I’m going to tell any MAGA people I encounter that I was going to vote for Trump in 2028 but then he got vaccinated

I wonder if Doug Wilson will attempt to convert the Qatari pilots that come to Idaho?

Either that or Tolkien would have used it to write the Silmarillion in Quenya in an afternoon and been converted, no middle ground

Growing up in the Air Force I just have to say that the Qatari training facility is not that big a deal. We have similar facilities for dozens of nations around the country. The main thing that is confusing is putting it in Idaho which doesn't prepare them weather wise for flying in the Gulf region.

I'm watching the new season of Critical Role and Brennan is a genius, funeral is my new favorite starting location for a campaign now. It brings a wide variety of people together, emotions are raw and on edge. Plus it makes the PCs think about what they still want to do with the life they have left.

All I'm thinking is they don't have an altar

I dig into how Greenlee didn’t compromise his message and what that cost him vs Coogler having to compromise some of his vision to get Black Panther made. I want to go back now though and dig into Andor, another piece of media inspired by Algiers, & examine why Disney is supporting these messages

Great episode, loved the film recommendations. I wrote my undergrad thesis on how Coogler’s Killmonger is an homage to The Spook Who Sat By The Door and there are a lot of parallels between Coogler and Sam Greenlee.

Trump is obsessed with getting into Heaven unlike the rest of his administration who with their words & actions make it clear they do not fear judgement.

If conservatives actually wanted to reshape college education they would do some Federalist Society project but for adjunct professors at community colleges but they don’t actually want to reform college education overall they just want their elite university peers to like them

Those are the ones the conservative elites care about because those are the ones they went to, this part of our politics is essentially alumni politics

This was one of my favorite games and honestly most of the mechanics were not great but the story & characters made up for it. And I really liked how you’d be in one city for several missions and the order you did them in changed things too.

Well we know Trump is very good at drawing things

This is just like Peter Thiel naming his surveillance company after the artifact in LOTR that the good guys use to fight the bad guys but by using it become paranoid and end up destroying themselves and nearly ending the world.

Trump is so far gone that he can't even remember what Antifa is at the Antifa Roundtable.

It's also amazing that Mike Johnson supposedly isn't paying attention to a single thing Trump says but has opinions about the Super Bowl Halftime Show.

I mean I've never seen the MAGA movement as especially Christian. Even the Catholics in the movement hate the Pope. They view themselves as MAGA & Americans first and Christians a distant third.

The app uses data from the National Weather Service & personal open source weather station. So it is using government and private information for free to make a profit. And has repurposed a Marxist group's name for capitalism. The dominant ideology will repurpose anything for it's own ends. 2/2
