    i mean at this point humanity being seriously limited and constrained can only be a good thing imo.
  5. oh boy
  6. i watched the John Oliver immigration segment tonight and it made me physically ill. it also had me add the NIJC to my annual charity list, which otherwise has consisted exclusively of animal charities. our country is run by the devil.
  7. interesting, i assumed fatty would prefer it in black.
  8. the hooking up didn't bother me because it's a pretty standard trope, the heroes hooking up after some terrible traumatic encounter, it just happened to be two girls instead of girl/guy which should be normal. however, emotionally it fell soooo waaay flat next to 'Long, Long Time'. the baby/family/'daddy' stuff was absolutely ridiculous 🙄 i really like Dina though, she's smarter and more likable than Ellie.
  9. yeah... this entire dumpster fire is absolute proof there is no deep state. Jason Bourne and Ethan Hunt are not coming to save us lol
  10. holy fuck that is some commie sounding bullshit also... we don't get credit? clearly he's never been to Normandy 🙄
  11. are those last two real?? i mean it's totally not surprising if they are, but it's truly impossible to tell 🤨
  12. he also had that miraculous healing head wound. and his minion killed the pope. i mean i'm not religious but...
  13. saw today... loved loved loved the dance floor/music stuff, so good! really enjoyed it. see... this, Warfare... there ARE movies that belong on the big screen with a collective experience!
  14. ohhh that sounds great too...combo of chicken francese and piccata 😄
  15. i mean it almost did happened, TWICE, and there was basically a collective honestly one of the stranger inflection points this past year.
  16. 1 lb, yes also i forgot i added about 1/2 T of butter at the end to give the sauce a touch of richness! enjoy... they've def gone into rotation here 😊
  17. Obama broke their brains. the pandemic just gave them focus for their oppositional defiance disorder.
  18. there were protests in Harlem, against Harvard? HIS BRAIN IS FUCKING MUSH
  19. "Barack Hussein O-bow-ma"? "Hillary Road-am Clinton"?
  20. well...here in Denver we did have the old white lady heckling ICE agents raiding an apartment complex from across the street: "what's wrong with you losers?? get out of our community! get a real job!! your mom is ashamed of you!!" which was pretty pointless but i appreciated it nonetheless.
  21. alright now, that'll be enough of that bullshit.
  22. well, okay man. i tried, just giving you an observational perspective, but admittedly i don't stalk you thread to thread like some. my observation has been you throw the word 'clown' around in pretty much every post nowadays. which, fine, you've given your reason, but it's basically a meme now (as seen in several other threads just today lol). i used Israel as an example not bc it's an issue that's 'gone to 11' in my view, but bc i previously recalled active and emotional discussion in the prior year especially (post 10/7)...but your participation seemed to just fizzle post-'let's make Gaza the new Atlantic City!', your last comment was many weeks ago and was pretty much exactly what i quoted. having said that, maybe you just gave up actually arguing, which might be understandable. but it was noticeable, if not intentional, which is what has informed my perspective. anyways, pretty sure death porn violates surly rules, and is not really relevant to the point im making. you're not off on the general abuses of law enforcement, authoritarianism, etc., or really immigration in general...but come on man, we have absolutely gone off the rails, and at the highest levels of our government! im sorry but there's at a minimum a difference in scale between (example) Acevedo's no-knock warrant fiascos* and the fucking PRESIDENT throwing all due process out the window and literally shipping people off to torture prisons in a foreign country. like, come on. more often than not (especially in 'recent months', which is why it's stood out given current events) you've chosen snide condescension and minimalization in response to expressions of genuine fear, outrage, and absolute horror at what has been happening. again, my observational perspective. but...maybe you've just decided nothing matters and gave up trying to articulate any points, certainly plenty here have. kind of an understandable response to the firehose of evil, mendacity and cruelty we've been subjected to nonstop for months now. i purposely and arbitrarily limit my own capacity for outrage engagement just for my own mental/emotional health. and i barely paid attention to the Steele dossier...but i do agree with the sentiment that it would be difficult to say what a Russian asset/agent would be doing differently right now to destroy the essence of American democracy 🤨 *sidenote for anybody that remembers the story of our best friends subjected to one of Acevedo's 'raid before dawn' no-knock warrants in Crestview that resulted in a cop getting shot and our friends high-schooler being sentenced to 13 years...he was just paroled about two weeks ago! 👍
