If I see one more person who can't hold "Khameini was bad for Iranians" and "the US and Israel are worse for Iranians" in their mind at the same, I SWEAR TO GOD

Yeah, I’m pretty sure khameini was the only evil person in Iran. Should be smooth sailing from here on out. /s

I wrote a thing about β€œdead cats” a while ago and concluded that people love saying this a) because they think it makes them sound sophisticated and street smart but also b) because they crave the feeling that there are people somewhere in control of what is going on, rather than simply chaos

Not everything is about the Epstein files and it does a disservice to the people of Iran (not to mention the people of Venezuela and Epstein's victims themselves) to claim otherwise.

Just seen my first "Trump is attacking Iran to distract from the Epstein files" post.

No. Let's not do this.

Trump has been talking about attacking Iran since before 98% of us had heard of Epstein. He has been talking about this since Obama was president, probably longer.

This is what he wants.

Times like these I’m so glad Merrick Garland stuck to β€œnorms” & refused to prosecute Trump for his many crimes. Because yesβ€”while we are facing the very real threat of global nuclear warβ€”at least we don’t have the shame of a former president sitting in prison. Boy would that’ve been embarrassing.

When you were a kid, did you ever meet another kid who was clearly out of their mind, and incredibly troubled and destructive, who made you really uncomfortable to be around, and you just hoped that they would grow up to… Not be like that?

And then they grew up to be even worse?

i was raised conservative, and still pretty right wing in fall of 1992 but even I thought when Rush was holding up pictures of Chelsea and calling her a dog something was NOT ok here

You wake up in the morning
With gray clouds overhead
And you struggle for the will
To rise up out of bed
The world outside is frightening
A sad and dismal place
You pray for inspiration
A moment of pure grace
Maybe there’s something out there
To take away these blues
Perhaps

Lost 19th century film by Méliès discovered at the Library | Timeless Library conservators recently made a startling discovery in a batch of decaying film reels -- a long-lost 1897 film by early cinema icon George Méliès. The French magician-turned-filmmaker's

"The 45-second film, made around 1897, was the first appearance on film of what might be called a robot"

HELL. YES.

it's kind of funny(?) how easy Donald Trump is to manipulate. too bad he surrounds himself with white supremacists (cause he is one)

This is actress Rebecca Ferguson, the real one and not a scam. Accept my private message request.

why on earth would you message me if you were real

I need you to watch my movies.

the scam is just messaging individual people to watch rebecca ferguson movies?

I have been a fan of yours ever since I read a post about how you sneezed so hard the yellow acorn flew off your penis shaft.
In Dune 2 I played the powerful mother of a thin desert boy.

Skill issue. If you post good, the right people will figure out how to get in touch with you.

he's an opportunist, he's reading the room, and probably running for president and knows he doesnt have Trump's blessing. First and foremost Stitt is a business man. He didn't really get along with Ryan Walters either, but he sure allows it. He's worse than Fallen, and not a major player.

the scary thing is most of the GOP (and democrats) got away with it. They're not the same, one sucks way more.

If you have to insult other women to compliment a woman, it is not a compliment, it is a threat to all women.

The implication that a woman's worth is contingent upon a personal sliding scale of your approval is how we got to where we are.
