I’m just here for all the “Let them fight” gifs.

The security guard, as he said, almost certainly had no idea who she was. She was out sight for years, so if you aren’t closely following pop culture, you likely don’t know what she looks like now. She was world famous at one point, but she’s no longer anywhere near that level of notoriety.

If you really wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt, it’s possible they looked at the potential jury pool for this community and figured there are plenty of people who would look at these videos and see their mothers and aunts rather than a “depraved mind.”

The data is not robust, but there is some evidence that white men in red states are the biggest consumers of online porn, and that even self-professed “Christian” men are a major audience. You have to wonder how long this will last.

He has occasionally shown flashes of humanity and rationality, for example after Jan. 6, and MAGA world won’t tolerate it. 

You forgot the most important thing, which is, is the brisket any good?

That was something, a generation ago, I would have assumed was meant as some deranged acid trip. But given how the disconnected from reality the people he’s trying to appeal to are, I suppose it may make sense to someone. 

Did . . . did he really, unironically, use Gigachad in this ad as some signifier of his manhood? 

I’d be worried some particularly large dude might step on it.

Trump’s principle is Enriching Trump, and the MAGA folks respect that. DeSantis doesn’t even have that much.

To settle so fast for so much means the reality was even worse than the allegations. The Murdochs wanted this to go away as fast as possible.

Things like this are why DeSantis’s poll numbers are cratering. It’s become obvious that he has no principles and his governing approach is simply catering to whatever culture-war meme is getting the most current traction. To get a piece of legislation like this out of the current FL legislature with bipartisan…

As a practical matter during the summer, you’ve needed advance reservations to do anything at Yosemite for a long time, unless you were a day-tripper willing to wait in endless lines.

The cheesy low-budget special effects were what made me reconsider the merits of the Lynch version. It was an answer to the question “What if we pulled out all the weirdness and made Dune like ST:TNG?”

That Sci-Fi channel Dune never gets mentioned in these arguments makes me sad. It was so clearly an attempt to make an anti-Lynch version.

Is that her at 1:31?

I’m just here for the continuing arguments between the “Lynch Dune is a visionary work of art that can never be approached” camp and the “Lynch Dune is a crime against humanity” camp.

Also, carriers are mostly steel, and cruise ships are mostly aluminum.

The last cruise we took, there was someone waiting to help us every time I turned around.

Or dick enlargement surgery, or pec and ab implants, or any of the innumerable ways people surgically enhance themselves to conform to traditional gender conventions. None of that is “mutilation.”
