You can tell that LotR was written by an academic because Gandalf disappears for like 20 years doing research to answer a single question.

Was at a Christmas party with a load of clergy last night and as some people were leaving they found a person collapsed on the street outside so the Verger took over and called an ambulance and sent all the clergy away because "if they wake up surrounded by priests that'll just make things worse"

As new Epstein files are released, keep in mind that in his first term, Trump ate, flushed, and stole documents, and his Chief of Staff burned them in the White House fireplace.

It’s not Russians who are the enemy. I’m sure they are nice people.

However Putin has murdered many people, including his own countrymen, first as a KGB head and now as their leader.

He is a war criminal. There’s nothing that makes him “a nice guy.”

We haven't invaded Venezuela yet, which means Trump's name has been successfully deleted from the Epstein files so they can be released tomorrow. Remember, the FBI spent over a million dollars in agent overtime for the redaction effort...don't assume that was to protect the victims.

Man answering his phone on the train: Yes? Correct, I’m not at work (pause) I’m not going to answer that because I am not at work today. No, you’re going to have to ask someone who is. Goodbye.

Because it’s not getting reported on enough:

Muslim fruit shop owner Ahmed al Ahmed, father of two, was the hero who bravely tackled one of the Bondi Beach shooters and took away his gun.

He saved lives during a major terror attack. Say his name, and honor the lives of the victims of the shooters

“Have you brought the list?”
“I have, O Great One.”
“Has it been checked twice?”
“Of course, sir”
“Excellent.”
“Do you require anything further?”
“Bring me an elf, I’m famished.”

Of all the people who were murdered in order to protect powerful people, Epstein was one of the most murdered.

The biggest collection of historic Russian armour outside of Russia is in Finnish museums and store rooms.

Something I've seen their senior military leadership occasionally remind their Russian equivalents of.

Happy Independence Day to all Finns!
Woo happy 108th Independence Day to us 🇫🇮🍾

How about we worry less, as a society, about whether individuals might be cheating to get a disability accommodation or some help buying food, and more about whether extremely wealthy people and corporations are paying their fair share of taxes?
