I think my biggest betrayal is that it feels like they have not nurtured upcoming generations. we've watched them cut the knees out from people who get the base excited instead of mentoring them, it's aggravating as fuck.

The Larger Minion hopes everyone had a fantastic Tongue Out Tuesday!

#TongueOutTuesday #Cats #CatSky #CatsOfBlueSky #BlackCats

Close up front view of The Larger Minion standing on all four and looking at the camera. We see his face and chest. His mouth is open and his tongue is out but curled to the side as he cleans the side of his mouth. We can also see his bottom teeth. Light from outside is reflecting off one eye making it appear blue green while the other eye is shaded and therefore yellow.

some of this language sounds pretty "provocative" and "racially charged" if you ask me

POLITICO: “.. They referred to Black people as monkeys and ‘the watermelon people’ and mused about putting their political opponents in gas chambers. They talked about raping their enemies .. and lauded Republicans who they believed support slavery.

There is simply no equivalent, not even close, of this anywhere on the center or far left. There is no ‘both sides’ here, media.

"Together, the messages reveal a culture where racist, antisemitic and violent rhetoric circulate freely — and where the Trump-era loosening of political norms has made such talk feel less taboo among those positioning themselves as the party’s next leaders."

Can't call them fascists?

The boring and obvious take that anti-woke positions have the effect (and in many cases the intent) of making it acceptable in polite circles to be a degenerate racist was and remains correct.

Whooooooo.

MR. KHOJASTEH: Your Honor, with respect, do you
doubt the fact that a retainer [sic] is in place in -- a
detainer is in place?
THE COURT: I absolutely doubt the fact until I see
it. Because you know what? You all have taken a position over
and over again that you have done things lawfully, and then a
witness gets on the stand yesterday and admits you haven't done
it lawfully.
MR. KHOJASTEH: What did the witness say yesterday
that was unlawfully?
THE COURT: I'm not here to answer your questions,
sir. You're here to answer mine.

“When Luke Mosiman, chair of AZ Young Republicans, asked if New Yorkers in the chat were watching an NBA playoff game, Giunta responded, ‘I’d go to the zoo if I wanted to watch monkey play ball.’ Giunta elsewhere refers to Black people as ‘the watermelon people.’”

we found that most protein powders and shakes have more lead in one serving than our experts say is safe to have in a day (🧵)

Some superb bracket work from Siddhant here.

At the center of “Tron: Ares” is a woefully miscast Greta Lee (“Past Lives”) and an unfortunately visible Jared Leto ("accusations from underage girls"), making even more unpleasant an already haphazard cinematic headache. joysauce.com/tron-ares-is...

‘Tron: Ares’ is a waste of time and talent

Greta Lee gets stuck inside a digital mess alongside Jared Leto in Joachim Rønning’s threequel to the 1980s classic.
