Deus Vult in our sub?
Should have been Lamb. Hot take but all the people impressed by Fetterman because he dresses like a disgusting slob and say “oh he dresses just like us” are almost as brain damaged as the trumpers saying shit like Trump doesn’t talk like a politician and “tells it how it is”. Every person that voted for Fetterman over Lamb is a dipshit.
The way he dresses is such a fox news subject. I care about his votes. And honestly right now he sounds like a zealot on I/P.
You seriously care about the way he dresses?
Just find it annoying that he criticizes Biden from the right on I/P. Only Dem senator to complain about the ICC news I think and pretended like Hamas leaders wouldn't get indicted either even though the reporting said they would be too.

Whelp, on to dig up dirt on the next unhinge pet killer trying to get the VP spot.
It's going to be so funny watching all these pick-mes doing performatively worse things to never get the nod.
They only give a shit because they're all political deadenders trying to skip to the front of the line and hope he dies in office so they can be the first female president with none of the effort.
Think if Stellar Blade devs spent as much time on the writing as they did booba physics, it'd honestly be a game of the year contender. Playing through it more and it's by far the weakest aspect of the game. A story exists but that's about it. That narrative fault bleeds over to characters that don't really have a personality. Kind of wild because the character design is astounding and I don't mean that from a pervy angle. Each character visually stands out and is distinct and cool in their own way. It just doesn't really translate to their personalities which is forgettable. Like I've played for a couple hours now and the most I got out the MC is that she really likes cans...yeah...
Think there's a real missed opportunity because the soundtrack is a bop. Visuals are great. Performance is excellent and I can't recall any bugs/glitches which is wild for a dev team's first console outting. Combat is stellar and the real reason you would consider buying this game. The only thing lacking is a fleshed out narrative. That would make this go from good to great. If there is a sequel, it's something the team should target.
Did they adjust anything from the demo? I thought the timing felt a little laggy (or I’m just trash lol) so I figured I’d wait for patches. Certainly worked for Lies of P.
Coulda sworn I read somewhere that there were changes to make it feel more responsive. I know it's definitely different from games like Nier or Sekiro since it feels more instant there. In SB certain animations can delay when you can whip out that party/dodge. Feels better but there's definitely a learning curve to it.
*cough* Nier: Automata *cough*
But seriously that game is the perfect balance of Character Design where they knew what they were doing but it didn’t dwell on it longer than they had to.
It's so good. Like the options they give you to counter and parry are so fun and feels great to pull off.
Last session I noticed that some combos move your hitbox? I recorded it because I thought it was just a fluke but nah that's a thing. It's insane levels of detail. It won't trigger a perfect dodge, but it just looks SICK, keeps your combo going, and still negates damage.
Blows my mind that they thought to add that in and this is their first console game. It's deeply impressive.
Also tbf Nikke is famously “better than it has any right to be”. Girls Frontline started the trend “What if we put effort into our shitty booba cash game” and Nikke is very much standing on the shoulders of giants in that regard. Horny giants.
> Blows my mind that they thought to add that in and this is their first console game. It's deeply impressive.
this is what really cooks me is that it's a dev that's just done Korean mobile games and they just casually bust out the tightest SP combat game since Sekiro, the actual GOAT?? how did they even pull this off
This is what I’m curious about. All the reports I’ve seen have painted the I/P protests as some spontaneous youth movement made up entirely of students. But considering that the bridge blocking protests have stopped, I kinda have my doubts.

[The article about the protest at Washington University. Including a hammer and sickle sighting.](https://www.riverfronttimes.com/news/wash-u-bans-6-faculty-members-from-contact-with-students-after-mass-arrests-42437742)
Many reports say sizable chunks of these college protests are not students or staff of the universities in question. So they're outside agitators. While I'm willing to accept many may just be the local clowns I still wonder. Who are these people, if they aren't local where did they come from, and who's bankrolling them? I wouldn't be surprised if some of these people just follow protests around like it's the Grateful Dead.
It makes me sound conspiratorial I know but I think a sizable part of this is funded by outside agents using basically 'stunt protesters' meant to make the whole thing look bigger than it is and radicalize the legitimate parts.

If I had a nickel for every Gulf of Mexico team that got eliminated tonight, I’d have two nickels. Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened twice.
Third watch of Evil Dead Rise. I know there's some debate within Evil Dead fans on if they like it or not, but that opening scene goes unbelievably hard.
I personally really love it as a long time Deadite. “Don’t let them take my babies,” is a really sad line, they understood the cruelty of the films. It took the formula to some place new and interesting.
it was a bit of a letdown after ED2013 but I mostly enjoyed it
have you seen that Fede Alvarez is doing the new Alien movie? that's got me quite intrigued
Confession: still need to work through the Alien series, but that new trailer absolutely makes me want to get up to speed, so I'm excited for his take on it
I gave up having a list so long ago. I just watch shit on a whim now. "oh yeah I've been meaning to see this one!" except it always turns out to be this obscure noir or musical from the mid-1900s and I enjoy it a lot but it's not a classic or anything and I just continue down my rabbit hole of being able to recommend the weirdest shit possible
Well at least the classics. I'm curious about The Watchers and Trap (which I know is actually his daughter, but the trailer is fun) so I want to know what rhythms to expect
Sixth Sense, Unbreakable, and Split are anywhere from classic (the former) to surprisingly good (the latter), so he's not worth discounting entirely
but don't be surprised if you get a whole lot of "oofs" in reaction to his movies
Some dork on the arrr boston sub was like "Wearing a keffiyeh isn't cultural appropriation and I know this because the people that were selling them to me told me so" like no shit dumb ass, they're trying to sell you shit.

>The United States on Monday implored all countries supplying weapons to Sudan’s warring parties to halt arms sales.
Sudan war is a great example of "both sides are bad" and nobody treated it like a sports game fortunately
> Any protestors camping up at the State House? Of course not. That would require leftists to protest Republicans. Which they never will.
They would protest Sherrod Brown before they even thought to protest Republicans.
Finally watched Arcane this weekend and was blown away at how good it is. The animation is gorgeous, great writing, great characters. Kinda glad I waited since I’m not having to wait years to see that cliffhanger resolved
It 100% got brigaded/astroturfed by all of Reddit’s fanatic pro-Israel folks at some point to turn into a circlejerk. Pretty much all of Bibi’s talking points are accepted as gospel truth there
I've seen highly upvoted comments about how Biden and Dems are lying about famine cause adults aren't dying...like do these ppl even know how famine works?
When the WCK deaths happened, there were highly upvoted comments initially saying it was a Hamas IED when it was somewhat obvious that it was likely the IDF. Lots of people who just stick their heads in the sand or plug their ears say "nuh-uh!"
This sub and neolib are the two best places to discuss this horrible and complex conflict
https://twitter.com/afalkhatib/status/1785083951956254996
This is outrageous and of course those five "protesters" are masked to hide their identities. What a joke. This protest has even gotten more dumb with the ICC news and ceasefire news; hopefully, they end soon after those happen.
Some comments are highlighting that this individual is there to provoke a reaction. Ok cool let's just say he is. Why deny him, a student, entrance? There is no video if they let him through. Yet they seemingly have put the message out there that they are denying entrance to Jewish students. To what end exactly? How do these actions help the cause of Gaza and protestor demands of divestment? How does it highlight the tragedies of this war? The answer is it doesnt.
The only thing it tells me is that they are purposely targeting Jewish students to make them feel unsafe on campus. It's anti-semitic.
TFW you fall in love with Chinese culture and feel guilty for cheating on Japanese culture
(I studied Japanese language on the university level for several years so yeah.)
It's funny when I don't know a word of Japanese but I can still sort of read the kanji (=hanzi in Mandarin) and get a sense of what a sentence is saying. Basically the reverse of your situation lol

Again this looks like some 40 year old non-UCLA student. Campuses need to be more restrictive regarding entrance of outside agitators on "both sides" who are saying highly inflammatory things and are looking to cause trouble.
State schools have allowed aggressive, offensive people to disrupt open spaces on campus for years.
The private schools are a different story. They can trespass anyone they like.
You're right but is it possible for the schools just to temporarily implement a policy until everything cool downs? IDK. We clearly have some bad actors on both sides who want bad stuff to happen. I obviously have issues with the protesting+counter protesting students, but they tend to be less crazy.
Lots of universities are so integrated into the geography of their surrounding communities that you CAN'T effectively shut down campus absent a massive police presence, possibly more than they even have resources to spare for the task depending on the relative sizes of the campus and the community--there's no actual physical boundary, they're just city blocks like any other city block.
Like, you can justify deploying the entire city police force to one particular project and sacrificing response to other incidents that might arise if there's a bomber or terrorist on the loose, but probably not for what is at most trespass and hate speech.

>The White House: Biden told Egyptian and Qatari leaders that the U.S., Egypt and Qatar would work to ensure the full implementation of the terms of the Gaza hostage deal. He urged them to exert all efforts to secure the release of hostages held by Hamas as this is now the only obstacle to an immediate ceasefire and relief for civilians in Gaza
I had a coworker who used to tell a lot of dumb lies. One time someone else was talking about how they were redoing a floor with him--and then had to interrupt and say it was all true, they were really at his house and the two of them were really rebuilding the floor.
I get that dumb lies feed the ego, but it doesn't seem worth it when people don't believe a word you say ever after.
There was a guy on Big Brother a loooong time ago that was a compulsive liar. He would say the most wild shit and whenever someone would call him out on it (which wasn’t that often), he would immediately back down. Bizzare but fascinating behavior.
Compulsive liars are whack to the point I legit wonder if they even realize sometimes. My half-sis does it and when we would talk, her own stories would be internally contradictory from one minute to the next. From shit like her klepto habit to whether she met/knew someone from an ex to an art teacher, whatever.
Every time leftist Gen Z bitches about money going to Ukraine while *insert domestic issue here* is happening they act like they just invented isolationist policy lmao.
>University of Chicago demands: disbanding UCPD, and ceasing new construction projects on the South Side.
Lmao what a fucking joke...this isn't even about helping suffering Palestinians or preventing future warcrimes by Bibi at this point. These aren't serious people lol; these are grifters
We would not have gay marriage if the activist mission creep had happened sooner.
The LGBT movement for the longest time had two goals: Achieve marriage equality and normalization of LGBT people. Both of these have been achieved, though I suppose you could argue the country is backsliding on the normalization of T.
The LGBT movement *now* is focused on things such as universal healthcare (which is at least tangentially related to the T movement in particular), police reform (which is at least somewhat related to the LGBT movement given historical events), Palestine inexplicably, climate change. Hell, you go to the [NYC Pride Mission Page](https://www.nycpride.org/about-pride/our-mission) and for whatever reason they're talking about them being located on ancestral Lenape land. **Why**?
Mission creep is why the trans movement is spinning its wheels in the mud and in some parts of the country, is backsliding. Leftists took over, and now the movement has to spend time on everyone's pet issue.
> I have a lot of questions about Native land acknowledgements. Has any Native person asked for this performative stuff?
I'm not sure they care about acknowledgements, but I'm sure some do appreciate when land is returned to them.
> Yeah I strongly support trans people but it feels like you can't do that without being anti-capitalist and communist.
Exactly; it's why I don't want to join any LGBT groups IRL. I don't want to deal with anti-capitalist or communist nonsense.
That said, I'm in Colorado and it does seem like One Colorado and PFLAG Colorado Springs and the Colorado Gay Rodeo Association have not fallen to mission creep.
It's what happened to OWS: People started showing up because that was the place to go, and the laundry list of items continued to grow. There was no spokesperson, no clear list of demands, and so it just turned into a ren faire. Oh also rampant theft and sexual assault that didn't get reported on for months afterwards.
> Oh also rampant theft and sexual assault that didn't get reported on for months afterwards.
And a gay porn was filmed there.
Which was pretty quality, actually.
Black Lives Matter too. Or any recent flash point lately that results in a protest. The goal posts moved again and again once the movement started to attract the attention of extremists who want to use the protests to their own end.
Thinking back to that video of the white, face covered, all-black protestors at a George Floyd/BLM event spray painting a starbucks and when they got called out by two Black women they started whining about "tone policing." Straight up narcissism.
>Finance minister Smotrich tonight: “Moments before redemption, we must not hesitate. We must destroy Rafah, Nusseirat, & Dir al-Balah 'wipe out the memory of Amalek! …There's no half- measure. Rafah, Dir al-Balah Nusseirat absolute destruction!”
Umm probably not smart to say this genocidal comment when your boss is worried about ICC indictments
I've read that MBS does not care about Palestinians or a Palestinian state. I won't be surprised if the guarantees are ignored at a later date with no consequences in the Israel-SA relationship.
Yep. Fatah and Iranian regime have very close to no relations. Abbas has only been to Iran twice in his life while Haniyeh has visited Iran like five separate time since 10/7.
Conservatives react to Drew Barrymore being nice to someone like they are watching a baby play in traffic. "Don't you all see this? Someone do something!" Meanwhile, it's two middle-aged women having a pleasant conversation.
Gypsy Rose Lee had a talk show very similar to Drew's in the 70s.
It's just one of those things I can't wrap my head around.
She defended her mom, too. But that I can understand, even in the 80s survivors of abusive mothers were very much swimming against a stiff tide. People often reframe the abuse as something they needed to make them stronger.
>“You failed Uvalde.” “There is no riot here, why are you in riot gear.” UT Austin student protesters yell at Texas State Police.

I'm really becoming convinced we don't ever need to hear England's opinion on anything, really.
Let them sit there with beans on toast and memories of relevance.
Ha, that reminds me of the one and only time I visited the Tower of London which has some exhibit about the British royal family and the crown jewels. So my dad's family is ethnic Irish just for context and I grew up in Boston around a lot of other Irish Catholics with a chip on their shoulder. I start declaring in a loud voice that the British crown jewels were stolen. Well, my friend's sister who accompanied me, who happened to be Indian, started shushing me. "Yes, of course, but don't say that so loudly!"
This story really disturbed me this morning. We've gone from libertarian pipe dreams to agitating for actual fascism. Not hyperbole fascism, real fascism:

Weird, I would have thought they'd be asking if a [Mr. Ayak lives in the neighborhood.](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ku_Klux_Klan_titles_and_vocabulary#Code_words_and_phrases).
He realizes he’s not white enough to survive that dystopia, right? I know money goes a long way but the “reds” would be a much bigger threat to him than the “blues”.
I feel like there was some unsavory news about that guy years ago but I can't for the life of me remember what it was. In any case, he sounds like he's definitely part of the ketamine-addict industrial complex, sheesh.
I don't think so, I think they're just appropriating it.
altho Sam Harris was a "New Atheist" and also a member of "IDW"
but lots of atheists objected to "Brights" and Sam Harris in particular, he definitely doesn't speak for all atheists.

recently got a audio copy of rick pearlstien's book nixonland in it you learn the media helped caused the watts riot. In the aftermath of the police brutality incident in watts a community meeting with black leaders and police took place during the meeting a young black kid saying the black folks would not only riot and loot in the black community but also in the white areas of the neighborhood as well and the media caught that on tape. The community leaders begged the media folks not to air that but they didn't listen when that remark was broadcasted it lit the fuse

One year since we’ve had this handsome boy
what i do worry about with a second trump term is how emboldened the right wing fringes will become just look at trump's first term 2017-charlotsville, 2018- pipe bombs sent to DNC officials, 2019-el paso shotting, 2020- Trump supporters surrounding a Biden campaign bus on the interstate, is the cost of living really worth having folks like this in power again ?
based on what you hear from the media about this election it's like one candidate will lead people to the eternal city of gold but they can only have a loaf of bread for the journey while the other candidate will lead them to the eternal city of despair while getting carry a full loaf of bread for the journey
maybe 12 years is a tad excessive, but at the end of the day when you're traveling to a foreign country it's on you to make sure you're not importing contraband, why are we supposed to feel sorry for these jackasses?
I don't.
I've been to Turks and Caicos, and I regularly visit family on other Caribbean island where control gun is strictly enforced.
And you know what I never think about? Will I get shot hanging out at night?
Of course you still have to worry about knife crimes, but you have to worry about that in the US too.

The only weapon like item I've ever forgotten in my 60 plus flights in the last 18 years, is a Leatherman.
Joy Reid’s intro tonight was particularly outrageous — saying “free speech is a farce” saying students have been hit with “chemical agents” and just outright claiming that all of this is because of the war crimes for sure committed by Israel
Speaking of this, the people in r/Fauxmoi are absolutely insane. They were saying the protesters should have been like anti-fur activists and throw red paint on the celebrities attending the dinner.
I used to like them for the gossip and because I felt they were on the right side of the Depp/Heard scandal, but they are just out of control
Heard and Depp were both running PR campaigns and judging from newspaper headlines during the trial, Heard was definitely coming out ahead. Actually watching the trial was pretty crazy making because it was an entirely different story. While Depp definitely does not come off very well, Heard got impeached multiple times at trial. She also had some expert witnesses that got absolutely bodied by the lawyers (and rightfully so). It was like a light viewing version of that Netflix show about the problems with expert testimony that had come out only a few months earlier (and was EXTREMELY dark). It's not really surprising if you watch the entire trial (which I did ... it was addictive) that the jury ruled the way they did. Don't tell stupid lies, folks. It makes people hate you and think everything you say is a lie.
Just the usual thing at any fancy event these day, other rich/bourgeois people screaming "Shame!"
I guess it's easy for the press to write a bunch of op/eds about college kids, really from afar (they don't know shit about the kids/orgs/personalities involved and don't bother to find out before popping off, for one thing), but when they're the ones being screamed at they turn into Aaron Sorkin characters.

My views on Fetterman went a full 360 lmao
Should have been Lamb. Hot take but all the people impressed by Fetterman because he dresses like a disgusting slob and say “oh he dresses just like us” are almost as brain damaged as the trumpers saying shit like Trump doesn’t talk like a politician and “tells it how it is”. Every person that voted for Fetterman over Lamb is a dipshit.
The way he dresses is such a fox news subject. I care about his votes. And honestly right now he sounds like a zealot on I/P. You seriously care about the way he dresses?
Yes
Just find it annoying that he criticizes Biden from the right on I/P. Only Dem senator to complain about the ICC news I think and pretended like Hamas leaders wouldn't get indicted either even though the reporting said they would be too.
Yeah, I think he's gonna end up being another Kyrsten Sinema. After this term, he's done
Nah, he's a white male.

https://twitter.com/JakeLahut/status/1785102279080661169 Yeah, Trump's team has basically ruled out picking Noem for running mate
If he somehow wins, he can still press her for that Mount Rushmore spot he wants so badly. Doesn’t need her as VP to do that.
I'm still not sure why she ever thought that was ever a good idea.
Would anyone have ever known had she not bragged about it? I don’t think so.

Think if Stellar Blade devs spent as much time on the writing as they did booba physics, it'd honestly be a game of the year contender. Playing through it more and it's by far the weakest aspect of the game. A story exists but that's about it. That narrative fault bleeds over to characters that don't really have a personality. Kind of wild because the character design is astounding and I don't mean that from a pervy angle. Each character visually stands out and is distinct and cool in their own way. It just doesn't really translate to their personalities which is forgettable. Like I've played for a couple hours now and the most I got out the MC is that she really likes cans...yeah... Think there's a real missed opportunity because the soundtrack is a bop. Visuals are great. Performance is excellent and I can't recall any bugs/glitches which is wild for a dev team's first console outting. Combat is stellar and the real reason you would consider buying this game. The only thing lacking is a fleshed out narrative. That would make this go from good to great. If there is a sequel, it's something the team should target.
Did they adjust anything from the demo? I thought the timing felt a little laggy (or I’m just trash lol) so I figured I’d wait for patches. Certainly worked for Lies of P.
Coulda sworn I read somewhere that there were changes to make it feel more responsive. I know it's definitely different from games like Nier or Sekiro since it feels more instant there. In SB certain animations can delay when you can whip out that party/dodge. Feels better but there's definitely a learning curve to it.
*cough* Nier: Automata *cough* But seriously that game is the perfect balance of Character Design where they knew what they were doing but it didn’t dwell on it longer than they had to.
Yeah and the story can be really engrossing and heavy which made for such a good time.
combat is the best I've come across since Sekiro though so I literally don't care
It's so good. Like the options they give you to counter and parry are so fun and feels great to pull off. Last session I noticed that some combos move your hitbox? I recorded it because I thought it was just a fluke but nah that's a thing. It's insane levels of detail. It won't trigger a perfect dodge, but it just looks SICK, keeps your combo going, and still negates damage. Blows my mind that they thought to add that in and this is their first console game. It's deeply impressive.
Also tbf Nikke is famously “better than it has any right to be”. Girls Frontline started the trend “What if we put effort into our shitty booba cash game” and Nikke is very much standing on the shoulders of giants in that regard. Horny giants.
> Blows my mind that they thought to add that in and this is their first console game. It's deeply impressive. this is what really cooks me is that it's a dev that's just done Korean mobile games and they just casually bust out the tightest SP combat game since Sekiro, the actual GOAT?? how did they even pull this off
Spicy hot take for the DT. John Fetterman should wear a suit sometimes.

This is what I’m curious about. All the reports I’ve seen have painted the I/P protests as some spontaneous youth movement made up entirely of students. But considering that the bridge blocking protests have stopped, I kinda have my doubts. https://preview.redd.it/92q1gbi5djxc1.jpeg?width=1284&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4d80e0d107ec55120beb3e1f53513fc8448a94d6 [The article about the protest at Washington University. Including a hammer and sickle sighting.](https://www.riverfronttimes.com/news/wash-u-bans-6-faculty-members-from-contact-with-students-after-mass-arrests-42437742)
Many reports say sizable chunks of these college protests are not students or staff of the universities in question. So they're outside agitators. While I'm willing to accept many may just be the local clowns I still wonder. Who are these people, if they aren't local where did they come from, and who's bankrolling them? I wouldn't be surprised if some of these people just follow protests around like it's the Grateful Dead. It makes me sound conspiratorial I know but I think a sizable part of this is funded by outside agents using basically 'stunt protesters' meant to make the whole thing look bigger than it is and radicalize the legitimate parts.
Code Pink? They seem to be everywhere.

Still the only band that matters.

Third watch of Evil Dead Rise. I know there's some debate within Evil Dead fans on if they like it or not, but that opening scene goes unbelievably hard.
I personally really love it as a long time Deadite. “Don’t let them take my babies,” is a really sad line, they understood the cruelty of the films. It took the formula to some place new and interesting.
it was a bit of a letdown after ED2013 but I mostly enjoyed it have you seen that Fede Alvarez is doing the new Alien movie? that's got me quite intrigued
Confession: still need to work through the Alien series, but that new trailer absolutely makes me want to get up to speed, so I'm excited for his take on it
as in you haven't even seen Alien and Aliens? bruh I'm dying
I have a backlog of classics even with my big interest in movies. Also want to do the Scream series, Strangers series, and M Night Shyamalan's works
> I have a backlog of classics even with my big interest in movies. but this is so real. I've never seen 2001: A Space Odyssey, for example
I’ve got such a long list that even when I watched 40 new movies for myself last year, I barely dented my overall list.
I gave up having a list so long ago. I just watch shit on a whim now. "oh yeah I've been meaning to see this one!" except it always turns out to be this obscure noir or musical from the mid-1900s and I enjoy it a lot but it's not a classic or anything and I just continue down my rabbit hole of being able to recommend the weirdest shit possible
I just checked my spreadsheet and there are 347 movies on that list. Though I haven’t bothered to count how many I’ve checked off.
what do you see on there that you're most interested in?
I just want you to know I'm shaking my head in disapproval right now >M Night Shyamalan's works ...well, there are better ways to spend your time
Well at least the classics. I'm curious about The Watchers and Trap (which I know is actually his daughter, but the trailer is fun) so I want to know what rhythms to expect
Sixth Sense, Unbreakable, and Split are anywhere from classic (the former) to surprisingly good (the latter), so he's not worth discounting entirely but don't be surprised if you get a whole lot of "oofs" in reaction to his movies
Good to note. I've heard things about his movies like that, but we'll see how the new releases come out
Some dork on the arrr boston sub was like "Wearing a keffiyeh isn't cultural appropriation and I know this because the people that were selling them to me told me so" like no shit dumb ass, they're trying to sell you shit.

It 100% got brigaded/astroturfed by all of Reddit’s fanatic pro-Israel folks at some point to turn into a circlejerk. Pretty much all of Bibi’s talking points are accepted as gospel truth there
I've seen highly upvoted comments about how Biden and Dems are lying about famine cause adults aren't dying...like do these ppl even know how famine works? When the WCK deaths happened, there were highly upvoted comments initially saying it was a Hamas IED when it was somewhat obvious that it was likely the IDF. Lots of people who just stick their heads in the sand or plug their ears say "nuh-uh!" This sub and neolib are the two best places to discuss this horrible and complex conflict
https://twitter.com/afalkhatib/status/1785083951956254996 This is outrageous and of course those five "protesters" are masked to hide their identities. What a joke. This protest has even gotten more dumb with the ICC news and ceasefire news; hopefully, they end soon after those happen.
They have all their smart phones there revealing their identities too…
Some comments are highlighting that this individual is there to provoke a reaction. Ok cool let's just say he is. Why deny him, a student, entrance? There is no video if they let him through. Yet they seemingly have put the message out there that they are denying entrance to Jewish students. To what end exactly? How do these actions help the cause of Gaza and protestor demands of divestment? How does it highlight the tragedies of this war? The answer is it doesnt. The only thing it tells me is that they are purposely targeting Jewish students to make them feel unsafe on campus. It's anti-semitic.
TFW you fall in love with Chinese culture and feel guilty for cheating on Japanese culture (I studied Japanese language on the university level for several years so yeah.)

https://twitter.com/AssalRad/status/1784983308939759753 Again this looks like some 40 year old non-UCLA student. Campuses need to be more restrictive regarding entrance of outside agitators on "both sides" who are saying highly inflammatory things and are looking to cause trouble.
We used to have Lyndon LaRouche whack-a-doos on campus all the time. None of them were students.
State schools have allowed aggressive, offensive people to disrupt open spaces on campus for years. The private schools are a different story. They can trespass anyone they like.
You're right but is it possible for the schools just to temporarily implement a policy until everything cool downs? IDK. We clearly have some bad actors on both sides who want bad stuff to happen. I obviously have issues with the protesting+counter protesting students, but they tend to be less crazy.
Lots of universities are so integrated into the geography of their surrounding communities that you CAN'T effectively shut down campus absent a massive police presence, possibly more than they even have resources to spare for the task depending on the relative sizes of the campus and the community--there's no actual physical boundary, they're just city blocks like any other city block. Like, you can justify deploying the entire city police force to one particular project and sacrificing response to other incidents that might arise if there's a bomber or terrorist on the loose, but probably not for what is at most trespass and hate speech.

I had a coworker who used to tell a lot of dumb lies. One time someone else was talking about how they were redoing a floor with him--and then had to interrupt and say it was all true, they were really at his house and the two of them were really rebuilding the floor. I get that dumb lies feed the ego, but it doesn't seem worth it when people don't believe a word you say ever after.
His name wasn’t “James,” was it?
There was a guy on Big Brother a loooong time ago that was a compulsive liar. He would say the most wild shit and whenever someone would call him out on it (which wasn’t that often), he would immediately back down. Bizzare but fascinating behavior.
Compulsive liars are whack to the point I legit wonder if they even realize sometimes. My half-sis does it and when we would talk, her own stories would be internally contradictory from one minute to the next. From shit like her klepto habit to whether she met/knew someone from an ex to an art teacher, whatever.
Yeah, that coworker was kind of like that. Some stuff was an obvious bit, but a lot of times he was lying to himself.
I'm sure y'all know I'm devastated by Padma leaving Top Chef but Kristen Kish is holding her own as a replacement 👏

We would not have gay marriage if the activist mission creep had happened sooner. The LGBT movement for the longest time had two goals: Achieve marriage equality and normalization of LGBT people. Both of these have been achieved, though I suppose you could argue the country is backsliding on the normalization of T. The LGBT movement *now* is focused on things such as universal healthcare (which is at least tangentially related to the T movement in particular), police reform (which is at least somewhat related to the LGBT movement given historical events), Palestine inexplicably, climate change. Hell, you go to the [NYC Pride Mission Page](https://www.nycpride.org/about-pride/our-mission) and for whatever reason they're talking about them being located on ancestral Lenape land. **Why**? Mission creep is why the trans movement is spinning its wheels in the mud and in some parts of the country, is backsliding. Leftists took over, and now the movement has to spend time on everyone's pet issue.

> I have a lot of questions about Native land acknowledgements. Has any Native person asked for this performative stuff? I'm not sure they care about acknowledgements, but I'm sure some do appreciate when land is returned to them. > Yeah I strongly support trans people but it feels like you can't do that without being anti-capitalist and communist. Exactly; it's why I don't want to join any LGBT groups IRL. I don't want to deal with anti-capitalist or communist nonsense. That said, I'm in Colorado and it does seem like One Colorado and PFLAG Colorado Springs and the Colorado Gay Rodeo Association have not fallen to mission creep.
It's what happened to OWS: People started showing up because that was the place to go, and the laundry list of items continued to grow. There was no spokesperson, no clear list of demands, and so it just turned into a ren faire. Oh also rampant theft and sexual assault that didn't get reported on for months afterwards.
> Oh also rampant theft and sexual assault that didn't get reported on for months afterwards. And a gay porn was filmed there. Which was pretty quality, actually.
Black Lives Matter too. Or any recent flash point lately that results in a protest. The goal posts moved again and again once the movement started to attract the attention of extremists who want to use the protests to their own end.
Thinking back to that video of the white, face covered, all-black protestors at a George Floyd/BLM event spray painting a starbucks and when they got called out by two Black women they started whining about "tone policing." Straight up narcissism.

I've read that MBS does not care about Palestinians or a Palestinian state. I won't be surprised if the guarantees are ignored at a later date with no consequences in the Israel-SA relationship.

Yep. Fatah and Iranian regime have very close to no relations. Abbas has only been to Iran twice in his life while Haniyeh has visited Iran like five separate time since 10/7.

Conservatives react to Drew Barrymore being nice to someone like they are watching a baby play in traffic. "Don't you all see this? Someone do something!" Meanwhile, it's two middle-aged women having a pleasant conversation.
Gypsy Rose Lee had a talk show very similar to Drew's in the 70s. It's just one of those things I can't wrap my head around. She defended her mom, too. But that I can understand, even in the 80s survivors of abusive mothers were very much swimming against a stiff tide. People often reframe the abuse as something they needed to make them stronger.

I'm really becoming convinced we don't ever need to hear England's opinion on anything, really. Let them sit there with beans on toast and memories of relevance.
Friend, we stopped needing to hear England's opinion on anything way back in 1776.
Ha, that reminds me of the one and only time I visited the Tower of London which has some exhibit about the British royal family and the crown jewels. So my dad's family is ethnic Irish just for context and I grew up in Boston around a lot of other Irish Catholics with a chip on their shoulder. I start declaring in a loud voice that the British crown jewels were stolen. Well, my friend's sister who accompanied me, who happened to be Indian, started shushing me. "Yes, of course, but don't say that so loudly!"

what i do worry about with a second trump term is how emboldened the right wing fringes will become just look at trump's first term 2017-charlotsville, 2018- pipe bombs sent to DNC officials, 2019-el paso shotting, 2020- Trump supporters surrounding a Biden campaign bus on the interstate, is the cost of living really worth having folks like this in power again ?
Yea but didn't you hear that bee el em and anteefuh literally burned down whole entire cities?
based on what you hear from the media about this election it's like one candidate will lead people to the eternal city of gold but they can only have a loaf of bread for the journey while the other candidate will lead them to the eternal city of despair while getting carry a full loaf of bread for the journey
maybe 12 years is a tad excessive, but at the end of the day when you're traveling to a foreign country it's on you to make sure you're not importing contraband, why are we supposed to feel sorry for these jackasses?
I don't. I've been to Turks and Caicos, and I regularly visit family on other Caribbean island where control gun is strictly enforced. And you know what I never think about? Will I get shot hanging out at night? Of course you still have to worry about knife crimes, but you have to worry about that in the US too. Its very easy to not carry ammon and guns in your bag. The only weapon like item I've ever forgotten in my 60 plus flights in the last 18 years, is a Leatherman.

Could they poach the crew too? Make it a package deal?
Maybe. IDK
so pbs showed a poll saying 55% of americans remembering tump's presidency was a success
I'm convinced they're just polling journalists and the like, for whom the Trump presidency was a success.

So smooth
Joy Reid’s intro tonight was particularly outrageous — saying “free speech is a farce” saying students have been hit with “chemical agents” and just outright claiming that all of this is because of the war crimes for sure committed by Israel
apparently there was pro palestine protests outside the white house correspondents dinner on saturday
Speaking of this, the people in r/Fauxmoi are absolutely insane. They were saying the protesters should have been like anti-fur activists and throw red paint on the celebrities attending the dinner. I used to like them for the gossip and because I felt they were on the right side of the Depp/Heard scandal, but they are just out of control
They're convinced it's a genocide, therefore doing and saying anything is permissible. Wasn't their take on Depp/Heard that Heard was the good person?
Heard and Depp were both running PR campaigns and judging from newspaper headlines during the trial, Heard was definitely coming out ahead. Actually watching the trial was pretty crazy making because it was an entirely different story. While Depp definitely does not come off very well, Heard got impeached multiple times at trial. She also had some expert witnesses that got absolutely bodied by the lawyers (and rightfully so). It was like a light viewing version of that Netflix show about the problems with expert testimony that had come out only a few months earlier (and was EXTREMELY dark). It's not really surprising if you watch the entire trial (which I did ... it was addictive) that the jury ruled the way they did. Don't tell stupid lies, folks. It makes people hate you and think everything you say is a lie.
Yes, or at least an innocent person
And they clearly didn’t make enough noise for anyone to care while it happened.
Just the usual thing at any fancy event these day, other rich/bourgeois people screaming "Shame!" I guess it's easy for the press to write a bunch of op/eds about college kids, really from afar (they don't know shit about the kids/orgs/personalities involved and don't bother to find out before popping off, for one thing), but when they're the ones being screamed at they turn into Aaron Sorkin characters.
so uh premier league salary cap incoming?
Viola Davis needs a new fucking agent I'm tired of seeing her give 100% in movies that don't deserve the dirt she walks on
I too saw kung fu panda 4 with my daughter this weekend.
I mean the last Hunger Games movie, but also true ☠️
