Every single congressional Democrat needs to be out there, right now, insisting that Pete Hegseth resign right now and announcing that he will be held accountable for committing war crimes.

If you do not demand accountability here and now, they will only become more emboldened.
Exclusive: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth gave an order to “kill everybody” in the first strike on suspected drug boats in the Caribbean. After two men survived, the mission commander ordered a second strike to comply with Hegseth’s instructions, according to two sources.
Hegseth order on first Caribbean boat strike, officials say: Kill them all
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth issued a verbal order to kill all crew members in the Sept. 2 strike on a suspected drug boat. Navy SEALs fired a second missile.

From Frederick Douglass's 1867 "Composite Nation" speech, a defense of Chinese migration to the United States at a time when anti-Chinese sentiment was intensifying.

I really hope there's a tasting ritual at these sorts of places like a winery
Love a globally-minded ham selection

I love how this and Dorris Ranch are showing that you can combine nature preservation with a historically significant agricultural crop. I hope more filbert partnerships pop up in the McKenzie / Willamette region.

Okay, Strange New Worlds separating the eventual TOS crewmembers onto the Farragut with Kirk in S3E6 is pretty clever.

Was really hoping the Sliver talk meant the plea was for Tom Berenger to be in Knives Out 4
Always a good convo with Mike. Lots of Sliver (1993) content.
I spoke to Rian Johnson about WAKE UP DEAD MAN. He tells the story about how Daniel Craig was almost not Benoit Blanc. How Craig will always play Benoit Blanc in future movies. And he makes a personal plea to an Oscar winning actor to be in Knives Out 4. www.indiewire.com/features/int...

I don't get out to a ton of movies, but someone in the thread mentioned Black Bag so I'll go with that.
Without saying Sinners, name your film of the year.

I read this book Freddie, tell him before it's too late. Lil Newt deserves better!
love that the Falcons website really goes out of its way to emphasize that Lil' Fred, their small mascot, is NOT the son of Freddie Falcon, they just look identical, act the same, and have all the same interests

Haven't watched in a long while, but I secretly love the mess that is Southland Tales. It's a huge swing and miss, but very watchable. We need more of those.

Also Teen Horniness Is Not a Crime ends up in my playlists quite a lot
Something like six of my top ten line deliveries are all from SOUTHLAND TALES (2007), but this is #1

Not to lay my cards on the table but I think this narrow focus in online discourse on who deserves to be rewarded really elides the actual societal value of the education system (teaching members of society important stuff that it's valuable for them to know)

Chicago may experience less tear gas use as Operation Midway Blitz winds down. Cold and wet weather reduce effectiveness, while wind adds unpredictability.
Wind, cold temps can change the impact of tear gas and pepper balls, experts say

Much like real Bushido, poster's bushido is a post facto romanticization of an earlier era of uncontrolled conflict, constructed by the inhabitants of a more centralized system to justify their own pretensions.

Yes, adopt the calendar of a region with no continental climate
After years of debate, MLS will switch to a European-style calendar in 2027.

The move will create ripple effects for teams, transfers, rules, and TV audiences.

So...what now?

For @backheeled.com, I break down the biggest questions facing MLS post-schedule shift ⤵️
The biggest questions about MLS’s now-approved calendar change: Transfers, roster rules & TV viewership
Just what kind of impact will switching to a fall-to-spring calendar have? And what other changes will accompany it?

it’s good this happened and it’s another reason the death penalty should not exist. this never should’ve had to come down to a last minute decision by a governor. we suck at the death penalty, get rid of it
