If Russians attack the undersea cables does it mean we lose contact with America because the Forever War freaks are gonna have to work on something more persuasive than that

Anyone reaching out to Naomi Long can primarily find her on the CSAM generator website run by the "pleeeeaaase invite me to your Paedo island" Nazi man
@naomilong.bsky.social what are you doing about this? You made a big deal of saying you pushed for NI to be included in this trial and now this.

This style of light doesn't really appear in animation anymore. You know it when you see it -- it's bright, hot and almost dangerous.

Our new issue explores the tricks behind it, and how one artist has revived the look for the digital age: animationobsessive.substack.com/p/dangerous-...

Perhaps journalists can start putting questions to Micheál about how many children a state has to murder to actually warrant action from him.
We know that 20,000 isn't enough for the fucking ghoul (which we can safely assume is already an obscene underestimation of the actual figure).
Yes, Micheál Martin "Sport can be challenging when it crosses into the realm of politics" which is exactly why the Israeli state's sportswashing of apartheid and genocide has to be tackled head on.
Israel must be expelled from UEFA and the FAI must boycott these Nations League fixtures. #BanIsrael

Just for the record, we have a moral obligation to boycott this match. You don't get to murder 50000+ people and stay part of civilized society. "Football isn't about politics" bullshit. Everything is about politics now. The front line is everywhere and everything.
I would question why anyone who is against genocide would willingly put on an Israel jersey and want to play for Israel. I have to assume that the Israeli players are supportive of the genocide their country is perpetuating- bc noone against it would agree to represent the country. So MM's argument

SCA friends did some of the props for the movie The Thirteenth Warrior (filmed in British Columbia). A bunch of us did a viewing when the movie came out on DVD so we could pause to zoom in on "Gerhard's stirrup" & other props they'd made.

We saw this with the frothing GC reaction the Elliot Page. He didn't come out as trans until he was in his 30s and the transphobic weirdos and all their sock accounts started crying, screaming, throwing up.
The stealth transphobic rhetoric simultaneously argues;

1. That younger people must wait to know they are sure
2. That older people have waited too long to transition and be socially accepted.

The end game is the elimination of trans people.
Alternatively, if you come out as a child with the support of your parents, you are able to experience this adjustment within a context of loving support. Plus your appearance is pretty easy to adjust, bc young people look more alike.

Sorry no, we are human beings, people here deserve to have a decent quality of life - a minimum standard of that would mean that the government tackles terrorist organisations suffocating their own communities.

The only good thing about the wild proscription (and active enforcement of that prescription) of Palestine Action has been to show in neon brightness, the hypocrisy of the British Government when it comes to ensuring police tackle armed and actively recruiting, proscribed terrorist orgs here
