A large person, in Canada. Father to two, smaller persons. Wife guy. Dual citizen, a modicum of discipline.

Proud liberal. Hobbesian. Unix apostate, Classic Mac OS revanchist, tilter at path-dependent windmills. Emacsist.

If your concern is the rule of law, you should support amnesty for illegal immigrants, so as to avoid the creation of a permanent underclass that is alienated from the protections of law

I would go further and say that they need to be delivered to the ICC.
The only legitimate response, by a future Democratic admin, to an attack on a NATO ally by this criminal gang is to prosecute, as a war criminal, every single person involved from the lowest private to the commander in chief.

i’m creating a new conspiracy theory that the reason that there’s so much film discourse with people not understanding what they watch is because there’s two versions of every film and they show different theaters a different version at random

Catching up on the new season of UK Traitors, and, uh, a straight up Khornate challenge? This is my kind of show!

This is perhaps my least Red Tory belief, but I am serious. No liberation without women's liberation, and that INCLUDES pregnancy.
I am completely serious we absolutely should be funding a moonshot to build artificial wombs

WHAT DO WE WANT?
PARTHENOGENESIS!
WHEN DO WE WANT IT?
NO LATER THAN NINE MONTHS FROM

Now, do you think there might be a *reason* I waited til now to cover someone who was on Island Records, who worked with Jimmy Cliff, who converted to Islam like Richard Thompson did, whose producer was Yardbird Paul Samwell-Smith, who supported The Who on their last pre-Tommy show?

AOC: I want everybody to understand that the cuts to your health care are what’s paying for this. You get screwed over to pay a bunch of thugs in the street that are shooting mothers in the face.

I always loved the Chicago River and am delighted by the rehab it’s undergone in the last thirty years.
My favorite Twitter prompt was "RT this with your home river," so reskeet this with your home river.

Mine is the Patuxent.
