There's a great maze of tunnels, a Labyrinth. It's like a great dark city, under the hill. Full of gold, and the swords of old heroes, and old crowns, and bones, and years, and silence.

Yep, it's a popular bit of cognitive dissonance among right wingers. You see the same with Americans talking about NYC - somehow it's simultaneously Assault on Precinct 13 meets The Warriors there, but also entirely populated by effete liberal sissies who wouldn't last five minutes in the Real World

Let UNRWA Aid Trucks Into Gaza The regionโ€™s most experienced aid agency could feed all of Gazaโ€™s population for three monthsโ€”if Israel would just let them do their job.

At this very moment, UNRWA alone has 6,000 trucks waiting just beyond the border with enough food to feed the entire population of Gaza for 3 mos

Why is Israel restricting UNRWA, and the UN, from doing the work they know best?

In Jaws when Hooper's checking out the wrecked boat and Ben Gardner's head pops out, the kid sat right in front of me literally jumped a foot in the air like there was a spring in his seat.

Also: the guy who stood up and yelled FUCK YEAH when Mr Blonde finally got shot in Reservoir Dogs.

Wrote an offhand post saying "somebody should write Heretic but for" [redacted] โ€” and before I posted, it flicked a switch in my brain. So I've just spent the past half hour frantically scribbling notes for a new thing.

Dunno if I'll ever do anything with it... but I caught lightning in a bottle.
