It's by Centurii-Chan on Twitter, and their art is very horny but not all that NSFW.

So I clicked that link and nope that feed is very NSFW, I don't really care if it's their stuff or retweets because I'm just gonna assume they're drawing stuff like they retweet anyway lol

Unless your workplace is cool with topless women lactating I guess.

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

God what a clusterfuck

It gets better. Basically no one wanted to admit it was a loving mess and the colony started to fail they were sending back messages saying everything is going great! Send more people. I think they sent 3 boats of people over one after the other and they arrived to a disease riddled, starved colony, not the thriving town they had been promised.

We spent, by some estimates, 40% of all the money in the country on this scheme.

Combo of weakest claim by other world powers and their big payback scheme was to arbitrage Atlantic and Pacific trade by doing ???? to the isthmus to develop and monopolize the quickest route from the Atlantic to the Pacific.

We're all going to experience changes in our life but only the best of us will qualify for front row seats.

If you'd see it among other portraits the artist has made, it wouldn't stand out. See the lead photo attached to this The Guardian article for just that: https://www.theguardian.com/business/article/2024/may/16/gina-rinehart-portrait-nga-vincent-namatijira-other-artists

Putting the spotlight on it was an incredibly terrible mistake... also, a hilarious mistake.

A bar in Panama and copious amounts of local brew.
Conversations start. Claims are made.
Encouragement is offered to the clueless.
Locals make side bets.
General hilarity (for the locals) ensues.

I like to watch CinemaSins and Honest Trailers for all the movies I'm curious about but don't want to watch. It's like Cliff's Notes with commentary notes to use in conversation to "prove you watched it."
So would a less deadly and far more stupid version of this scheme be those "become a duke when you buy the 1sqft piece of land in Scotland" deals you see occasionally now? Like, everyone but a small few knew it was bogus; but those small few took it way too seriously?

Well he had been a general in Simon Bolivar's army prior to his scam; so plenty of people knew him and assumed that when he said he had a land grant in Latin America, it was true.
