The best way to understand the second half of the Peloponnesian War is as a proxy struggle between different factions within the Persian Empire, not an Athenian-Spartan war for hegemony in the Greek world

A post on threads from user stephens_bens. It reads 'I'll always remember an interview with Steve Buscemi on Bulleye, Jesse Thorn asked him "As an actor with many decades of varied and outstanding roles across your career, does it ever bother you that one of the things you will most be remembered for is a 3-second gif in which you're wearing a backwards baseball cap and carrying a skateboard?"
And without missing a beat, Buscemi replied "I'm carrying *two* skateboards."
And you know what? He is.'
Below that is a screen cap of Buscemi's famous "fellow kids" moment.
I never noticed this either.

Representing a country in sport is not the same thing as pledging loyalty to a fascist regime.

I, obviously, was wrong in my Kid Rock episode when I said his MAGA stance had made him a pariah in mainstream music circles, but Trump's re-election getting him a welcome back for a single year just to get violently cast out again is honestly even funnier

He hates immigrants.
He hates the children of immigrants.
He hates veterans, especially ones that need medical help
He hates Democrats
He's said all this out loud, many times, verbaitum.
But he loves little girls.

One of the reasons I'm running for Congress after 62 years of never contemplating seeking public office is that I don't think the country can survive three more years unless Trump is removed from office.
Now I don't know if it can survive three months.
