This is literally the plot of the short lived AMC show RUBICON (2011)

people like Sabrina Carpenter saying essentially "decent people don't want the stench of ICE or this White House anywhere near them" to an audience of millions that includes a lot of young people helps empower them against ICE while reminding ICE agents that everyone hates them, both big wins

Sabrina Carpenter made the White House delete their fuck ass tweet.

A classic Charlie Brown Hoes moment. Anyone can just declare anything the Whatever of the Year. Gloss is the official finish of the year 2025 or whatever. Flint is the stone of the year! Anything!

People are so fixated on heroic fantasy they have to call a story "ambiguous" when it is clearly about a traditional laconic sheriff/cowboy just straight up LOSING the battle against evil, because he can't figure out how to face evil without becoming evil himself and he is (reasonably!) scared!

Also there have been very few superhero metaphors as strong as "rage is as unhelpful to you as punching mist would be because your real problems are not material but psychological"
It's been ages since I last saw it, but I remember being generally positive about Ang Lee's Hulk and it being such an odd adaptation that definitely doesn't feel like it was designed by committee has only grown its esteem in my mind.

It's overly simplistic to suggest this is money that would've gone to other university aspects like education and research b/c this is to some degree donor-funded and those donors care about football and not those other things. But it's still galling and grim to compare faculty and these parasites.

Trump, continued: "What the Somalian people have done to Minnesota is not even believable. It’s not even believable. And a lot of it starts with the governor. A lot of it starts with Barack HUSSEIN Obama, because that’s when people started coming in... They want to kiss our country good night."

One thing I always want to ask these masculinity entrepreneurs is why men can’t look to women as role models, and can’t see in women models of human virtue and thriving that are worth emulating. After all, women look to men for these all the time.
Sure, Galloway is better than Peterson
But he still believes the natural order of things requires men to be supreme. Men must protect, provide and procreate. It's dressed in progressive language, but it's fundamentally a patriarchal box to trap men in
