this is just projection. tarantino knows he's a cringe white dweeb and the three actors he insulted are slightly better than him at being that
Like what did Matthew Lillard ever do to you? Seems like a nice guy, surprisingly faithful Shaggy, how has he wronged the world?

ALT-Text: Schauerliche Hände von Untoten krallen nach einer halbzerfetzten Erdkugel;
Würmer fressen Handstumpen;
überall sind Finger, einfach sehr viele gierige Finger, die grabbelig aalig nach einem dreckigen Klumpen schnappen.
(Unter allen hässlichen Preisen ist das wohl der hässlichste)

assuming there is "reasoning" behind something you don't fully understand, pretending to talk to the higher power you saw in the tea leaves - and then immediately using a sign or portent supposedly created by that entity to attack your enemies - is not a new human problem. tragic, though!
I decided that you lack the spirit to be worth further engagement, so I had the conversation w/ Gemini 3 Pro, instead.

They hide reasoning chains in public share URLs, so attaching a few screenshots to show ya.
Best of luck, Kathryn! <3

The Supreme Court paved the way for a felon to return to the presidency — where, behind the shield of office, that felon has ordered a string of murders.
The boat was split in half. 9 men were dead. 2 more clung to a floating piece of wreckage and tried desperately to flip it over for 41 minutes straight. There was no possible way they were going anywhere.
Then they were killed in cold blood by the U.S. military.

Truly the stupidest cult. Obsessed with a drug that doesn't work against an infectious disease that they don't even think is real.
In lieu of affordable universal health insurance, Texans will now be given better access to de-worming medication.

The fact that a second strike like that in an armed conflict is definitely a war crime should not completely negate the fact that *there is no war* and ALL the strikes are cold-blooded murder. The whole chain of command are murderers.

ok, after thousands of cups of pour-over coffee i can now tell the difference when coffee tastes less good. i just don't know how to consistently either articulate or achieve the differences at all, which is almost as frustrating as ignorance

the catastrophically badly-titled bob dylan album "Planet Waves" almost had an arguably even worse name ("Wedding Song"), but it also almost had the most metal album title in history ("Ceremonies of the Horsemen")

This man may be the most racist president this country has ever had, and twelve presidents owned slaves
Trump: "It’s a hellhole right now. And those Somalians should be out of here. They've destroyed our country. And all they do is complain, complain, complain. You have her. She’s always talking about the Constitution provides me with – go back to your own country and figure out your constitution."
