NOT Pamela Anderson, please. She's a fan of Assange, and she's real fond of some victim-blaming horseshit. Also, she worries about feminism "paralyzing" men, and in 2019 thought it was cute to post photos of herself in a Native American headdress.
If you went looking for a sign that civilization has fallen into decadence, having a soft-porn star elected PM will do. Not as bad as the 34 count felon running for office with the blessing and backing of all the major "news" outlets, but 'twill serve.
I will also permit Canadian born Pamela Anderson to be president. I was 14 when Barb Wire came out, so she's got my vote forever. Canada must stipulate that they are the 51st state and that their population is smaller than California.
I love the America's hat thing. I guess that would make Florida America's dick, Mexico America's toilet, and Britain the festering, aged womb from which we sprang.
I’m not worried about what Uncle Joe and Auntie Kamala do. They’ll both do what is best for country, while the Orange God Emperor’s only loyalty is to himself.
Anyone thinking we'll just change out our candidate after all they've accomplished and at this (seemingly) late time is either a fool or is beyond hopeful. We will lose. I'm watching the Story channel on our founding fathers and I'd rather hang together (or we'll surely hang alone). And I distrust Trump to ever do the dignified, honest and right thing. We all know what must happen though nobody should say (or especially write), it. We can pray for the 2nd Trump "plague" to do the Justice that must be done, naturally.
Yes yes yes. At this point we would elect anyone and I wanted a moderate woman. She’s probably that. Seriously at this point many would agree. Even albertans 🙄🤛🏼💁🏼♀️
I had to look that up - not everyone sucks the member of the horrible person and ''writer'' George R.R. Martin, who hasn't written a decent thing in his life.
George Martin (Beatles and other bands producer) has written many better things in his lifetime.
My guess is that if they hadn't packed in so much sex (and violence) and nudity (and violence) and misogyny (and violence) and violence (and violence) into that show it would've died a very swift death.
I started watching the first episode, and could see that rape and torture were going to be major plot elements throughout, and noped right the fuck out.
There is no sex at all in Tolkein, and such torture as there is happens offstage, as it were; Sauron's torture of Smeagol, the torment inflicted on captive Elves in Angband by Morgoth, etc. Unlike Martin, professor Tolkein did not revel in pain, he just recognized it as the price of life.
Fisrt of all, I am not much of a reader of fantasy books. Tolkein's stuff and Jonathan Swift have sufficed for me for decades.
But for the most part I read non-fiction, and as that is my preference I don't need to heasra about ''worldbuilding for the video game Elden Ring''.
I depsise most videogames, as I do not need to pretend I am someone else and fight people online to prove anything.
I hated Dungeons and Dragons and I hate all it's festering ilk.
I live in the REAL WORLD Maybe if so many people weren't playing this shit and pretending to be people thay ar not, the Trump may have not won in 2016, with all those gamergate fans refusing to vote for Hilary cause she was a GIRL.

🌒 Moon Phase: July 07, 2024
On this day the Moon will be in a Waxing Crescent Phase. Best seen in the west after the sun dips below the horizon at sunset. This is the first Phase after the New Moon and is a great time to see the features of the moon's surface.
Global Forgiveness Day, which is a good thing because I had a breakfast meeting with my father this morning and it fell apart in the last half-hour or so as my Left Libertarianism ran into his FOX-drenched MAGA like a big ship ran into an iceberg. He told me a loathsome buffet of talking points and told me I was immune to "facts" while doing the very thing himself. He wants me to watch FOX to "get both sides" while there's zero fucking possibility I could convince him to read Wonkette or Crooks & Liars. But I still do love him, even though I'm seriously disappointed in him, but he's been like this for his whole life and I'm not going to get through the years of FOX/Hannity/Reagan/Limbaugh he's absorbed.
Yeah, and also too she basically victim-blamed Weinstein's victims - I did a little searching because I could only remember that there were a fair few reasons I dislike her.
Sinec you mentioined Weinstein, I'll mention something I have mentioned before (hopefully not on this thread!).
Both I and my (now ex-)wife before we were married, back in the early 1980s, knew all about Weinstesin and his Casting Couch Bingo, so to speak. Point being., even though NEITHER of us had any links to Hollywood, we heard about this then.
It was so NOT a secret and clear that many REAL Hollywood stars were covering it up in hopes of getting in one of the film he and his brother were producing.
And I imagine there are some Hollywood producers or stars or other festering bastards who are still raping women and getting away with it.
Man, it’s hard to believe that thirty years ago lying to Congress about getting a consensual hummer was enough to make a President “unfit for office,” now anything is okay if you’re a Republican
So, in parliamentary systems, isn't it not that unusual for the PM to resign strategically? What would happen to the party's chances if he did? Not piling on, just wondering if he may go just help out.
Sure. Pamela. Anyone but Peter Petroleum.
NOT Pamela Anderson, please. She's a fan of Assange, and she's real fond of some victim-blaming horseshit. Also, she worries about feminism "paralyzing" men, and in 2019 thought it was cute to post photos of herself in a Native American headdress.

I am feeling a skosh better that the Left made a big win in France, meaning right-wing "populism" CAN be defeated.
I’m not worried about what Uncle Joe and Auntie Kamala do. They’ll both do what is best for country, while the Orange God Emperor’s only loyalty is to himself.
You're darned right on both instances.

''Joffrey Baratheon''

Thank you -why people would even WANT to watch that kind of vileness is beyond me.
I don't remember there being anything like that in any of J.R.R. Tolkein's writings and their adaptations.
There is no sex at all in Tolkein, and such torture as there is happens offstage, as it were; Sauron's torture of Smeagol, the torment inflicted on captive Elves in Angband by Morgoth, etc. Unlike Martin, professor Tolkein did not revel in pain, he just recognized it as the price of life.
Exactly, and yet some people here do not get why I depsise writers like
George Rape and Rampage Martin.
That and the fact he'd served in WW1
Didn't he also lose a son in the war?
I think you maybe thinking of Rudyard Kipling?
he's written some pretty decent stuff.
you should read before judging.
Fisrt of all, I am not much of a reader of fantasy books. Tolkein's stuff and Jonathan Swift have sufficed for me for decades.

Two words: Tuf Voyaging.
Dying of the Light wasn't half-bad either, from what I recall.
Lotta strong opinions about GOT for someone who had to Google Joffrey. 🤷♂️
SO?
I don't have to know about everything a writer did to know it's all crap.
I'm disappointed that a Canadian would like that excrement.
Also, with the R. R. one, point out that Monkees hat -- every time!
"...died a very swift death." I see what you did there?
You did? I don't. Did I make a joke there?
BTW, to be clear -- I am no fan of that Martin of Game of Thorns or Dragon House or whatever.
Violence (and violence) / very swift death.... maybe related? Linguistically?
😂😂

What does one do. I wonder, to mark National Koi Day- take them out for brunch?
Global Forgiveness Day, which is a good thing because I had a breakfast meeting with my father this morning and it fell apart in the last half-hour or so as my Left Libertarianism ran into his FOX-drenched MAGA like a big ship ran into an iceberg. He told me a loathsome buffet of talking points and told me I was immune to "facts" while doing the very thing himself.

National Let's All Take a Breather Day. 🙏 Pretty please!
Poly-ev? You brought him, you ev 'im.
Canada's Dolly Parton? Hardly. Anderson is a VERY vocal supporter of Assange. Pass.
Yeah, she's been weirdly supportive of some pro-authoritarian types. I'm genuinely not a fan of hers for that reason.
Eek Paltrow and RFK. I agree too far off.
She is also a newage (pronounced like sewage) promoter on the Gwyneth Paltrow and RFK Jr. level.
Yeah, and also too she basically victim-blamed Weinstein's victims - I did a little searching because I could only remember that there were a fair few reasons I dislike her.
Sinec you mentioined Weinstein, I'll mention something I have mentioned before (hopefully not on this thread!).

It was so NOT a secret and clear that many REAL Hollywood stars were covering it up in hopes of getting in one of the film he and his brother were producing.
And I imagine there are some Hollywood producers or stars or other festering bastards who are still raping women and getting away with it.
The press called for HRC to step aside at this time in 2016 because she had a very bad cold.
The press called for Obama to step aside for the good of the country in 2008.
Over 100 papers called for Clinton to step down in 1996 because he had soiled the office.
And in June election year 1992 Clinton was in third place.
Stop with the giggling and bed-wetting dude-bro Andrew.
This is too serious for the rest of us.
Man, it’s hard to believe that thirty years ago lying to Congress about getting a consensual hummer was enough to make a President “unfit for office,” now anything is okay if you’re a Republican
We couldn't have a President who lied to the American public, after all.
It is the upsidedown.
So, in parliamentary systems, isn't it not that unusual for the PM to resign strategically? What would happen to the party's chances if he did? Not piling on, just wondering if he may go just help out.
I was at the Junos in Halifax when she hosted, right after she made her opposition to the seal hunt public in not very polite terms.
She was roundly booed every time she spoke.
Ok nope then. Any other moderate woman want to step up?!
