Reminds me of that one time that Musk decided to interfere with a Ukrainian operation against the Russian navy in the Black Sea, remotely turning off the drones via Starlink right as they approached on attack. Turnabout is fair play, shitstain. www.nbcnews.com/news/world/m...

Ukraine blasts Elon Musk for thwarting an attack on Russia's fleet
The tech billionaire said Thursday that he had told his engineers not to turn on the Starlink satellite network over Crimea to prevent a planned attack on the Black Sea fleet last year.

There shouldn't be *any* ICE inflicted shootings, my man. ANY is TOO MANY. Fucking fascist taint lickers, each more sloppy than the last.

The move comes after North Valley officers said some of ICE’s tactics during traffic stops and arrests didn’t align with the department’s values. www.sltrib.com/news/2026/10/09/moro…

Public executions, including lynchings and mob violence, are always focused on larger messages about control and power, and what we are experiencing, both with this firing squad and daylight killings by ICE, is the normalization of fascistic state power owning the right to life and death.

Fascism is grounded in creating in and out groups in which rights and protections and spoils and even life itself is the property of the former while the latter can be degraded and abused and murdered without consequence at any moment. This execution is a milestone along the road to that.

"SCROTUS should have been ruder to the transgender community in general and the plaintiffs in this case in particular by mis-gendering them whilst ALSO legally denying them full participation in society" is the gripe here? Just making sure I'm following the line of bigot thinking.

What's even stupider is these chuds seem to think a "John Wick" is a real type of dude who exists, not a very elaborately edited filmed dance performance involving dozens of professional stunt people, prop work, special effects, and costuming.

JHU is an Ivy-equivalent on the East Coast, all those schools regularly compete against each other academically, athletically, and artisically. We hosted kids from Dartmouth, VTech, UPenn, Colombia, MIT, etc. all the time for various student activities over the weekends.

She didn't make it up, she got it from stories of some street gangster in Victorian London (?) or somewhere, who people wouldn't say the name of for fear of it getting back to them that they were talking about them.

Nah, for Vance and the other Trumpoids, it is about pandering to a base they think is stupid, and smugly expecting no one to call them on it, because they buy into their own elitism: they are the clever fellows who can wink at the unknowing camera, their voters are the rubes.

The Telmarines are heavily implied to be descendants of the HMS Bounty mutineers, which introduces a staggering problem in the timeline: The Bounty mutiny was in 1789. The Magician's Nephew/the beginning of Narnia takes place ca. 1900. So that was one helluva time portal they found.

stop treating the culture wars as an exogenous shock. political actors made strategic choices to create and weaponize them. they are not a curious weather condition public schools failed to dress appropriately for.

DC has long-lasting trades that aren't Moore joints tho, far more than Marvel. The Dark Knight is an obvious one, but also Kingdom Come, The Hiketeia, Brave New World, etc. Sandman (sigh) also lived most of its life as trades. Heck, Marvel doesn't even have a Crisis.

It almost feels redundant to say so, but I'm figuring racism is at play. NH mostly white. MAGAts conceive of all white people as sympathetic to white supremacy. NC and GA much more diverse electorates. I think their racism is blinding them to other realities, like how much everyone hates them.

People always get distracted by the "weird sex" part and don't even consider the "property and wealth concentration" part. Early American law deviated significantly from English common law on this point, pivoting from primogeniture to equal inheritance to forestall generational aristocracy.
