I don’t watch The Traitors, but I’m not surprised to hear that Rob Rausch is dominating the game. Alabama occasionally produces generational competitors like this (Rob for reality TV, Willie Mays for baseball, Lionel Richie for R&B, Condoleezza Rice for war crimes, etc.)

Sorry man you can't hang out with us if your mech dont run a fission core. Yeah I know you still run nuclear but we're kinda succumbing to the radionuclide induced visions generated by the conflict between our flesh and our implants. I just don't think you'd get it?

This is the aftermath of an ICE kidnapping a few blocks from my home in St. Paul—an hour ago. A quiet street full of broken glass and at least three wrecked cars. The target of the kidnapping was taken away by ambulance. He was on a stretcher and covered by a sheet, though a cop said he was alive.

There are three things that have made me hopeful despite myself since Trump's election:
1) The immortal science of Marxism-Leninism
2) There are far more of us than there are of them

everything this admin does falls into the "really stupid" bucket or the "insanely sinister" bucket. by default most stuff goes into the really stupid bucket. while putting a really stupid item in the insanely sinister bucket looks bad, putting an insanely sinister item in the stupid bucket is worse

Needless for a variety of reasons, not least of which is that Flanagan already made a Mrs. Carmody-style god-botherer the central villain of his Vampire Island show
