Letterman.
Agreed. It's unobtrusive and relatively tasteful. Didn't mind it.
A lot of the characters on SGU were annoying. The writing and character motivation for the interpersonal relationships was not good, imo. Still enjoyed the actual scifi aspects of the show, though.
Yeah, I'm seeing a lot of justified outrage, but also a lot of people who are incredibly ill-informed about their rights, what the law allows, and how to handle these confrontations. Both guys in that clip handled it poorly. First guy's digging a hole saying he's Mexican, then American. Second guy is just needlessly confrontational and wrong.
Sadly, that's not gonna hold up in the court you'll never see the inside of.
Is she pro-Trump or is she pro-whoever-the-fuck-is-in-the-White-House-because-US-support-and-pressure-on-the-Maduro-regime-is-an-important-lever-in-ousting-a-dictator?
That's just plain old BS.
Fully agree. That's part of the reason I enjoyed the choreo in The Acolyte so much.
Quite a good actress, definitely underrated.
A general strike is probably the best y'all can do at the moment. But it's not enough. That 3.5% figure is not some magic number that will change anything, it's just an indicator. The strike needs to really, truly hit these people where it hurts. But Trump and his ilk don't care who gets hurt. They'll burn whoever to continue to get their way. Be ready to dig in.
Because money wins elections and Mexico is rife with corruption. If it's not the cartels, it's the oligarch class, or the regime in power that can fundraise and make free and fair elections impossible.
Meanwhile, I always mute all notifications. It's just what I prefer.
It's the price we pay for using "free" services.If it costs money to run and you're not the one paying, surprise, you're the product.
I'm in the same boat. Really wanted to like it but it's just a bit too chaotic and almost too private? Like, most of her guests are her friends and there's so many in-jokes that it's almost intrusive.
Cartels will absolutely retaliate. It will be open season on US tourists. And it's not out of the realm of possibility that the cartels would likely retaliate on US soil, too.
It would be open season on US tourists in Mexico. And I wouldn't rule out retaliation on US soil.
The Mexican government isn't the problem, it's that cartels WILL retaliate if the US takes action on Mexican soil.
He'd have a snowball's chance in hell in the general, but it'd be fun to watch. Seriously, though, enough with the vibes. Stewart is a good guy but I doubt he'd get very far. Dems need to get their heads out of their asses and just represent working-class Americans instead of corporate interests and celebrities.
I wheeze-laughed.
She knows what she's doing
Every military is by definition more powerful and better equipped than any popular revolt. The truth is the US people have been conditioned over decades to depend on their corporate overlords for everything from food and housing to healthcare, they are the ones you need to revolt against. Trump and his ilk are just the latest most shameless puppets in power.
What ever happened to his daughter? She was in the media for a while and then nothing?
The account is very much active. You can check yourself, like I just did.
Yeah, but no. This is a very outdated, stereotyped view of schools. There's a million things that only have one right answer. But her concern is "business problems", not basic knowledge or understanding. There's a reason Timmy needs to know 2+2=4 without help.
He knows it won't matter. The photo will be used without context eventually. It'll become a file photo used for whatever. And he knows that if he always looks like everything is fine and dandy, that's what his sycophants respond to. He never looks sad, so everything must be ok. It's the same reason he waves at crowds that aren't there. If his picture is being taken, he needs to look the part. It's ghoulish and callous, but also part of a strict media strategy.
A bowl of oranges and a fat cat shamelessly staring right at you as he fucks up your carpet. It's not that hard to draw parallels with the real world.
You mean the Holocaust Museum?
What Letterman and others like him have to offer is their platform. The millionaire retired late night show host isn't the guy you want heading a movement or organization, anyway. There are tons and tons of organizations out there already. There's plenty of groups to join and take action with/for. So go do it.
