Whenever James shows up on my feed I know I've stayed up way too late 🤣
How refreshing to hear the head of the Met on LBC dropping truth bombs galore on all the bots, Faragists & online racists dedicated to lying about London.

Liam is shipping a murder poet.
My most malicious trait is that I want Evil Taylor to get the boy in You Belong With Me rather than Good Girl Taylor. It just seems to me likely that Evil Taylor has a more interesting story to her, there's more going on there.

Don't have to pay rent if a billionare buys everyone a home!
(That being said if anyone on here is actually a historically-minded bajillionaire and wants to acquire the pod/pay me money/make the whole thing free, I'd love that! I want history to be accessible and I also the full TGS team to be compensated for our time because we have to pay rent!)

Also, nothing said here about the impeachment process is true, there's no actual legal requirement to review thousands of documents etc., they just decided to do that!
The final paragraph of this statement is FASCINATING.

Dem leadership is clearly trying to imply, in pretty strong terms, that they'll launch an aggressive, vigorous, public impeachment effort if they take back control of the House. But without actually, you know, saying that.

Drip. Drip. Drip.
Significant statement from Jeffries and House Democratic leaders saying they will vote “present” on the motion to table Al Green’s resolution to impeach President Trump. They say they’re “laser-focused on fighting to lower the high cost of living” plus on health care and corruption.

To quote my own (B-) paper "[the French] could have stopped the attack through the Ardennes forest before it was started, before the Germans had the advantage that they would gain with their speedy attacks. The world's biggest traffic jam [this is a quote IIRC that I did not properly cite]...

*SCREAMING*
Criticizing the French in 1940 for not modernizing and not mentioning their use (or more accurately, lack thereof) of radios is such an enormous tell that they don't know what they're talking about. Also ya know, everything else they say here.
That’s not what happened in 1940 lol, the French army did not sit behind the maginot line

We don’t need aircraft carriers, okay than how the fuck do you get AirPower across the Pacific Ocean?

It greatly distresses me that Yeats and Keats are pronounced differently
this isn't especially unusual; I love James Brown's music and he was a terrible person; I love Yeats's poetry and he was a terrible person.

-Saga
-PARTS (I repeat PARTS) of Sandman
-BONE
-The Third Person (I CANNOT recommend this enough)
-POSSIBLY Ex Machina (have not read far enough to conclude but it's Brian K. Vaughan soooo...)
-When the Wind Blows
Saga is better than Moby Dick
In a post where it's asked which graphic novels stand toe-to-toe with the literary greats, we're getting answers like:

Bone
Corto Maltese
Sin City
Hellboy
Blacksad
Dark Knight Returns
Whiteout
Uzumaki
Saga

I mean, Bone is fantastic, but it's no East Of Eden, no Moby-Dick, no House On Mango Street

This, but instead of "personal responsibility" it's "spend money on public health measures that ensure fewer teen moms and children born into poverty"
If we ever want to return to a contributory society with civic pride, the first step is to reinstil personal responsibility as a social expectation. This is a step in the opposite direction, another personal problem the state will solve for you, free of charge or shame.

And he was NOT assimilated!
Right but that character was not Jewish! He was Irish!
December 4, 2025 at 3:29 PM
The Irish vampire is MUCH older than anything related to American assimilation though, he just hates the Brits (and by extension that overarching colonial group)
I think that's a great point. I'm just not sure it jibes with all the stuff about juju and the Irish being turned against the other Other by virtue of being assimilated first etc etc.

Question is whether vampirism is of European origins or whether vampirism existed pre-colonialism (I know the vampire hunters were indigenous but I don't remember if it was explicit that they had hunted vampires BEFORE contact)?
Maybe I’m stupid but my immediate interpretation in the theater was that vampirism was a metaphor for American-ness.

You have to lose your culture and community to become part of that group. Some do it willingly, others not so much, but it’s inevitable either way.

It's not a bagel place if they make a sandwich wherein the ingredients be'twixt the bagel halves are taller in height than the height of half a bagel, that's just a sandwich.

Does make me wonder if Slotkin, Kelly, and the rest of Congress were hearing stuff prompting the video they made about not following illegal orders
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.
