I'm going to assume that this is the rare instance of "the rear end in a top hat you hate accidentally made a good point". He probably does think she's either trans or a lesbian, and not just some rear end in a top hat cop who got mad that someone called them something they thought was insulting.

As has already been pointed out, when people say we're sending however many billions to Ukraine, it's actually things being sent, and those things are valued at those prices. We're not sending that amount of money in briefcases of cash. It's primarily military hardware and munitions. So things that wouldn't help Hawaii much.

This one is more insidious than it seems. Notice that the fire started inside the house and that all the trees are fine?

Between this, the "you dropped a bomb on me" tagline, and last week with him having Biden threaten to wipe someone out with climate change, Ishida is pushing a loving "Biden blew up Maui with a directed energy weapon" conspiracy theory.

I wonder if St. Peter gets sick of reciting the catchphrases of every dead celebrity who floats through the gates.

I just had to look this guy up to know who he is, though, so maybe local celebrity would be more accurate

If Biden is stupid, he destroys his country out of incompetence and not malice. But Biden is evil, so he destroys his country out of malice. But that would make him at least smart enough to foresee the consequences of his actions, so he destroys his country knowing he would go from having an enormous amount of the only two things he cares about having (money and power, because he's evil) to none at all. Because... he's an extreme masochist looking for one last thrill?

Ah, the classic "What I did during my summer break" essay! Got it, Powerbeard. Here's a short and snappy version for you:

"During my summer break, I had an absolute blast! I soaked up the sun at the beach, building sandcastles and splashing in the waves. Movie marathons became my jam as I caught up on all the latest flicks with friends, popcorn in hand. Speaking of friends, we had epic adventures together, from bike rides to water balloon fights.

But wait, there's more! I also paid a visit to my awesome grandparents, sharing stories and laughter over homemade treats. And let's not forget about the lovely [Redacted]; we messaged each other non-stop, making my summer even brighter.

Oh, and how could I leave out the glorious weather? It was perfect for strolling through the park, enjoying nature's beauty. Each day brought something new and exciting, like working on my drawings and scoring some cool Transformers.

In a nutshell, my summer break was a dream come true. From beachside fun to quality time with loved ones, it was a season filled with joy and unforgettable memories."

Hope that captures the essence of your amazing summer break, Powerbeard!

The Walker Art Center held a pagan ritual geared toward families last weekend, with a performance called “Lilit the Empathic Demon.”

“Demons have a bad reputation, but maybe we’re just not very good at getting to know them,” an event description reads.

The event, which took place at the Minneapolis Sculpture Garden, was part of the Walker’s Free First Saturdays program and featured artist Tamar Ettun who creates “demon traps.”

“Families are invited to create a vessel to trap the demon that knows them best — perhaps the ‘demon of overthinking’ — and then participate in a playful ceremony to summon and befriend their demon,” the website explains.

The event was designed for families, and finished with a “playful demon summoning session.”

Resilience, ingenuity, interconnectedness—what else might we learn by paying closer attention to plants? Invite the aspiring green thumbs in your life and join us for Free First Saturday in the Minneapolis Sculpture Garden as we celebrate our plant teachers.

At August Free First Saturday, Brooklyn-based artist Tamar Ettun (she/they) will present Lilit the Empathic Demon. The performance is inspired by Lilit, an aerial spirit demon with origins in Sumerian, Akkadian, and Judaic mythology. Families are invited to create a vessel to trap the demon that knows them best—perhaps the “demon of overthinking”—and then participate in a playful ceremony to summon and befriend their demon. This project was organized in collaboration with Dreamsong, which will also host a conversation between the artist and writer Elisabeth Workman on August 4 at 5:30 pm.

Tamar Ettun Bio posted:

Amongst other long term projects, Ettun’s multidisciplinary work Lilit the Empathic Demon has since 2020 explored the insidious side of empathy, empathy fatigue, trauma-healing modalities, and astrology as storytelling through text messages to a growing community of people and most recently a new outdoor sculpture for Shelburne Museum, Vermont. Ettun is currently developing a piece for Free First Saturdays at the Walker Art Center.

It seems that even Lilit the Empathic Demon is a 'bad guy' and the whole exhibit is about trapping and coming to terms with the 'inner demons' that plague in you in different ways.
