The Not-So 'Killer' Bee

Pinning 📍

the thing that struck me the most about alien is how aggressively working-class-coded the nostromo is. the set design does an amazing job of evoking a mechanic’s garage in space. the characters are ordinary workers trying to make a buck (“space truckers”), so they should look ordinary. they are exploitable and expendable; forced to investigate the beacon at the beginning to avoid forfeiting their wages. it significantly heightens the tension - they are not jedi, they do not have lightsabers, advanced technology will not magically save them, in fact technology creates the conditions for their exploitation

@Niflettelevrai @dissidentwest i can imagine the crying tiktoks “no bcs wtf is this guy that Bee matched me with” from 4/10s

Homelander acha que bebês precisam de leite materno e tornou isso obrigatório. A Nestlé causou a morte de milhões de bebês de países pobres por terem feito um marketing extremo dizendo que a fórmula deles era melhor que o leite materno com o slogan "a mamadeira seria melhor que a amamentação". Além de colocarem vendedoras da formula vestidas de enfermeiras para dar amostras grátis para mães, que, ao deixarem de amamentar os filhos pra usar a fórmula acabavam por parar de produzir leite e então dependerem da forma.

Let’s do a super recent one: In 1992, a bank was robbed in Los Angeles every 45 minutes.

They're trying to price you out of eating it, while simultaneously airdropped genetically engineered ticks that make you allergic to meat all over the continent

Nah straight to jail

@Aelthemplaer Watergate just seems so pitiful in comparison to lying about WMDs to justify invading Iraq and spending 20 years fucking around in the desert for the benefit of that one country in the Med.

Awww boo hoo Mr Nixon wiretapped the Democrats. The government wiretaps my bowel movements through my phone to advertise McGoy's at me. I think Nixon can get some forgiveness.

you really have to respect how brazen the kars 4 kids scam is. i mean, you cant even describe factually what they were doing without sounding like a crazed antisemitic conspiracy theorist

Even funnier the first one they found only spoke some English so he went and found one that was fluent.

Continental Congress passes a preamble, written by John Adams, that rejects all authority of the Crown. Adams says that he considers this document to be a declaration of independence against Great Britain.

@FuentesUpdates At every turn this guy has been pushing a line that benefits pedo Israel's interests. "The Balenciaga stuff is dumb!" "Stop talking about Charlie Kirk!" "Epstein was cool! Who cares if he SA'd kids!" "Bombing Venezuela is based!" "Stop attacking Israel! It's lame!" Fed.

This is how a snake tells you to stop talking about Epstein and all the other important anti Israel topics we mustn’t stop talking about. He just dresses it up in word salad to make it sound clever. It’s not.

This morning @scratchyjohnson tweeted an important factoid. Squanto, the Indian who spoke English and helped the pilgrims survive, was sold by John Smith to a Spaniards and the deed exists in the city we're in for Excursion. Rather than rolling our eyes, Alan, Gavin & I went to the state archives in Málaga to see if we can find said recorded deed of 20 Indians sold by John Smith to Juan Bautista Reales. We get to the Archives (see Alan's picture below), and a small genial white lab coat wearing gentleman who speaks no English says this is impossible to find. His new boss, the head archivist, Carmen, comes in and says it certainly exists but may be difficult to find. If you only had the year. We tell her it was 1614. She pulls up a list of the books from 29 notaries whose work they have from 1614. She asks who the notary was. We have no idea. They say they can't go through 29 archives to look for it. Also it's all in old Spanish which nobody speaks and it'll be hard to locate even if they know the Notary. So Alan and Gavin get to work. Gavin finds an article in the internet archive that seems to have a partial picture of the document. Carmen and the other archivist decipher the name after 15 min. They find that name in their cross reference. Carmen goes to the vault to look while the lab coat gentleman asks for my life history, driver's licence number and a lien on my grandchildren. Totally worth it. Carmen comes back to say she found the volume. It is tremendously delicate. Opening it may break some pages. Does it have to be today because if so the answer will be no. We ask her if this is interesting to them. Both very seriously nod their heads. We tell them this is very important to the United States and many of our friends. Carmen tells us she will find it but that it takes time. White linen gloves and patience. We tell her to take her time. She says she will take a picture and email it to me. So here's why all this is important: after Squanto was sold by an Englishman to a Spaniard names Reales, said Spaniard brought Squanto and 19 other "inios" to Málaga. He recorded the deed in the state archives. Then a Franciscan priest ransomed Squanto. Squanto became Catholic. Was baptized and confirmed in Málaga. He then made his way to England where he worked and learned English. He paid his passage back across the ocean and found his Wampanoag tribesmen. Then when the Pilgrims landed they found a Catholic English-speaking native who helped them survive their first winter. It is entirely possible that but for a Franciscan priest who ransomed Squanto, the Pilgrims may not have survived their first winter in New England. That's history. American history. And the record of it is in Málaga. In a book. One of 29 books kept by notaries in Málaga in 1614. That are still searchable. This image, when it comes, belongs in the US National Archive.

Get 'em, Mark! Time for these paid-for politicians to move out and let uncorrupted individuals into office to take care of Americans.

Big game hunters in Africa used to carry a Howdah pistol (basically a double-barreled sawed-off shotgun) in cross-draw position specifically to engage animals jumping them from the side like this just saying
