Immigrants didn’t take your house. Immigrants built your house, grew and prepared your food, raised your wages, and made your community safer.

I’m loving all the art I’m seeing of Alastor and Velvette hanging out 😂 It’s so funny seeing people draw her putting makeup on him when he’s hanging out with her and Val because that’s literally what Skye and I pitched for that scene but it didn’t make the cut 😔 Lives on in the beautiful fanart lol

If we had had enough runtime or episodes we wanted more time spent with Alastor and the other two Vees. The closest was that scene with Velvette, but I'm glad people took away the right thing from it! Haha Alastor would weirdly get along with them. Which would just piss Vox off more lol

Decent number of the California conservative transplants to Texas have been surprised to find 1: it's not actually that much cheaper, 2: our services suck, 3: they will still be treated like blue haired hippies just for being from California

Deportations actually _increase_ housing prices because they shrink the construction industry.

The reduction in new houses being built swamps effects from lower demand

NEW: The first two years of Massachusetts' millionaire tax has raised $3 billion more than expected.

And rather than driving the rich away, IPS researchers found that the number of millionaires has *increased.*

But Bannon and Stephen Miller do.

We've created fictional influencers—from Bane to Tyler Durden to Rick Sanchez to Cartman to Heath Ledger's Joker—who made villainy seem so hip, and dehumanized victims' pain so hilarious, that a wave of propagandists with teenage mentalities saw their chance.

You can tell the tariffs are dogshit because everyone online defending them is sounding like some kind of Dark Mage talking about an overdue reckoning. Nobody who is about to make money talks like that

Kinda old hat.These fantasies are based on medieval Eng. and as Twain said one of the causes of the CW was that too many Southern men read Ivanhoe. This "Cavalier Myth" gave us Southern chivalry, the Lost Cause, & various white supremacy groups with "Knights" in their title. They've just added orcs.

Musk and others on the far right are obsessed with things like Lord of the Rings and Dungeons and Dragons because they see fantasy worlds as reinforcing their own beliefs about immutable hierarchies of race, gender, and by extension morality www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2025/1...

Of course the real new bond film should be a young, cool James Bond.

Plus a grim, hardcore James Bond.

Plus a black James Bond in a metal suit.

And a Cyborg James Bond.

That's a much better idea than mine: Bond makes a deal with the literal devil to bring his dead aunt back to life and to make his identity secret again. But it costs him his marriage! Fans would love that.

It's very simple. The next film should be about four Bonds: a cyborg one, a bloke in a suit of armour with a big hammer, a teenage one who's cloned from the DNA of Bond and Blofeld, and a fascist one that's secretly an artifact from Bond's homeworld.
Then the real one should come back with a mullet.
