This is quite on par with what Sinatra did for Sammy Davis Jr. He wouldn't play or frequent ANY club/hotel NOTHING that wouldn't allow Sammy or other folks of color in. And what the Kennedy family did to him was gross and disgusting (And Marilyn too!)

Quite possibly - that guy holding the sigh is the only one who has ever gotten laid, and only because he took advantage of a drunk girl in a bar telling her he was indeed Matt Damon...

Did I hurt your feelings Dougie? Sorry/NOTSorry.
I explained to him why he got dissed. Too bad no one ever took the time to explain things to you.

But I thought that those who worshipped the orange creature don't believe that due process should be a thing, and they are perfectly fine with "others" being disappeared. And let's face it - "Santos" is a name that would perfectly fit into Alligator Alcatraz, yeah?

onion person @junlper.beer · 14h

just found out that about a week ago, while george santos has been in solitary confinement, that he wrote that due to the inhuman conditions he is facing he is now pro prison reform. just unreal stuff honestly

Twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, I paced in circles like a restless ghost.
The windows were frosted, allowing only a faint suggestion of daylight and nightfall, enough to remind me that time was passing, though I had little sense of how.
The shower water was always cold, and my only amenities were the steel toilet and sink fused together in the corner. It was a miserable existence. Yet, as I soon learned, misery can always be deepened
On September 7th, the warden's office saw fit to move me into something far worse, an even smaller cell, no more than seven by nine feet, coated in filth, reeking of neglect, and utterly devoid of natural light or ventilation.
In that suffocating shoebox, there is no room to walk, no hint of the sun, no trace of humanity. The silence is crushing.
The air feels stale. The walls themselves seem to close in. I keep asking myself: will this barbaric confinement ever end? Is this legal under our Constitution, or have I simply been erased from the protections of due process?
Most haunting of all, will I survive it? With no access to my family, no calls, no emails, and with letters that may never leave this building, I live in total darkness, cut off from the world I once fought to serve.
Let me be blunt: I find Warden Kelly's so-called "protection" not only unpalatable, but cruel and unjustifiable. My time here has opened my eyes to a truth far too many ignore: America desperately needs prison reform.

The point was that you quoted from Wiki - and they are not a recognized source that is "real" to anyone in the academic world. It wasn't a dig - it was just an FYI on why you were being dissed for your post.

Pirate Wench Art @piratewenchart.bsky.social · 13h

Get better sourcing if you want to be taken seriously - WIKI is not a good "source" for anything but celebrity talking points.

Why didn't that dude just ask "Why are you so uppity?" - Does anyone KNOW who this "reporter" was that asked the question? Because this was without a doubt, one of the stupidest questions I have heard posed to someone in a long time.

Of course it did - sell on Thursday - announce you'll take tariffs on Sunday... As soon as you've got those calls in for the stocks you know are going to skyrocket.

Platner can beat Collins.
Mills WON'T beat her.
People are sick of establishment candidates. If the Dems insist on propping up Mills, Collins will beat her for the simple reason of "The devil you know". The Dems need to pull their heads out of their asses. We're so fucking tired of them.
