Let's talk about Versailles.

Renderings show an ornate and gilded interior that departs from the simplicity of the original White House and echoes the look of the ballroom at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida, a look he has said was inspired by the Palace of Versailles in France.

Manwë told me Melkor keeps harrying the Firstborn of Ilúvatar so I asked how many Elves he has and he said he just goes to Middle-Earth and invites more Elves on the Great Journey so I said it sounds like he’s just feeding the Quendi to Morgoth and then Nienna started crying.

6.) People thinking of cinnamon or cinema, might think this a game about Satan
7.) The Empire where the sun never sets. Or rises
8.) This spinoff of about high ranking military personnel is set in Britain’s second city
9.) The person who works the fishing gear on a trawler
10.) ∙--∙ ∙ - ∙ ∙-∙, ∙--∙ ∙- ∙∙- ∙-∙∙, -- ∙- ∙-∙ ¬-∙--

The silver lining is they are almost always failsons who relative to the potential gains they could make are costing their families money and the industrial system of sport they belong to is phenomenally good at wringing rich morons of their money to force it back into circulation.

You are not arguing with a fascist incel chud. What is happening is not an argument. You are not in an argument with them. They specifically derive pleasure from seeing you acting as if they are arguing with you, as if you are both having an argument.

“Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.”

3. I assume they don’t want me around
