@Fletche64618733 No, they were “so” prominent in the web/media CHATTER about the film. The actual promotionals, hardly.

These are facts about The Odyssey. Which begs the question: Why were the actors so prominent in the advertising for this film?

They are sisters separated by only a few years
One of them is the future queen of Spain
The other is often disrespected and overlooked
Guess which is which?

@fedeebongiorno So he can probably recognize racism when he sees it?

The Islanders are colonialists from the British Empire dating back to the 19th century
The islands never had human settlement prior
2 centuries is meaningless to me
The islands should be made an ecological reserve with no human settlement
Victoria Freeman@v_j_freeman
Argentina’s claim to the Falkland’s is no less imperialist than Russia’s claim to Ukraine. Both claims are based on ‘territorial integrity’ but they are trumped by the inhabitants right to self determination. The islanders have no wish to be ruled by Argentina.

@psalm82 @Retrievals1 Good point, it’s THE SENATE who declare if there is a vacancy. Any action by Beshear would result in nothing happening with the actual seat.
English
@Retrievals1 The Governor has no standing to demand a death certificate.
Try posting to McConnell's Senate office or Elaine Chao... she has standing and they may have access..
Also, Mitch may be incapacitated, not dead. That would not create the Vacancy.
This is not on Beshear!
English
If they tables were turned, a republican governor would have filled that senate seat with the most radical maga fascist in 24 hours.
English
@aintscarylarry Not at all. If you don’t mind getting arrested for causing a disturbance in a hospital.
English
I mean, how fucking hard is it to march into a hospital and find out if Mitch McConnell is actually dead? Spoiler alert: He is. Where the fuck are all the investigative journalists? Is that not a thing anymore?
Gina Milan@ginamilan_
Incredible. Mitch McConnell looks 20 years younger and is practically glowing. Dude must really love that shirt. I swear I’m living in The Truman Show at this point, because there is no way this picture is real. 🫠
English
@JanieChuckles @doggintrump Q: does the call for a special election just happen on the governor’s word? No need to be ratified by anyone?
English
@doggintrump I still don’t get why they’re doing this? So his seat doesn’t get filled until a new election?
English
Everybody needs to stop with this shit
This is what Mitch McConnell looked like before he died. YES I SAID IT
He hasn’t looked like the McConnell on the right in over 10 years
This motherfucker is dead. And democrats better get their heads out of their asses and figure out how to fill his seat before it’s too late
English
@antonerable American LEFTISTS- NOT DEMOCRATS, LEFTISTS are not supportive of statehood either.
English
@antonerable What?? LatAm leftists including ARG as a rule strongly support Puerto Rico independence, very much in spite that a majority of PRicans in PR don’t.
English
Can American ‘leftists’ who support Argentina’s claim to the Falklands explain why they support Puerto Rico statehood or, for that matter, Hawaiian statehood?
English
@KwikWarren We all understand it would be just for political optics, right? If when they shut the door in his face, he declares he must assume the man’s dead, a court will almost surely still not let him do anything about it until there’s an actual certificate.
English
Can’t the Governor of Kentucky just stop by the hospital and visit one of his state’s senators? 🤷🏾♂️
Glenn O. Rutherford@Rutherford1414
I like Andy Beshear, but the time has come for the governor to crap or get off the pot. He needs to get aggressive with McConnell's people — pay him a visit, for gosh sakes. Ask to speak to him. DO SOMETHING to determine if the bastard is dead or alive.
English
@TheJoeySwoll Right. “Public accommodation” is different from “public space”. It means management cannot unlawfully discriminate about what paying customers you admit. But they can still establish rules.
English
It’s insane how many people don’t understand gyms are NOT public. You can’t just film people.
English
@ICTheAlchemist Redemption in fact IS for the guilty. See: Zuko.
(OTOH… redemption is not mandatory. Ending with Azula broken and defeated IS narratively acceptable. )
English
This actually highlights a common misconception.
Redemption =/= forgiveness.
No one has to be willing to forgive Azula for her to redeemed; redemption is a personal choice one makes for themselves, forgiveness is the choice of others around you.
Daimeon Kennedy 𓃵@ChibRisky
Azula had a bad childhood, but that does not automatically make her sympathetic or deserving of redemption. She must first admit she did wrong things, and people must be willing to forgive her. Zuko and Iroh grew up in the same bad environment but chose to become better. Azula keeps rejecting any chance to change and prefers to stay cruel.
English
If Mitch McConnell is dead or incapacitated, and it appears possible this is the case, what repercussions will Republicans face for lying to the public?
English
@DougWahl1 “Deploy the State Police to his hospital bed…” but is he even IN Kentucky?
English
Frankly, I am losing faith in Andy!
Your the Governor of the state- find out if Kentucky's Senator is still alive. Don't just send a strongly worded letter- deploy the state police to his hospital bed. Get on the state plane and see him yourself.
Andy Beshear is considering running for President, but the way he has botched Mitch McConnell's health crisis makes me wonder if he is ready for the job.
English
@Laurie0801 Got to say: if under the law the governor doesn’t have the authority to compel it, then he should SAY so (and cite it).
English
@MauroSports24 It is going to be a good contest. Both sides are powerful and hard nuts to crack.

❌ Motivos por los que España NO ganará mañana la final
・Argentina llega invicta: 7 partidos, 7 victorias
・Va por el bicampeonato, algo que nadie logra desde Brasil 1962
・Sus 7 triunfos seguidos igualan el récord de Brasil 2002 — con la final aún por jugar
・Ya remontó dos veces (a Egipto y a Inglaterra): sabe sufrir y ganar
・Messi busca su segundo Mundial y la 4ª estrella de Argentina
✅ Motivos por los que España SÍ puede levantar la copa ↓

@markoah The US commenters have a habit of thinking “freedom of expression” means “say anything with no consequences whatsoever”.
English
Of course, Argentine players have the right of freedom of expression under US law; they cannot be sent to prison for their Malvinas banner. But it was in violation of FIFA rules. The law of the land is one thing; the rules of a game are something else.
Rob Harris@RobHarris
Revealed: The White House backs the Argentina players right to protest about the Falklands at World Cup matches and rejects calls (led by the UK government) to punish them. Trump’s World Cup chief Andrew Giulani told me it’s about first amendment rights on freedom of expression

@davidmunster69 @IonCarnation Mi oro, si alguno, se lo robó Castilla. “ladrón que roba a ladrón…”

@cheod01 @IonCarnation Cuantas toneladas de oro se robó england en sus barcos para la reina lol

All this Falklands discourse has shown Leftists completely fail to internalize that colonies can and do turn into colonizers themselves. You can't really call what Argentina and Chile did to Patagonia anything other than colonization.

@souljagoyteller The “engineering” if anything is for engagement: a matter of avoiding things like having FRA/ENG or ARG/ESP already in the round of 16 that would then lose you a big audience for the last 2 weeks.
English
One really boring part of the World Cup is that it seems to be engineered to make dark horse/underdog victories impossible
