The next step for Trump is to send a US citizen convicted of something like child murder and rape to CECOT in El Salvador. It'll set the precedent to send citizens there while neutralizing outrage over it because of the heinous nature of their crimes. Then it'll any felony and then protestors.

Donold is blaming a plane crash that killed 67 people on β€œDEI” with zero evidence.

He is attempting to use racism to deflect from the fact it is HIS fault. He had just removed 100 FAA senior officials.

It’s been 11 days and there are 67 bodies in the Potomac in Washington DC because of him.

A bird's-eye view of a former Auschwitz II-Birkenau camp showing a wide dirt pathway flanked by parallel rows of barbed-wire fences. Groups of visitors walk along the path, surrounded by the remnants of brick structures and barracks, now reduced to foundations. Green grass contrasts with the somber history of the site, as the path leads toward a guard tower in the distance.

Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers.

This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.

Auschwitz took time.

I destroyed our babygate today with my body. The babygate is already back in one piece and operational; my body, less so.

I'm so happy that you are here and on YouTube. It brings joy to my day every time I see one of your videos.

I disagreed with you until you mentioned the random cutaway to one-off characters in The Fifth Element, and I realized you are 100% correct.

After only 102 years of the bill being introduced, it's now part of the United States Constitution that you can't be discriminated against based on sex!

Yeah, I don't see what the big deal is, either.

I just spent the most money I have ever spent on a movie.

I grew up with the theatrical cut of Amadeus. I adore it. I moved out nearly twenty years ago and since that time, I've had only the director's cut available to me. I HATE that version.

Now, after 20 years, it's mine once again. No regrets.

David Lynch. I watched his entire filmography last year. Learned about him. Watched documentaries about him. Read his writing. Watched an unhealthy number of his weather report videos. He changed my life and now he's gone.

I feel... cracked somehow.

The entity known as David Lynch, the mad genius, has accomplished the inevitable and merged with the infinite. His light shines on through the each of us. Stay wild at heart, my friends.

I had a delightful time watching 'Three Thousand Years of Longing' (2022 dir. George Miller.) It's a lovely film. The only downside I can think of is simply that there is not more of it. A thoughtful and entertaining piece on the nature of desire.

Went to Urgent Care about a cough, and they found this sick-ass nodule in my lungs. I'm excited about getting a CAT scan. It's been too long.

After leaving Facebook, I feel I no longer know how or what to post. Prepare for hundreds upon hundreds of photos of my belly button.
