How would he tell which baby is the right Baby Churchill? As Winston himself liked to joke, all babies looked like him.

you know, when i feel intimidated or scared about saying something like this in public, i find it really helpful to remind myself that i'm in a unique position, however small on a world scale, to push society even the slightest bit toward liberation. it's more important than my feelings

The guerilla marketing for the multi-episode Space Arc at the start of this season of 9-1-1 has gotten WAY out of control.
We have upgraded our geomagnetic forecast today (12 November 2025) to the highest intensity level amid an ongoing solar storm.
Current predictions suggest that the activity will result in potentially the largest solar storm to hit our planet in over two decades.

I caught the start of this episode recently. "Homefront", the one about what terrorism and security paranoia does to a society. When viewing security video of a bombing, the command "go to time index FIVE NINE ELEVEN" is spoken.
In an episode about terrorism that came out 5 years before THAT 9/11.

A man came to Broadview searching for his wife of five years after she was taken by ICE at her court hearing. He wasn’t told anything, tracked her by her phone, and was left weeping in the parking lot.

New awareness campaign
A Vietnam Vet we know through Church called for my Dad the other week to ask about some YouTube videos he'd seen of the new Pope saying outrageous things. Luckily Dad was out and I took the call. Took me all of 15 seconds of one video to be able to say, "Yes, this is AI bullshit, just ignore it."
A friend told me that her American dad got in touch to talk about some news he'd seen on Facebook: there are riots in England over DEI, and the King dramatically burst into parliament to tell Starmer off, and then Prince William did the same to Sadiq Khan. AI really is inventing bold new universes

I see getting married to Moogie really *has* turned even Grand Nagus Zek woke as heck. Either that, or Vizzini has gotten out of the "starting wars" business and instead been hired to start a Revolution.
On the other site, an 18-year-old Zohran canvasser described the legendary Wallace Shawn as "the actor who plays Dr. Sturgis on Young Sheldon" which is honestly adorable

Kristi Noem is *literally* a worse criminal than any illegal immigrant who has only violated Immigration laws (~40% of those being deported) even *before* all the illegal crap she's been ordering her goons to carry out in Trump's name.
Yet in 2010, Noem—then a congressional candidate—had “20 speeding tickets, three stop-sign violations, two seat-belt violations and a citation for driving with no driver’s license.” She had six court notices for failing to appear, and had two warrants out for her arrest. trib.al/uQSDaqR

i think the essential problem is that Marx did not understand that once you raise the stakes of government to "kill or die," that government will have two sorts of person: psychopaths who are great at killing and cowards who are great at not dying.
did marx intend stalin? almost certainly not. marx also failed to foresee stalin, though. like. i am pretty sure if you'd asked him about stalin as a hypothetical he would have been like "absolutely the fuck not"
