I have to say I kind of liked her crazy outfits and eccentric style - I think she has the voice and talent to make it more than just a gimmick. We lack eccentricity to the detriment of our species, I think : all women reduced to slim or curvaceous ‘sexy’ preeners in the same clothes, give or take a few…
The mountain cabin serves a useful dual function: it will both provide a route to escape from this white supermacist nightmare, and allow you to live above rising sea-levels thanks to the entrenched climate change denial in Trump’s new cabinet of morons.
I am taking inspiration from Sarah Connor and training my daughter how to cope with the impending apocalypse. I have been honestly trying to work out how/when we could move to the mountains in a half-joking, secretly truthfully petrified way, for a while now.
If they were , for some unknown reason, fixated on having a fictional comic superhero as an honorary ambassador to ““achieve gender equality and empower all women and girls”, they could have at least picked someone awesome like Jiya, the Burka Avenger - “passionate school teacher by day, a burka-clad superhero by…
Answers to what?
This why Trump got elected. The US is clearly full of ignorant, gullible idiots.
I absolutely respect your right to believe what you want to believe, but it is incredibly dangerous to buy into hoaxes like these which are supported by literally no empirical evidence of any kind, merely provide support for charlatans, and can be a particularly fraudulent and horrible way to abuse the gullibility of…
“If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face—for ever.”
It is still so disturbing that these facile, ignorant and insane ‘policy proposals’ actually won the day. HE WON with this absolute bullshit, and with bullshit artists like Katrina using verbal diarrhea to try and lend an air of legitimacy to what was evidently racist idiocy written on the back of a napkin to appeal…
And ‘experts’ always get it wrong, as Trumpwad likes to yell at crowds...
A genius? Are you being ironic?
“The truth is, narcissistic parents don’t have children because they want to nurture and guide their offspring through life; they have children so that they have an automatic, built-in relationship in which they have power, one in which the narcissist can write the rules without any checks and balances.The child of…
The list of things i HATE ABOUT THIS , and which simultaneously convince me I am actually asleep in an endless nightmare or trapped in a locked ward somewhere drugged to the hills, are as follows:
“Israel can claim to be a democracy only in the sense that apartheid South Africa could also claim to be so: an “ethnocracy” with full democratic rights for the privileged race or religion; lesser or no democratic rights for those with undesirable skin color, ethnicity, nationality, or race”
That’s actually false - yes of course the state of Israel was formed as a response to the second world war, but the idea of strategic plan to form a Jewish state was debated in political and military discourse from 1917 with the Balfour declaration, when the British Foreign secretary wrote to Rothschild to propose…
That’s one of the things I love about Thomas More’s Utopia, where he explains how the people have realised the madness of being obsessed with glittering jewellery which has no real function/natural value other than the weird greed and authority we give it, beyond that of a shimmering stone you might play with as a…
Hate speech should not be protected under the First Amendment. What possible value can it ever serve? I am all for free speech, but it is ridiculous that hate speech is not an exception. The definition of hate speech is not that difficult to ascribe and is achieved in many constitutional democracies, and there are…
China is “moderately less oppressive”? It is an aggressively authoritarian state (obviously a winner for Trump)with a horrendous human rights record, has intervened militarily in neighbouring territories, and is still refusing to grant sovereignty to Tibet. It’s not a government to get in bed with. It is also…
Surely any attempt to understand the horrific situation in Syria now HAS to take account of America’s role (as well as the construction of the state itself under European control). Kissinger has for ever been pushing the ‘sectarian fight! nothing to see here!’ line for years, despite the fact that his ideological…
