Federal law enforcement agents shot and killed a man in Minneapolis on Jan. 24 according to local police officials. DHS told Fox News that the man was “armed with a gun”. A video of the shooting appears to show that a gun was taken from the man before the first shot was fired. x.com/BillMelugin_...

This does seem just a little bit bad! Idk the sort of thing you’d think politicians might distance themselves from or something!

The tattered outlaw of the earth,
Of ancient crooked will;
Starve, scourge, deride me: I am dumb,
I keep my secret still.

Fools! For I also had my hour;
One far fierce hour and sweet:
There was a shout about my ears,
And palms before my feet.

I think also under right aspect of it is attractiveness, you never see a like somewhat attractive American actor they’re all at least an 8 out of 10. Which makes them look implausible in various situations.

I mean, I don’t think it helps that the rebels in firefly are explicitly presented as being sort of lost cause types. But to be honest, it’s been ages since I watched firefly s

I think that he’s the wrong type of nerd for Rob.
Rob is a spreadsheet nerd
Magnus is a book nerd. Think rob would be too willing to crush free thought for Magnus.
My bet is him thinking that he can convince logar to drop the religion, and just do psker stuff
(Wrongly)

See I think rob would screw up the pitch, as he would be too confident, and wouldn’t thing about how pert needs to be treated. (Feed his ego)

Think your wrong about dorn, he was described as being really close with Horus. Weirdly, I think pert much more likely to be with the lion.
Also, I think Magnus is far more likely to be with logar which is funny with Russ

Chicago priest Fr. Larry Dowling describes procession to ICE facility: “No one had the courage to speak directly to us. No one from Homeland Security could stand in the presence of the Monstrance holding the Blessed Sacrament. No wonder. Evil is repelled, recoils in the presence of Christ.”

"Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear. Remember that."

Looking forward to seeing Jimmy back on the air.

I would be interested in an invite

My Once-in-a-Million-Years Love Story When my best friend was diagnosed with cancer, I promised to be with her until the end. Then all hell broke loose.

The nicest thing I can say here is that it’s good that the story starts with her getting a divorce because it was probably a good way of limiting the damage

They’re Rich, They Travel and They Love to Complain

Two things here I already knew: 1. Rich people are completely miserable, and 2. The NYTimes is obsessed with rich people.

To be honest that’s probably why they’re slightly better remembered comma (and the other reason) at least in 1942 you can be excused for thinking that a battleship by itself is a serious danger

One of the interesting parts of this book was that the iron axe head was as transformative for indigenous warfare (at least in Eastern North America) as the gun because they could easily breach the wooden palisades used in Native fortifications

Ok, one like = one game recommendation.

If you're in the UK and want decent, free basic training in safeguarding then:

1) register an FA account
2) do all their online free courses for coaches/volunteers/committee members.

Hell, last time i checked the full Welfare Officer course was only 20 quid.

All certainlu better than nothing.

‘Terrible racket’: bishop in dressing gown shuts down London choir concert Jonathan Baker complained over noise ‘in my house’, telling stunned singers night is ‘over’

“At first, I thought it was a comedy act or some actor doing a scene. But when we realised, oh no, this isn’t an act, this is real, it was just a bit surreal.”

Interesting dynamic where Odysseus thinks some of the guys trying to bang his wife aren't that bad and don't deserve to die but Athena is like "hahahaha, no, we're going to murder All Of Them."

Would be surprised TBH, JG has a good track record, and superman is the biggest hero still.
Guess will have to wait for word of mouth

France/United Kingdom : Britain's top spy Richard Moore, the cool-headed Europhile at the head of MI6 - 30/05/2025 - Intelligence Online Despite dealing with the fall-out from Brexit and the AUKUS controversy, Richard Moore has become a well-liked figure in Europe, a testament to both his diplomatic acumen and his skill as a spy - 5/30...

"In 2022, [Moore] & French counterpart Bernard Émié introduced annual seminars for SIS and DGSE [officers] to meet...regularly & share best practices. Hosted alternately...UK meet-ups have been held near ...Portsmouth—they will continue after Moore leaves" www.intelligenceonline.com/government-i...

One of GKC best, bloody quotable and relevant and then completely flipped at the end.

A Chesterton line that I often think of -

"There is in the world a very aged rioter and demagogue who breaks into the most refined retreats with the dreadful information that all men are brothers, and wherever this leveller went on his pale horse it was Father Brown’s trade to follow."

I think the difficulty is that the most famous “new one ” was the one at the Tower of London, which is many things but understated is not one of them.

I know nothing about watches, so I can’t comment on that cultural reference. Seems plausible though.

Absolutely, and I think there’s also probably some good writing on the direct linkage from it being about remembering the dead of the war to remembering Britain soldiers.The whole point of them (from what I was told by older generations).
They didn’t care what side you were on they just grew anyway

But even that’s mostly a reaction to the initial genuine loss suffered across the population. And I think has been Amped up by the Centennial.
All those poppy displays popping up simultaneously to mark the hundred years, happening at the same time as the Brexit business.
