It's shocking how dim this man is.

I saw the photo like the rest of us, and it is instantly obvious that the "MS13" was digitally added - it's utterly disconnected from the object (hand) contours and of a uniform opacity. I thought the purpose of the (obviously) added text was to indicate that each inked image below the letters stood for / represented that letter - I don't know anything about gang tat symbology.

But trump believes they are actually a part of the tattoo on that poor (probably now deceased) guy's hand. I just did not realize he was quite that dim.

Run in to Live - Aobram's sister

"Scientists discovered a new colour! They're calling it #olo." My excitement was obvious.

"Something wrong with the old colours?" Asked the elder.

"It's a very saturated blue green. It'll make other colours seem #dim. Here, you can see it with these special glasses. They might tingle your eyes."

I put the glasses on him. "See, there's a sort of bright teal..."

"Ah, yes. Olo, you say?" He asked, taking off the glasses. "We call it luzan."

"You what?!" My jaw dropped as he handed me the glasses.

"It's a good start," he patted me on the back, as if I were a child with macaroni art. "Now, when you learn to see such colours without glasses, you'll be ready."

"Ready for what?!"

#MastoPrompt : Saturday 19 April 2025 : #dim

The candle of hope, once a beacon for all, flickers in the chill winds of change.

What was once good and right is now tarnished; sullied by the misdeeds of a poisonous few.

The light of the candle so #dim it is hard to see beyond the moment.

The future obfuscated by malice, hatred, loathing and fear of that which is not of "them".

Is the only solution that which remains unsaid?

dim all the bright lights
hasten the collective sleep
we can dream in peace

¡Que árbitro tan malo este del clásico #paisa! Solo le falta echar a 5 de Medellín para ayudar a esos p*** del verde. Les ha perdonado dos o tres rojas y un penal
