We're gonna need a truth and reconciliation commission and Nuremberg style trials to reckon with all of this evil, and any Dem candidate for office who shies away from a full reckoning in the name of "moving forward as a nation" can get well and truly fucked
I feel much safer today knowing that we deported a Babson College student back to a country where she hasn't lived since childhood.
She wasn't even flying internationally. She was flying to Texas.

I just watched Lindsay Buckingham post a TikTok.
Doing a current TikTok trend on joining Fleetwood Mac.
Set to Silver Springs.
A song that is about his failing relationship that has since devolved into a 60-year love/hate situationship with Stevie Nicks.
That’s me done for tonight. Goodnight.

If you want a further chestnut to add to the levy of incompetence that is this Starmer government, the government just accidentally released the entirety of the budget nearly half an hour before the Chancellor announces it.

"The White House isn't sure whether Trump actually had a phone call or just imagined it" is where we are on the dementia scale now.
An amazing new Trump controversy, Part II of II:

- Monday afternoon: The Trump White House isn’t sure whether Trump actually had the conversation he referenced two days earlier
- Saturday afternoon: Trump says he spoke to Bolsonaro the night before and planned to see him “in the very near future”

White House hedges on Trump’s curious claim about his call with Brazil’s Bolsonaro White House hedges on Trump’s curious claim about his call with Brazil’s Jair Bolsonaro
Did the Republican president talk to Bolsonaro as the Brazilian plotted to escape? Trump said yes, but the White House isn’t so sure.

"Owned a home in the U.S. for 30 years": I try not to look down on others, but the people who swallowed the bait that he'd only deport 'bad hombres' and 'criminals' have a gullibility so intense that it warrants study by science, if only this country still did that.
ICE deported a woman who owned a home in the US for 30 years. A judge banned ICE from deporting her to Sierra Leone where she had been tortured, so it deported her to Ghana, which kidnapped her and sent her back Sierra Leone anyway. ICE is part of this illegal conspiracy.

I genuinely question anyone who says Rogue One is bad when the prequel trilogy and The Rise of Skywalker exist.
And I say that as someone who has a soft spot for two-thirds of the PT (I like watching TPM and Sith, but objectively, they are also very bad films).
Rogue One is great.

I don’t know how anyone can have this opinion. ROGUE ONE is arguably one of the best STAR WARS films - I’d rank it after EMPIRE, tbh.

Reality is that TGA is designed to honor AAA games and there aren’t AAA puzzle games. It’s kind of like how there’s an “action adventure” category that is designed to keep out indie adventure games that don’t rely on combat.
