I just need to know if certain trends are innuendo but otherwise the kidlets are being kidlets.
Is this any worse than “Noooooooot” or “You’re mom”?
No, it’s just as obnoxious as all the others.

A oner that never felt like a oner! It was only afterwards when that hit that it was just one shot

I don’t think people realize that winemoms are the backbone of local political power. The social clubs who host the county and town debate and elections? Run by winemoms. The organizers for fundraisers and campaigns? Winemoms.
They are the key to local political power

All I know is that Ambassador to the UK is not a position a career diplomat would ever get, or want really, as it’s one of the cushy gigs given to a donor

NatSec and IR Twitter is great for following The Diplomat btw, if only bc it usually includes phrases like “my spouse, who is a Dr and complains about medical shows, refuses to watch this with me I complain the entire time”

I really try and ignore the original text when it comes to adaptions bc movies have to make changes but GDT makes it so that the creature is inherently another one of his misunderstood monsters when Shelly does not write him as such and even the creature sees himself as akin to Milton’s Lucifer…

You can root for the creature bc he only kills mooks, not any named characters.

The more I think about GDT’s Frankenstein the more annoyed I am about decisions that serve to keep The Creature a small boi who just wants love.

If we’re gonna get rid of the Star Spangled Banner then we should have one that is 100% behind the Union.

You’d think but the cops run a lot of rural america - at best they are genuine in their worry about people DUI’ing at worst they’re worried about their arrest quotas

This is amazing and 100% not what I was envisioning
