reader, it happened to me..
🚨 0451 Game Alert 🚨
Seems to me that if you're upset that there's not more of a student movement fighting fascism in 2026, the first place to direct your anger is the people who crushed the wave of student organizing that crested in the months immediately preceding the fascists' rise to power.
a man driven to the edge by Joe taking too long over the Tom Cruise anecdote
maybe Peru in the dressing room in 1978
nobody asked about the Strait during the planning stages, then? that thing that's always come up as A Bit of a Problem in the past three decades of musing and fantasising about this war? just... not really considered at all, huh
political malpractice? controlled opposition? hard to tell the difference really
not really a huge surprise that a plagiarist can sound good when they happen to steal something decent
I wonder what percentage of Americans knows that the CIA helped overthrow a democracy in Iran in 1953, installing a brutal dictator who tortured and murdered people. Republicans keep citing the 1979 Islamic Revolution as if that was the start of U.S.-Iran hostilities. Go back 26 years earlier.

Mamdani is operating at Thomas Cromwell levels of getting what you need from the king

I think a lot could be achieved with a well-timed cheerful grin and the phrase "detention centers are for losers"
you could do a good version of this where the Brave Truth Telling Professor's parents both die, and his friend gets permanently disabled, but the guy is the exact same twat he was at the very start of the film
none of this happens without the actual files getting released, so good work everybody who managed that (yes, even the more unhinged members in congress, I do, in fact, gotta hand it to them)
wow, still a week away, just like they were every other time this story appeared in the last thirty years
it's an old fashioned word, 'papist', but many are saying it more and more
mr president the supreme court has betrayed you, they must be destroyed! it is the only way!
*regrettably we are family annihilators
there's really nothing you could have them doing, Sony? no games come to mind at all?
I regularly see people wondering how it's possible that there are so many musicians and writers and film makers and artists from a tiny nation like Iceland.
And the answer is really simple: State funding for art education and artists. I literally get a salary from the government to write books.
oh my god, it's the "we need more female concentration camp guards" tweet in real life
Incredible story that is worth your time to read. It exposes the ways in which the Trump admin is turning the legal immigration system into yet another arm of the mass deportation machine, transforming a benefits agency into a trap for those seeking legal status.
