Whenever I teach women to be modest, many undoubtedly respond, “You want us dressed in burkas?!?” No, you’re the ones voting for Muslims, not me. I want women to dress feminine and modest, not covered in a tent.

I have said this before, but movie makers & writers raised on modern media are shit.
Pokemon started because the creator liked collecting bugs and exploring as a kid, not just playing other video games. Inbred Media.
You can't make music out of all samples forever.
So, Terry Pratchett was once asked what books aspiring fantasy novelists should read if they hope to write great fiction. His advice was telling. He encouraged authors to avoid reading much of what passes for contemporary fantasy (what he called “Extruded Fantasy Product,” derivative of Tolkien). “Do not write it,” he said, “and try not to read it. Read widely outside the genre. Read about the Old West (a fantasy in itself) or Georgian London or how Nelson’s navy was victualled or the history of alchemy or clock-making or the mail coach system. Read with the mindset of a carpenter looking at trees.”
Any great fantasy series you can name, from Star Wars to Narnia to Discworld, was written by authors who read voraciously, who read old books and loved old myths, whose minds were so steeped in history and folklore and obscure pulp fiction that they couldn’t have written derivative works if they had tried. We’ll only have great fantasy in this century if we can recover the reading habits of the authors of a previous era.

The plan trusters who have spent the last 9 months calling anyone critical of the Iran war a panican, reassuring their followers that Trump was playing 4D chess and that the patriots were in control is now frantically gaslighting those followers into believing they never did so while pointing the finger at every other plan truster, hoping to sacrifice them to the lions in their stead.
Do not let them lie to you. Do not forget who insisted that the war was based, necessary, short term pain for long term gain, or any other excuse for what everyone knew, prima facie, was a catastrophic move.
The rats are fleeing the sinking ship and praying that in the chaos you'll forget the lies they spent the better part of a year peddling because they know the jig is up and the money spigot is being turned off on their grift.
I never expected any apologies, but I actually have received them. You dont have to say sorry for falling for it, but you shouldn't let the people who lied to you off the hook.

Malfoid and the psychological appeal of the tsundere video is almost complete. Soon... ;)
This is the only good take Paul Graham has ever had in his life.
1) End the war
2) Focus on cost of living/inflation
3) Put America First
4) Change our relationship to Israel
These are all the same thing. The cost of living is high because Israel convinced Trump to start a war with Iran, instead of putting America first.
