#No declaration of war

[themoderatespeaks]

DO NOT LET TRUMP DECLARE WAR ON IRAN.

Now that he sees the accelerating success of the Indivisible protests, he will play his ace: becoming a wartime president. This would make it far easier to grant himself emergency powers and shut down dissent in a way that will make the past week look mild.

Donald Trump becoming a wartime president is unacceptable.

A reminder about Palestine:

Firstly, the existence of the country of Palestine was never in question. And secondly, as per the UK's own words in the oft-referred to "foundational" "Balfour Declaration":

"NOTHING SHALL BE DONE WHICH MAY PREJUDICE THE CIVIL AND RELIGIOUS RIGHTS OF EXISTING NON-JEWISH COMMUNITIES IN PALESTINE."

Plain as day.

The difference between Season 1 and Season 3 of the Bad Batch

Season 1: Omega: Crosshair, can I have a hug? Crosshair: The audacity??? Of this Child??? Nothing would revolt me more than to show any kind of weakness to sate your neediness. Season 3: Omega: Crosshair, you're getting a hug. Crosshair: The charity??? Of my Sister??? Nothing would give me more joy than to be hugged by the Literal Angel that you are, though I am a lowly worm.

look if finwë’s kids are like this, and his grandkids are like that, i feel pretty secure in saying the elf himself must have been an absolute fucking nightmare. melkor made sure to take him out early because if given the slightest opportunity to level up he would immediately become unstoppable

God, please, let this work. Let more MAGA faithful became MAGA leavers as they finally realize it was never "America First"—that it has always been "Trump First."

Thank you, Thomas Massie.

Thank you, Marjorie Taylor Greene.

Thank you, Tucker Carlson and Steve Bannon.

... Wow, those last three sentences felt weird in my mouth. Make no mistake: these people are enemies of everything America is supposed to stand for. But yeah MAGA warriors: Trump never cared about any of your causes. He is a demagogue. He uses your causes.

... And that's why I don't want impeachment + removal right now. Because as horrible as Trump is, I don't want to risk his replacement being an actual believer in this stuff. I don't want to risk Stephen Miller getting more power. I'd rather turn a convicted felon/rapist/con artist/narcissist into a lame duck for three years than have an actual white nationalist crusade on our hands.

We got actual measurable snow here in Coastal Southeast North Carolina, which hasn't happened in over 10 years. Our parking lot got plowed, but they piled it in from the accessibility ramp for the sidewalk, so I was out there shoveling to clear it.

I was told I shovel like I'm from the North, and like I've done it before. I just laughed it off and said no, I was born and raised SENC. 😐 I didn't have the heart to say it's similar muscle strength and stamina to beating my friends with sticks and shooting them with arrows. I guess there's another benefit to heavy fighting in the SCA.

I think the problem to me is that people who are mainly into the fandom side of star wars don't get that Maul is not the loud, dramatic monologuing villain he seems like around Obi-Wan. he is only "overconfident" in battle. every time he takes over a place or organization he has someone else be the public leader while he rules behind the scenes. he's nearly impossible to track down. he doesn't want to be the center of attention. he doesn't like when people pay attention to him. unless he wants to kill them

Achilles: Mom, I'm going out to kill Hector.

Thetis: Not dressed like that you aren't young man!

Achilles (now in the shining suit of armor forged by Hephaestus): Better?

Thetis: Yas Bitch slay!
