hasan makes an obvious joke and has generally good politics and the media is like we need to drown him to prove he's not a witch. meanwhile tucker carlson goes live and talks about how demons are real and one tried to eat him in his sleep once and the media is like he seems trustworthy

I have no idea what platform this is from. But it's from a tattoo artist saying AI art sucks. I'm not typing all this out, someone else can alt4me or whatever.

My tattoo artist just reposted this enthusiastically endorsing the messaging "what next should I have a computer that eats my dinner and fucks my wife?"

The Trifid Nebula (M 20) in H-alpha (green) [O III] (blue) and [S II] (red filters) using the WFC (Wide Field Camera) instrument at the 2.5m Isaac Newton Telescope (INT) in the Roque de los Muchachos Observatory (La Palma, Spain) in 2005.

This was one of the very first colour images using professional telescopes that I processed when I was doing my PhD at the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC, Spain). I used this image for illustrating my PhD Thesis and for explaining H II regions. The data were taken by Sergio Simón-Díaz as a part of a study of Galactic HII regions we were conducting at the moment.

This is a reprocessing of the data I've done in 2020, where I performed some cleaning of saturated stars, color correction, removing artefacts, hot pixels, and selective smart sharpen for revealing some extra details. However, I can't find the original FITS data of the individual channels, so this has been done over the Photoshop file I created in 2006, when I first created the colour image. 

The data is actually a mosaic including the blue reflection nebula (at its top in this image), but I have not reprocessed (yet) the other ccd as it is very tricky (plenty of artefacts and a very saturated star). I hope to eventually do it.

Xie Lian is dressed up in full godly regalia: Crown with flowers and pearls, layers of embroidered robes (open and falling off his shoulders), gossamer sashes floating around him and lit up by a glowing halo. He is "threatening" Hua Cheng by straddling him with a sword at his neck, saying: "Concede demon". 
Hua Cheng, who is only dressed in jewellery, replies: "Never!"
Xie Lian then says: "You leave me no choice then."

The art alludes to a sexy bedroom roleplay as god and calamity.

"Don't ship unless it's canon" you are truly are the weakest link. Back in my day we shipped characters that never laid eyes on each other. We shipped characters that didn't even belong in the same universe or franchise. Canon is a chain we threw off long ago

Plans for huge expansion of Meta data center advanced by Louisiana electricity regulators This new generation would come on top of three gas power plants that Entergy is already building for Meta's $27 billion data center.

I remember blocking someone here because they quoted my woodfire post and talked about how we need to stop doing little hobbies because of their carbon footprint, meanwhile Meta is getting approval from my state to build 10 gas power plants for one useless data center

An egret-like white gryphon is sitting back on their haunches. They wear a blue robe with floral patterns, a black cape and a hat. There's a bag with paper scrolls and drawing supplies attached to their belt.
