Where's Habeas Corpus

Whatever happened to your reservation at gitmo?

Her parents owe their lives to the United States accepting them as asylum seekers fleeing religious persecution in Iraq in the 1980s. She wouldn't be here if we had not offered her family safe haven.

The hypocrisy is stunning.

Star Trek: Strange New Worlds S3E10 seems to be a blatant rip-off of Kirk's trip to the Nexus in generations. If so, lame.

​Loneliness is the true driver behind the algorithm. When real connection is scarce, we escalate online provocation just to get noticed. More shock = more popularity = more dopamine. It's a tough, lonely cycle that will probably only get worse before it gets better.

I got mine on Thursday and the post office upgraded mine with something that I hope is a coffee drop/smudge.

So say we all!

Mohammed bin Salman Al Saud, heir to the throne of Saudi Arabia and current de-facto ruler of that kingdom, whose word is law and power is unquestioned, is visibly like “whoah dude, dial down the authoritarian thing a bit”

This is one of those people you've written about many times. They've created a rich fantasy world where every day is an episode of "24" & only they can prevent the destruction of society. No amount of talking, reasoning or information can change this person's position because it's who they are now.

This has been acknowledged a hundred times over, here and elsewhere. The debate is whether we can still fight it with Democratic means or whether we've gone past that and now must give up on Democracy and overthrow a fascist government by other means. We aren't there yet.

The most astounding part is that there is no light going off in her head right now. She doesn't equate anything that she's ever done in her past to what's happening right now. She still feels completely righteous in all of her actions.

He's long-wanted to create an army of people willing to do anything in his name. This is not a new idea and it's right up the Trump alley.

The movie of my life demands the most diabolical nemesis I can think of. How else am I going to get a sequel?

How are we this far in and people don't realize that Trump's superpower and Achilles heel is branding? Epstein is a toxic brand & tying it to Trump is the strongest, most effective strategy yet. Still those who are supposed to "know politics better" than anybody else can't figure that out????

Misogyny plays, at least, as big a role as racism does in America and may be more hardwired into daily life. Many people would rather be persecuted by a man (of any color) than be led by a woman.

I think you're missing the point. They're not suggesting that these are necessarily bad movies, they're just not Bond movies. They are suggesting that they actually do not have a Bond franchise but a "Craig as someone named Bond" franchise.

Who could have predicted that in 2025, the GOP will determine that "having sex with 12-17-year-olds isn't actually pedophilia or even a crime and is totally in line with Christian values because Mary was 12-14 years old when God put a baby in her"? Unbelievable.

Brutal, heart-rending, and painful. Every American should read it and reflect.

At least we didn't have this glut of supposed "reality" TV that reinforce all of the worst character traits of humanity.

My carny family regularly traveled through the LA area in the 70s -80s during my early youth and I remember the orange skies. We eventually settled down somewhere else but when I returned in my late twenties I couldn't believe it was the same place.

Why does the entire "do your own research", "think for yourself" "don't be a sheeple" crowd look like they have been shit out of Calvin's transmogifier after someone in a basement wrote "MAGA Karen" on the side?

Way cooler than my bobbley head easter bunny.

DDT, Asbestos, and lead paint beg for an audience in this discussion.

I was young so maybe I missed the whole November inauguration party.

Few people under 25 were buying new cars in the a 80s but "the 80s had to be better than today because my parents never told me stories of their crushing debt from multiple car loans."

They forget that $500 entry level Apple phone is thousands of times faster than the top of the line $10,000,000 Cray Y-MP Supercomputer of 1990. It weighed 2,500 lbs, needed its own apartment and climate control, and required 30-50kW of power vice Apple's 6 oz and 2-5 watts fitting in your pocket.

Same but mine was a 2 bath. I thought I was a genius when I refinanced at 6% around 2000.
