So Mar a Lago was the perfume counter at Horne’s, and the island was One Eye Jack’s?

I love lord of the rings, and I also love Liv Tyler, but wouldn’t it have been great if Sade Adu had played Arwen?

Rebecca R Helm@rebeccarhelm.bsky.social · 11mo agoI get that the news cycle is packed right now, but I just heard from a colleague at the Smithsonian that this is fully a GIANT SQUID BEING EATEN BY A SPERM WHALE and it’s possibly the first ever confirmed video according to a friend at NOAA 10 YEAR OLD ME IS LOSING HER MIND (a thread 🧵)

The secretary of homeland security carried 3k in cash? The secretary of homeland security is a drug dealer and/or a paranoid grandpa?
There are 21 year olds who are alive today who don't have any significant memories of life and politics pre-Trump. There are also 30 year olds alive today who have no memory of life and politics pre war on terror. We literally have generations of youth who have normalized madness.
