I hate Google's AI version of a Clippy. I've been reasearching relatively obscure stuff today and it lies constantly when the answer can't be easily found. It told me that the title of the Rosc exhibitions meant "representation of sculpture".

His blog post about his arrest is so weird. His hate is clearly genuine so why would anyone think his call for violence isn't. I don't think anyone believes his "explanation" about height differences.

In the 18th century, long before Michael Heizer, there was the Ermita de San Miguel de Arretxinaga in the Basque country. Apparently if a young man who wants to marry passes under they will find a partner within a year. It doesn't say how "young" but 42 probably wasn't considered young in 1741.

Apparently Republicans no longer want "small government". They want government involvement in companies' branding decisions. "Petty government" perhaps.

The guy in the drawing was actually a homophobe who introduced hiring policies discriminating against gay people. Is that why it is "woke" to have an actual logo for their business instead of a detailed illustration on top of a weird foetus shape?

The attacks on Iran show why most conspiracy theories are rubbish. There aren't complex sets of motivations and elaborate multi-layer hidden schemes involved. These things are as simplistic as bombing a country with 90million inhabitants to distract attention away from genocide.

It is incredible how easily Israel have distracted the media and politicians away from what they're doing to the people of Gaza as support was waining even among zealots. It couldn't be more blatant and they are just going along with it...
