So I've ranked all 166 Iron Maiden studio-recorded, album released songs, and written blurbs for each of them. I'll post a few each day, until such point as I'm done. Here's the ground rules. 1) I'm including songs released on the remasters + Virus from Best of the Beast

Marge, what had happened when you stood beside him? What was the thing that caused everyone to bail on him? What could it be? What event surrounding the transfer of power in 2020 caused Trump to almost become a political island?
Marjorie Taylor Greene: "I stood with President Trump when virtually no one else did…His remarks have been hurtful…The most hurtful thing he said, which is absolutely untrue, is he called me 'a traitor.' That is so extremely wrong…It all comes down to the Epstein files."

If the upcoming JJ Abrams movie "Ghostwriter" is an adaptation of the kids' series from the 90s I believe we will finally have enough evidence to have him drawn and quartered for crimes against nostalgia

2024 had less accidents than 2020, during the fucking pandemic. Doug Ford is such a buffoon
I've filtered Ottawa's traffic collision data to show only collisions with injuries for each year, and then added the speed camera locations present in those years.

It looks like speed cameras have made the roads much safer.

Go back and look at the campaign. They kept focusing on two issues: the impact of Trump's tariffs, and the possibility of fascism. It was Trump who beat them about the head and ass with "identity politics", but they didn't respond!
This is a straightforward Republican attack line, what the fuck is he doing

Jeffrey Epstein justified his evil actions with "science"

Evolutionary biologists whispering in his ear about how men and women are fundamentally different, and it's "natural" to desire younger women

Our field has a duty to explain why this is wrong both scientifically and ethically

the absolute worst feature on discord now is allowing people to change their name fonts. humans are fucking terrible at picking fonts. they pick shit nobody can read. they pick comic sans. they bold things that don't need to be bolded. this we did not need, discord!

News: After an MP quit saying your leadership style is a problem, after you got screamed at for whining about the RCMP, after your caucus treated D'Entremont openly like a traitor, are you considering to change your leadership style?

Jack Whyte's The Skystone. It really opened my mind as to what fiction could be, even if it's a little pedestrian to look back on it. I had a few nice interactions with Jack before he passed as well. Kind writing advice.
performative reading, lack of reading skills, nobody's reading anymore -- NO!

tell me about a book that changed you

for me? the *extremely* ahistorical novel, THE AGONY AND THE ECSTASY which I read at 13 and was like, "Oh, art can be *everything* to a maker, for good and bad"
