My opponent's school curriculum teaches students that dinosaurs and humans walked the Earth at the same time, and that slave owners treated their slaves well. Illinois needs a governor who lives in reality.
Can some Christian tell me: Except for Santa in the first book, was there incredibly hamfisted Christianity before The Last Battle and the murder of Aslan? (Going from a 3/5 Christianity in the first book to an 11/5 in the last one.
And the religious stuff was sooooo hamfisted. I think a big part of Narnia’s appeal was that it was permitted fantasy during the satanic panic. Too bad for those kids, I had a lot more fun with Prydain.
OTD 2016: The Good Place 1.01 – Everything Is Fine Brilliant series, terrific cast, great concept, packed with ideas and even a funny comedy show. Just a little on the nose to open this in 2016. Or just to watch it in any time to date, increasingly. [Also: ten years?! What the fork?]
this is federally mandated sexual harassment. it's forcing men to disclose personal info for the purposes of identifying supposed sexual failings. it's humiliating and is meant to be humiliating.
NEWS: The Pentagon has announced mandatory low-testosterone screenings for male troops 30 and older, including screening for symptoms such as “reduced libido, loss of spontaneous morning erections, erectile dysfunction,” and other symptoms.

The year is 1997. The President was born in 1946. The year is 2007. The President was born in 1946. The year is 2017. The President was born in 1946. The year is 2027. The President was born in 1946. I'm gonna throw up.
Adding to the staircase of art: the @naidocweek 2020 poster that I saw in Adelaide when I was there last month. Purchased one of the books that was on display there, but I needed that beautiful poster for my wall as well. NAIDOC is an aboriginal rights organization in Australia.
Oh this is hilarious.
Absolutely lost my shit at this co-op mode for Hearts of Iron, which you play as the Army, Navy, Emperor, and Government. All have their own win conditions aside the Government, which lost the game automatically in 1925. docs.google.com/document/d/1...
remembering again when Jake Tapper loudly stuck up for Fox News when the Obama administration moved their chair in the briefing room to the second row
Who will show more commitment to, and solidarity in support of, First Amendment values: members of the White House Correspondents Association, or opening acts for Ed Sheeran?
Going by decade that I've been reading comics: Of the 90s artists, it a close fight between Grummet and Jurgens. McGuiness in the 00s. Gleason in the 10s. Dan Mora in the 20s. Also, I didn't start reading comics till the 90s, but for the 80s it's Bryne.
Who is your favorite Superman artist?
I can't believe that the reporter would dox an operation like this!!! Time to start a months long campaign about how the reporter hates sex workers!! /s

Everyone’s favorite Lantern (according to Guy). See how Guy Gardner’s been handling the ring in the next episode of #Lanterns, this Sunday at 9pm on @hbomax.bsky.social.

Another bad moment in Christian/Jewish relations.
At last, Pope Leo XIV can defeat Superman.
This is simply a responding document rather than an affidavit so there isn't attached evidence, but the summary discusses a *lot* of contemporaneous workplace communication and you don't do that unless you have it to cite when appropriate.
Full filing here. It's long and legally, but if you want the core of their position, it's page 14-15. deadline.com/wp-content/u...

If you point a gun at me, the minute I manage to get to safety I am starting my crusade to destroy your entire life. However, if you accuse me of pointing a gun at you and I did not? Please know the crusade to destroy your life will be so much worse.
Response from Amazon about the recent Criminal suit. Overview of the full filing, though the filing is where the specifics are. I'll link to that in the next post. I'm trying not to editorialise, but it would also amiss not to say it includes a straight "no, the gun thing did not happen."
The answer is Regulation 119, Defense (Emergency) Regulations (1945) “Forfeiture and demolition of property, etc.”, enacted by the Government of Palestine, Sir John Valentine Wistar Shaw on behalf of the High Commissioner of Palestine. Main target: Jewish insurgency groups (Irgun, Stern Gang etc).
"demanded that the homes of the Film-makers' families be demolished" gee I wonder where they got that particular idea for collective punishment from
Turns out, Carol Danvers is actually the 6th Marvel Comics character to be called Captain Marvel. Of which 2 of them were ripoffs of Captain Marvel and the rest are your standard fly,strong, shoots energy beams.

Miracleman is an illegal rebranding/resurrection of Marvelman who was an illegal knockoff of Captain Marvel, who DC comics sued and stopped being published for years as a knockoff of Superman, and can’t legally be called Captain Marvel and is now ‘Shazam’ because Marvel trademarked a character with…
It never ceases to amaze Americans, who are used to a very specific set of correlations between race and politics, that Israel’s “white” Ashkenazis are as a population far less right-wing than its “brown” Mizrahis.
One of the reasons why many MENA Israelis, who comprise over half of its population, are so resentful of Palestinians is because the Muslim world has done even less to repair relations with Jews than Europe has.
New Yorkers, join us at 12 PM on Thurs, Sept 24, at Dag Hammarskjöld Plaza, to protest Netanyahu's UN visit. We call for an immediate, permanent end to the war, accountability for those responsible for war crimes, and a future of justice and peace for Israelis and Palestinians.

A member of the Braves Triple-A affiliate, the Gwinnett Stripers, rescued a kitten from traffic in late August, and the team called on fans to help name the cute kitty … ChipPurr Jones was the runaway answer and the kitten (with the help of treats) threw out the first pitch ☺️ Via @GoStripers
