@Steel_City_FB@mlbhoopgrids To be fair that’s not the AI tells that’s just the human choice of art style. The prompt was for pixelated video game design, Tekken style character art. You might not like the juvenile or overstimulated theme
@RealShelfy@Maxwell1995Vjjo@mick727xd He could manage it, and he could steal a bunch of bases too, he’s proven that already. The dodgers just octobermaxx so everyone is kinda taking is easy and not risking themselves to injury
@RealShelfy@limefatcat@Mattatthebank His defense is what’s putting him in the conversation entirely. Still a put out can’t be compared to a pitcher earning an out.
@DG111088@HaleMark@NYPost_Mets Last year was pretty bad too and we’ve actually taken steps forward with a more stable and talented core on the hitting and pitching side. He concedes that this season didn’t go well (injuries and underperformance, Pete wouldn’t save us) but he’s right that we’re well set up
@steady_drumbeat@SamRoth97@NathanpmYoung And by granting that exemption, they force every generation to also live as displaced victims pining for something that’s not coming back and therefore caps their quality of life, instead of independent people creating a prosperous new chapter - somewhere else.
@steady_drumbeat@SamRoth97@NathanpmYoung No it’s a special legal exemption to a UN status that by definition is only for the original generation
I mean the legal term refugee, not their lived reality. Again, many others have had their nakba at some point. They find somewhere else
@steady_drumbeat@SamRoth97@NathanpmYoung Other peoples didn’t lose their status once they gained a state. It was a one generation thing, only applicable to those that were displaced.
All others stabilized, only this group is named permanent refugees, to guarantee they will never have a state and remain victims. Say no
@steady_drumbeat@SamRoth97@NathanpmYoung Why is the nakba different than any other displacement? Why are they the only people to have the special exemption where refugee status is inherited? Every other legal refugee situation is for the actual refugees themselves.
@DG111088@HaleMark@NYPost_Mets He’s right to tell panicky twitter fans to sit down. Seasons suck, but there are bright spots and he’s got half a contract left. What should he say, everything sucks and the FO is dumb and I want to get out of here? Obviously project confidence and trust and commitment.
@hormeze The theming of teshuvah and reflection was already there as a precursor to the biblical Yom teruah. A cute acrostic added later isn’t such a smoking gun
@njmarko@IterIntellectus True. Certainly, anything over such a long period would be ruinous. Only a few years ago people were worried about *over*population. As wealth increases the world over, it seems this will be the new normal.
@njmarko@IterIntellectus Which is to say, perhaps it will be exacerbated and perhaps not but extrapolating today’s rates 150 years into the future seems pretty useless either way.
@njmarko@IterIntellectus Even 50 years is different than 150 when it comes to demographic trends. One war can upend all assumptions and trendlines. Not to mention the generational advancements happening today that will utterly transform the near future.
@njmarko@IterIntellectus Holy fearmongering. Present panic is one thing, assuming any given condition will persist for 150 YEARS is insanely unhelpful.
