One of the few public temple-saunas of Karazad to survive the Domekan invasion. Built by the Demiurge to cleanse and fortify the subjects of his city, perhaps as an apology for the many troubled spirits that his ill works unleashed upon them…

Just because a lot of people are cruel, bigoted, and brainwashed doesn’t mean we have to find a “middle ground” with them or a “compromise” that satisfies some of their racist delusions. We just don’t.

Coprolites aren't my favourite type of fossil, but they're a solid #2.

It’s ironic that they’re like “if we do ethnic cleansing we’ll have a high trust neighborly society” and then Minneapolis is literally doing high trust neighborly society and they’re like nooooo
Many Americans are terrible neighbors to each other, and that is why MN is striking everyone as extraordinary activism... when they are telling us that it is not. They're good neighbors!

It's no wonder that "being a shitty neighbor" is the hallmark of our domestic politics and our foreign policy.

Whatever did happen to David Cameron’s “70,000 moderate rebels”, by the way? I’m assuming they’re these Al Qaeda guys, and I’m also assuming they got a lot of their guns from us. Anyway, they’ve been fighting Kurdish forces to force them out.
BREAKING: The Syrian gov't has announced a ceasefire has been agreed with the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces that will involve the withdrawal of the latter’s forces from areas west of the Euphrates River, according to Syrian state media aje.news/xvr9dp

Disinformation and gullible people have always been a thing, and there are more important expressions of the problem right now by far, but it’s starting to get alarming how often I hear from acquaintances about “all those people who don’t believe in dinosaurs” when I share my profession.

The fact that Gavin Newsom is even talking to the likes of Shapiro is a sign that he’s a non-starter. I’ve never forgotten how Shapiro said that Trayvon Martin deserved to die. Not fucking ever.
Ben Shapiro: "Israel did not commit a genocide in Gaza"
Gavin Newsom: "I agree with you."

I’m no Kemi fan but she did exactly the right thing getting rid of Jenrick. Starmer should do the same to Streeting. Corbyn didn’t get rid of him - now look!!
