Tie Firefly on the altar, get your favorite sacrifical knife, and let's summon some The Expanse!

I would sacrifice this a hundred times over to get the Expanse finished.

Watching more tax dollars then I will generate in my entire life be wasted on trying to blow up a drawing of a drone on the ground and crying tears of joy that we are going to lose and the American empire will fall

I will add one last thought. Many of the responses from Democratic lawmakers and liberal commentators (even the good ones) contain some ambivalence - some hope that perhaps the fall of the Iranian regime, even at the hands of Donald Trump, will be for the best. I understand why. I am the son of an Iranian immigrant. Ultimately I want freedom, democracy, and dignity for the Iranian people. The problem is that I've seen the American government promise all of those things a hundred times, and I've never seen them deliver it once.

i just want a big man in a trenchcoat and a hat to grab me by the wrists in the rain and ask me, almost shouting, if i told anyone about our meeting and then the lights from an approaching car flash our shadows against a brick wall and he sprints away down an aalley as i fall to my knees and weep

This is the wrong country for healthcare metaphors

We really do need to hammer home reducing police budgets and using them to bolster teacher salaries immediately. The fact we have these massive goon squads playing candy crush all day at their jobs meanwhile teachers are having to get second incomes is frankly embarrassing as a rich country.

This would carry a lot more weight if appealing to the labour aristocracy was ever going to result in anything but "export all the misery, but give me healthcare too" social democracy. It's time for ameriKKKans to act in solidarity with the global proletariat.

"President Trump is about to make his speech on Iran, where-"

You bolt awake. Circuit City still exists and they have those displays where you can play this new game called Halo on the fancy Microsoft Xbox console. The controllers are big as fuck, but you've never had so much fun killing aliens.

Two figures stand in an alleyway at night in winter. The trees are bare. The houses, stark and angular. A gigantic condo looms behind them, its facade lit up by the moon. Two young women emerge from the dark. A younger one and and an older one. The younger one has long dark hair, she wears a toque and puffy coat. She has rectangular glasses. She lights a cigarette while the older one looks on. The older one has her long dark hair tied in a ponytail. She has a fringe of hair resembling an up arrow. She wears a scarf and black peacoat. She has round glasses. She observes the younger one take a puff. The younger one says "Dad would kill me if he knew I was smoking." The older one implores "pleae let your big sister be a laign influence on you." She turns to look her sister in they and points out "you only turn nineteen once! Celebrate by indulging in newly legal vices!"

the deeper we slide into this moment the clearer it gets that "morale" is not a fake concept. pepping up your guys, showing each other unconditional love, loudly reaffirming things that are true, and making and engaging with uncompromising art are more important than ever. you gotta do it every day

Monopolies, oligarchy, the striving for domination and not for freedom, the exploitation of an increasing number of small or weak nations by a handful of the richest or most powerful nationsβ€”all these have given birth to those distinctive characteristics of imperialism
