what is weird and alarming is that Peterson's daughter seems to believe that he is assailed by demons and that is what is causing his illness.

So, not content with John Allen Chau forcing his obnoxious, law-breaking and likely disease-ridden self into the midst of the North Sentinelese and getting himself killed, now there is a movie making a saint of this man?

Colonizers gonna colonize, I suppose.
The poster for the movie Last Days showing the actor playing John Allen Chau looking beatifically up into the light while green ocean water swirls around him. The general effect is one of him as a saint. To the right of the poster, a North Sentinelese man rows himself in a boat. The text reads Based on a True Story, Last Days,

I'd call it karma for the UofT students who experienced institutional violence due to his supporters, as I personally advocated on behalf of a trans student who dropped out after being doxed by his goons on that campus, which resulted in trauma impacts that required accommodations upon his return! 🔥

Who downloads music anymore. Does Kristi Noem still have an iPod?
Part of a tweet from Benny Johnson quoting Noem today. 

"Zach, I didn't listen to your music. I'm happy about that today. Today, that makes me very happy that I never once gave you a single penny to enrich your lifestyle. I am going to go out and probably download some Jason Aldean, John Rich, Kid Rock, and Jon Pardi songs.”

@Sec_Noem says she will be boycotting Zach Bryan.

I remember he contracted COVID at some point--it can and does cause respiratory complications. And a bad diet makes it worse, I would imagine

this is what happens when school maps in the 90s have the united states in the center
conor smith: Joined Sep '23
Gavin has shown himself unfit to be President. This is why we should let our current President take a third term, despite his age. Who cares what the constitution says.

nyc nafo fella: How has he shown himself to be unfit?

conor smith: By failing to return €3,300 paid to him in error by a former tenant, going as far as to ignore solicitor's letters

nyc nafo fella: 3,300 Euros? What the fuck are you talking about?

banjo gall: Think. nyc nafo fella: Well normally since Gavin Newsom is in America he would be paid in dollars, not Euros. Maybe you should take your suggestion? You filthy motherfucking Russian troll.

banjo gal: You seem upset. Who's Gavin Newsom? We're discussing Jim Gavin.

nyc nafo fella: Looks like this fight against international Putin loving fascists is going international. And who the fuck is Jim Gavin?

banjo gal: Jim Gavin was a nominee in the Irish presidential race, until he pulled out at the weekend due to a scandal whereby he owed a former tenant
€3,300.
Not sure what Putin and fascists have to do with this. nyc nafo fella: When your other nation is Russia or Serbia that is very true, fuck you and your nation.

banjo gal: But it's not. It's Ireland.
Thanks though.

nyc nafo fella: Why are dumb fuck anglos showing up on my timeline?

There’s a very real possibility that the US economy hits stagflation, the AI bubble pops, and there’s a substantial trade war impacting services (the US major export) all at the same time, which is what I’d call, “the omnishamblesmegafuck.”

At some point one of the Gestapo is going to pull the trigger in a crowd and America will be forced into a place it may not be able to ever fully recover from.

The fascists are going to end up killing a lot of people before this is all said and done.

Often, if I was struggling to write, I pictured Addie and her two sisters, and wrote the story directly to them
Young white woman, Addie Lovell, in a blue and white striped Oxford, indoors in a retail setting, holds up a copy of my book, what ever happened to Eddy Crane, a memoir and a murder investigation, by kate crane. She looks proud.

Glad to see we’re united against the “compact.” For one, I love USC’s cosmopolitanism. I’m proud to have directed dissertations by students from Africa, Asia, Europe, Latin America and the U.S., and every term I love having awesome students from China, India, and many other places. Fight on!

She was forceful and drew her boundaries?
Is that what you call a train wreck?
The reporter is being weirdly aggressive and pretending to misunderstand Porter's answers, dont know why.

Someone who used to work with Katie Porter sent me this clip from a train wreck interview with her and said “now imagine what she’s like when there aren’t cameras around.”
