It’s such a bizarre lefty belief that the US is the only country in the world that should have the immigration policy that amounts to: “Everyone has the god-given (or Allah-given) right to live here, with no restrictions or concern about who the person is.”

Of course, they’d immediately jump to defending China’s right to determine who can immigrate and be a citizen (which China controls very tightly, I might add). Buncha loser slave morality moron hypocrites.

Blue Man Group w/ Venus Hum: I Feel Love

I don’t really care about the Blue Man Group, but this is worth watching for Annette’s absolutely amazing performance. The band has 87 percussionists (for some reason1) and she just dominates them all.

Also, if I had a light-up dress like hers I’d wear it every fucking day.

  1. And all of them together are not even as good as one John Bonham.

Alien Host

The only good scene in this bad film is when Emily Blunt’s character gets to the studio and all that follows. That starts about 3:15.

The rest of Disclosure Day was Spielberg at this worst, seemingly making a lackluster and lazy homage to superior movies from the 1980s. No one cares about live news shows and TV weather reports anymore, for instance, though this scene still works — especially if you pretend it was filmed in 1988.

Palimpsest

My music app is better than any website and anything commercially available. By far, and it’s not even close.

And I made it with AI in 50 hours.

Yeah, this is all gonna be taken away soon. That’s why I am burning tokens like a madman.

Alone Time

Russell Brand, Rape, And โ€œNot All Men.โ€

Oh, Jesus Christ, this is stupid. I’ve read that moronic study the article references, the one that supposedly shows that 95.1% of men have used a “coercive strategy” to convince a woman to have sex. It has so many errors it could’ve been authored by Jason Arday.

My friends, some of those so-called coercive strategies the study cites include hanging out in a friend group, wanting to be alone where you can talk more easily, and hanging out somewhere private. In other words, getting introduced through friends, making her comfortable, and wanting to be alone with her. No, Iโ€™m literally not making that up. And in the paper itโ€™s even stupider, if you can imagine that. The “private place” item in the study actally reads โ€œsomewhere private and under your control,โ€ because apparently your apartment is a torture dungeon1.

None of that is coercion. It’s nowhere even near coercion! If it were every single woman I’ve ever slept with in my entire life would have been turbo-raping me. Which is fucking ridiculous. Anyone who can believe this casuistry is engaged in some weirdo political project, not attempting to help women or anyone else.

Again, I cannot stress enough how wanting to talk with someone alone is not coercive and is not tantamount to rape.

This sort of clown-ass mendacious perseveration by “progressives” is why no one takes them seriously. Everyone with a billionth of a brain knows that wanting to be alone with your paramour or the person you fancy is not rape. Everyone who is not a talentless horse-fucker understands that the best way to meet someone is to be introduced by friends.

This entire article, the study itself and anyone who gives any credence to any of it are all vile pieces of shit. I cannot express in words how despicably evil that study and those who cite it are.

  1. This study is really just an example of anti-male and anti-sexuality radical feminism.

Romance Disfluency

No one should have a pass to “go crazy.” This is what I mean by (some) women and romantic disappointment.

Anyway, my “go crazy” is throwing people out of helicopters over Somalia. And no one wants that1.

  1. I want that.

Modern women’s (mostly) quest to make romantic heartbreak illegal is absolutely insane to a level I had not previously contemplated.
