George’s vision of his wife without him is essential to the film, but critics continue to miss its true—and profound—meaning.

Remember when Jeffrey Epstein and Donald Trump’s lawyer, Alan Dershowitz, wrote an op-ed trying to justify having sex with kids?
Seems relevant now.

Just a reminder that Trump has, on camera, bragged about walking in on Miss Teen USA contestants changing and explained his 17-year-old daughter asked him not to “date” girls younger than her.
I’m not sure what’s true in the Epstein Files, but when you recall those facts it all seems plausible

Guards began beating him. Beat him until he bled. Knocked his face into the wall, broke all his teeth. No access to outdoors, no contact with relatives.
Now describing US knowledge of CECOT's torture practices, followed by footage of Trump praising those practices.

First question on KGB cognitive test is also a picture of lion, giraffe, fish & hippopotamus. They beat the shit out of you until you say the giraffe is the hippo.

“Climate action” is just another way to say “we want our beautiful complex planet to continue to be a good place to live, and to continue to be both beautiful and complex”. So much climate damage comes from assuming that Earth is simple, that it is easy to control and that it will bend to our will.

I second that! I think about this book ALL THE TIME! When I went digital I kept this book and @astrokatie.com 's "End of Everything." Both are very thought-provoking and have a permanent place in my head now.
This book was SO good, folks. Not just "could there be life elsewhere," but "would we even know it if we found it?" So many layers and such a fun read that really stretched my imagination.
You know, what? Sure! Here's a last-minute gift idea for the science- or sci fi–lover in your life. (It's my book, I wrote it) bookshop.org/p/books/the-...

I double-checked because I literally could not believe this was true, and he actually did say this. I wish I lived in the type of country where the press covered the current President's delusional fantasies with as much zeal as they covered the former President's age.

It would be nice if their fellow journalists would stand up for the female reporters Trump routinely bullies.
