Ai is getting so much better, but I can still tell this is AI but now I’m not sure why. Something’s off and I can’t quite put my finger on it.
The lighting is off for one. It seems to come from different directions when you look at different areas of the picture.
- Something’s up with the texture on Chad EU’s face. His vest is also weird, can’t see where it splits at the very top, and it has a weird silver stripe in only one small area.
- The old lady’s eye on the right is weird, almost like it’s missing and there’s just an empty spot there, but it’s not quite like that either.
- There’s a lady in the back holding a kid in the back, she has him in a choke?
- Same lady, her nose is weird, like the perspective got fucked up there.
And wear a suit
Ewww AI Generated
No, this is real, my parents sent it to me via Facebook.
The lady in the front is my father!
Do you know how much it would cost to pay extras to pose for a photo like this? Shitposters need to be saving money in this economy
How long until the chicken plague infects europe though?
Rising prices are just a symptom of an unsustainable murder pyramid that’s literally destroying the planet.
We do have H5N1 here, just like everyone else it’s out there with wild birds and those fly all over the place, it’s been a thing for two decades. Difference being we have regulations and also industrial structure (not as large companies/flocks) which means even if a flock gets infected it’s a much more limited loss.
And of course the completely different hygiene standards: Eggs in the EU must be sold unwashed, which means that companies actually have to keep the barns clean. It’s similar with chicken meat: It’s not like chlorinating chicken would be a health danger to humans, it’s that the hygiene conditions that would make chlorinating necessary, seen from the other side that chlorinating enables, are absolutely unconscionable. That’s why chlorinating is outlawed in the EU.
In another line of thought, though, we should have another class of eggs: Organic barn. The usual better feed, more space etc. but keep them inside, it’s not like chickens mind being inside. Vaccinating them sadly isn’t an option at this point, like it is with salmonella.
EU has sustainable practices, robust regulations, and way less idiots in power. There is a lot of idiots, but the way regulation works, it’s harder for them to fuckup. Not impossible, but harder.
Good chances that chicken plague is already here, but is dealt with appropriately and doesn’t have this devastating results.
Also, no measles.You realize Canada doesn’t have this issue, right? And they share a literal land border with the US. Why are you assuming the bird flu is some inevitable force that can’t be stopped?
No they are a symptom of a deregulated industry that can raise prices by 100% even though their costs have only gone up 2%, as long as a convenient excuse is pushed by the industry-aligned media.
Then, when the chicken plague is over, they lower the prices a tiny bit, to about 80% more than before, Trump declares victory, and the rich have become richer again.
Not one of them are wearing suits, how disrespectful.
But can you imagine the scandal if one wore a tan suit?!
They would never do that, their Americans not far left socialist nazis liberals.
Ive never seen a single soul wear eu gear. I just realized that.
You definitely get people with EU “gear” at large gatherings in the EU like protests and parades.
The boardwalk had plenty. Maybe you didn’t see the flag or maybe you didn’t go down range
That’s because a) the EU is a coalition of many different countries who all have their own flags, and b) we don’t fetishize our flags nearly as much as Americans. Many countries have laws against putting the flag on merchandise, because it’s seen as disrespectful.
TIL fetish doesn’t always mean sexual. I dont think as an American ive ever held an American flag or wore one.
I do remember wearing Puerto Rican flags as a kid at Puerto Rican parades. But not as an adult.
But yeah, we’re kinda weird with patriotism. Its always made me uncomfortable.
I guess the good news is your uncomfortable feeling has been vindicated. Where we are now is where nationalism leads.
That’s from a porno
Eurotica.
Sounds appealing.
Yeah especially when you stimulate your Euro zone at the same time.
New definition of money shot.
And so the image AI warfare begins
I mean, setting aside the “We’re from the Government and We’re Here To Help” liberalism that American conservatives reflexively recoil at, I do find it disorienting to pretend a heavily rural American breadbasket would need agriculturally scarce Europe to send food aid.
This reminds me of the 90s US effort to do welfare politics in West Africa, by dumping millions of tons of excess agriculture into Trans-Atlantic wholesale markets. The flood of “free” food (with tons of political strings attached) shifted the balance of power to the African urban centers, as local agricultural markets collapsed and people flooded to the industrial centers to get food at below the domestic production cost. Political leadership capable of controlling the influx of foodstuffs rapidly consolidated power within major port cities. This gave rise to authoritarian governments, political purges, and ultimately two horrifying Congolese Wars (the second often referred to as The Great War of Africa).
Obviously, more complicated than this. Along with food “aid” we also delivered a surplus of “military aid” to our regional allies (a list that was constantly shifting between US and African administrations, particularly during the fallout of the failure of the Soviet Union). Then there were a host of local tribal conflicts and score-settling that got ramped up to eleven with the sudden glut of foreign wealth.
But maybe I’m drawing lines where none exist. Can you really imagine how the US economy might be upset by a sudden shift in who controls the supply of cheap imports? Can you imagine what our country would look like if it was flush with small arms or if we had a bunch of local land barons with short tempers and delusions of grandeur? Can you conceive of an America that had a bunch of poorly defined interior borders that suddenly become flashpoints of political tension?
I certainly can’t. Bring on the flood of EU eggs!
number one, ew, ai slop, number two, i appreciate concern for americans getting more nutritious sources of protein and fiber but blaming consumers for lacking access to and time for better food is not a great strategy in my opinion
Hmm it’s as if the consumers did something to cause political instability.
How peculiar
Kinda like blaming a President at war for not saying “thank you” to its “benefactor” (despite having done so numerous times), no?
Kinda like blaming a President at war for not saying “thank you” to its “benefactor”
What’s crazy about this line is how frequently Zelenskyy has done the “America A#1, you’re the best!” media tour in the run up to this meeting. How many clammy-handed, rictus grin photo-ops does this guy have to do for you people? How many trips does he need to make to DC to say “Hello from Ukraine, I love you!” to Congress? Dude’s entire career as President has just been going abroad and brown-nosing for NATO support.
This reminds me of the British journalists who will cut an Arab liberal off in the middle of an “I am here to condemn Hamas and ask for release on behalf of the Palestinian people” automated response to grill them on why they haven’t condemned Hamas. It’s all just bullying at an international scale. I’m amazed Trump didn’t drag Zelenskyy into the restroom and try to give the man a swirly.
Yes, both are bad.
I’m still fuming over how childish that was. That oversized baby Vance was literally acting like some kid awkwardly trying to score some points in the eyes of his idol.
I want to post a photo of the bullies from A Christmas Story, but my account is too new to post images.
Put it on Facebook please
Hope the EU aid has some doctors as well to help that woman with her creepy event horizon demon eyes
Too much Fox “news” will do that.
Me when I put my baby in a chokehold:
Not enough obesity
When Maduro took over Venezuela, the average citizen lost 40 pounds, due to poor food distribution.
So America is just self regulating it’s weight?
Well, these are the ones who were able to make the trip.
No you see the Americans have all been starving because they can’t afford their eggs anymore.
Inb4 unleashing bird flu is RFK’s plan to combat the US obesity epidemic.
Someone’s AI is broken. Not a single fat American in sight…

Ran out of eggs
Just like chickens.
Just eat something else holy shit.
I get that the price of eggs is shorthand for the price of all food, which has gone up, but eggs specifically have gotten so expensive that egg substitute is about the same price at this point.
Sometimes it’s just okay though. To have a commonly understood simplification of a societal problem to meme about with others to share the pain or burden of the problem with.
I haven’t bought a carton of eggs since 2023 because I refuse to buy them once they’re higher than $2.50 a dozen.
That’s dumb. 2.50 is not a sustainable price. If you get local eggs from a humane farm, they are going to be expensive. It’s just how it is man. If anything, that should cause you using them wiser.
2.39 Euro, free-range, 10 piece. Organic is 3.39, barn 1.99, all incl. 7% VAT. so 12 barn ones would be 2.40. Granted, Aldi probably makes 0 profit from the barn ones but there’s only so much they can squeeze farmers. We’ve long since outlawed cages.
Didn’t ask.
You start a discussion on a discussion forum and then get surprised when someone starts discussing with you? How stupid are you?
Calm down babe it’s just eggs.
Ah the classic “me being an ass was just a joke” when called out on it.
No I really didn’t ask about his opinion on my spending habits.
Well US has shitload of soy now
Pasta
You’ll never believe what pasta is made of
Durum wheat and water.
Huh I didn’t know that thanks for informing me
Yellow pasta usually has eggs added, but eggs are not essential. As well as ignoring the eggs you can also substitute with spinach or tomatos (or squid ink or cocoa).
Yeah but have you seen the price of squid ink these days?!
I must have got mine cheap cos it was 6 quid.
Durum wheat semolina and water.
Liberals’ tears!
Only fresh pasta is made with eggs, dry pasta typically doesn’t use eggs. It’s semolina durum wheat and water, pushed through copper dies and then dried.
What do you suggest as an easy healthy source of protein?
Legumes like beans, lentils, peas, hummus, chickpeas,
Oats, quinoa, amaranth, buckwheat, whole wheat products,
Tofu in its various forms, including silk tofu as egg replacement in pancakes,
Other “meat substitutes” like seitan or sunflower seed mince,
Nuts, nut butters, nut flour,
Dairy products such as cottage cheese, joghurt,
Soy milk
I mean for real, eggs are super unnecessary for a protein rich or healthy diet. I would argue that unless you literally want to treat yourself with a sunny side up or an omelette you shouldn’t be using eggs at all. I like eggs, but a dozen lasts us (family of 3) a month easily.
No I mean so I can fry it and get fat.
Trust me, you can fry all those things and get fat.
Tofu
Billionaires.
Proteins are formed from amino acids and it is actually harder for you to assimilate when ingested as already assembled animal proteins as it needs to be broken down and rebuilt by your body. You can get all the aminos you need from vegetable sources such as potatoes, nuts, legumes, leafy greens etc.
The amino acids in plants come from proteins, too
Technically yes, but the main point was you don’t need animal proteins and they are harder to process for your body.
I like to airfry beans and eat them as a crunchy snack.
For breakfast specifically, oatmeal isn’t a bad choice.
Seitan is also very high in protein, containing 75g of protein per 100g compared to 13g per 100g for scrambled eggs (although its low on lysine, so it should be balanced out with other protein sources).
Ignore the legumes suggestion, it’s nasty af and makes most people’s stomachs bloated and inflammed (which gives gas and is the reason there are so many jokes on legumes giving people gas). Eat fish, nuts, artisanal cheeses (very low lactose compared to other cheeses) or even just homemade jerky. Good for the brain and no bloating unless you have some diagnosed gut diseases.
For those who can’t be bothered to read my replies, proof of legumes irritating the stomach of many people, causing bloating, causing gas and even pain:
https://health.clevelandclinic.org/why-do-beans-make-you-fart
Stay educated. You don’t HAVE to eat legumes, you can get fiber and essential nutrients in many other foods which is why I recommended other healthy foods, which don’t cause physical discomfort or pain.
A - not everyone has issues with legumes, don’t project your personal issues on everyone. B - just take a beano pill beforehand if you do have issues.
Ignore the healthy food, eat old milk and dried mystery meat.
Mystery meat? Are you ignorant? You can make jerky at home with fresh meat yourself, that’s why I said homemade jerky. Gotta love vegans downvoting this out of ignorance. Artisanal cheeses are very good for you too and fish is great omega 3s. Legumes irritate many people’s stomachs. Way to dismiss the reality of eating legumes.
it’s nasty af and makes most people’s stomachs bloated and inflammed
You never eat vegetables, do you? Much of the world lives off legumes. Having these issues with their digestion is caused by a poor gut microbiome from eating an extremely low-fiber diet.
I do eat vegetables, simply not legumes as they give me gas and bloating (and I’m not the only one it happens to, it’s so common, there’s a reason comedians joke about eating them and farting). Can we stop pretending legumes don’t cause gas and bloating? 😂 As if me pointing it out means I don’t eat veggies, gtfo here.
"Fiber makes you bloat
Beans are just one example of high fiber foods. When you eat a ton of fiber, you increase your chances of bloating, stomach pain and gas."
https://health.clevelandclinic.org/why-do-beans-make-you-fart
It’s not even hard to find this out. Btw it’s beans AND legumes in general that do this (the article mentions it and this is not the only source that says this). Happy reading.
In my experience your body gets used to high fiber content. It’s only when you don’t eat legumes regularly that they cause issues, now that I’m eating them several times a day there’s no bloating.
Yeah… morons just love to hang on the buzz word of the day.
does it have to be AI slop though?
Not just any AI, really shitty and obvious AI
It’s part of the meme at this point
Probably couldn’t find that many real unarmed Americans waiting properly for a real picture.
And to preempt the comments: I’ve seen videos of people tearing down the doors for black friday. I’ve seen people going with open carry to buy TP during covid, openly stating “I’ll get my TP one way or another”. No way hungry armed people won’t escalate. Sure this is human nature, but Americans are the ones with more guns than eggs, and very divisive at this point in time
I’ve been going through the pictures on my phone recently and found the perfect one from COVID:
The cars make it more realistic, anyway.
I lived through a hurricane down in Texas years back, and the poverty “pick up basic supplied” lines were really dehumanizing.
No shade, no real concern for humans, just passing out goods based on queue and hole with someone made it to the queue
And of course performed by cops… you know, paragons of society………………………
Probably couldn’t find that many real unarmed Americans waiting properly for a real picture.
Also, who could afford that many eggs?
This is locally-made European AI slop though
Is it organic nonGMO slop?
