small brain: "the elves frown upon human-elf relationships because they are hidebound reactionaries"

large brain: "any elf that has sex with a human under the age of 100 is a disgusting pervert"

a fun thing to ask him would've been "hey so what's the deal with your white house counsel being in the epstein files?"

"the declaration of independence was written by a child rapist" just does not compute

then when people realize this they get stunlocked if they ever then make the next logical conclusion of "many of the founding fathers were monsters" (and therefore can't even similarly progress to "and if they're the ones that made the constitution then the constitution is also bad")

We've finally come full circle. People are longing for less chatter dialogue in their games by referencing ocarina, a game that people consistently complained about Navi being too talkative to the point of it being a meme for 20 odd years.

every time bluesky management gives a terrible pr response to something I think about this lol

Has Minnesota not been through enough?

Plantation of Ulster - Wikipedia

As St Patrick's Day nears and as we discuss the whole "English-Scots-Irish" bit today, it's a good moment to learn about the Ulster Plantation--AKA "Why your so-called 'Irish ancestry' might actually be Scottish in ways that eventually led to The Troubles"

Hey everyone. Potentially the biggest story in the country, right here. substack.com/home/post/p-...

Reminder that the board of trustees for the British Museum includes Tracey Emin, Danny Finkelstein, Tom Holland (no, not that one) Claudia Winkleman and Mary Beard and it is really easy to boycott and/or disrupt their work publicly.

This is one reason I think it's important that SOME of the masking serves to hide that people of color are working Stephen Miller's goons squad. It shows that EVEN THERE their white nationalist mythology is false.

something we don't talk about is how gullible the current ruling class is to chinese propaganda. these guys are cucks and morons who bought into state-created lies about han chinese ethnicity

At long last, we have created the Torment Nexus from classic sci-fi novel Use the Revenues From the Torment Nexus to Build the Republic of Salò!

A man in an army uniform sits in a suburban living room: it is Christopher Walken in pulp fiction

I always say this—if any data or footage is collected anywhere, eventually police will come asking for it or someone will figure out a way to sell them access to it. This is also true of ICE.

Measles is one of those nightmare diseases that, if it hadn't been killing people for hundreds of years, people would ABSOLUTELY be pushing conspiracy theories about right now. It's too nasty in too many different directions to seem natural. But oh, boy, it sure is.

ICE is still here. People are still needed on the ground, funds are still needed . . . (Doron Clark is one of our state senators here in Minnesota and his videos are always worth watching.)

Just finding out now that the CEO of Chuck E Cheese is mentioned in the Epstein Files

i can’t stop laughing

Cops are bastards.

Cops are cowards.

And once you understand why misogynists would say only men need be heard on women's rights you also understand why the BBC has decided only cis people need be heard on trans rights: their inherent inferiority means they are not worth listening to.

Can’t believe we are still doing this

I, a child of rednecks and descendant of millworkers, have more in common with these men than anyone who calls them my enemy.

The John Wick series is so effective because it fully embodies the three major tenets of dumb guy fantasy: 1. being able to kick anyone’s ass, 2. living by a code of honor, and 3. paying for things with gold coins
