“I thought there would be resistance…”

“You can take my bread and circuses when you pry them from my cold dead fingers.” - Most people today

Yep, but not just “look over here.” He wants them to move their resources and position their defenses to respond from an attack in those areas. That will potentially leave them out of position to respond quickly to whatever he actually does.

They are too big to fail because the politicians that are suckling at their teats say they are. If those companies go under, the bribes, er donations dry up. They won’t let that happen. Millions, if not billions, of dollars are being funneled into the policical machinery to make sure that when the bubble pops, the people responsible will not pay any real price for it. It’ll be the workers and the tax payers who will have to clean up the mess while the ones who created it will sail off into the Caribbean on their newest super yacht.

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. Please provide evidence of this uptick in violent leftist extremism.

True, but only if you exclude Russia. About 3.9 million square kilometers of Russia lies on the European continent. Columbia is 1.1 million km². The next largest country in Europe is Ukraine at .6 million km² then France at .5 million km². Columbia is by no means a tiny country. According to this Wikipedia page, it ranks 25th largest in the world in terms of surface area.

“There are other instances where officers will approach someone who’s at a urinal, the officer will touch himself or will just peer at the person, and if the person — who is there just trying to pee — responds in any way, that person is then arrested or at least charged with lewdness,” Trujillo said in his video.

This is quite literally committing the crime of public lewdness in order to justify arresting people for it. Every person arrested should tell the judge that they want to press charges against the arresting officer for public lewdness.

10 bucks says Hegseth meant to meet with a couple generals, but because he was drunk he accidentally sent the orders to every general and admiral in the military.

How is injecting a drug a way to subdue a person in custody? That’s fucked up.

Allow me to introduce you to the practice of police restraint by ketamine. No longer will police simply kneel on your neck and suffocate you. Now they will say you are experiencing excited delirium and have a medic take a wild guess at your weight and inject you with ketamine to ‘calm you down.’

Maybe, but most of them crime and sin their way through every day because they think that if they confess their sins every week then God will forgive them and they’ll get their golden ticket to the pearly gates anyway. I doubt much would change.

People should start posting that they know people who were raptured. That was way all the religious zealots will start to think they weren’t good enough and got left behind.

Edit to fix typo.

You ain’t kidding.

“I overindulged. I thank you all for caring, but I’m perfectly fine. I keep telling you all: don’t trust tabloids or AI!” he wrote on X.

I love Zelazny, and while these are not movies, there are adaptations of his books in the works… sort of… maybe.

A Chronicles of Amber series is apparently under development headed up by Stephen Colbert, though I’ve seen no more recent news than this. Also, George R.R. Martin has written about producing a series adaptation of Roadmarks. Again, this is the most recent news I’ve heard about this effort.

Both of these are older articles ('23 and '21 respectively) and I can’t say for sure that the efforts continue, but it does show that people with money, influence, and a love of the material have been trying to make these things happen.

Oz pledged in writing to close out by July 3, 2025 his stake in iHerb, an LLC that sells folinic acid supplements.

Oh look! A pledge from one of the lying liars in our government.

He won’t be impeached. That would piss off too many conservatives. He’ll be removed using the 25th Amendment once they can no longer prop him up and make him seem vaguely coherent.

As Arthur C. Clarke said, “Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.”

I do not believe there is a minimum size for asteroids. They range from a few meters up to Vesta at 530 km or so.

Interesting. Never heard that term before. Thanks.

Ex-urban? Did some cities disappear leaving middle schools still standing?
