At this point it is an axiomatic truth that continuing to support the Labour Party while proclaiming to be left-of-centre or progressive requires completely ignoring both their explicit words and actions. Assess those who continue to do so and their conception of politics accordingly.

Oh ha ha yeah, it's complicated but basically: The king declared The reign of Mohammed ibn Saud, from 1727 on, as the foundational moment of the Saudi state. Until recently, that was in 1744, when ibn Saud made a pact with Muhammed ibn Abdul-Wahhab to spread his specific interpretation of Islam.

One thing future historians are going to notice very well is that both times the US came to the brink of destruction in the two and a half centuries after its founding, it was at the hands of men who wanted an unlimited license to rape and get away with it, not only legally but socially.

There is something deeply wrong with how obsessed the Democrats are with winning over the worst people ever and not at all concerned with all the people on the left they isolate by embracing insurrectionist nazis.

Tommy with a ponytail is my fav because I imagine it falling lower and lower throughout the day because he has no time to fix it in-between being a full-time big brother and looking after his siblings and running the household 🥹

Just saw a trailer for another Osgood Perkins film that looks like it might be good. Nice try. Not falling for it a third time.

Rocksteady's skeeviness aside, I still think Asylum is the best Arkham game. Trapping Batman with some of his worst rogues and having to survive one hellish night is a great game concept and draws well from Batman mythology. Was always disappointed that Origins had Joker pull the same scheme on-

Personally I think, in a general sense, VAs might begrudgingly allow their voices to be trained in such a way bc they might need the work. Coercion of the market and all that. But what ARC Raiders does with VA-trained AI is absolutely less unethical than what CoD does with AI in general
Didn't ARC like, explicitly state their AI use to the VAs and committed to paying them going forwards? That is much more acceptable than this shit the CoD devs are pulling, imo.

This is equal parts horrifying and hilarious, because the Eisenhower Building, which Trump is now calling "ugly," was one of the prime examples of architectural perfection used to justify his executive order mandating "neoclassical" architecture.

Universal's 'Creature from the Black Lagoon' followup serves more than cheap thrills. It drafts a blueprint that sequel still use today.
