"No one has ever wanted that prize more out of a mixture of both pure ego and the pathological need for there not to be anything that Obama achieved that he hasn't, and that is an objective fact."

Just needs Nicolas Cage in the background, tending to his alpacas.

Name an Italian more worthy of an American holiday than Columbus.

Sepia-toned portrait of Italian film maker Mario Bava. He's dressed in what appears to be a tweed jacket, his hair is slicked back, and he has a pencil moustache. He's looking upwards.

JOIN US! tonight at 8pm BST, as #Gothtober continues on #TheFilmCrowd, with the rare Italian film TOMB OF TORTURE!
Will we find out why the makers originally called it "METEMPSYCH"? Something to do with the transubstantiation of the soul, or just pretentiousness?
Find out at 8pm!
Link in post below👇

Italian poster for the gothic horror movie TOMB OF TORTURE, here with its original title of METEMPSYCO.

Yeah; the main story suffered for being mixed in with a little too much E.U. building, and it felt like the resolution was rather pat because of that. But over all a strong season, with great characters and acting.

Good video; you watch now.

"Antifa are the true fascists!" is a take so stupid that anyone gabbling it shouldn't be allowed near sharp objects and should have mittens sewn to their sleeves.

Remember that if the Democrats take power again, they will go into great detail telling you why they can't do things.

You will tell them that Trump did those things, and they will say he broke the law.

You will then ask why he hasn't been arrested, and they will be very quiet.
