omg I watched all of Predator: Badlands last night on amazon w/ SUBTITLES ON and none of the Predator's language was subtitled. Learned from a friend THERE ARE SUBTITLES FOR HIM. Apparently I had to turn English subtitles off to know what the fuck the Predators were saying. 😭

WH sources say Venezuela's opposition leader committed the "ultimate sin": She accepted the Nobel Peace prize.

“If she had turned it down and said, ‘I can’t accept it because it’s Donald Trump’s,’ she’d be the president of Venezuela today,” one said.

So, I finally saw If I Had Legs I'd Kick You, and no exaggeration- that might be the most anxiety-inducing film I've ever seen. Like, moreso than Uncut Gems or Good Time. Holy fuck.

The identity of the intelligence officer who leaked the top secret chats to Chris Rufo remains under wraps—for now. As far as any of the staffers I spoke to know, the leaker has not been disciplined.

When Rufo published the leaked chats, he used salacious, inflammatory terms to describe discussions of gender transition surgeries, how those surgeries impacted sex and the experience of ones body, and the choice to have multiple partners.

Gabbard took the bait, and queer staffers paid the price.

Chats between queer staffers were on a platform where employees discussed many non-work related topics in a safe space. Only queer staff was punished.

“I was talking about having multiple partners instead of complaining about my wife, and I was talking about top surgery instead of foot surgery.”

Gabbard said on Fox News on Feb 25 that she was firing 100 queer staffers involved in the leaked chat. In reality, it’s been far fewer than that.

But a culture of fear, confusion and humiliation has taken hold. “One common thread runs through many officers' stories: They are queer.”
