I genuinely admit this does kind of shock me for the case of Butler County.

I can't speak for what was said at the protests, but seeing people react to an anodyne statement like "sacred spaces should not be used to promote activities in violation of international law" as if it were a vicious slur is clarifying.
Zohran Mamdani chastised a Manhattan synagogue that hosted an event promoting migration to Israel and settlements in occupied territories. His stance further tested his strained relationship with pro-Israel Jews in New York.

For 8 great Star Wars movies (or, more exactly, narrative arcs), that seems more than fair to me. ☺️

The Sweeney Todd movie with Depp cuts out like half the camp of the original. No wonder it was only enjoyable as an edgy high schooler.
The full musical--now that's gold.

I started reading Moby Dick last week and since then I've seen at least one post about whales every day without seeking them out--mostly on Tumblr or Discord where you can't blame it on Algorithm. Gangstalking confirmed???

I hate how every nation is living down to its stereotype because I’m trained to look for complexity in things, yet the USA is run by a caricature of crony capitalism that Soviet propaganda would consider too unsubtle, Russia is run by a Bond villain, the UK is speedrunning Children of Men, etc.
