Prompt : a creepy, scary nightmarish easter bunny entering a kids bedroom at night, with a basket of eerie looking black eggs. Nightmare style, stuff of nightmare.
It took place on a weekday morning, in the late 2000s, I dropped my ex at her workplace, and then I start driving towards my own workplace. I need to take a tunnel downtown, there's a traffic light just before the tunnel. The light is red, I wait. The light turns green, I go ahead, along with another car next to me.
Right behind me, in my mirror, I see police cars blocking the street at the traffic light. I'm the last car that went through the traffic light. No other cars can make it behind me.
I'm kinda freaking out. Why are the police cars blocking the way to the tunnel?
I then realize there are only two cars in the tunnel, mine, and the car just before me. No other car. At 9am. On a weekday. What the hell is going on?
I keep on driving, everything seems normal, apart from the complete lack of cars.
Eventually, I see the end of the tunnel, with police cars on either side of the road. And police officers making OBVIOUS signs with their arms : "Get the fuck out of there, quick, faster!".
Me and the other car make it out of the tunnel, then In my mirror, again, I see 4 police cars blocking the way out of the tunnel.
I turned on the radio. Nothing about this event. I searched the news websites for the whole day, I didn't find anything. I asked around, at work, in social media, nobody knew about this. I didn't think of calling the police station. I never learned what the hell happened in this tunnel.
My bet is it was either a bomb threat, or they had to catch a known criminal in this tunnel, or maybe a collapse danger of some kind. But the fact that it didn't make local news is mind boggling to me. I sometimes wonder if I dreamed this.
I think third world country.
Dear mobile game devs. When I play games like that, I always wonder if it's the physics engine that's actually random and produces the result?
Or is the result calculated before the animation happens, and dictates the animation?
I've always wondered. I have some notion of programming, but from far back, and I've been scratching my head long enough about this.
Thanks in advance.
My young son and I have been watching the Harry Potter movies since the holidays, it's his first time watching them.
We did this together earlier today.

Blue pill. Restarting with all my knowledge, I might end up not meeting my soulmate and not having my kid, because of randomness. I can't have that.
She had a good opportunity to abolish monarchy there...

Whenever someone has a very traditional, conservative discourse online, I like to ask if their vision is based on movement. 🦖
Gotta plan accordingly, or carry a poop knife.
That's not just a supervisor that's a proper leader.
As ridiculous as this movie was, I always thought that the trailer for Star Wars Episode I : The Phantom Menace shouldn't have shown Darth Maul's double bladed lightsaber.
