CalArts president froze for like 45 seconds due to student booing. Chairwoman of the board stepped in and chastised the graduates. Asked the president if he wanted to continue and he said “You tell me,” then he left the stage and the campus.
Analogy time (bear with me):
Imagine a five year old kid who hasn’t been acting like herself, so her parents take her to the doctor. Doc looks her over and says, “Unfortunately, your daughter has cancer. It’s highly treatable with surgery and 6 months of chemo.” (1/)
When I saw an influencer on Instagram talking about this I thought it had to be an exaggeration or distortion of the bill—an overly-simplified summary that missed some nuance in order to cast them as Disney villains.
I read the bill.
The Virginia Democrats *surgically* carved themselves (and ONLY themselves) out from their gun control measure.
They are moving shamelessly without any pretense, like nothing I've ever seen before.
It is the funny nature of all these vibes-based gun laws that continues to make shit like this keep happening.
A 20-year-old wants to carry a gun? Gotta have "adult" supervision.
Local age of majority (AKA "adult") is 18 years old lol.
So two 18-year-olds could go out, and only one could hold the gun at any time, but it'd still be okay.
🚨BREAKING: New insane breakdown of the MASSIVE PROFITS Nancy Pelosi made from Stock Trading in Congress vs world famous Billionaire, Warren Buffett.
This is absolutely insane.
BREAKING - A woman is going viral after exposing the FBI under Biden hid that armed civilians stopped nearly half of all criminal shooters in 2024.
“Armed citizens stopped 48% of all shooters last year, but the FBI lied about those numbers. They recorded none. Zero percent.”
You know what DOESN’T lead to negligent manslaughter or murder charges? Shooting a woman holding her baby in the head even though she was clearly unarmed.
That of course is IF you’re an FBI agent named Lon Horiuchi and you’re shooting at Victoria Weaver.
You can also poison and kill 10,000 Americans during prohibition, maiming and striking blind countless more. You can also burn women and children alive at Waco.
It’s the ultimate get out of prison free card.
The clean mirror is maybe the greatest piece of art in the last 10 years. It represents the moment that the high-art of the elite is confronted by the sensibilities of the working class they claim to represent.
Only millionaire dipshits love crappy art that obscures their vision. The working class they claim to admire sees right through their bullshit and fixes their perception so that it is clean and clear and beautiful again.
The upper class says "we are confused and obscured in the broken-ness of social awareness" and the working class says "I got some windex here, let me fix that for you"
the problem with the "alien" "franchise" is that they're trying to build a mythology that explains the alien
this is remarkably inferior to the original premise "there is an alien and it kills you"
