We had magic mirrors and magic fans for centuries tho.

We’ve had solar and wind electricity generation for centuries?

• Go to Teotihuacan to see how non/hierarchical it was, maybe trip balls if the opportunity presents itself.

• Go to Harappa or Mahenjo Daro and see how indus seals were used.

• Kindly ask the Minoans if that topless lady holding the snakes is in charge.

Burning down your house doesn’t poison people thousands of years later, so it’s not a perfect analogy.

Plus we have magic mirrors and magic fans that do the same thing as the magic rocks just way cheaper.

It’s not clear why. It could be an issue with being able to accurately perceive your own temperature, it could be a comfort thing, it could be that they’re more likely to want important possessions to be harder to steal.

So either medical, emotional or social. 🤷

The kennedy clan are known to be very protective of their reputation, hence being so reluctant to speak out about the insane russian asset in the family.

I’m going to enjoy watching their family name associated with the largest rise in preventable deaths in american history. At least until I contract polio.

I hate people who wear cold weather gear in warm/heated places

Schizophrenic people are very likely to do this. I work in mental health and this was mentioned in our training. At my location maybe 1/3-1/2 of folks wore one or more puffy jackets all summer long.

I messaged it to you. Please report back if you remain alive and internetted.

“Fear coded” is an interesting construction. That is easier to say than “betrays a fear based thought process”, which is what it sounds like to me. Different enough from something like ‘fearful thinking’ that I can see why it would be used.

The Pleiadian stuff is just too much nonsense for me to want to understand anything used in that context.

I searched just ‘pleiadian’ on google and got both an ‘About’ and the 3rd result linking to a misspelled PDF on IRS.gov about “ancier& extraterrestrials” Um what? I’ve never been so tempted to click a link that I know I shouldn’t click.

refers to all of her thoughts as “codes”

I’ve never heard of such a thing. Can anyone point me to a real life example? I’d love to see exactly how that’s used.

Remember when Silvio Berlusconi lied, cheated, raped and stole his way through public life, gaining wealth and fame, dying at the ripe age of 86 without facing justice and after having set the stage for even more extreme fascists to take over?

History shows that often, very often, the baddies just win.

If it’s not right for them, it’s not right for us

Doxing, say, women who’ve had abortions or trans people so they can be imprisoned or killed by 3%ers is just fundementally different than doxing a murderous fascist in order to protect people’s lives.

Outcome matters.

the idea that it would hurt small business is a smoke screen.

Yeah, the ultra wealthy are always claiming that if they have to pay their fair share then all of society will suffer. 🙄 118 honestly sounds fine to me, but the array of groups I trust that were against it gave me pause. I voted no, hoping to avoid another case of doing the right thing the wrong way.

or he’s going to go to prison

Someone’s an optimist!

Even the hostages are only as much leverage as their families can apply - netanyahu has shown time and again that he’ll let them all die if it gives him another day in power.

Is it equivalent to burning the cross? The Swedish flag?

No, it’s definitely not. You have to look at the social context of the act, not just the act itself.

To use the most obvious examples, burning an american flag in protest of the vietnam war is clearly an expression of political speech, whereas burning a cross on the lawn of an african-american family’s house is an incitement to violence.

A fascist burning the koran is clearly an incitement to violence and hatred, and not legitimate political speech worth protecting.

Stinky tofu is usually fermented directly in rotting vegetable matter, I believe. But that sounds like the flavor, yeah.

Have you tried deep frying it? The crispy outside and soft inside is delightful. It’s often served with a little cooked cabbage.

Wasabi Sushi in Portland OR had a deep fried hot cheetos sushi donut. It was like a tempura fried sushi roll, but round and covered in cheeto dust.

It was not bad, just a bit too greasy for my taste.

For all the fun-ruiners saying this is not uplifting news because his assets will live on, zombie-like, animating his feckless children as they continue to inflict their monstrous will on our country - shush!

Just let us have this ok? A few moments to celebrate the death of a parasitic aristocrat doesn’t seem like too much to ask.
