Done intentionally, promoted by both Trump and Epstein to muddy the accusations being made against them. They have emails between Epstein and the 4chan guys who cooked up Qanon—what more proof do we need?

I hate posts like this because I fear post-death revelations, but one thing is for sure: Robert Duvall was a giant among actors.
A giant loss: Robert Duvall is gone. An extraordinary artist who was fluent in every dialect of film acting, from ice-cold underplayer (The Godfather) to expert naturalist (Tender Mercies, The Apostle) to balls-to-the-wall maniac (Apocalypse Now). One of our all-timers. Plunge into that filmography.
Robert Duvall, the legendary actor whose career has spanned over six decades, has died at 95, his wife announced

To those angry at being lectured for withholding votes, I have done it myself, so I speak from experience.
I am sorry I did it not because I was wrong but because it was tactically stupid.
I just want us all to realize that we should unite forces in general elections to defeat Fascism.

Some kinda prion disease from eating human flesh would explaing like 99% of the insanity perpetuated by our leadership in general for the last 2 decades. Mass qamounts of narcotics, illicit sex with minors, and brain rot from cannibalism, and suddenly the last 20 years of our country makes sense

It seems to me we are placating Israelis, who undoubtedly were beneficiaries of Epstein's blackmail materials, and who now own the Republican Party.
Religious barbarity must be protected (they think) for the sake of the prime brainwashing technique employed to keep a population dumb and fearful.

The investigation was because of a complaint made by a rabbi and the impacted community is Jewish. What are we doing here.

I read about Epstein accusations including torture, murder, cannibalism, etc., and I think, stay calm, don't give in to the temptation to become a conspiratorial thinker, and then I think some more, and it occurs to me that so far every horrific rumor about these ghouls has been proven true.

My old Toyota costs me 10¢/mi in fuel, 2¢ in tags, and 8¢ in insurance. Maintenance and repairs are currently negligible, but to be safe figure another 10¢/mi to build a repair fund. At 10,000 mi/yr, that's $1,000/yr.
That's 30¢/mi or $3,000/yr total expense.
Who does better in the U.S. & how?

I miss when you could post Brave Norman Rockwell Townsperson and the caption could be, like, “R.E.M was wrong to leave ‘Fretless’ off of Out of Time” instead of “The secret police should stop murdering people.”

Brilliant analysis of an iconic scene from CASABLANCA with too much contemporary relevance. “The Germans are but one small enclave, finding themselves within a community that’s filled with less traditional power but greater numbers and far superior zeal.”

The Audi did not impress me at first, but it really presents itself beautifully on track.
I have no affinity for Audi the company, but well done to the team, chassis and engine.

No one knows what consciousness is, but our best bet is an emergent phenomenon, like clouds–nothing really solid there but still something as the result of being the sum of many smaller parts.
The idea that we can recreate this phenomenon using entirely dissimilar equipment is lunacy or a lie.

My beliefs about those in the Epstein files have evolved. Initially I believed it was sexual sadism. But as new details about slavery & cannibalism have emerged. I now think it is a compulsion for members of this group to demonstrate power by violating with impunity our deepest held societal norms!

What we are seeing is that if America's wealthy and corporations were in Germany in the 30s they would have behaved exactly as they are behaving now.

This is old man talk, but when I was young we physically fought and learned the lines not to cross.
Then came zero tolerance policies and so on, and I can't help but think that the proud boy/ICE type is someone who could have benefited from a good beating as a teenager to teach him how to act.

I am sure this has been pointed out, but Tyson is a convicted rapist, so they have implied healthy food is associated with violence and sexual abuse.
I don’t want to be like Mike Tyson, Jay.
It’s incredible that Les Incompétents not only burned a fat stack of cash on a Mike Tyson Super Bowl ad, but are apparently building an entire campaign around him.
The food item for which Tyson is most famous is Evander Holyfield’s ear.
