I don’t have time to listen to the interview you link to, but your article implies (by the use of the phrase “it’s worth noting, without being asked a full question...?} that the fact that Sharon may have been trying to get in front of the question is a bad thing.

Yes, and to add insult to injury our godbothering Prime Minister wants women ‘to stand with him’ when he should be standing with us. His response to our marching for justice was that we were fortunate not to be met with bullets for our trouble! Instead of shedding fake tears and mouthing platitudes to assure us that…

Interesting enough, it seems this time the media isn’t letting it go, and people are paying attention. I think Scomo would love for the floods (for non Australians, which is most readers, we are currently experiencing horrific and terrifying floods in NSW) to divert focus, but its not hugely affecting the other states…

There’s a lot missing from this piece, honestly, and it’s worse than you’d think.

Legalize (or at least decriminalize) sex work with REASONABLE regulation allowing LEOs to interact without the constant threat of arrest. Then investigating and enforcing anti-trafficking laws will be 1000% more functional.

They already are. At least the coverage of them is anyway. Once a bunch of gun humping lunatics made it practically impossible to do anything about this legislatively after 20 first graders were murdered in their own goddamn school, it became abundantly clear that this shit is never going away.

I taught my son young that old black and white movies could be things of wonder, not something to be shunned. The result was that when we went to see Jackson’s version of Kong in the theatre when my son was eight, he had already seen the 1933 version a couple of times, and his verdict when we came out of the theatre…

I rewatch this movie every Thanksgiving eve, because as a kid in the 80s WOR out of NY would show this, Son of Kong, Mighty Joe Young and an assortment of Godzilla movies during the Thanksgiving holiday. I looked forward to it every year and have continued the tradition well into adulthood.

No sign-in required. It will have a few pages for the “fam and co.” (for brown-nosing purposes only) and the bigly main most importantest page auto-loads latest content (aka incoherent rant) where viewers will only be able to like/love and reply with campaign rally catchphrases; MAGA, Trump2024, TrumpTheMessiah, Lock…

I have very little doubt that he’ll hire the cheapest possible contractors to set up the platform even though he’d go in with absolutely no intention of paying them. The site’s security and stability will reflect that, but it won’t matter to Trump or the platform’s users since it’s all part of the grift.

I wonder how many of his followers will sign up to have all of their posts, videos, passwords and other personal information hacked within a month of launch? I’m betting this platform will have security holes that make Parler’s look small by comparison.

Luckily for me, my tin foil hat protects me from them 5G death beams!

Yep. There’s been a lot written about this but I see those sides converging in real time. One Facebook friend from high school that has gone full Q who I check on for amusement/terror and who was an adult entertainer and into all sorts of new age mysticism and astrology but with no connection to organized religion, is…

“In his house at R’lyeh dead Q waits dreaming.”

Its all essentially a pyramid scheme, much like Christianity.

If we could just keep kids from being brainwashed by religion until they were like 10 years old, religion would disappear.

L Ron Hubbard made up Scientology just to prove he could. It didn't go away after that became known.

I thought everyone was already aware that Q lives in the top of the Chrysler Building, where it lays in wait for Michael Moriarty to feed it the occasional gangster.

I’m sure the documentary will get into this, but QAnon yokes itself firmly to Evangelical Christianity, and that’s what keeps the suckers sucking. The more it’s exposed as a grift, the more big dates that pass with zero incident, the more the true believers are encouraged to stay true. Because it’s not fact-based,…

I wonder if Fiennes would dismiss Rowling’s bullshit as “difference of opinion” if she was saying that PoCs should ride different transit to minimize racial tension.
