@Bingo_Mingo23 @Mikururun Can't beleive I'm returning to X but no it's not. It is true that Manet references Titian, but the context of both pieces are different. The dog replaced by KFP e.g. is already a corruption of this idea since iirc dogs were supposed to represent loyalty - not there in Manet

Tomorrow let us not forget hope and joy and we couple them with tears and rage

I resent how much energy I have to burn worrying about another country’s politics. I resent how much power one country has to sway the fate of the rest of the world. I resent how vulnerable this leaves those of us in the Global South in particular.

@kosekibijou The ending of Cyberpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty. It 100% gives the spy-thriller movie vibe.

Korobeiniki (Tetris) is a classic - which makes it hard to beat.

@jonathancoulton s pieces for the Portal series is pretty nice too. Especially its Poker Night at the Inventory jazz remix

@RathsRalf Kann nur die erste zwei entziffern - der erste (Zelt) ist das Zeichen für Mensch, die zweite sieht ganz ähnlich wie das Zeichen von Liebe aus (hier spielt alte/neue Schreibweise ne Rolle).
