we need to develop discrete and clear posting vocations so we can master our own clear posting form without being concerned with broad appeal. i should be able to fill out a form explaining that I'm a humourless bitch with three degrees and islamaboo tendencies and get assigned a group chat

it only shows up for a second but the blue-and-white striped singlets (telnyashka I think?) that Russian troops have is so iconic, you can put that peeking out under any fictional character's field jacket and you know that mf was doing some crazy shit on the eurasian steppe

life under Rome was slave plantations in rural areas and slave labour underpinning commerce and construction in the cities. it was legal for a man to kill his wife and children under certain conditions. the collapse of the empire in the west and its conquest by Islam in the east were both blessings.

if Macron had that iron in him he'd be using all those evil coast guard ships that hang around Marseille to show the Israelis what a real racist imperial project looks like

I get that it can be a way to practice comedy or microfiction but I do still feel sort of ill when I open up someone's account and they have several posts made in the past day

oh and of course, "if any of America's foes outsmart us or outlast us it's because of a problem with Learned Bias in our agents, not that they got absolutely owned". he seems to live to promise Eternal Empire to people who still read The New York Times

he always struck me as more a reactionary propogandist than a fabulist. black people get gunned down by white cops because of this Interesting Neurological Stress Response, poor kids never get good jobs due to Learned Social Interactions, carpet-bombing every enemy of American Power is Moral, etc

what's the hating game like on twitter these days? they still have all the important people on there so it must still be the place to send Actionable Threats

this looks like the "male" version of an unstructured neck-to-shoulder cut where the hairdresser cuts the back and sides into a triangle centered at the back of your head rather than a flatter line or convex shape that would emphasise the side curtains

There are some unbelievably hard lines in this short trailer. Can't wait to see the rest.

A far off horse and rider in the Kazakh desert

"If Genghis Khan turns his army this way,"

A tight close-up of a man's face, harshly displaying every line, pore and wrinkle

"...they will saturate the earth with human fat."

A man bleeding from the head inspects the blood on his hand after touching the wound

"You'd be the first speck of dust in a storm that will bury the entire world.'

Great Khan, I have indeedseen a city in which you appeared to me as the chad, while I wandered those same brick and mason streets as the virgin.
Yet I have been to another city, of alabaster filigree, in which a man much like you appeared to be the virgin, while I, held aloft in my litter, was chad.

if the survival of the Palestinian people is existentially threatening for Israel then Israel doesn't have a right to exist, for the very same reason we flattened the Reich and abandoned Rhodesia. If you cannot stop being a rogue state then every Israeli defeat is a victory for humanity
