The image depicts a robotic figure with a detailed mechanical head and upper body. The head is predominantly purple with visible mechanical components, including gears and tubes, and features a mask-like structure with a circular eye and a mouthpiece. The robot's face has a human-like appearance, with visible wrinkles and a sense of age. The body is clad in a red garment with purple accents, and the figure stands against a blue, stone-like background with architectural details. The overall style is reminiscent of steampunk aesthetics, with a blend of organic and mechanical elements.

The image is a black and white photograph of four young men standing in front of a brick building. They are dressed in formal attire, including suits and overcoats, with ties and boots. The men are arranged in a line, with two on the left and two on the right, and they are all looking directly at the camera. The background shows a building with multiple windows, and the ground appears to be gravel. The image has a caption at the top that reads, "Picture of the Beatles before they got really big."

@altbot I will also add, it's the 4 Beatles with really short legs.

The altbot doesn't always get it just right.

Legitimately read this as ‘cursed parsley’ at first.

Also, the Rio Grace Ace Hardware in Taos is freakin’ huge! It just keeps going! #NewMexico

The image shows a display of potted plants at a nursery. In the foreground, there is a pack of "Curled Parsley" plants from Bonnie Plants, priced at $12.98 per pot. The label on the pack is pink with green and black text, and it includes a picture of the parsley plant and a bowl of salad. The label also mentions that the plant is highly decorative, suitable for both garden and garnishing, and has a fresh taste for salads and seasoning. It is labeled as "Non-GMO" and "Part Shade." The pack contains three pots, and the plants appear to be healthy with vibrant green leaves. In the background, there are other potted plants, some of which are visible on a metal shelf. The setting appears to be a greenhouse or nursery, with a green wall and soil visible on the ground.

Generally, there are two teams with varying numbers of members on each team and a clearly defined playing area.

I opened Mastodon and got error "Something went wrong". I was confused why I suddenly got issues with my server. I checked the server and realized the disk was full. I had not run the "clean up command" so I had 101 GB worth of temp files. Lessons learned.

How Specialization Enables Systemic Evil

The British government is facing growing political pressure to clarify its stance on the recent US airstrikes against Iranian nuclear facilities, as Foreign Secretary David Lammy repeatedly refused to confirm whether the UK supported the action or considered it legal.

The UK Foreign Office also denied Iranian reports that Lammy had expressed regret over the US strikes in a call with Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi.

Is it appropriate to pose with Reform HQ officials?
