a lot of people don't realize that Christmas carols and traditions are actually folk memories of suppressed pre-Christian events, namely the end of the Third Age and the Fall of Sauron.

"Die Hard is a Christmas movie" Die Hard is a nostalgic allegory in which the mythical values of the American frontier triumph over technofuturist global capitalism. Grow up

Since becoming a parent I have not, in fact, understood the parents who say “if you were a parent you’d understand” about vaccine hesitancy. Being in charge of this fragile little miracle has me saying things like “give her all the vaccines. Turn this baby into a pincushion” to doctors

AR-PHARAZÔN THE GOLDEN: What you have to remember also is he appeared in fair form.
CHOTINER: The next time the invasion of Valinor and the destruction of Númenor come up, I'll keep in mind that Sauron was handsome when it happened.
AR-PHARAZÔN: He was. Not that that excuses it.
CHOTINER: Right.

Agrippa's Three Books Of Occult Philosophy. and Dinotopia.
alright let’s get something more pleasant going. what two books would you leave out on your coffee table so a reporter can mention you have them. doesn’t matter if you’ve read them. for me it’s Pale Fire (which I did read) and Ulysses (got like 15% of the way in)

Meanwhile, here's an example of the horrendous things found in Hillary Clinton's emails—the only story worth covering for any serious news outlet in 2016, apparently.
This email is also regarding a child who suffered abuse from a grown man.

ending this with "it should stop" is *chef's kiss*
This has nothing to do with crime. This is an attempt to crush political dissent.
Never before, in our entire 250 year history, has the military or immigration agents been used like this. It's dystopian, illegal, and it should stop.
