The video begins with an interview conducted outdoors, featuring a man wearing a light blue shirt over a dark blue t-shirt. He is being interviewed by someone holding a microphone with the 'WDR' logo. The background shows a building with a concrete pillar and some hanging decorations. The text 'TikTok [@]moderator_sozialdemokrat' is visible in the bottom left corner. The man discusses a topic related to a 17-year-old son, with text overlays such as 'wenn', 'achtzehnjähriger', 'Sohn', 'und', 'müsste', 'schicken', 'würd', 'dem', 'Erlass', 'verlassen', 'Warum?', 'ja', 'schick', 'Mein', 'den', 'rein', 'ich', 'mich', 'nicht', 'dabei', 'ein', 'Konflikt', 'auszutragen', 'ich', and 'angefangen'. The scene transitions to a young man, shirtless, being interviewed in a sunny outdoor setting with trees and people in the background. The 'WDR' microphone is held close to him, and the text 'TikTok [@]moderator_sozialdemokrat' remains visible. The young man continues the discussion, with text overlays such as 'angefangen', 'WDR', and 'ich'. The video concludes with a black screen displaying the TikTok handle '[@]moderator_sozialdemokrat'.

Void if seal. Warranty is broken?
What the heck do they have against seals that they void the whole thing? And why can't they offer a real warranty?

The Art of a Hopeful, Solarpunk Future - The Story Seed Library
The Quiet Part, August 28, 2025
"In this video I wanted to share a really cool resource for publicly available #SolarpunkArt, called the the #StorySeed ibrary at storyseedlibrary.org I think most people could really benefit from taking a moment to question what a better world, or better future might look like. The art and artists in this video have done an incredible job inspiring me to imagine that better future, and I hope by sharing their works I might be able to do the same for you. All of the art featured in this video has been made by hand by people, none of it is AI, just straight up human artistry."

The video features a charming interaction between a light orange and white cat and a light brown dog, set in a cozy indoor environment. The cat, standing on its hind legs, engages playfully with the dog, who is lying down and facing the cat. The cat's front paws are raised, and it appears to be gently pawing at the dog's face, while the dog responds with a calm demeanor, occasionally nuzzling the cat's paw. The background includes a window with a view of greenery and buildings, a pink stuffed toy, and a white cushion, adding to the warm and inviting atmosphere.
Throughout the video, the text '达咩' (Damao) appears in red at the top of the frames, likely serving as a playful or affectionate name for the cat. The interaction is gentle and affectionate, with the cat and dog maintaining a close and friendly relationship. The video concludes with the cat and dog still engaged in their playful interaction, highlighting their bond and the serene, domestic setting.

in reply to Luigi. 🇵🇸 🇻🇪 🏴 • • •The image shows a person seated in the back seat of a black car with tinted windows. The individual is wearing a dark-colored suit and is raising their right hand to their face, possibly wiping or touching their nose. The car's interior is visible, with a dark-colored seat and a window frame with a silver trim. The person's face is partially obscured by the window, and the background outside the car is not clearly visible. The overall scene suggests a private moment captured during a journey.

The image features a large military boot stepping on a red baseball cap with the letters "MAGA" prominently displayed in white. The background is a stylized American flag with red and white stripes and a blue field with white stars. The boot is positioned centrally, with the cap directly beneath it, suggesting a forceful action. The text "Stomp out Fascism!" is written in bold, yellow letters at the top of the image, conveying a strong message. The overall composition uses a combination of colors and symbols to create a powerful visual statement.

The image features a person wearing a dark blue suit and a red tie, standing in front of a microphone. The background is blurred, suggesting a public speaking event. The person is smiling slightly, with their eyes closed. Overlaid on the image is bold white text with a black outline, reading: "AMERICA IS FULL OF BRILLIANT AND CAPABLE PEOPLE AND THIS DUMB FUCK IS OUR PRESIDENT." The text is positioned at the top and bottom of the image, with the bottom text slightly larger. The watermark "imgflip.com" is visible in the bottom left corner.

The image is a political cartoon featuring two characters. On the left, a man labeled "PRESS" is wearing a top hat with "PRESS" written on it, glasses, and a suit. He is holding a cigar and pointing at a large pig-like figure on the right. The pig is wearing a suit and a yellow tie, with a straw hat on its head. The pig is standing in a muddy puddle with its feet sinking into the mud, and its tail is dripping. The pig has a speech bubble saying, "BUT... YOU ARE A PIG." The background is simple, with a sandy ground and a dark, indistinct area behind the pig. The cartoon is signed "PARTY" and "THE SALT LAKE TRIBUNE" in the bottom left corner.
