I once saw a documentary claim that sloths spends 80% of their lives upside down, which just makes me think we're wrong about which is the upside of a sloth.
Enjoying watching the BBC de-royal Andrew in real time. Last week he was still "the former prince", yesterday he was strictly "Andrew Mountbatten Windsor". Now half of them aren't even letting him have Windsor.

My friend wrote and performed this incredible raw expression of despair in a song and it's beating me up that nobody's seeing it. It's Death Cab singing something Conor Oberst thought was too sad. Sam's hit a real peak, let him know he did good, please www.youtube.com/watch?v=LpZn...

I guess this is why people end up getting actual cameras and choosing lenses. My eyes were looking at "Oh, there's snow on the hills", my phone camera was not. They are there though if you zoom in @rtorrubia.com (hope you're ok x)

I'll point out that even Obama was opposed to gay marriage at first and so was Clinton. Obama eventually saw the writing was on the wall with a large movement for legalizing letting gay people marry and eventually acceded to a popular movement then Dems took credit for being pro gay marriage.
They tolerate or even support bathroom and sports bans for trans women in part because they see us as a group of people who has lost the privileges of our rights and will have them revoked. The white liberal is the baseline of humanity for them, and all rights are privileges that flow from them.

One reason Republicans are so laser targeted on trans kids existing, is that trans kids existing requires accepting the bodily autonomy and consent of children.

Which is something republicans absolutely can't do, since they are pedophiles.

Their transphobia and pedophilia is them being consistent

Not massively interested in the IRA making political statements about.. anything, on reflection. Shut her up.
Sinn Féin leader Mary Lou McDonald has called on the FAI not to participate in the UEFA Nations League matches against Israel and added "Israel should be given the red card".

Had a dream that there was global panic about the world running out of oxygen, Nintendo was the only video game company to make a statement about it, and the internet collectively spent its final hours on Earth debating whether Nintendo was being genuine or not

Roses occur in a number of hues
Violets also vary
Sugar is sweet except in excess
And you, dear, are quite hairy.

You may laugh, but the Macbeths are a much better role model for a marriage than Romeo and Juliet. They discuss their problems (killing the king of Scotland), share their hobbies (killing the king of Scotland), and resolve their conflicts (by killing the king of Scotland).

If the sun holds on for four more minutes this might be the first day I've noticed so far this year where it's still light at the end of the work day. We're escaping the gloom!

We got to the point where mainstream media became polite. It didn't call people "fucking lunatics" because that wasn't the language of grown up journalists.

But that is their weakness. Politicians can deliberately be fucking lunatics and the media now doesn't dare say the words.
