Another genius idea from the incel brain squad.
In the wake of the Republicans’ anemic performance in the midterms — the “red wave” that wasn’t — white nationalist Nick Fuentes, leader of the far-right America First movement, is declaring that he’s done with democracy.

So I’ve been using DALL-E, the AI art software, to create pictures of mammoths to use as graphics. The only problem is that DALL-E can’t always remember what a mammoth is supposed to look like and has terrible problems with both trunks and tusks, rendering most of the art it produces unusable.
A new theory from the incels:
Luis Ramirez has a new theory about school shootings: they’re caused by a lack of testosterone.

Bounding into Comics, one of the more boneheaded of the culture war blogs, which routinely blasts what it sees as excessive “wokeness” in comic books and films, has turned its attention to the latest comic book version of Star Trek, demonstrating in the process that it has completely missed the point of the whole franchise.
