Oh wow hi new followers, welcome along on this long, strange trip we call life.

I'm Revontulet, I'm an Aquarius, I immigrated to Canada nearly 15 years ago from the US, I like photography, cooking, house/bass music, stories about your cats, & playing Diablo 4. I'm learning to DJ & make bad mashups.

EXACTAMUNDO! :D

Especially on the subject of an exclusive number of people getting it.

It all goes back to Joel's famous quote on the show: "We never say 'Who's going to get this?' We always say: 'The RIGHT people will get this.' "

And then it just becomes a matter of finding the *right* people.
The thing about MST3k is that people will keep it alive no matter what.

Not just riffing, but the art of riffing as a thing you engage in not cynically but with love for the thing you're doing, a love of weird and obscure pulls and jokes that only two people in the world will actually get.

The Epstein Cabal of financial criminals was only able to trust each other bc they had nuclear-level information on each other. This is the same reason we don’t fuck with N Korea and Russia gets away with stuff. Mutually assured destruction is the contract that allows them to trust each other.

You know what would have fixed this? Universal healthcare and UBI. Plus supportive housing for at least homeless CHILDREN.

And this is why rich and powerful men don’t want us to have those things. Poor young people are prey to them.

On Nov 17 at 9AM the city of Toronto will raise the Palestinian flag. The city often raises flags to respect the multicultural nature of the city.
It is non-partisan.

Let me get this straight: The Right has spent years calling trans people, drag performers, queers, teachers and librarians "groomers" -- but Epstein and Trump are NOT child molesters, because *checks notes* their victims were young-looking 15-year-olds?!

The essential item here is the TV crew.

We need to understand that the administration's policy is driven by an optimization function that weights aesthetics over everything.

To be powerful is to be seen being powerful.
A Black Hawk helicopter. SWAT teams repelling to the roof. 300 agents. Flash-bang grenades. A TV crew.

“It’s 20,000 of them running through my house like we got Saddam Hussein in the closet."

For all that, fed prosecutors filed no criminal charges against anyone who was arrested.

Stunning report.

Under 18 and you're not. It's rape and pedophilia. Not in a position to give consent? Rape. Given to you as if she's property? Rape. These are bars that are so low as to be subterranean.

Here's hoping we create a better world, one in which these sorts of people spend the rest of their lives unemployed and in shame
According to the car wash owner, agents arrested employees before they could obtain their documentation from their work lockers. So many were likely here legally.

You think these powerful people felt SHAME to associate with the pedophile Epstein? You think they felt SHAME abusing girls with him? They'd feel shame if the culture ever held them to account. They can reasonably assume based on the standard way things go that this won't happen.

"The rage-baiting is really nauseating," says Councillor Parthi Kandavel. "The idea or the implication that we're against kids getting ice cream or seniors getting a cappuccino, it's troubling. That insinuation that some of us are knuckle-dragging suburbanites ... it doesn't reflect the complexity."

Shan embodies that which is so deeply wrong with the NDP.
Councillor Shan moves to exclude three streets in his ward. He worries the retail spaces created won't just be small shops selling ice cream to locals, but things like "beef patties that are so popular that people from the 905 will come to get it." That'll just add to traffic problems, he says.
