Even by Trump’s standards it seems quite unhinged, indeed. Sounds bat shit crazy, tbh.

No. Eyes don’t match. So the whole movie monster fails. The terror of cat’s eyes (specifically in the dark, when you can’t determine size and distance of the cat) is hard coded into our brains. An evolutionary thing as “cats” for most of the time used to be on the upper end of the food chain and your chances of reproduction massively raised if you were the first one to spot the cat - and run for your live. Just look at the typical cartoon panel symbolizing the dark and dangerous unknown, a dark place with cat’s eyes looking out. You’ll be subtily terrified - if the shape and proportions match the “cat” scheme.

I have not doubted that. It has, however., nothimg to do with the kind of cuisine you'd attract Michelin's attention with. I also know a bit of the more sophisticated American (regional and international) kitchen and it is, IMIO, much better than most people believe. (Piece of cake, because you can get next to everything there.) However, most people also have no idea what the French kitchen or to some extent the more regional parts of the Italian kitchen (or Basque, or Catalan) might be about. I honestly don't think the US really are playing in that league.

America certainly has the most diverse kitchen because it's a whole fucking continent. It has grasslands, mountains, coasts, lakes, everything and each microclimate you could imagine. I doubt, OTOH, that you've ever seen a Michelin rated restaurant from the inside.

Isomere. The best kind of trilobyte.

Let’s not be cherry picking: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperion

I think there’s some prior art (about 100y) by a poet named Hölderlin.

To be fair, the guy on the picture is 700 years or older. I want to see *you* at that age.

Maybe it is now. The one,. I saw not that long ago was a single piece.

It’s a single installation, AFAIK - and definitely an art project. Having some academic arts background, I dare to say the focus of the installation is the difference between “in the middle” and “aside”. So it’s highly symbolic. Practically two chairs with a reasonable gap inbetween would be far more practical but they, of course, don’t transmit any message.

This is real. It’s located in Giulianova Lido, Italy. IIRC an arts project from a local school and it is meant as a way to “integrate” wheelchairs symbolically as well as practically.

That’s what the Platonians want you to believe. Fools! Blind, dumb followers of the Athenian sophistry! Socrates was innocent!

Easy. It’s Atlantis. Not only Americans would fail here, also ancient Greeks because they located Atlantis somewhere in the Aegean sea where an undersea quake sunk a couple of islands. Claiming Atlantis was lost and can’t be found, of course, is cheap. It takes the illuminated mind of a trained alchemist to see the truth behind the blindwork of the temple knights and the dark forces of the Vatican.

Inferior potassium, maybe, but our potassium is best of world!!

That’s what you get for critisising AI - and righ so. I for one, welcome our new electronic overlords!

Sans serif is fine for signs, headlines, single-word content. Not so fine for text blocks, paged text, columns because it does not provide the horizontal guide that serifs provide.

There are a couple of fonts to make reading easier for various groups - visually impaired, dyslexics etc. I am not sure Calibri was designed specifically for any of them. The main problem is that there’s not the one font tht fits all.

Lord of the harvest.

Nor do I live in Sweden. Might there even be more than two countries? Questions over questions…

What’s your problem? Tho OP is perfectly right: We are going to be okay. It was not us who elected Trump, after all.

You don’t seem quite comfortable with the idea of non-Americans giving as much of a fuck about America as Americans give about anyone else.

No, but I eat raw workers while pasting.
