@SCUM !historychads decided to just go ahead and make a post.
Despite Japan being closed to outsiders during the Edo period between 1603 to 1868, they still had some idea of the outside world. One interesting case was what they knew about the fledgling country of America. The following is a collection of different pages from a book about America's history called Osanaetoki Bankokubanashi written in 1861. After doing some digging it seems like this book was in earnest, it believed what it had written, taking its sources from two other books about America.
Here is George Washington (with bow and arrow) pictured alongside the Goddess of America.
Here is Christopher Columbus (seated at center) reporting his discovery of America to Queen Isabella of Spain.
Now it's the American Revolution. Here is George Washington defending his wife "Carol" from a British official named "Asura" (same characters as the Buddhist deity).
And here is Washington's "second-in-command" John Adams battling an enormous snake.
Here is Washington and his wife "Carol" meeting an extremely youthful Benjamin Franklin, who has an impressive squat.
Here's the incredibly jacked Benjamin Franklin firing a cannon that he holds in his bare hands, while John Adams directs him where to fire.
And here is George Washington straight-up punching a tiger.
Best buds John Adams and Ben Franklin must have had a falling out, because John Adams fires an arrow at Ben and then rides away like a cowardly little b-word. Of course Ben Franklin is a total badass, so he just stands there and lets the arrow fly by without even flinching.
During a calmer moment, John Adams is just chillin' in the countryside, having a quiet picnic with his elderly mother...
But then! While John Adams is too obsessed with the food and drink, a huge snake comes along and eats his mom!
Maybe the snake was a child of that other snake John Adams killed, or maybe it was sent by Ben Franklin as part of their feud?
Here is Washington leading his army from behind in a carriage. The American flag has no stars, only stripes, and the author seems very impressed that the carriage has not one but TWO horses.
Meanwhile, John Adams wants to get revenge on the snake that ate his Mom , so he goes to ask a magical mountain fairy for help!
The mountain fairy does Adams a solid, and summons a gigantic eagle!
Together, John Adams and the eagle kill the enormous snake that ate his Mom. The power of teamwork!!!
So that's it, really interesting blend between a modern idea like the US and more mythical storytelling. Reads a lot like tales of Alexander the Great or of bible characters like David. Cool illustrations too. There are more pages, but I can't find any translation, despite them looking very interesting. Here's the whole book: https://archive.wul.waseda.ac.jp/kosho/bunko11/bunko11_a0380/bunko11_a0380_0002/bunko11_a0380_0002.html

Kingdom Come: Deliverance II's Pan Ptacek has hit up transvestite streamer Gilticus.
(According to the streamer)
The actor who played Pan in the game came across Zhenya's cosplay and wrote in a private message expressing his gratitude forย herย playing the game. A little later, he wrote more, "I don't remember ever seeing such a beautiful woman before." When people started writing to him saying that "such a beautiful woman" wasn't a woman at all, he replied that he didn't care about that and wasn't going to retract what he said

Alright, I wasn't going to say anything. I was just going to keep my head down, and pretend everything was fine like I always do. But I can't. I won't. The way I get treated on this forum compared to other users is disgusting.
I see the way you all respond to the "cool" posters. The power users. The verifiedhots... The gym bros, the egirls. You shower them with upmarseys, hang on their every word, treat them like royalty. Meanwhile, I get mocked, ignored, and ridiculed. Every. Single. Day. If I'm lucky, it's even worse to be ignored.
What was my crime? Because I work a job to support myself that isn't considered glamorous? Because I have had social struggles in my life? The double standards are insane. I will get different results than someone else from doing the same exact thing simply because they are more popular than me? I'm just to accept my place in the world? That other people will get to win while I just watch from the sidelines?
I am just to get treated like I'm r-slurred by people who are literally 5 times dumber than me?
I'm not taking shit from any of you anymore. Consider it personal now. gfy @Rad_juju i gave you a warning that you refused to heed.
I actually used to think that was my place. I had accepted my role in this society and grown comfortable in it. I'm not wasting anymore time. Because the truth is this isn't close to my place. I'm not done yet. Not even close. In the next few months I can promise that you will cease to recognize me. Not a trace of my former self will remain.
I will take my god given elite genetics and indomitable will to reforge myself as something new. I don't care if the odds are against me. This feeling I have now. It tells me that I can do literally whatever I want. Why can't I? Like actually what is just stopping from doing whatever I want?
That is why I have made some changes.
1. I have put in my 2 weeks at McDonalds.
It is holding me back, spending so much time there. It is stagnating me. I must go where I can grow. Which is why I will be moving across the country to pursue my passion of becoming a writer. I have enough savings to support myself for about 6 months due to a recent inheritance I have received, as well as some government payments I have recently managed to secure. Six months should be more than enough time for me to secure a role and start supporting myself using my writing.
2. I have decided that I will be getting a six pack. This will take me 6 weeks at the most now that I know the path forward.
3. I am going to get into a real life fight. Preferably with someone from rDrama. I do not have much experience with martial arts, but I don't feel fear or pain anymore. Serious opponents please enter my DMs.
4. I am going to use my author money to fly egirls out to me, or fly out to the egirls. Now that I am about to start a job that will allow me to work from anywhere in the country I can afford to travel more. I have noticed a trend in the past that when an egirl and I did not work out it was usually due to the distance between us. Not the lack of feelings.
This is what will be considered my "winter arc" to say.
As for those who doubted me? The janitors of the website, those of you who bullied me because you were so happy that you finally found someone "worse" than you that you just couldn't resist. (only slightly less pathetic than the jannies.
Did you feel powerful? Picking one me when I wasn't even fighting back.
Do you think I'll forget about you once I've built a body your faulty genetics couldn't provide if you were trained from birth? Do you think I'll forget about you once I've fricked more egirls in one week than you have in your entire lives? Do you think I'll be even the slightest bit humble?
No I won't. I'm coming for blood. And when I come for my enemies they shall know that it was their own actions that brought this divine justice down upon their heads. Their inability to simply treat me as human, to take me seriously? No I won't let it slide. I won't let it slide for anyone else either. Nobody is going to experience what I did on rDrama ever again, and that's a fact. I will show you what true power is.
So where does this all lead? What am I going to do with all of this power?
Well. First I will be using it to form a harem of egirls. I will use the clout I am gaining from my fairly successful instagram account to farm them. I know now that love is not about patience or waiting for the right time to strike like my calculating mind is more inclined towards, but it is pure relentless aggression. I was shooting myself in the foot by trying to make friends with women and wait for mutual attraction to form. I shall no longer be doing this. I will literally fly to wherever the egirls are.
Next, I will use the fame and clout I secure from poaching all these egirls to draw an audience. An audience of my puppets who will willfully prop my work up, spreading it far and wide to the ignorant masses who are stuck in the cold away from the warm embrace of my knowledge. It will be a work so grand that none can will be able to deny that I am the best. Will probably be able to lean into fitness influencing once my transformation is complete.
So go on and laugh if you want. It will probably take time for you all to realize I'm not joking. That these changes I'm going through are real. That my will is stronger than all of yours combined. I'm not going to justify myself, all I can say is get ready to eat your words in a few months once my transformation is complete. None of you will ever forget me. When this is all through it will be undeniable that I alone am truly the one without compare.
Please stay tuned for my substack announcement. And follow me on instagram which I have linked on my profile I have already managed to acquire sponsors, I just need to get them to pay me. I'll probably be taking a break from rdrama for a bit to chill out. Don't try and find me if you know what's good for you. I would just like to be alone.
Sincerely,
Someone who has been pushed a Bridge too far.

Celina 52 Diner is a fake business/troll page that posts all sorts of AI-generated images with the hope of baiting normies. They are very good at it and sometimes catch a whopper in the form of a as they have done with Michael.
How it started:
The aftermath:
Comments from the original post with the raw chicken:
1. "I'm deleting negative comments, this is getting rediculous"
2. People in on the fun
Comments from the Michael Hayes post:
1. "someone sent us his workplace, we contacted them"
Somehow still catching
2. "your chicken is clearly RAW!"

Nathan from data-driven Election Truth Alliance (ETA), who has a background in cybersecurity, provides an overview of the research and analysis ETA has conducted on the questionable 2024 elections. At 13:09 he is asked what percentage of people does ETA believe actually voted for Harris. Nathan responds that based on their analysis, Harris would have won at least 5 swing states and would have had about 70% of the popular vote (had the election results not been tampered with).
Give ETA some love and support:

Whenvever I log on the chat seems to be filled with indoctrinated teen Americans/bots regurgitating far-right propaganda from social media; why is this not moderated?
A lot of what is said would be classed as incitement to racial hatred which is a criminal act so I find it strange this is allowed on a public chat. This isn't Twitter and I find it a bit disgusting the developers don't prevent their game being used as an indoctrination tool for the far-right.
Mechabellum is a moderately entertaining auto battler created by a small Chinese developer. There is a "global chat" that anyone can talk in and it's a completely unmoderated free for all, so as you'd expect it's basically an Xbox Live lobby from 2006. Almost everyone just ignores it. This causes occasionally sneed on the subreddit.
