I can’t believe you lefty Luddites hate tech so much that you embrace mRNA vaccines, heat pumps, electric bikes, hybrid work, renewable power (and awesome advancements in storage), space telescopes, and hot/cold running water but reject the planet destroying plagiarism enrich the worst people bots!

Dubya was basically an antebellum one termer β€” a drunk idiot failson turned evangelical teetotaler β€” who accidentally found himself in the 21st century. I think if you put a Pierce or Fillmore in office on 9/11 with Dick Cheney in their ear they’d have more or less acted the same way.

You may laugh, but the Macbeths are a much better role model for a marriage than Romeo and Juliet. They discuss their problems (killing the king of Scotland), share their hobbies (killing the king of Scotland), and resolve their conflicts (by killing the king of Scotland).

Chadwick Boseman and James van der Beek both died in their 40s of an illness that's treatable if a colonoscopy catches it but almost no insurer covers them for people under 45, this is what Engels meant by "social murder"

I have been made aware of reports of an ICE agent firing a gun into a car in Roxbury this week.

Whenever ICE is around, you can expect violence. It's time to ABOLISH ICE.

Until then, NJ must use its full might to pass laws protecting us from ICE.

My BIL is a veteran who did two tours during Iraq & Afghanistan. He has PTSD. He is brown and lives in MSP. He gets telehealth therapy from the VA. And his job is allowing him to work from home so this two tour Navy vet with PTSD doesn't accidentally get shot by the Gestapo. Anyway.

A traveler from an antique land--great guy--said to me with tears in his eyes "Sir, two vast and trunkless legs of stone stand in the desert." And I said wow, that's really something. But we'll be building a big beautiful statue to my hubris and it will stand for eternity

Star Trek Deep Space Nine scene. And in case you never gave it a fair shake, DS9 is absolutely the real deal good shit. Ok, so here we see a fella named Damar. He's a Cardassian with a "C" not the other ones. He's got a boney ridgey facial structure because he's not human, with spiney features on his face and forehead and around his eyes. And a mega thicc neck too. He's wearing a military shell type armour outfit that also looks hard and tough. He's addressing the camera, as if he's making some kind of announcement. It's 3 screenshots but the visual is all the same. Damar looking serious as a heart attack. Closed caption reads, "RESIST. RESIST TODAY. RESIST TOMORROW."

(Also, in case you were wondering, FUCK ICE)

The Republican position on guns is and always was that guns can only be used by lone wolves to murder schoolchildren or by Republicans to murder whoever they want.

It is genuinely insane to watch capital decide that allowing this shit to go on is better for them than having to allow the FTC to do mild monopoly investigations and require cancellation buttons on websites.

We have been told for nearly 30 years that America needed to tolerate mass shootings because the broad availability of guns would help us defend ourselves from an overreaching federal government. That day has come. The people who said this are supporting the federal agents. Many have joined them.

I hope that Democrats realize what’s happening in Minnesota is also a dry run for what the regime has planned for the midterms.

After federal troops forced a fugitive slave named Anthony Burns back into slavery in the 1850s, one Bostonian wrote, β€œwe went to bed one night old-fashioned, conservative, Compromise Union Whigs and waked up stark mad Abolitionists.” The abuse of power radicalizes people. We are seeing that now.

Ben Affleck Says β€˜Argo’ Oscar Snub for Best Director Was β€˜Massive Embarrassment’ 'Argo' won the Oscar for best picture but Ben Affleck didn't even get nominated for best director. He says it was a 'massive embarrassment.'

Oh man, it must suck to have your contributions to a project ignored on such a massive stage.

Reminds me that time when some guy made a movie about the ingenious plan a bunch of Canadian officials made to smuggle US embassy personnel out of Iran, but the movie credited the CIA for the plan instead.
