Every accusation is a confession.

To be fair, this is the best Leica ad I've ever seen.

I agree with you that โ€œblaming the votersโ€ is unproductive. Candidates need to go to where their voters are, not expect them to go to where they want them to be. However you need to explain how it requires โ€œimmense privilegeโ€œ to turn the TV on to watch the RNC on one of the networks.

Movie youโ€™ve watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Stars (Wars nor Trek), LOTR, or Marvel, Disney Animated or Pixar.

Maybe he thinks he's scarier if people believe his ambition is to become Baron Harkonnen?

She then moved on to the Pixar movies Coco and Soul (both really beautiful movies) which she watched over and over for a year. Just pick content you can enjoy too because youโ€™re going to be seeing a lot of it. 2/2

Donโ€™t try too hard. Find a smaller number of quality movies that work for him that you can also enjoy and put them in over and over. A 5 year old can watch the same movie 100 times over. My then 3 yr old daughter watched the Disney Elephant movie on a loop through the first 6 months of Covid 1/2

We wanted to know how the teachings of Jesus compare with the teachings of Charlie Kirk. So we walked down the hall and talked with Ross Douthat.

90% of elected Dems do not know how to fight, do not want to fight, did not run for office to fight, and are not smart enough or principled enough to fight. They entered office so they could fiddle with policy and feel important, they want to hide until it blows over, and will find excuses to do so.

Look, the actual causes of the Revolutionary War are oft misunderstood, but to be clear: this is bullshit

It was a dispute about the nature of the British empire, & specifically whether the American colonies had the same standing relative to the king as Great Britain did, or, rather...

The only really good one. Generations was passable. The other two were just double episodes with a cinematic release.

Did the founding fathers want a king? Here's what a group of originalist legal scholars had to say.

Thank you for your patriotism and service to the country and your courage to do the right thing. One day the bureau will need people with your experience and integrity to rebuild. I hope they will know where to look.

That could be a dangerous mistake. Take this from someone who has lived for decades with feline cortortionists: your cat is being deadly serious.

I wish I could. I live in Southern California. There are pro-Ukraine protests in Beverly Hills but they are as devoid of impact as any protest around here. You stand at a junction and hope passing cars will honk their horns in support. Good luck tomorrow.
