Nazi punks fuck off
I shall translate.

"What're you smiling for?" = "I'm sad and can't elicit sympathy from other humans, but am so desperate for any human connection—even negative—that I'm willing to shit on complete strangers for the briefest second of not feeling alone."

Suggested response: "Fuck off."

And that lie is coming, since Admiral Alvin Holsey resigned in protest when these war crimes began, you just know the putin-sucking republican traitors will blame the one black man in sight.

It'll be interesting if congress subpoenas Holsey. Oh my, what will he have to say?

TWP should change its subtitle to "Heart of Darkness."

Intellectual dishonesty conveyed in the lede: it wouldn't matter if it took most people 1 second to earn the money for a meal, if it takes them 4 years of work to afford a month's rent. The economy isn't 1 thing; claiming otherwise is a lie.

Got one on Monday from T-dot, T-bot? Something like that. A quick web search usually turns up the truth, but the feel of these scams is always there.

That's weird. I wonder what that's about.

No, not good. Combined with rising sea levels, which will hit particularly hard along Europe's northern coast, and saltwater infiltration will further erode the watershed beyond lands primarily lost to sea-level rise (i.e. farmlands). Famine in Europe is not just a matter of fiction.

Vance is a poorly made ventriloquist's dummy, with Thiel's hand stuck up his ass.

Hegseth is a cowardly, putin-sucking, republican traitor: his legally indefensible claim regarding illegal orders (ignoring the obligation of all service members to disobey them), combined with his ludicrous threat of a court marshal, is just another badge of honor proudly worn by Mark Kelly.

That's amazing! Mine says, "Hell on Earth." Oh, wait, I don't have X.

Nemesis is one of those completely-around-the-dial movies, for me. I think it's the manpack .50 that epitomizes the "fuck it, let's go graphic novel style action" approach to these movies.

One of my fav movies. The transition in tone from horror-sci-fi to wacky comedy sci-fi, end of act 2, is done better in this movie than in any other movie that's attempted it or did so accidentally. Great cast, too!

The commentary for Evil Dead 2's DVD—with Campbell, Raimi, Spiegel, and Nicotero—remains the greatest DVD commentary ever recorded, far surpassing the movie's actual dialogue. Seriously, I haven't watched the movie without the commentary in years. (Oh and nice flask, too!)

Yeah, it's gotten out of hand this year. They're using AI to automate their attacks, too, which is making it a hundred times worse.

And we have a bingo. I'd like it more if I were better at it, though!

(And to any scammers who might see this comment, NO, this is not an invitation to bore me with your schemes. Go play with your AI slop machines.)

Ha! Or just makes you wish it was shorter.

If the adults from a Peanuts special were the magat, anti-society types, though, Charlie Brown and the other kids would all die from measles or get disappeared to El Salvador. ☹️

Hmm . . .

A proper lobster roll, dripping with butter.

Bánh mì, done right, with enough chili sauce to soak the bread.

Roast beef style po' boy, where the meat is damn near gravy, dressed with Creole mustard.

Yup, always dig the ones that are wet to drenched.

A digital "slop and frisk," if you will.

(No, that's okay, I'll show myself out.)
