I like the portrait orientation, gives it a feeling of expanse.
The question is because the DaVinci code fits that authors reasoning for why Blake should be Sci-Fi, in that it explores an alternative history.
It’s a rhetorical question, but that does not belie the seriousness of it.
That is such a lie.
The first entry on that list is an attack by indigenous peoples. The rest are basically all what we could consider a school shooting.
Somehow the threat of nuclear war, billions of deaths and the collapse of society, alongside a climate changing nuclear winter just isn’t that concerning when I already know climate change is going to do as much damage already.
Those who make peaceful elections impossible will make violent elections inevitable
The guy who assaults Turkish-Americans whilst in America?
I don’t think he’ll care unless he can benefit from it.
CNN: American activist shot dead by Israeli forces at West Bank protest, eyewitnesses say
Reuters: Israeli troops shoot Turkish-American woman dead at West Bank protest, officials say
BBC: US-Turkish protester killed in West Bank as Israeli forces opened fire
PBS: Israeli soldiers shoot and kill an American woman during a West Bank protest, witness says
I could keep going but I’m sure you get the point by now.
Christian Rapers?
Wow that sounds as riveting as Christian Rock was.
This coming from the same people who want to monitor everything I do or say.
Who are you going to vote for next time when they run someone more to the right than Kamala and the Republicans run someone more insane than Trump?
And how many times will you continue to do it?
People will never get listened to under the joke of representational democracy, they’ve decided to represent businesses and billionaires over you.
And in a good system there are no cops.
The police department spelled Collier’s first name as “Savahna,” whereas court records show it as “Savanah.”
Really desperate to pad out a word count there.
There’s this big cold place down south that sends massively cold air up to the bottom of Australia. Whereas the top is literally situated in the tropics.
Add to that we’re surrounded by multiple current and airstreams hitting each side of the continent. And the Mountain ranges along the east coast make the interior drier and hotter.
Oh and Ausstralia is big. If Europe can go from snow up north to beach holidays in the Mediterranean, why wouldn’t we also be as varied and more.
but when I was in Melbourne, there was a question of 'wait? is this weather ... shit?'
Ah you just gotta wait 3 minutes and it’ll change.
You’d be wanting this shitty map. Congrats now you know Victoria is temperate, what it doesn’t tell you is that we’re often wet and miserable like in England or that you’ll get snow in Tassie.
I much rather OPs map.
The Bradley.
Aus is world class for soccer?

Theme
Where is my super suit? For this challenge you are to create your own super hero.
Some photo shopping is allowed if you have trouble with the title.
As an extra rule, take your time! Some of you can be super fast (me included) and I've noticed that the early bird usually catches the worm. So for this challenge I'm subtracting a point for anyone who posts within 24 hours. It should hopefully level the playing field a little bit. Consider it an experiment, whoever wins is free to get rid of this rule if it doesn't work out.
Rules
- Follow the community’s rules above all else
- One comment and image per user
- Embed image directly in the post (no external link)
- Workflow/Prompt sharing encouraged (we’re all here for fun and learning)
- Posts that are tied will both get the points
- The challenge runs for 7 days from now on
- Down votes will not be counted
Scores
At the end of the challenge each post will be scored: | Prize | Points | |---|---| | Most upvoted | +3 points | | Second most upvoted | +2 point | | Third most upvoted | +1 point | | Hero | +1 point | | Comic Book Cover | +1 point | | Last two entries (to compensate for less time to vote) | +1 point | | Prompt and workflow included | +1 point | | Post within 24 hours | -1 point |
Hero points are awarded to the most fleshed out hero, (backstory, uniform, powers, etc.)
Comic Book Cover points are awarded to those that most look like a real comic book issue.
The winner gets to pick next theme! As always, have fun everyone!\ Previous entries

Breaking this cynical cycle requires getting honest about Biden and Harris’s roles in this blood-soaked charade.
Prof. Alon Pikarsky has no apparent connections to Israel's defense industry, lending a whiff of personal favoritism to the pick, according to local media.
