The current Russian regime--& much of E European instability--arises out of the gangster state that filled the vacuum left when the wall fell (and, let's be honest, the West didn't do enough).
Trump is effectively BEGGING for that state in the W Hemisphere, even while much migrations stems from it

Hey idiot, the UN changed it's parameters of "genocide" specifically to label Israeli response to terrorist attacks as such. There was no genocide in number, action, or intent. You're just a propagandized Jew hater. The Jew hate has to be there in you first in order for it to work.

Texas is looking like Maine.
“Progressives” (aka DSA left-wing) are pushing out women. In TX, a truly qualified, charismatic Black woman.
They show you over and over which side they’re on. It isn’t the side that represents true Democratic values.

Approximately 80% of Parkinson’s research dollars in the last two decades have flowed toward genetics. Despite the avalanche of funding, the latest research suggests that maybe only a quarter of Parkinson’s cases can be fully explained by genetics.

People keep wondering why they're going after Venezuela. It's because they want to do regime change and control its oil, then use a big tract of land there to keep a tax free "network state" that looks like Dubai but operates like Rhodesia. They are saying this out loud! Believe them!

I suspect some of my students used chatGPT to write a homework assignment picking their favorite song.
CRYING at how ChatGPT has interpreted the prompt for one of my finals. It was super low stakes, write about your feelings for 30min, don’t stop writing. But SOMEHOW I have MANY students whose roommates were SECRETLY WARLOCK CULT LEADERS & every one ends with, “I promise this really happened” ☠️

Purity tests plus "she has to earn my vote" plus the incessant acceptance of lies about her promoting genocide in Gaza led us to the brink of annihilation, and they knew it would be bad but sided with whatever excuse they could muster to sit out the election and watch the devastation commence.

You treat your vote like buying a product and like you're a consumer who must hear just the right words in a commercial to make you want to help others instead of hurting others. That's a YOU failure.

Alexander Courage BOTD wrote the theme, but Sol Kaplan created this version that would become the most recognizable "flyby" music for the USS Enterprise.
When you hear the whirling piccolos and tonal woodwind clusters, then the French horn melody, you immediately see it in your mind:

When Jerry Goldsmith turned down the offer to write the music for the "Star Trek" TV pilot in 1964, he recommended his friend and colleague Alexander Courage, BOTD in 1919 (d. 2008)
Courage would go on to write one of the most iconic themes in TV and film history.
