This makes me want to become a user of DuckDuckGo.

After installing Far Cry 3 (14 year old game btw) it

1. Asked me for my Ubisoft Login

2. Rejected the password I set and have used for years up to this point

3. Is now mad that I already linked a different (the same) Ubisoft account (that it conveniently didn't care about before) to my Steam account

4. Doesn't let me sign out (which is what it want's me to do) to fix the issue

My husband just pulled this rosary out of the drain. Along with this we have found a couple bottles of holy water in random places around the house. We rented this place a few months back, don’t know much about last renters

Anyone religious or spiritual know if this has any meaning other than just protection? Was a bizarre pull when we were just expecting hair to be what was clogging our drain

His name is Nala.

Yes, his name is Nala even though he's a male, hahah! The reason behind this is I was never sure of his gender when he's a baby and even in my family had a hard time figuring out his gender, idk maybe we are still cluess about those things first especially that he is our first time adopting a cat and our first time having a cat in general (how ignorant of us, right? 🤦🏻‍♀️ㅋㅋ) I was so excited and fell in love at first sight when I met him to the point that I never cared about his gender. I was only convinced he's a male when he started growing (signs started showing hahah). I was planning to change his name to Gizmo, but I didn't get to actually change his name because he already got used to me and my family calling him "Nala~." He 100% loves it.

Just like what's in the title, my baby left us exactly 3 years ago, July 18, 2023.

I was devastated. I was heartbroken. I cried almost every day when I lost him. Even while I am writing this, remembering him, my tears can't stop falling.

I love him so much. He's always with me wherever I go; when I watch series, when I am playing games, when I was having my meals, whenever I unbox my packages, he always plays with it. He sleeps with me, I bathed him myself, and I take care of his meals. He never left my side.

Such a sweet clingy baby. I never get tired of him even though sometimes he gets all moody hahah

I am always an animal lover, and I was actually more of a dog lover. Me and my family always used to adopt dogs than cats before. But when I met Nala, that's when I started loving more of cats. He changed me for the better, I must say.

Since I lost him, I have never dared to adopt another cat since then.

Maybe I will in the future, but I am still not ready yet, even though it's been years.

I am sure my Nala is in a better place now.

My Nala, my toothless.

I think several theater companies in my area are using AI to make their posters. I feel like I am seeing this specific style of poster everywhere, with the same little decals for the calendar, ticket, and heart. In this poster specifically, the text feels repetitive and the flowers on the left seem generated, not drawn. Some of the bud and petal placement doesn’t make sense.

I want to post in my local theater community calling out posters like this but I want to be sure they are AI before I do. Is this AI? And does anyone know what people are using to generate this? I feel I have a responsibility to my community of artists to start a discussion about why this is detrimental to our field.

I have cropped out the company name and website.

Found this behind one side of a door frame that was being removed for replacement. It appears that this ball lodged itself into the wood at a pretty high rate of speed. My initial thought was that it is some sort of non-lethal or crowd control ammunition but it had to be absolutely moving to lodge itself into solid wood like that. Doesn’t seem very “non-lethal”.

The ball is a pretty hard, light plastic. It doesn’t feel squishy at all like rubber bullets I’ve seen.
