If aggressively bleak post-war Italian cinema is your thing, then "Il Grido" is probably worth a look. It features Steve Cochran as a down-on-his-luck drifter, Alida Valli from "The Third Man", and a sparse but excellent score by Giovanni Fusco. #FilmSky

Not a big deal if these "persecuted" white people are afraid to show their faces. Their KKK robe is hanging in the closet.

They just showed the white supremacist snowflake ad during the World Series again. “I can’t even show my face because my skin is white and they’ll spew hate at me”. Oh, STFU, Western Man.

JD Vance is cool with bringing moms into political discourse, so this is a perfect time to remind you that his mom is a junkie nurse who stole her patients' drugs and used them to numb herself to the fact that her son is a massive cunt.

It's interesting that the CBC et al. are telling us that the 25% of Albertans who voted for treason are entitled to my concern and respect, but the 46% of Albertans who voted not to shit on immigrants are apparently entitled to nothing. #Canada

- H. L. Mencken, Baltimore Evening Sun, 26 July 1920

Avi Lewis: "The entire process was unnecessary. Nobody asked for it. Danielle Smith's career has been defined by a slow walk towards separation. All of the questions are designed to stoke division in Alberta, and she is the one who is responsible for that."

A grifting chud dipshit gets absolutely curb-stomped, and then says he doesn't know what to make of a 75/25 referendum result. I look forward to his political knife fight with Danielle Smith. Should be fun. In the meantime, why does Global "News" platform these treasonous pieces of shit?

Kim Jong Un is in hell, jamming with Elvis, Pol Pot, Stalin, Hitler, and Reagan. They're trying to figure out a chord progression with more than three chords, and waiting for Ted Nugent to show up.

Muted: "Elizabeth Holmes". Ah, that's better now. No more weird, morbid fascination with yet another lying, felonious, murderous Oligarch.

If you live in Alberta, please get off your ass and vote today. And if you're a separatist, please get run over by a city bus on your way to the polling station. #Canada #FuckMapleMAGA
