the world never screeches to a halt for anything, it never has, this is both tragic and hopeful, you still have to get up and put on your pants and go live everyday, and that’s been the case since your pants were handmade from deerskin

Man the flop sweat on this "joke." There less than 6 months into this marketing campaign and the only thing left they could do to get noticed was pretend they were giving up the bit.
Robert E. Lee got his ass beat at Gettysburg by a professor of rhetoric and oratory from Bowdoin College and generations of reactionary fantasists have died mad about it.
It’s not the biggest problem but one real reason why no left-liberal popular front has emerged in America is because of a loud and highly visible cohort of not-that-young-anymore leftist edgelords who refuse to be in coalition with their moms.
I think this was also the reason the Starfleet Academy concept kicked around for decades without getting off the ground before. It doesn't take long to realize school kids wouldn't have serious responsibilities and if the don't what are the stakes that make it worth watching?
Because we are managing multiple estates/wills now, and because Diya and I live outside the US, the logistical and legal hurdles are immense. We have started a gofundme to help cover the fees, funeral, and preservation of our family home. Any help appreciated, please: gofund.me/e7ce73e63
My brother Nabil has died. As you know, we lost our dad in 2013, brother Qayyum in 2020, and mom just last year. Losing Nabil under suspicious circumstances is a nightmare. An investigation is ongoing. We will share burial service details asap as the official process allows us to move forward.
If you want better things, elect Democrats, keep electing Democrats, elect better Democrats, & reward them when they come through.
It's hard to have to do this but I don't have a choice. I know times are tough for everyone but if you can spare anything, please donate to my gofundme so I can setup 10,000 @blankcheck.bsky.social Patreon accounts and force them to cover the Airport film series on the premium feed.
Shut down the Ben Franklin bridge until we can figure out what the hell is going on.
Maybe to alert us all to the Pennsylvanian menace we've ignored for too long.
The number of people making a living as "health experts," who obfuscate this point is truly baffling to me. The only reason to use these vague terms rather than "eat less meat/sugar/etc." is to avoid offending political interests that are way more fucking powerful than the makers of Red Dye No. 5.
A lot of people epically failed to accept the basic reality that the 2024 election was an election with huge moral stakes and a clear right and wrong answer (for a wide range of reasons). They now are twisting themselves into knots to protect themselves from accepting that moral failing.
Joey Patroni chowing a cigar like he chows down on the ladies.
Joey Patroni will return in Avengers: Doomsday.
A flight attendant played by Sylvia fucking Kristel hands coffee to a pilot played by legendary character actor George Kennedy in a production still from Airport '79.
The effects work that goes into convincing you that there's a real airplane cockpit that can fit this buyer Irish head should make James Cameron weep in shame.
Legendary actor George Kennedy absolutely fuck slaying lewks on the red carpet.
Please give and help the family of a this great actor taken too soon at the age of...91! Jesus. This man was alive when Obama was president????!!!!!

and i think the example of washington — whose peer, in this regard, is frederick douglass — is a reminder that artifice and performance are important parts of democratic society, and that the contempt for virtue signaling is corrosive. virtue is meant to be signaled!
Claire Lehmann: Who would be a good person to write an essay about the Epstein story being a moral panic?
Charles Manson.
If many people hold a left-wing opinion they are a mob and should be ignored; if few people hold a left wing opinion they are fringe and should be ignored. The substance or correctness of the opinion is irrelevant. This is the reactionary centrist credo bsky.app/profile/eliv...
Sure there are some trillion dollar companies but what about this one fly by night that moved (fled) to a jurisdiction known for lax laws on financial products.
A section from an LA Times article premised in the notion tech companies are leaving California. "California, home to companies such as Google, Apple and Meta, is known for being a major hub for the technology industry. California cryptocurrency startup BitGo recently said that it was moving to South Dakota."
One of these things is not like the others.
TMNT logo that says, not another standup meeting.
8 hours of daily syncs to make sure I'm up to date with all the work everyone else is getting done
I’m watching friends succumb to doom watching what’s happening in Minnesota and I want to shake them and scream “Can’t you see the people organizing? Can’t you see them winning?”. Doom is a warm blanket of helplessness that keeps you from the fight.
Do we think the F.B.I. was searching for the personal liberties or the free markets?
Some mysteries can only be solved by a huge Irish head.
The cover of Murder On Location, a paperback mystery novel written by and starring noted gigantic character actor, George Kennedy. Cover features the actual proportions of Kennedy's head in relation to others.
When your wife waits 2 weeks to annihilate you with the perfect Xmas gift.
Very much this. Anyone who thinks McDonalds was using beef tallow because it was better for you rather than the cheapest of the artery sludges available at the time, well...
yes! a good number of MAHA-approved products are just repurposed waste from beef production
I need to place a Polymarket bet on when JD Vance gets excommunicated.
