Everything about Once Upon a Time is exquisite. And Arcade Fire ain’t half bad.
this is explicitly genocidal
Well, gas is expensive, and food is expensive, and we’re doing a war nobody wants, but at least there are no jobs
I’m ordering it today, Brian.
Attributed to Robert E Lee: “It is well that war is so terrible – otherwise we should grow too fond of it.”
Warmongers like Hegseth are fond of war being hell.
Israeli violence in the West Bank isn't as dramatic as in Gaza, but it is methodical, durable, and sometimes harder to understand. Here’s how Israel is using settler terror, financial policies, and legal tactics to suffocate Palestinian life.

If we criminalized idiocy, most state legislators would be jailed.
@variety.com Did y’all lose the Post button on y’alls account?
Just no. Build it at Mar-a-largo.
@ajcampbellma.bsky.social Welcome!
Trump should be under a jail.
Statement from Oscar-winning director Hamdan Ballal: This afternoon, nearly a year after we won the Oscar, the same settler who attacked me shortly after l returned from Los Angeles-Shem Tov Lusky-again led an attack against my home and my family. Four of my family members are currently arrested and one is in the hospital. I invite all journalists and diplomats to come visit me and my family this Tuesday, February 17, to hear about how the situation has gotten worse in the year since we won the Oscar, as it has across the West Bank. Email me to coordinate your visit: hamdanalhrane90@gmail.com Two weeks ago we managed to get a decision from the Israeli court that the area around my home is closed to non-residents, but the settlers break that order and still come with their flocks almost every day. We call the police, they do nothing. The army comes, they do nothing. Today, Shem Tov Lusky-the settler who attacked me in my home shortly after I won the Oscar last year-came with his flock to my home. My brother called the police to report the incursion. The army came first and immediately raided our house, attacking everyone inside. Then they arrested two of my brothers, a nephew, and cousin. Another brother was badly injured and is now in the hospital. The Israeli court decision was supposed to make things a bit quieter for us. But the opposite has been true. The settlers have ramped up their harassment and the Israeli authorities have done nothing to enforce the decision, and today they joined the settlers in the attack. 8 hours ago
From Hamdan Ballal, co-director of last year’s Oscar-winning documentary “No Other Land.” This is happening now.
Private equity in the mix, of course.
What is it with the proliferation of mega car wash chains? There are now several within a few minutes of us.
Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

that stage of society when school children share the bond of having endured the camps together
No one in this administration has the brains God gave a bag of paver sand.

@rianjohnson.bsky.social From a former pastor and sometime theologian, top ranking to Wake Up Dead Man. Deep appreciation for your exploration of faith, doubt, skepticism, and Jesus.
It's not in this article but the government asserts that the sandwich was thrown at "point blank range", which implies subway sandwiches have defined effective weapon ranges of varying lethality, and I would like to see the government's chart of these ranges.
If you have HBO Max, you must watch The Alabama Solution, a devastating indictment if the state’s, and the US, legal system.
Do what?
It’s how America has worked for years, tbh. It’s why Guantanamo was full.

And Curtis Yarvin for Vance, most likely for Orr.
My 89-year-old dad with dementia just used jingoistic correctly (“Putin is too jingoistic”) so now Imma drink 4 glasses of chocolate milk a day like Dad does.
I’m afraid this is far too late. They all should have done it decades ago.
