too late now, but you were presented with a chart on CNN tonight about right and left terrorism. The narrative was that historically things were “just about even”, “both sides” etc. this is absolutely not what that graph shows. Those are *stacked* bars.

what i'd like to contribute to the ongoing masculinity discourse is that the truest sign of a fella's manfulness isn't his strength or his height or his successes with women. it's not about his job or how he dresses. it's about whether he has a cell-level desire to dig a big hole at the beach

🚨🚨 So ICE removed all Lorenzo Salgado Araujo's personal effects--wallet, phone, etc--after shooting him before they put him in an ambulance. Is that normal law enforcement practice? Or does it suggest a coverup or attempt to manage information was underway from the beginning?

Spoke to my friend Mitch McConnell for 20 minutes today. He shared the news that Alex Jones has died from some kind of bizarre head explosion alone in the drivers seat of his parked van. I saw the faintest trace of a smile as he told me.

This is especially true if a man is built like a threatened anteater. Miller has relatively narrow shoulders and wide hips, which means there's not much shape through the torso.

Here is yet one more example. Miller's silhouette is similar to the first Palmolive bottle, whereas he would benefit from having more padding and extension, which would create the second Palmolive bottle.

Why would a student choose to go where the govt has begun kidnapping & exiling students & destroying the $ & years of investment they made towards their degree? This will undermine global demand for U.S. higher education services, a $44 billion/year U.S. export, widening our trade deficit.

Every international student has made a huge investment in the United States. Every one has worked for years and taken great risks and made sacrifices to get here. Their families have too. Trashing them without justification is cruel and anti-American. And countless people will never forget.

They're using Rhino Pipeliner 5000, which freezes as sprayed-on curds almost exactly as it hits the surface. Won't flow out, flatten, and self-level like standard epoxy or paint would. Under standing water, the orange peel texture is a perfect scaffolding for algae, bacteria, and general bio scum

HAHAHAhaha! they're making the world's biggest synthetic scum pond!!! The coating is a polyurea used inside pipes. It gels in about 3 seconds, making it non self-leveling. The texture is like an orange peel, the perfect substrate for biofilms.
