Sure, if the Confederacy abolished slavery and ended up more democratic and free then the Union.

This is a stupid apology.

I love that movie so much.

Yeah, I suspect he's either a pro troll or just a good old fashioned Internet malcontent who enjoys picking silly fights.

screenshot of press release from four nations with their logos: Tla’amin Nation; Homalco Nation; K'ómoks Nation; Klahoose Nation. March 11, 2026 Chiefs from four First Nations communities are urging the public to please approach Aaron Gunn with no caution whatsoever. He is completely harmless, though momentarily unsettled by the alarming possibility that someone might acknowledge the land before a meeting. Yesterday on social media, the MP appeared to crash out and demand to speak to the manager of land acknowledgements, a position that observers confirm does not exist. Chiefs whose territories make up the riding had two words for the MP - Chillax, Bud. Land acknowledgements have never seized private property, cancelled a mortgage, repossessed a pickup truck, or altered a single title deed anywhere in Canada. They are simply people recognizing the history of the place where they are standing. No one is going anywhere. Canada will survive the brief moment of honesty. Until then, Chiefs across the region continue to reassure the public that land acknowledgements have not, to date, resulted in any land back.

I think these chiefs must be readers of @theeagleist.bsky.social.

This can't be, I was told we got rid of wokeness which is the only thing that prevents a country from winning a war

Two Live Nation Entertainment Inc. executives bragged about the high fees the company charges fans at its venues, joking in internal messages that the company is "robbing them blind" and that "these people are so stupid" that "I almost feel bad taking advantage of them." In a series of chats from 2022, Ben Baker and Jeff Weinhold, two regional directors of ticketing for Live Nation amphitheaters, boasted about their ability to raise so-called "ancillary fees" - like parking, lawn chair rentals and VIP access - and still get concertgoers to pay for them. In one exchange, Weinhold gloated about raising VIP parking costs at a Virginia concert venue to $250. "These people are so stupid. I almost feel bad taking advantage of them," Baker wrote, adding later, "I gouge them on ancil prices."

Oh.

Fitzcarraldo II: Fitzcarraldoer

Werner Herzog has the chance to make one helluva movie.

y'all should familiarize yourself with what the Average American is consuming entertainment-wise!

I've never published a book at all. This doesn't seem to me to disqualify me from having an opinion about what Naomi Wolf is currently likely to be best known for, or to have much of anything to do with anything, really.

At this point, at least. At one point she was known as the author of a popular work of feminism, but that was like 30 years or so ago.

Yes, one of the people I was referring to posted something on social media to which you and others are taking exception. Which you have every right to do, of course, but it doesn't seem like a worthwhile expenditure of effort to me.

Are you sure you're not thinking of Naomi Klein? Naomi Wolf is probably better globally known for being a ridiculous crank than anything else.

I think a woman can wear what she wants in her own home no matter what a racist robot has to say about it

We're talking about people whose lives are being turned upside down, who are literally, factually being outlawed, who have every rational reason to be terrified and furious. Personally, I'm more than willing to cut them copious slack.

Or they're just frustrated and frightened and venting and don't take it personally. Oppressed people can be grouchy sometimes.

right now, showing public support for trans people, for immigrants, and for abortion access is both 1) incredibly important and 2) punk as fuck.

Ladies and gentlemen, the meritocracy

Full disclosure: I google translated. Much as I would love to be able to read and speak Chinese, I don't.

Ahhhh, when I was a kid our exchange was IV(Ivanhoe)7!

Also, yes, that was and still is hilarious, well done preserving it for posterity.

Centcom commander touts use of AI in fight against Iran during Operation Epic Fury AI tools have helped the U.S. military during Operation Epic Fury against Iran, according to the commander overseeing the war effort.

I find it odd that the US is touting the use of AI in Iran AND blaming a "targeting error" for bombing the shit out of a girls' school, and no one in the media seems to be asking the obvious question.

You can go back and compare how 🇦🇫 was covered, & it’s simply not remotely the same right now, even though the failure & incompetence is orders of magnitude beyond even the worst caricature of Biden’s policies:

Again:

It is interesting to me* how this total military, geopolitical, & economic omnishambles is not being covered in the press with remotely the same fierce EPIC DISASTROUS FAILURE urgency that Joe Biden’s not 100% surgically clean withdrawal from 🇦🇫 was covered 🤔

[*It is not remotely interesting to me]

Bottom line from the last 6 years of COVID research : If you’ve got blood vessels, you’d be wise to avoid additional infections.

Now is a great time to normalize wearing a respirator. Might feel awkward at first, but every person who does makes it easier for others to follow. Be a leader. 😷

I don't remember it, but having read your description, my soul thirsts for it.

Bring back Glider Pro pls

Does anyone else remember the 1990s computer game where you are a paper airplane flying peacefully through a beautiful side-scroll house
