If the governments job isn’t to secure even basic shit like clean drinking water for its citizens, what’s its actual purpose?! THIS IS WHAT WE WANT OUR TAXES PAYING FOR
White phosphorus ignites instantly on contact with oxygen. It burns at over 800°C. It melts through clothing, skin, muscle — and bone.
In the bloodstream, it becomes a systemic poison. It attacks the heart, liver, and kidneys leading to multi‑organ failure and death.
Monsters.
the trump administration is going to use fucking CYNAIDE bombs on animals??? in their homes??? to get rid of them???? I AM FUCKING LIVID, this shit cannot keep happening!!!
you’d literally have to show this to people and not tell them it’s Power Rangers, bc for whatever reason the name itself has a stigma that tells casual audiences it doesn’t mean anything
meanwhile people were sweating their heads off, stressed out and WORKING working
THEY TOLD AN ENTIRE GENERATION THAT GOVERNMENT WAS THE ENEMY WHILE CORPORATIONS BOUGHT POLITICIANS, CRUSHED WAGES, RAISED PRICES, AND TURNED BASIC SURVIVAL INTO A LUXURY.
NOW PEOPLE WORK HARDER THAN EVER AND STILL CAN’T AFFORD TO LIVE.
BUT SURE… THE BIGGEST THREAT IS FREE SCHOOL LUNCHES AND CHEAPER HEALTHCARE?
MAMDANI DIDN’T JUST MOCK REAGAN.
HE EXPOSED HOW OUTDATED THAT QUOTE SOUNDS IN 2026.
🚨 WHAT THE F*CK! Bill Gates laughing uncontrollably while warning about the “next bio-terror attack”… right as authorities shut down an illegal biolab in Las Vegas.
The same guy who “predicted” COVID is giggling about the next one.
PUT THIS MAN AND ALL CONSPIRATORS IN PRISON!
Festus, Missouri voted out every single city council member who approved of an AI Data Center against their will.
The ones who were up for re-election at least. One of them was an 8 year incumbent who got beat by 40 points.
I think data centers will play a factor in midterms.
"Slaves used to work all day, every day, with no pay. But they got free food, water, and shelter."
"Today, we work all day, nearly every day, and we get paid. But the money we make, we spend on food, water, and shelter."
"We're still slaves. The only thing that has changed is the illusion of freedom."
Pixar hired a chef with three Michelin stars to design the dish in Ratatouille. Then they built the scene around the neuroscience of how taste triggers memory, and got Peter O’Toole to deliver one of the great monologues in animation history.
What you call “taste” is mostly smell. When you eat, molecules rise up the back of your throat into your nose. From there, smell takes a unique route. Every other sense (sight, sound, touch, even the actual taste your tongue picks up) gets filtered through a kind of switchboard in your brain first. Smell skips it. The smell heads straight to the parts of your brain that handle memory and emotion. Which is why one bite of food can drop you back into a moment from 30 years ago.
Ratatouille’s director, Brad Bird, built the entire flashback around this. Anton Ego takes one bite, and Pixar zooms the camera through his pupil into a childhood kitchen. The dish itself was Thomas Keller’s. His restaurant The French Laundry in California has three Michelin stars. He took a 1976 recipe by French chef Michel Guérard called confit byaldi (paper-thin vegetables spiraled over a tomato-pepper sauce) and adapted it for the film. Keller even had Pixar’s producer intern in his kitchen for months to get the look right.
Anton Ego is voiced by Peter O’Toole, the lead in Lawrence of Arabia. He was nominated for Best Actor eight times. Never won. He holds the record (tied with Glenn Close) for most nominations without a win, and once called himself the Academy’s “Biggest Loser.” He was 75 when he recorded the Anton Ego monologue. He died six years later, and it became one of his signature performances.
The speech was Brad Bird’s. In the review he writes the next morning, Anton Ego turns on his own profession. Critics risk almost nothing, he writes. They thrive on tearing strangers apart. The only risk that matters, he writes, is defending new talent when no one else will. He ends with the line everyone still quotes: “a great artist can come from anywhere.”
Ratatouille won Best Animated Feature at the 2008 Oscars, plus a Best Original Screenplay nomination on the strength of Bird’s speech. The film grossed $624 million on a $150 million budget.
In 90 seconds, a cartoon rat and a fictional food critic turn that science into something you can feel. Your best memories live in your stomach.
“I’ve grown crops for DECADES…this year it just STOPPED.”
No bees. No butterflies. No birds.
Crops refusing to grow under a permanent toxic cloud blanket.
This isn’t weather. This is engineered famine.
Our food supply is being deliberately killed.
I’m not joking when I say that this was my introduction to what ‘the internet’ was. Vividly remember being 9 years old and seeing another kid load this up on one of the PCs in the computer room, volume maxed. A 3rd eye opened. Absolute game-changer and it deserves to be preserved
Surely this has nothing to do with the fact that Bill Gates owns a lab in Columbia where he genetically modifies 30 million mosquitoes and then releases them every week into 11 different countries.
