“Supreme Court allows use of Zyklon B in detention centers.” Is a headline I’m waiting for. This fucking administration. May they all get painful rectal cancer.

In the same way Trump's insistence on making the Bunker-Ballroom a fire trap (with no ladies rooms) gives us an excuse to tear it down and rebuild it, Kash's refusal to protect the FBI from serious compromise gives us an excuse to just replace all the current people with the people he fired.

So, I've built enough tools now to make a Nuke template, apply it to all the relevant angles, distribute the template and make shot replication a 10 minute thing. Mostly only because Neat denoise will not run headless on my machine for some reason.

If you participate in a gang rape, things like... chemical castration, and prison for life should be on the table. Not a fucking essay.

Feminism doesn't hate men. It hates abusers, sexists, misogynists, rapists, pedophiles and deadbeats. 

And good men aren't bothered by that because they hate them too.

“What is a woman?” Let me explain. You know how you love to watch men fuck each other and you fantasize all the time about giant cocks, but you are married to a woman and hate gay people? It’s like saying “you know what? I’m actually gay, and that’s okay and right, and I deserve love.”

#StayReadyCrew There’s still time to start building your pantry because as expensive as things are now…it’s just the tip of the iceberg. Don’t hoard or panic. Don’t buy stuff you don’t eat. Think strategically when you buy. Practice first in first out. www.moneytalksnews.com/forces-about...

Donald Trump is raping America. He won't stop, everyone wants him to stop, but he's just going to keep going because no one knows how to, or even tries to stop rapists anymore. We are uncomfortable, hurt, shamed, and it doesn't stop.

The first rule of Disneyland is "don't touch anything." If you do, wash your hands, don't touch your face. It took a while of having annual passes to figure out how to keep from getting whatever crud people were bringing to the parks. (also mask in indoor lines)

Smart glasses should be used like flock but for ice agents. Uniforms, face coverings, tattoos, identifiable things all landing at Meta and used to search their identities and locations. No one should do this. It would be bad. I take it back. Just let them keep killing people anonymously.

Hegseth comes out about unregistered soldiers when it comes to voting. I’d like to point out that no soldiers were getting mail for 6 months in the gulf because Iran blew up our base there. How are they supposed to vote if they can’t get their ballots?

have an artist that invited to work locally for a week to get more done faster with the creatives. They've been on the show for almost 6 months. Decides this is the time to triple their rate for the week. Doesn't see anything wrong with it. Has a side gig that would lose money, so wants $$$$.

It’s wild when I explain our pipeline to another vfx vendor. “I’ve built this legion tracker that ingests, tracks, assigns work, does dailies, submission, allows artists to request a package with their shots and send it back up. Creates starter scripts and template files. Built in media player…

Meanwhile the Saudi's nearly control Paramount and are close to control of Warner Brothers as well... So that's CBS and CNN news being delivered to you by the people that financed 9/11 and sent a majority of "pilots disinterested in landing on a smooth surface." Maybe worry about that.

Chicken, avocado mash, kimchi, tomato, and onion on Sara Lee wheat bread.
I put kimchi on a sandwich, and I think I liked it.This was a mess to eat, but the flavors worked well together.
