Arc de Trump or Arch de Narcissism?
This isn’t about history or patriotism. It’s a psychological tell. A president so insecure and obsessed with himself that he needs monuments, and gold trim in order to feel like a king. And we’re forced to watch him spiral in real time.

Went to the Night Market in Old Bellevue tonight. About 6 food trucks, and maybe 30 vendors. Didn't stay super long, as it is almost freezing out (37 degrees). I had a sweet and spicy chicken sandwich. We also brought home cannoli for dessert.

In case you’re wondering, 100 million is the approximate number of people in the USA who aren’t white. They’re openly saying they want to deport everyone who isn’t white.
This should not be shrugged aside. They have stopped with the fake 22 million illegal immigrants things and are flat out saying we want to deport 10's of millions of citizens and legal residents from "third world countries" Basically they are advocating removing 1/3 of the population on a gov site.

Finished the second season of Castle Rock. This season has a slight connection to season 1, but is basically a stand alone story. I enjoyed it up until the last episode. I think they could have cut the last 15 minutes, it would have been a better ending.

Fucking homophobic jackasses are review bombing Stranger Things, because of one great emotional scene.
The Rotten Tomatoes audience score for the final season of #StrangerThings has turned upside down.
The show’s score has plummeted in the wake of the release of the second batch of episodes from season five, falling to a series low of 57 percent. bit.ly/4jjU6qS

I would never vote for her, but recently she has been standing up to Trump and saying things about him which I wish the rest of the GOP would listen to.
Marjorie Taylor Greene says she's "planning to" talk further about how the "sexualization" of Republican women within the Trump administration, in a scathing critique of the beauty standards in politics.

The current theory on tiktok is the algorithm reset to filter out ICE raid videos based on a leaked DOJ memo calling videotaping ICE is terrorism. The algorithm definitely reset I've been getting videos from November and ones I've seen before all day.
