I cannot tell you how much energy I spent in high school and college trying to avoid and/or correct run-on sentences in what were ultimately meaningless stories, essays, and research papers.

Kyle Kingsbury is not a journalist. He is not an op-ed writer.
He is a computer safety researcher.
And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine.

Man it feels good to see the news and feel hope again
a dark cave with the words look to my coming on the first light of the fifth day
Alt: A scene from Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers. Gimli and Aragorn stand in a dimly lit room in Helm's Deep, which is surrounded by an overwhelming force of orcs. Solemnly, Gimli comments, "The sun is rising." Aragorn looks to a window as the morning light begins to fill the room, and he remembers the words spoken to him by Gandalf five days earlier: "Look to my coming on the first light of the fifth day; at dawn, look to the east."

Here's an idea: find just one of these "distractions" and stop it. JUST. STOP. ONE. Then find another one, and then the next.
This administration is getting away with a million crimes bc the Dem establishment is dismissing them as distractions.
Do SOMETHING, FFS!

A perfectly frank & honest piece from Mark, here. The opening paragraph is how every conversation about Q & the others involved should start. Many fans will want to move on, but it's worth repeating this ad infinitum if it compels even just one person to step up when in a similar situation.

On my knees begging, pleading for someone in attendance to ask this sleezebag if he thinks "America has no king" is a foundational truth of this republic
Johnson: "We call it the Hate America Rally that will happen Saturday. Let's see who shows up for that. I bet you you'll see Hamas supporters, I bet you'll see antifa types, I bet you'll see Marxists on full display, people who don't want to stand and defend the foundational truths of this republic"

I'm happy for Jake Walman. Hope that man gets a few Stanley Cups.
And I have no other feelings on the matter.
Zero thoughts.
Don't even suggest that I have thoughts.

In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists when unprovoked — what would we call it?
If federal agents marched down streets demanding papers — what would we say?

Having intentionally avoided Tim Pool, this video is wild to me bc that corny-ass lead-up about the cabin could very easily and logically lead into a comment about climate change.
It legit had me wondering for a millisecond if Tim Pool believed in climate change.
But no, it's just xenophoba.

the political policy cure for “male loneliness” is
- more time to hang with the fellas (4 day work week)
- more money to spend with the fellas (higher wages)
- more things to do with the fellas (taxing the rich and building 3rd spaces)
