Human. Greek. Lived in Lesbos (I The island not the slur). I sell tiles, faucets and sanitary ware for a living. Used to photograph. SocDem with a twist.

I got as far as the remains of Building 7 on October 13; I’ve never smelled anything like that. I was there for an hour? Less? The smell was unspeakable, a mixture of things that had never been mixed, it got in my throat, hair, pores, brain. I felt off for days. I didn’t go back for ten years.

More Palestinians have been killed (1,300) since the so-called ceasefire began in Gaza on 10th October 2025 than Israelis were killed on 7th October 2023 - including ten times as many children (300!) as were killed on 10/7. This is what a 'ceasefire' looks like for Palestinians.

Write it on the blackboard a thousand times: they will have to demolish the ballroom, the arch and so forth. They will have to make a show of it. You will get the usual sons of bitches saying we don’t do that in this country. We do now. That is not emotion, it’s politics. To do less is dereliction.

(Carson, in a white suit, brings out Rickles.) (Rickles enters, stands looking at Carson.) RICKLES. Are you the Governor of Guam? (He sits, greets Ed, promises to put in a good word, as the big job will surely to be open soon.) RICKLES. ...like some Chinese yo-yo. Hong Kong Charlie...

JD Vance knowing in his heart tonight that when someday he shuffles off this mortal coil, there won't be an outpouring of emotion about his life, no one will be talking about his kindness or how he overcame his harsh Appalachian upbringing, they'll be talking about him fucking a couch

Decades before Dolly Parton helped fund research supporting Moderna's Covid-19 mRNA vaccine, she raised money for people with HIV and AIDS and joined the 90s "Break the Silence" campaign promoting AIDS awareness, sex education & condom use - at a time when doing so in country music took courage.

I know, or used to know, an attorney who worked on a land deal regarding Dollywood, and she breezed into a meeting with donuts, gave everyone a hug, and said something like, “Let’s get this done, guys!” and breezed out. His precise reaction was the CEO quote. He also said she smelled great.
