I have seen personally) since the Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack, and Gumball positively outshines Flapjack.

Finally, it also ignores how Gumball absolutely pulls faces like this. Here's a couple screenshots I just pulled from episodes I remember.

EDIT: In other news a new season of Gumball after a seven year haitus is dropping later this month.

Where in ~~time~~ the multiverse you say?

She's also a Republican in all the worst kind of ways. Looking at her Wikipedia page just... Yikes.

Listen. Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.

I think what people keep overlooking about "optics" is that a mass number of people will never see this news because they only digest news through algorithmically controlled content providers that give them more of what they already believe.

The number of people going directly to traditional media outlets keeps shrinking in favor of YouTube shorts, Tiktok, Facebook, Snapchat, and Instagram

File this under "No Shit, Sherlock!"


Although it is nice to have evidence to support the obvious.

The cost of making spambot AI reveal themselves in all caps rhyming poetry?

Priceless.

For everything else there's Mastercard.


It feels odd/uncomfortable that we have AI governance working at credit card companies, but I guess you could do worse than someone who actually understands how to bait them.
