Unironically this is the end result of Hamilton and West Wing and hell even fucking School House Rock (for all the 30 something US Americans). This is real "end of history" thinking. Democracy is the final form, this is it, the problem is that the wrong people keep getting voted in, bad people, because "oh Republicans are stupid" or "oh Russia Boris what time is it in Moscow" or "oh leftists let Trump win". We just need real people of character to get in there and do politics and reach across the aisle and just have heart to heart talks with fascists and get things done FOR AMERICA because America is perfect! We just keep electing the wrong people but don't worry we'll fix it

The Rise of the Witch King expansion for Lord of the Rings: The Battle for Middle Earth 2

If you like RTS games and/or Lord of the Rings these games are pretty easy to pirate and there is an active modding community.

Kinda. This is gonna be super simplistic but like. To be good or moral or ethical or whatever you want to call it. It is not enough to love and support things that are good. You must hate and oppose things that are evil. If you are not capable of hating oppressors with the same conviction as the people who are oppressed, what are you even standing on? Do you think the parents of all the dead Palestinian kids have anything but hate for anyone and everything that claims the title of "Israeli"? Would you stand with them or not? Do you not tremble with indignation at the injustice, as Che said? Really think about whether or not you do.

This doesn't mean you necessarily have to go out and find Israeli nationals to harass and you don't have to send money to Hamas. But you do have to not go online and make weepy posts about "But but but what if they had really good reasons to be colonizers 🥺"

I love things like this. Movies that don't see the light of day until years after filming. Have you seen New York Ninja? Shot in 1984 and shelved until someone found it in like 2020. It was like 8 hours of film with no sound, full script, storyboards, or actor credits. A director had to edit it down to movie length, reconstruct a script by reading the actors lips, and have all the ADR done.

Roland's revolvers from The Dark Tower. Forged from the melted steel of Excalibur. I really hope the next adaptation they're doing will be good

Oh, that's okay. I don't criticize Israel very much anymore. I jump straight to "Death to Israel, death to all Zionists" which isn't criticism so much as it is an attempt at manifestation

As a resident of LA County every day I fantasize about heading down to UCLA with a leaf blower and a big ass bag of eriodictyon parryi cuttings and seeing how much havoc I could wreak on the Zionists before people catch on to what I'm doing

 

I guess they'll just print verbatim whatever candidate statement is sent in no matter how crackpot. This is from the official state voter information guide btw. This is the only statement with the disclaimer at the top. Nice of them to post their phone number and email tho

There are really no words for someone like this. Except "face the wall" maybe

 

This is DPS5 in Santa Clarita, California. These tough sons of bitches are marching in 93 degree heat and basically stopping all work withing the warehouse as we were in the process of loading the vans up when they arrived. It's a beautiful thing to see. Management wanted to keep us all around because we were already behind for the day but I just clocked out and went home. If you live in like Northern LA County you're not getting your Amazon package today. Unless you're REALLY far north and get your stuff from the Delivery Station in Palmdale.

For those who don't know about the different types of Amazon buildings, there are Fullfillment Centers, Sort Centers, and Delivery Stations like DPS5. We receive already packed orders from fullfillment centers and every day we sort out everything into individual routes to be picked up by the delivery vans that actually like go to your house and stuff. The delivery drivers are all independent contractors who work for what Amazon calls "Delivery Service Partners" so they are not technically Amazon employees making it harder for drivers as a whole to unionize. The driver jobs are fucking brutal and the surveillance they're under on the job is so incredibly fucking invasive. I guess there was some kind of contract dispute between one of the delivery companies and station management so some drivers were refusing to work too. If the drivers ever unionize Amazon would be so fucked.

 

Fuck unions. Yes I used to be a Pinkerton why do you ask
