The answer to this is really simple - Putin gave them permission, when the Russians invaded a sovereign nation.

Haha, I read the twist and it was so hilarious. Earth would 100% be known as a water planet to aliens. Be like us going to the Pools of Bubbling Arsenic Planet.

Everything is Illuminated. Brilliant film, gave me a deep appreciation for Ukraine. I couldn’t go through watching it again, although I highly recommend it.

He was asked about it specifically, and if her transphobia would stop him playing the character, and he said “heavens, no!”

The California Bar also did nothing about the decades of fraud reports regarding Tom Girardi and there’s evidence at least some of them were complicit. So this tracks, for me.

That James Patterson news was…gross. And I’m not a writer, outside of papers for university. Can’t imagine how demoralizing it must be.

Writing humour is an incredible skill, and almost no writers I’ve read in my life made me laugh as hard as The Stupidest Angel did. Fascists can’t stand humour, bc it surprises people, and when their guard is down, they learn things. Keep kicking the darkness until it bleeds daylight.

Legit makes me wonder what misconduct we might be finding out about Newsome soon, with this shift to the right.

I named my child, I loved their name. They told me it didn’t work, and I let it go immediately. Not my name, not my life, not my choice. They’re happier now, isn’t that what a parent should want?

Every single person who has, or has known someone who has, changed their name when they got married should be able to get their head around this. It’s a disingenuous lie to pretend it’s that hard, and something that can’t just be done.

Someone in another post pointed out that it’s literally from the CIA handbook on disrupting organizations and movements to nitpick language and cause fights over semantics.

Even though this was not the official party, the party needs to see massive, LOUD pushback to this as if it was them or they will consider adopting it. People need to make them listen by being as loud and obnoxious as Republicans. youtu.be/By1Z1nk31iE?...

I always forget how much I liked that one! I started Angela Collier’s video on Star Trek, and didn’t expect to sit through all of it, but I ended up watching every minute and the end made me grieve for the Star Trek I loved. The Trek that helped me find myself, and that feels so far away now.

I like Voyage Home the best. V-ger orifice from The Motion Picture still cracks me up every time.

12 years ago, I went to the Holocaust museum in DC and then to the American History Smithsonian and I couldn’t even speak on the ride home because I was so terrified. I saw the rising fascism in the US back then, and people just could not understand when I tried to explain.
