Once I was watching my brother play counter strike and he would turn away in game and irl whenever he threw a flash bang.

He didn’t even realize he was doing this until I pointed it out.

You are correct. Seven is captured and forced to fight in a sport called “Tsunkatse”.

Here’s the fight: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DYUyTcoe0qw

It’s a reference to the movie They Live. The protagonist finds glasses that let him see the hidden truth of our world.

The joke in this meme is that the truth isn’t even hidden anymore, it’s embraced.

The 29-year-old complete quadriplegic shared that he had lost sensation and suffered paralysis from below the shoulders after sustaining a spinal injury during a diving accident eight years ago

Arbaugh also revealed that the implant had given him the freedom to pull an all-nighter playing the strategy game Sid Meier’s Civilization 6 - something that he could not have done on his own before the surgery.

This is the kind of use case for neuralink that I’m okay with.

To the several people who reported this post:

This community does not have a ban on AI generated images. Especially ones as silly and harmless as this.

Should a user abuse AI generated images, such as spamming them, then action will be taken against them. But one-off silly images like this are fine.

One of my favorite examples of Jordan Peterson stupidity is when he was lecturing about some ancient civilization artwork that showed two serpent creatures creating humanity. He said that because the snakes were drawn in a double helix that this ancient civilization knew about and wanted to represent DNA.

Snakes coil around one another in a double helix when they mate. The snake creatures in the art were just fucking.
