With those sea-girls, it fits here better than most:

We have lingered in the chambers of the sea
By sea-girls wreathed with seaweed red and brown
Till the Epstein files wake us, and we drown.

Yes, by all means, block everyone who accuses you of going after the straw man you just attacked.
In short: man attacks people for pointing out his straw man fallacy. Image: Cooper Lund blames RFK's cuts of funding for mRNA vaccines on people who hold a position that few if any actual people actually hold. Then he says he'll block "anyone who intentionally misreads this as being anti-mask." And to be fair his post isn't so much anti-mask as anti-masker. And to be even more fair, the position he describes is a pretty dumb one, which is why nearly nobody holds it.

WTF is wrong with us...in one screen grab:
A screen grab of the front page of the New York Times, juxtaposing a story about people dying of hunger in Gaza, with an image of two children weeping while pleading for food as the crowd behind them crushes them into a fence, against another story about how two wealthy Americans made their dreams come true in Normandy, France. There's also a headline summary plugging stories about Trump and Epstein as well as "How Many Steps You Really Need."

This is where I post from:
Still image from the 1992 coming-of-age movie Leolo, about a child whose family life is so sordid and abusive that he escapes into fantasy to survive. The image shows Leolo in an ice bath with the white-sleeved arms and hands of a medical professional shining a pen light into Leolo's eyes, which are open at the surface of the water. He looks stunned.

Just a snapshot, tiny data sample, hasty generalizations, etc., but hey...of the 246 covid deaths worldwide in the latest week for which stats are available (May 4-11), 201 happened in the United States.

Would someone please try this for me so I don't have to be the first? Because it looks and sounds horribly, violently wrong. But...I'm curious, nonetheless. Velvet Taco does too few vegetarian specials, and their basic veg options are so damn good. Please advise.

Welcome, 2025!

I don't condone murder, but I do support personal and mutual self defense. Billionaires are murdering us.
