Not all obesity is solely due to what you eat. Hypothyroidism can cause obesity even if you eat healthy.

Also, most of these fat looking statues are of women. It’s important to keep in mind that, back then, they were likely to give birth to 4+ kids (child mortality was high) and pregnancy can cause all sorts of changes in their bodies.
A woman looking like that statuette would certainly be rare, but you could expect to find something “close enough” from a number of women aged over 50 that had many children before menopause.

Age of Empires 2, despite being Microsoft owned, is easily one of the best strategy games of all time and has very clearly stood the test of time. It’s over 25 years old and people kept playing it a lot even before the HD remakes. I remember reading that the folks that made the 1st game often had to choose between “actual history or hollywood history” for some details, often going for hollywood because it made for a more fun experience.

I suspect Factorio might stand the test of time as well, and it’s clearly something made by someone who really understands the medium. I haven’t begun my factory yet.

Deliciously ever-hot orange pie

And if you’re a cop, you’re gonna work after death

Now that’s The Joker

Planes, like the ones that do commercial passenger and cargo flights, are much harder to go fully electric compared to ships. Ships, unlike planes, don’t need to maintain a minimum speed and are less constrained by battery weight. Recharging their batteries would take a long time, depending on their size.

Also, you can make nuclear powered ships, though the operating costs are very high and thus unsuitable for most civilian needs.

Probably not. They did give the peace prize to Obama, who was OK-ing the bombing of Lybia at the time

“I wish for all wishes made after this one to fail spectacularly”

After we hear about Carthage, sure thing

D is the logical guess, but I don’t understand how it could be E, as that’d be 2 moves of the orange circle and 1 “backward” move of the blue square
…
Ah, it’s “the same” as D, but turned 90º to the right

ACKSHUALLY “last man standing” was a game mode in Unreal Tournament 1999, so the concept was there for a long time

Maybe the dude said 9 centimeters and she thought it’s inches, or vice versa. Or maybe she really has a train garage for a pussy

It’s all fun and games until he bangs the wife of someone who graduated top class of Navy Seals and has been involved in numerous secret raids against Al-Qaeda, with over 300 confirmed kills, is trained in gorilla warfare and is the best sniper of the army

edit: I see the downvoters don’t know about this classic 🤣

English is THE easy mode language of the world

hahahaha, no, it is not. A significant amount of words are ambiguous if isolated from their context (take “fire”: as in fire a shot, a flame, fire a worker, “this is fire”?), pronunciation is all over the place, it feels like there are more exceptions than rules when it comes to past-present-future verbs

Then the person sends you a 2 minute long audio over whatsapp

Why not control the cockroaches with puppet leaders?

É gente assim que me faz sentir orgulho do país 💚💛

Interesting, so Google was all bullshit even back in 2007, “don’t be evil” and “radical transparency” being façades that fooled everyone outside. I was finishing high school at the time and fully believed they were good guys, even if I didn’t like their Chrome browser.

Master let us eat right there with him, inside the big house.

100% Casa Grande e Senzala feels.

As for the business-casual laugh at slashing the “cost” of the Brazilian workforce, well, that just feels like the same old song the country has seen since it became a colony for USA commercial interests back in the early 1900s. I also thought one-dimensional villains didn’t exist and were stupidly unrealistic, until Bolsonaro was elected.

One thing that might interest you is reading The Dawn of Everything, if you haven’t already. One of the first chapters explains how the native americans of the Great Lakes region had excellent arguments against the “civilized” society of the europeans, and it was their arguments that started the enlightenment in yurop.

Cuz she looks like a cat

One that is way too short
