I would just like to point out that that photo is doctored, and jd vance does not in fact look like that.

His real face is less hairy and way more shiny

[–] Dasus@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I thought that was a gif at first, but it was my eyes playing tricks on me.

Like a mostly still gif, but like the eyes just quickly dart back and forth every 5 seconds or so.

Dammit, you made me look again.
You win this round...

At this point i don't remember the correct proportions of that face anymore

[–] Dasus@lemmy.world 14 points 1 month ago

This is clearly AI, he has way too many fingers on his hand; five.

I see him more as a lobster type of thing.

[–] WanderWisley@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

This IS the correct proposition of his face.

[–] MissJinx@lemmy.world 15 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Guys i'm not american, but just to confirm, is this really how this person looks like?!! That doesn't look healthy

[–] I_Fart_Glitter@lemmy.world 37 points 1 month ago (2 children)

He's somewhere in this mix.

It is the offical one though

[–] 0x0@lemmy.zip 5 points 1 month ago

Last one has Total Recall vibes.

I don't do physics anymore but my quantum professor's doctoral advisor's doctoral advisor was in this image. Max born I think

[–] mathemachristian@hexbear.net 4 points 1 month ago

Pretty sure these people are the jengiz khans of doctoral advisors

Is this Marie Curie on the front row?

[–] ExLisper@lemmy.curiana.net 10 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Maria Skłodowska-Curie, yes.

[–] HenriVolney@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Didn't know she and Einstein met... Where is it? Somewhere in Europe I presume

. Pauli’s sharp tongue was legendary; he once said about a bad paper: “This isn’t right; this isn’t even wrong.”

That's MY type of scientist!

[–] HenriVolney@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 month ago

Wow, great read, thanks!

[–] idiomaddict@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I only recognize Nobel (not even certain about him), Curie, Freud, and Einstein, that’s bad.

Thanks and sorry, Hendrik Lorentz! I’d consider it a grave insult to be confused for Freud, lol.

[–] MBM@lemmings.world 9 points 1 month ago

I skipped Schrödinger because fuck that paedo

[–] SlartyBartFast@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 month ago

Looks like Vance with too much hair

[–] NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

All important Science 100% done by some white men.

[–] porous_grey_matter@lemmy.ml 11 points 1 month ago (1 children)

*some white men plus Marie Curie

[–] NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone 4 points 1 month ago

And I think a couple of Indians. But possibly my point still stands.

[–] HowAbt2day@futurology.today 2 points 1 month ago

Who are these people, and would anyone have their addresses so I can thank them personally?
