Fih

I know someone who would do this in fucking college

Crazy how no one could have known this before today /s

My cat seems to like anime for some reason

I gripe because it had the potential to be very very good and I was excited until I actually saw some of it

As a bronze age fan I am very angry about the armor designs among other details and it ruined any enthusiasm I had. Nolan had an opportunity to do something really unique with a really high budget and he didn’t.

Edit: This is what standard Mycenaean armor fucking looks like

There is variation in armor design, especially for the wealthier Mycenaeans but fucking none of them look like Nolan’s armor. IT’S NOT EVEN FUCKING BRONZE! There’s so much creativity and personal touch to some of the Bronze age armor, they are so fucking fascinating and none of that is seen in this movie. I will die angry

They are most likely joking about the Ebola outbreak and recent spike in armed conflict

Mali, I want to see the land of Songhai and visit Timbuktu.

Project zomboid, once build 42 finally comes out that is. Shouldn’t be more than a few more months right? Haha

Wh40k is know for its copious minis

The only thing I am reading rn is Capital but I don’t think you came here for political theory so I will recommend The Hot Zone. It’s the last book I read and it’s about the discovery of Ebola, its investigations, and how it got to the US.

There are plenty of fish that eat meat

Yes and no, it does kill people so fast that it would run into spreading roadblocks here and there but its main issue is that it is not airborne. Should it be, the rate it kills people would be unlikely to matter unless we took very serious precautions that some countries have proven to be unwilling to do. It also has a decently long incubation period that could shed disease while not obviously infected.

If Ebola Zaire were airborne (while being as infectious as it is through other methods which is admittedly a stretch but not a huge one) and it got into a major American city and we did not quarantine in time it’d be fucking over. Like we would be unbelievably fucked. The casualties world wide would be astronomical. Covid would be a joke in comparison.

Ebola has the potential to be a big fucking deal but thankfully it is not.

I am actually more scared of Ebola Sudan for the kill rate reason. If it became airborne I think things could be worse. However, Ebola Reston is more closely related to Ebola Zaire so we don’t need to worry about that just yet.

This Ebola outbreak convinced me to read the hot zone. As awful and scary as Ebola is I want everyone reading this to know that it is not a global threat at the moment. This is not a disease that spreads easily.

It would take a very specific species (Ebola Reston) jumping from primate to human for it to become airborne. So long as your country has a well funded medical system that can afford proper cleanliness, you are okay.

The current outbreak is awful and tragic and honestly preventable but it is very unlikely to be a major global threat, as much as news media might present it that way sometimes.

It would have been so easy to just not write that part. Or her character like that at all tbh

There might be an app that has that functionality but lemmy itself doesn’t iirc

Ferrofluid for sure

I gotta start posting harder

I am quite certain that the crimes of this guilty land will never be purged away but with blood. I had, as I know think vainly, flattered myself that without very much bloodshed it might be done.
