Oh come *on* Really? We're saying that stealth is an ongoing repetition of the horse trick? And linking it with "technological mastery" of a bow? Let's just write it off as the Loki/Trickster myth then and abandon any thought of variance or nuance. Grind it down to dust. Link in the alt text

"In The Odyssey, Odysseus repeatedly finds new ways to reenact his most famous trick of hiding inside the horse (an assumed backstory not described in the main narrative). He hides in the care of Calypso (whose name suggests “hiding”), beneath the name of No Man, under the sheep of Polyphemus, and in the guise of an old beggar. Eventually, he replicates his triumph at Troy in his own house by technological mastery of another trick involving a wooden weapon (this time, his bow). "

Susan Collins announcing she'll vote against a controversial nominee is basically the moment it becomes clear that nominee will be confirmed. It means Thune has enough votes to confirm, and thus, Collins gets a pass to look independent.

“I will not stand beside someone who has allowed distinctly anti-American sentiment to enter our public dialogue.”—Rep. Hillary Scholten, D-Mich. So much for "vote blue no matter who." Wild how Stevens took $60M in dark money from a foreign lobby, but its the brown guy Scholten calls anti-American

Thank you, Tim, but also even if every single person _was_ "involved in narcotrafficking", not only is that not a capital offense, there is no offense, capital or otherwise, for which a person can legally be killed without trial or even charge

The US military’s strikes on alleged drug boats have likely illegally killed “individuals who are not involved in narcotrafficking,” Sen. Tim Kaine told the White House, following “a careful review” of classified information he has seen so far.

Yes, this is a victory for the freaks who are convinced that people on food stamps are just lazy and must be motivated to work by the fear of starvation. If those people are so desperate that they'll do anything, so much the better.

"Like you, this person has come here to blot out the very idea of the place they left behind. The last thing either one of you needs right now is the reminder of how lost you are, both in an unprecedented, historic sense, and also in the center of this lovely, cobblestoned town."

The In-N-Out Burger shooter comes from a family immersed in Trump propaganda. The shooter loved General Flynn, Elon Musk, and RFK Jr. He was pro-natalist and wanted to join ICE, but didn't have a college degree.

The shooter at the In-N-Out Burger in Twin Falls, Idaho that killed 3 people and injured 2 people is a Republican, white male. Shocked.

For the past five months the only refugees the USA has accepted are white South Africans fleeing equality & safety meanwhile they are disappearing or strapping ankle monitors on any Haitian they can get ahold of. It needs to be understood how thoroughly connected these two things are.

Gill: All 100 senators last week passed a non-binding resolution condemning any pardon for Ghislaine Maxwell. They're simultaneously considering confirming the guy who met with her and moved her to a low-security facility as the top cop in the United States. That is so insane to me.

🚨BREAKING: Missouri voters defeated a GOP bid to limit their ability to amend the state constitution. The measure was the GOP's attempt to diminish the power of voters who’ve used citizen initiatives to expand Medicaid and protect abortion access.

Missouri voters reject ballot measure limiting their power to amend state constitution

Notably, the proposed amendment would not have affected constitutional amendments that the legislature put on the ballot. State lawmakers only wanted to make it harder to pass a voter-led measure,…
