AccidentalRenaissance is for photos that look like Renaissance paintings.

This means that they look like Renaissance art in their composition, their coloring, their saturation, the angle of the scene, the types of settings, etc.

๐Ÿ‘‰ Must be a photo. Not a meme, drawing, art, ai-generated or ai-enhanced image, screenshot, low-effort post, meta posts, video, or anything else but a photo.

๐Ÿ‘‰ Must be SFW. No gore, porn, extreme violence, blood, corpses, or similarly disturbing content. Absolutely no pornography, even if it's "tasteful".

๐Ÿ‘‰ Comments must be civil. No slurs of any kind or using words to insult, demean, harass, or abuse other individuals or groups.

๐Ÿ‘‰ The Renaissance part (not the photo itself) must be accidental to the photograph. In other words, no photos of Renaissance fairs, people dressed in medieval/Renaissance clothes, etc.

๐Ÿ‘‰ NO influencer selfies, professional photoshoots with watermarks, any type of OnlyFans-like content. We are not the place to work your side-hustle.

๐Ÿ“ธ If you know who the photographer is, give them credit in the comment section. This is the only type of self-promotion we allow.

๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐Ÿฆฏ Alt-Text for vision-impaired users in the post body or in the comments is highly encouraged. Just pretend you are describing a photo to someone on the phone.

A properly deployed taser is basically a guaranteed concussion. I'm glad this guy was too close to get a good shot off.

As sometimes outside the US, this entire thread is absolutely insane regarding the normalisation and justification for violence in general and tasers specifically

[โ€“] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago

I just read every comment on this post and you might be a bit mistaken about how much "normalization and justification for violence" is actually going on here. Everyone, aside from one person (Guydht), is condemning this abuse of force. Everyone.

Just because that one person was very vocal about their opinion doesn't mean that there was a plethora is commenters agreeing with him.

Are we reading the same thread? Just about everyone in here is criticizing the cop.

[โ€“] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago

Exactly. I read all of the current comments and only counted one person defending the abuse of power. It was a very vocal person, but just one person.

So interesting thing about tazers, they only paralyze muscle that is in between the propes during the tazer cycle. That's why the little probes spread out the further they get from the tazer. See how close those wires are? That means he is extremely close and there is no immobilization happening it's just causing pain. The range is far too close to be effective even if the use were justified.
