The ‘Peace President’ killed six more people off the coast of Venezuela this morning. We have no evidence other than his word that they were a threat to anyone, anywhere and also release the Epstein files. Thank you for your attention in this matter!

U.S. measles cases continue to climb, with outbreaks across the country

In South Carolina, more than 150 unvaccinated schoolkids are under quarantine after being exposed to measles. Across the U.S., total case counts could be even higher than the official number.

I believe they are doing this on purpose, firing everyone and then bringing back some. It's abusive, there's no rhyme or reason. It's meant to make employees feel insecure. That they could be fired at any time for any reason.

Yeah I had some issues...like a chasm being where the Brandywine should be. But, oh well...

I found nothing wrong with Rings of Power. It touched points in the Lore and expanded the spaces in between.

All we have to decide is what to do with the time given us. And Frodo carried the burden, Sam carried Frodo. We have a time given to us as well. Can we carry the burden. Can we throw Trump into Mt Doom?

Too many people like death and killing. Like Game of Thrones.

Sauron is replaced.

It's fantasy, not reality.

Game of thrones is just kinky sex and death. and more death. and more hopeless death. and gratuitous death. and excessive death. and then there's zombies.
Some of the actors made really good charactrers but the eavil and violence really made it all so pointless.

Who the fuck banned the Hobbit and why?
