Ian McKellen using Shakespeare to tear off the false moral mask that xenophobes wear across the west
YouTube video by Tkio Ian McKellen using Shakespeare to tear off the false moral mask that xenophobes wear across the west

People often ask, is Shakespeare still relevant? Why study the humanities? Well, here is an example from the Colbert show, in which Ian McKellen spontaneously delivers an extraordinary speech -- relevant as ever. Shakespeare’s words are timeless, urgent and important. www.youtube.com/watch?v=TQiw...

Where is your confidence coming from? Filoni was single-handedly responsible for the disaster in writing and acting that was Ahsoka. And while Mandalorian is, overall, watchable, the first few episodes of each season tend to be a slog (generic β€œmonster of the weekβ€œ stuff) before the pace picks up.

This is one of the most epic baseball games I’ve ever watched. No matter how it ends, both teams look spectacular. #gotigers

Yes, we’re into the playoffs, but no Greene and no Dingler looks like AJ doesn’t care if we win this one.

It’s hard for people to avoid hypocrisy and defend free expression. But it still so jarring to see senior officials failing miserably.

If there’s anything more annoying than the Lions not being in the Super Bowl, it’s people on social media trying to get attention by loudly proclaiming that they *won’t* be watching the game. Dissing something super popular (e.g., Taylor Swift) is the low-hanging fruit for these narcissists.

I think the broilers get to wander around a bit, but the egg hens have it tough. But we can never know how chickens truly β€œfeel” so this question is sadly impossible to answer with confidence.

Lots of folks really missing the point here. Do you believe for one second that China has our interests in mind? US rich folks, on the other hand, need our country to stay prosperous for their own (greedy) reasons.

I read the entire article, ma’am. Hence my comment. I have reread it just now. I see no links or scientific explanations explaining how removing those dams and reservoirs had no effect on fire fighting. Worse, everyone is screaming β€œracist!β€œ But I see nothing racist about his remarks.

I seem to missed where she rebutted his claims that removing the dams and reservoirs was affecting firefighting. Just labeling something β€œracist” does not refute it. And β€œstolen” land? It’s irrelevant to the debate about fires and it’s also, historically, how nearly every country built itself.
