This was the hardest one to find out of the three I bought. I had to go onto like the tenth search page to find a website that was run by a singular Japanese dude who seems to have every out of print figure ever. I even searched the website name to make sure it was legit, it was way too convenient.

The Figure-rise Standard Umamusume: Pretty Derby Tokai Teio model kit represents a character from the popular multimedia franchise "Umamusume: Pretty Derby," which features anthropomorphized versions of real-life racehorses portrayed as "horse girls.
@poopernova @Ronnie21093 I almost gave up and ordered the small pop up parade Mcqueen with the normal school uniform. Luckily I decided to keep searching.
An investigation by The Guardian revealed that the Israeli military used a powerful 500-pound bomb, likely an MK-82, in its attack on Al-Baqa cafรฉ by the #Gaza seaside.
This bomb, caused a massive explosion and scattered shrapnel over a wide area, leaving a large crater at the site. The use of such a weapon may amount to a war crime.
Of course it is a war crime. the whole thing is a string of war crimes. they have no shame. they kill for eradication and pleasure. They are a sick nation. Only the murderers, thieves and religious extremists will stay behind when this is over. Any decent Israeli or Jew will leave the country asap. Many are leaving by boat as I speak. Jews are decent people but for the zionists. Wake up!
Every single European country with exception of Spain and Norway, standing firm behind this out if control lunacy driven fascist society we call Israel today.
Evil can not prevail if decent people stay silent.
Majority of the world is chosing to ignore these atrocities.
For some very very strange reason. Maybe racism is much much deeper in the mindset of the world than I ever imagined.
"Christianity is at the root of the evil that has corrupted the West. This is the truth, and it does not admit uncertainty. In its frenetic subversion of every hierarchy, in its exaltation of the weak, the disinherited, those without lineage and without tradition; in its call to "love", to "believe", and to yield; in its rancor toward everything that is force, self-sufficiency, knowledge, and aristocracy; in its intolerant and proselytizing fanaticism, Christianity poisoned the greatness of the Roman Empire. Enemy of itself and of the world, this dark and barbarous wave remains the principal cause of the West's decline." - Julius Evola
@relentless_eduardo@freeatlantis.co The Church had yet to corrupt the inner metaphysical values of the European at that time (the Rosicrucians, Knight's Templar, etc had more Pagan elements internally than Christian).
the greatest period of Spanish expansion to spread Christianity was about 1500 - 1800
so could we say the entire conquest of latin america by spain and the almost entire conquest of north america by the northern europeans were both symptoms of decline?

Casual thoughts about memory and our misconceptions about it, based on the last few weeks of seeing a LOT of lay mental models about memory and cognition:
- it is well known in the psychological and cognitive sciences that memory is not like a man-made recording device. Your memory is not a tape recorder, or analogous to computer memory. Nevertheless people will insist on constantly using computer metaphors for memory. Just know this is widely regarded as inaccurate
hey thanks so much I've been using computer/organic machine/input/output analogies for 30+ years while also understanding the limitations of such purposeful analogies, and this is the first time I've seen a fellow scientist scold the subject. Congrats, really! We are so, so, so much more than organic computers, yes. Obviously.
- a key principle of much of the memory that we're concerned with in casual conversations (how we learn, retrieve information for large and complex tasks, "meaning" memory) is that we store information in relationship with the previous information and organization of our memories. Over and over, research has found that we are much more "active" participants in this process rather than "passive recorders"
With this knowledge in hand, we start to understand illusions of learning, e.g.:
"Conscientiously taking verbatim notes or reading to-be-learned content over, if it is done in a passive way, is not an efficient way to learn"
- Bjork, R. A., Dunlosky, J., & Kornell, N. (2013). Self-regulated learning: Beliefs, techniques, and illusions. Annual review of psychology, 64(1), 417-444.
From what I understand, human memory is pretty shit. It gets processed through our imagination and we only remember the story we told ourselves, not the actual facts.
I would absolutely love to watch a seminar on "how to study" and "how to learn" that's pitched to students starting high school, and again when staring university. "What we know works" would be just such an incredible asset for students, teachers, parents, everyone.

My favorite quick example of this is this simple game:
"Hey computer, here's twenty random things. Memorize them." "Okay." "Recite them forwards." "Okay." "Recite them backwards." (flips the sign of one counter increment) "Okay."
"... hey human, here's twenty random things. Memorize them." "Okay." "Recite them forwards." "Okay." "Recite them backwards." head explodes
People can train themselves to be better at this, but most people don't have sequence-flipping of unpatterned data come naturally to them, and with computers it's almost exactly as easy as forward readout.
And of course the computational theory of mind has achieved a pretty dominant position in philosophy of mind. Since the Enlightenment and the ascendence of scientism we homo sapiens have had a weakness for interpreting things through the framework of our shiniest, most advanced technology. A few hundred years ago the universe was thought of as a great clockwork. Today we understand things as computers. We keep making the same mistakes, don't we?
I really found the historical perspective on this (i.e. technology serves as the metaphor for intelligence) fascinating: aeon.co/essays/your-brain-doesโฆ
In Our Own Image (2015) by George Zarkadakis is a great read as well.
"the Mandela effect" should be an opportunity to explore how fallible human memory is, and how it can interact with group dynamics, leading to things like widespread memories of events that never happened. Instead it's a basis for people who are certain their memories are 100% digitally accurate to unmoor themselves from reality and start rambling about parallel universes while fashioning tinfoil hats for themselves.

My initial reaction: "These people honestly think someone committed suicide just because they put a picture from a bridge? That's so stupid" Went to Twitter to check on the profile for myself.... literally every single one of their last few posts reads as: "the last things I want to say before I off myself". Huh... Maybe I was too rash to criticize. I guess people did do their homework before celebrating the death of a person they don't know.
@alyx This isn't the first time someone has posted a picture from a bridge with an ominous message, plus they've likely physically mutilated themselves which further fucks with their mental state. Poor bastards
Why people are killing themselves for something they cannot change or influence is beyond me
Perhaps the book im reading on Stoicsm is finally bearing its fruits because i see no logical reason to end yourself because of something that you cannot influence or change.
Just accept your situation and move on โโYou choose to be influenced by your fate and situation, you cannot alter fate so stop resisting it right?
Perhaps rational thinking is not on the menu for some of these people ๐ค
@xaetacore Well these are not exactly rational people, and a lot of their issues are likely self-inflicted given they've decided to be troons and have likely mutilitated themselves permanently, I don't blame theme for wanting to end it all considering there's no future for them other than as sterile slaves to medication

๐ Narcissism can deeply affect creative collaborations. During brainstorming, a narcissistic individual might dominate the conversation, seeking to overshadow others' ideas rather than build collectively. This can stifle innovation as the space for genuine exchange shrinks. Monopolizing ideas often leads to resentment, reducing trust and teamwork. Awareness of these dynamics helps us foster healthier, more balanced creative environments where every voice matters. ๐ก๐ค #Narcissism #CreativeCollaboration #MentalHealthMatters

I've noticed that many former astronauts are exceedingly long-lived. John Glenn was 95yo when he died. Michael Collins was 90yo when he died. Buzz Aldrin is very much still with us at 95yo, as is Jim Lovell (pictured) at 97yo.
I wonder if anyone has researched the reasons for their longevity.
@yngmar @Infoseepage Yes, I'm sure these are very important factors. Although, there are other groups of people who might benefit from the same advantages without reaching the same venerable ages. Olympic athletes, for example.
