i'm actually not surprised at all by this and unfortunately i do think a large part of this is because of sprayed edges. publishers are making physical copies sooooo gorgeous and irresistible.

Again: Ta-Nehisi Coates was not wrong - people who do not draw a line at genocide, will not draw a line at democracy. They are extremists by their nature.

hey remember when a bunch of middle-aged drunk korean lawmakers climbed the locked gates to the national assembly to hold an emergency session after the president gave illegal orders to the military, all of which ended with said president being sentenced to prison

We're alive to love things, learn things, and make things. That's it. That's our whole task in our short bright flash of life. Love, learn, and create. The more love, learning, and making stuff you put in the world - the love, harmony, beauty, justice, compassion and mercy of existence - the better.

I don’t know man if capitalism has just resulted in a small network of pedophiles destroying all life on earth then perhaps we should consider that it is a complete and utter failure as a system

The USPS posting a NINE BILLION DOLLAR LOSS!!! sounds terrible. Certainly worse than if you said "USPS costs thirty dollars per person per year" even though that means the same thing and more accurately describes a government service

This is why we read romance, folks! And it doesn’t meant the journey to that HEA feels any less earned in the process.

has the 60-minute CECOT segment available on his channel. Watch it while you can. In other places, Paramount has taken the video down - "copyright," don't you know. Share. The more who witness, the better.

PSA if you want to watch all the Heated Rivalry episodes leading up to the release of e6, you'll have to start 4 hours and 3 minutes before. 4 hours and 28 min if you need to budget for commercials. that's around 8/7:30pm for ET
