Great Mise!

I love that. I'm commandeering it for the use of the glorious revolution.

Eeeek!

Thanks!

Either way, co-opting that image for Trumpaganda is not the win the poster thought it was. However accurate it is.

That image is from Warhammer. I'm not fully up on the lore, but I gather it's the near-dead corpse of their emperor, rotting away in a suit of life-support armour and unable to move.

It'd serve him right.

Oh, look. A one-trick dead horse.

Old age is when, instead of falling, you 'have a fall.'

That seems fair.

Also, don't worry about whether what's in them is what's meant to be in them, or at the correct dosage. And no washing your hands! Water costs extra.

Well, years of experience has taught me that the big hole goes at the top.

But I'd much rather have the jacket.

Ugh.

No doubt it goes on to assert that he dresses better than George Clooney, sings better than Kiri te Kanawa, cooks better than Ottolenghi and smells like freshly cut grass.

Well, someone's clearly having a bit of trouble with executive function these days ... I wonder how long it'll be before he physically lashes out at a reporter?

Oh, hwæt yes!

I loved her version! Simultaneously needed "The boys are back in town" as a soundtrack, and really looked hard at the women in the tale, and the dodgy translations around them.

Mind you, I was on her side already, because of The Mere Wife.

Right?

Also, not to be crass, but the US is haemorrhaging brilliant scientists just now, and we should be scooping them up and giving them what they need to help carry the world (and us) forward.

Also, historically, marriages were officiated but usually not consummated until the girl was old enough to conceive and have a chance of survival after delivering a living baby.

Well after menarchy, which happened later back then.

So child marriage does not justify child rape.

Sometimes you want an improving book. Or a classic.

Sometimes you want charming, easy-to-read escapism.

All are good.

The clanking, rusty balls on that asshole, immigrating here and then demanding an end to immigration.

I wonder if we could convince him to take some of his mates with hhim?

I think he can't bear the look of them getting released over his objections, so he's making it look like it was his idea. I suppose he's also hoping that only the sanitised version gets out ...

Yes, absolutely; flirting, any sort of grooming--any ACTION--is inexcusable.

These cnuts are deliberately arguing that since the thought is understandable, then the actions are justified. It works with "there's a difference between 14 and 8" to imply that raping teenagers is not really rape.

Notice how "raping children" is being elided into "finding teenagers attractive." It muddies the waters between perception and action.

Teenagers are lovely. But they are children. Admire them as they make their way past childhood and towards adulthood.

Just keep your adult hands off them.
