Just saw an amazing (in the sense of being well-produced and not-irritating) ad for an electric-car expo event. On reflection, it helped that no Teslas were pictured except a kid in a tiny cardboard Cybertruck.
Important context: they’re all Catholics and they were tricked into this by a Korean studio, had no idea it would be acquired to attack trans kids and Netflix.
Please God, grant that all conservative parents force bootleg Veggie Tales on their kids, that the children may grow into militant leftists who do not speak to their parents.
Still having fun imagining the heads of the critters who’d have Punisher-type skulls. Probably something like a diplodocus. I understand these dorks think it looks like Immortan Joe, but it looks like a fucked-up duck to me.
In case anyone’s missing context, Swift is referencing a Candace Owens quote; “girlboss… too close to the sun” is something she said. Guess they’re also referencing Sophia Amoruso (“girlboss”) and Ovid.
Prince rejected a song from Pharrell, but met him and inspired the guy to get a legal degree. Now Pharrell’s a legal crusader for artists’ rights. Prince’s personal legacy is very much alive, even if these kids don’t know it.
Hurting animals is Big Psycho, but huge imagination fail not to train dogs to compete at something else. Imagine an underground venue decorated by Guy Richie, you say the pass-phrase through a slit in an armored door and enter onto a circular caged balcony looking down onto a match of DOG LASER TAG.
(Folks who wanna restore the Hawaiian monarchy only want a Head of State like the UK, not a Head of Government like the US or Morocco. Similarly, the Dalai Lama says he’d refuse to continue theocratic government if Tibet got independence.)
Solidarity indeed. Especially big of Hawaii, who deserve and largely desire to be a separate constitutional monarchy (Kamehameha’s). We took their sovereignty and foisted this authoritarian mess on them, but they know what boat they’re in now, and are excellent team rowers.
Random gripe: as a tall person, friends are always forcing me into the passenger seats of taxis, burdening me with excessive sympathy when I have to take a back seat. I have knees, people! The legs fold! Almost all seats are comfortable for almost all people. Save it for Shaquille.
Not on board for “controls everything”, even if several members of the Knesset wish that were true. Lots of assholes past and present trying to control everything, all destined to failure.
I watched this clip before Bouie’s post, and my first reaction was “oh, this is a female incel.” It’s perfectly fine to make fun of the appearance of people whose appearance is their personality.
I will never click a link to an article with “slamming” or “slammed” in the headline. I do support bone-sawing ‘journalists’ who use that word for criticism.
