It's actually a dense philosophical treatise that the human soul is contained within the heart instead of the brain, thus falling firmly on the "nature" side of the "nature vs. nurture" debate.

... or maybe I'm just still hungover from the party last night. I'm not sure which.

Videos from the scene at North Kildare Avenue and West Old Irving Park showed a group of neighbors marching down the street, filming and blowing whistles as they cussed out federal agents. The officers seen were all masked, some wearing sunglasses.

β€œThe (expletive) out of there man. The (expletive) are you guys doing here? Get out of our city,” Carlos Rodriguez, the resident who filmed the videos, can be heard saying on the recording.
β€œHey, you are all (expletive) cowards,” another man yells.

I think it's less "this election is all it will take to make it fall" and more "we've seen how easy it can be for one loud asshole with a megaphone to start normalizing previously unthinkable shit so let's just cut it off at the knees before it even comes to that"

A.
Well, I'm sure you're familiar with my film Titanic.
When I
14
set down the path to make that film, the first thing that I did
15
was arrange to be introduced to the head of the submersible
16
program at the P.P. Shirshov Institute in Moscow, a guy named
17|
Professor
I. I did that through a mutual friend
18
of ours, a guy named
, who is one of the preeminent
underwater cinematographers in the world. And had been on a
20
submersible expedition out to Titanic the previous year with the
21
Russians. And that was organized by a Canadian company that was
22 doing an IMAX film which was released under the title Titanica.

Learned that an anonymous outside expert on submersibles did an interview with the OceanGate Titan investigation, and they released a transcript, with all the names redacted. The first line of his first answer? "I'm sure you're familiar with my film Titanic."

I think what's bothering me about all these statements I'm seeing from politicians that are variations of "Israeli hostages and Palestinians are returning to their homes, yay" is that Israelis are returning to their homes and Palestinians are returning to uninhabitable post apocalyptic rubble.

smurfs are the size they are because the lack internal structure. they are closer to gelatinous lichens than they are true fungi. they cannot grow larger without dedicated vasculature in our current oxygen environment. millions of years ago when there was more oxygen they were substantially larger.

Now that the local and national press have started to cover the Portland ICE area round-the-clock in reaction to the President, Antifa have devised a plan where they are encouraging one another to come in animal costumes.

The costumes serve the function of masking the violent extremism to make the direct action appear like a family-friendly gathering on camera, and to whitewash the past ultraviolence. 

In 2019, Antifa devised a similar plot by giving out free "milkshakes" at a protest. But they couldn't contain their bloodthirst and nearly killed me when they saw me. In 2020, they mobilized a fake "Wall of Moms" where female Antifa supporters and members wore yellow shirts to act as human body shields while violent rioters behind them hurled projectile weapons.
