I will not pay for this book, but I will read it. Theocrats don't usually throw the word "pagan" around. In the description they are talking about actual "centuries-old ancient pagan ideologies". This martyr cult of Charlie Kirk is poised for a full on Satanic Panic. #paganism #satanism #wicca

Jimmy Kimmel has been fired for the joke Trump is mourning Charlie Kirk the way a four year old mourns a gold fish. But I don't think he went far enough. I think Trump is mourning Charlie Kirk the way a gold fish mourns a four year old. The difference is I'm not joking.

The perpetual civic genuflecting to the memory of Charlie Kirk is exactly the same as people not knowing when to stop applauding when Stalin gave speeches.

The authoritarians are pissing their britches about people calling their Gator Gulag "Alligator Auschwitz". But they're also pitching the idea that detainees could work to earn for their citizenship. Or in the original German, "Arbeit macht frei".

The Black Cat Cafe was a Bohemian Lounge that opened in San Francisco in 1906. After WWII it was declared "OFF LIMITS" to seamen and soldiers on shore leave, because it had a reputation for "lewd behavior". So... guess where the seamen and soldiers hung out on shore leave?

Why are conservatives so grotesque? I tuned into KSFO (because I'm a masochist). In a segment talking shit about the recently deceased pope they started bitching about the progress flag. They claimed unironically that the light blue the pink stripes officially represent "minor attracted people".
