I remember when George W sent us to war in 2 countries. Both a miserable failure that cost countless lives. He was reelected cause the other guy changed his opinion on the war. Flip flopper. This country has been fucked.

    I’m guessing there’s good jumping on and off points for these types of shows. Like, if you don’t want to watch 1000 episodes, start on episode X and watch till episode Y to get a good complete(ish) story.

    They placed a new amendment on the November ballot, also called Amendment 3, that would restore Missouri’s abortion ban while allowing limited exceptions but also constitutionally prohibit gender transition care for minors — though the state has banned surgeries and new prescriptions of puberty blockers and hormones by law since August 2023.

    In 2024, a yes vote on Amendment 3 protected abortion rights. In November, voters will again be asked to vote yes on Amendment 3 — this time to take them away.

    Yet supporters want voters focused on the specter of children being used as lab guinea pigs, not the abortion rights the amendment would repeal. A new billboard in the St. Louis suburbs urges them to vote yes and “ban transgender surgeries for minors.”

    A website for the political action committee behind the campaign, Her Health, Her Future — whose treasurer is Missouri first lady Claudia Kehoe — declares “OUR CHILDREN are not LAB EXPERIMENTS.” It says Amendment 3 would protect children from “harmful, sterilizing medical procedures” and restore “common sense health and safety standards” for women’s health clinics.

    Neither message explicitly says that the amendment would repeal the constitutional right to abortion that Missourians approved two years ago.

     

    "There Will Be Blood would stand a better chance to be in number 1 or number 2 if it didn't have a big giant flaw in it, and the flaw is Paul Dano," he said on the most recent episode of The Bret Easton Ellis Podcast, noting that he doesn't think the actor could keep up with Daniel Day-Lewis' Oscar-winning performance. "Obviously, it's supposed to be a two-hander, and it's also so drastically obvious that it's not a two-hander."

    Tarantino continued to insult Dano's abilities. "He is weak sauce, man. He's a weak sister," he said.

    "So you put him with the weakest male actor in SAG?" Tarantino responded. "The limpest dick in the world?"

    The filmmaker later clarified, "I'm not saying he's giving a terrible performance. I'm saying he's giving a non-entity performance."

    Ellis then asked if Tarantino had ever enjoyed Dano in any project. "I don't care for him," the filmmaker responded. "I don't care for him, I don't care for Owen Wilson, and I don't care for Matthew Lillard."

     

    2 eggs, turkey, stuffing, hash brown casserole, dumplings and gravy. And all the cheese. Garnish with some cranberry sauce. Salt and pepper to taste.

    Apologies for the lack of picture. I ate it already…

    Edit: I made another one. Here’s pics before and after the extra cheese. Also, I added dumplings after.

     

    If Abbott had stuck with the story that this was purely political gamesmanship, the court would likely have allowed the redraw to stand, based on Supreme Court precedent effectively sanctioning partisan gerrymanders. But by repeatedly tying the process to a court ruling that changed the racial makeup of who can bring legal challenges under the Voting Rights Act, Abbott “explicitly directed the Legislature to redistrict based on race,” Judge Jeffrey Brown wrote in the ruling that blocked Texas’ new map.
