This shit never ends. There’s always a new reason for genocide. I’m so very tired.

These lunatics will kill us all for their rapture fantasies.

Can we start calling their theology mental illness yet? They clearly need help.

Truthfully, I honestly have compassion for everyone she’s oppressing.

Oh shit, who knew the Amish had such a presence here and post so frequently?

Thanks, subscribed.

Not even a chair frame, but likely a wire frame, probably covered in foil and then crystals. That’s a common method for art pieces. This wasn’t a chair covered in crystals, but a ‘delicate internal structure’ in a chair shape.

e: that’s probably also why it was fairly easy to fix: re-bend the wire, then replace any crystals that fell of. This idiot is lucky he didn’t get a stabilising rod up his proverbial.

The future will absolutely need cultural anthropologists and sociologists to re-form society. Just… uh… ride out the collapse and you’ll be golden. 👍

She’s a conservative drama queen. She couldn’t be upstaged like that.

Love the edit with photo. It’s nice to know we can trust something online, even if it’s only that [email protected] actually delivered the nachos.

e: missed a word

Your comment made it sound like the artist had defaced an historical object.

I’m no art critic, but I would interpret the work as a statement on a mundane, usually overlooked object becoming something dazzling and valuable (eta: as literally happened to Van Gogh, and you could go further and say he was sat on and used during life, etc; I can think of much more, but it doesn’t sound like you’ll care), but that’s just me.

The Jester is supposed to make the king giddy, not to be giddy himself. Apparently it was a bona fide career with skills – two things Elon can only pretend to understand.

How much can colouring books and crayons possibly cost?

US peace efforts are a feeble attempt at theatre. This isn’t defiance, just unbridled maliciousness. If anything, they’re using the US’s theatrical ‘opposition’ as justification, but let’s not kid ourselves. Trump is privately cheering this shit on no matter what bullshit falls from his anus-mouth in public to placate his redcaps.

The best time to wake up was yesterday. The second best time is now.

Trump must have a death grip on this guy, considering he’s such a yuge pussy.

Oh no. I hope it’s something serious.

I’m interested to know if this was the case.

Totally secondhand info, but I used to have an ex-Amish friend who told me they often have a small shared outbuilding at the edge of their community that has a phone and a computer with Internet they can use in emergencies. She said some in the community were more liberal about the word ‘emergency’ than others.

(I’m a doofus who literally typed out ‘can any Amish on Lemmy confirm this’ then deleted it, though, so take my words with some salt.)

It isn’t actually Van Gogh’s chair, that’s just the name of the piece. It’s described as having a delicate inner structure covered in crystals (probably a wire frame). It’s not a real chair, which is why it collapsed instantly – it wasn’t created to hold any weight.

After all immigrants have been forced out, all social safety nets removed, and child labour laws repealed; after the resulting widespread poverty and famine. When Americans have no choice but to work in sweatshops for a dollar a day, then US manufacturing will finally be competitive enough for trump merch to be made in the US.

Sounds like nominative determinism

My loaf is stale. Is there something I can do, or shall I bin it?
