I took a college course on the history of espionage and the professor was a cold war liberal who had an oddly consistent worldview where he regarded Reality Winner and Chelsea Manning as patriotic whistleblowers but despised Snowden as a traitor and told the entire class he should be hanged
this is getting some traction on the other place, but might as well bring it over here

In a way this is what all grieving is about.
something else that’s tough for me to deal with is grieving old… world schemas or mental states. when i was 27 i felt like i had literally won at life and that the entire world basically was like a giant open world MMO that would never disappoint and… remembering that mindset hurts sometimes

We are now further away from the theatrical release of Raiders of the Lost Ark (June 12, 1981) than it was from the year it takes place in (1936). We have reached the Indiana Jones event horizon.

The good news: the president has pardoned the turkey.
The bad news: two hours later the turkey was arrested for running a ponzi scheme and committing acts of gross sexual imposition.

I HATE it when my family argues about politics at Thanksgiving. The Eel-Ariash side are fighting with the Molari-Sor branch over Moonboats while my short little cousin tells stories about running a military district in some Rufelza-forsaken chapparal and dad's bound spirit rattles the dishes.

Audience culture is the worst it's ever been, I swear to god. People forgot how to act. I'm at the theater, trying to enjoy my show, which I've paid GOOD MONEY for, and these two old assholes are in the balcony heckling the life out of the poor bear onstage. Not letting him finish a single joke.
