Babylon. Everybody hated it, I loved everything about it. The excess, the color, the sprawling epic, the acting, the music. Underrated, underappreciated masterpiece, there will be a re-appraisal at some point.

I avoided it for a long time, finally watched it, and loved it. Why do I ever listen to anyone else?


That profile gives me a bit of a Matt Goenig vibe.


Hey cops! You gonna take that from The Feds? You want everybody to think you’re pussies? Just Fed lapdogs?
The Yellow and White Pages were a private business, and they sold the listings in the Yellow Pages, and also sold upgraded listings in the White Pages. Residential listings were free.
Then they’d drive around and drop them on peoples’ front steps. I knew people that made extra cash at Phone Book Delivery Season.
There were also competing Yellow Pages by upstart companies, especially smaller local Yellow Pages. You might have the big giant book that was the whole city/county, and then have a smaller set for just your suburb. A small local business might spring for an decent ad in the local Yellow Pages, and just put a simple listing on the big one.


They have his name, and video from every angle. It’s pretty much all the evidence they need.


Oh, yeah, that’s going to be fun, when all these narcissists think its their turn to be King Narcissist. Just think about how many people are already talking about replacing him: Vance, Rubio, Don Jr, MTG, Johnson, Cruz, Abbot, DiSantis, etc. I’ve even heard Bannon’s name. And everybody is going to take sides.
When he assumes room temperature, the knives will come out, and the backstabbing will begin.


All this spotlight on pedophilia, and these PedoCons still can’t help themselves.
3 big trucks, and three lanes of cars, pull up, pop the trunk, guy takes out the boxes and bags from the back and tosses them into bins, that are later emptied into the trucks, and you drive away.
And trust they really do pulp your papers without sifting through for the good stuff.
She’s got one, but she thinks the trucks will shred better, and the shreds wont be in her trash where people will know where they came from.
I should note that my mother lives in a gated, active adult community, and there is literally ZERO crime in her neighborhood. If someone started going through someone else’s trash, you’d have a half a dozen busybodies demanding to know what you’re up to.


Oh, yeah, Trump is going to be the most studied president for the next 100 years, and NONE of it is going to be positive. A few MAGAs will write some books, but their MAGAs so they are either stupid or evil, and most of them can’t write anyway, so they’re books will be awful, and will get savaged by every other historian for the next century.


Excellent point. They aren’t admitting that their party failed America, just that their beloved candidate is having a serious health issue. There’s no shame in that.
The trick is to encourage him to spend his time with his friends doing whatever they do. If he’s getting laid, visiting strippers, etc. that’s great, at least he’s not bothering you. He’s going to get tired of banging you anyway. Then when the pre-nup vests, you take the money and run.
My city was big enough that we had to have two separate books, nyah, nyah.
My mom saves up all her junk mail, and takes it to a neighborhood shredding event 2 or 3 times a year. She gets distressed if she misses it. She doesn’t understand why I just toss it all away.
I’ve asked her why she thinks her junk mail address is so valuable, and she’s afraid they will fall into the wrong hands. I’ve explained to her that if it’s on junk mail, it’s already out there being sold. It’s just her name and address, it’s a public record.
I get why she’d want to shred stuff with her SS# on it, but another AARP solicitation?


It’s not that they are rich, we’ve always had rich people. The problem is that we now have rich people with enough wealth to compete with nations, and they are getting even stronger. They are now starting to cut their own deals with nations that benefit them personally, with no regard to the nations, and millions of people that could be harmed by that policy. We’ve already seen Musk manipulate Starlink to steer a war in his direction, and unleash his hacking squad to rig an American election, just so he could use the opportunity to cripple all the government agencies that were investigating his crimes.
And it will only get worse. They are approaching Trillionaire status, and will be even more powerful. How long before multiple trillionaires form an alliance, and build their own personal military?
Eventually we will reach a point where it will become impossible to reign them in, and then we will all wonder why someone didn’t do something about them when it was still possible, like NOW.


Have you NOT been paying attention? They are already doing it. Sure, they are getting pushback on some of their prosecutors, but the next objective is to replace the judges, too, who won’t push back, and will enthusiastically assist MAGA prosecutors into exploiting the system to punish political enemies.
Were only in the early steps. Just like AI, they will learn from their mistakes, and get “better.”
Gorgeous photo, it doesn’t look like Portland is burning to the ground at all.
I see it.
