She can hardly claim to be surprised: they did paint a giant warning/prophecy underneath the Eiffel tower.
Yes, this is really there [edit: was? painted 2016, not sure if it was permanent]. Here's some other cultural enrichment from the same artist.
Cultist Simulator is a pretty solid game, though I'm fairly sure that the devs are probably pozzed.
The cultist sim dev is of the Alec Holowka variety, which is to say likely degenerate trendy progressive type, whom the feminist machine turned on and tried to ruin (disclaimer: half-remembered facts and personal opinions mixed here). Alexis Kennedy - who is also the author of the Fallen London universe though no longer involved with those games - suffered a MeToo attempt by spiteful workplace harpies, who complained that he was horrible and creepy and pursued inappropriate workplace relationships with infant female children aged 20+... all that usual shit. I think he mentioned feeling suicidal for a spell, but unfortunately for his attackers they weren't quite able to get him to kill himself like Quinn did with Holowka, perhaps partly because of the support of the 'victim' of his workplace advances whom he married and remains married to. I believe the dev name Weather Factory now refers basically to him and her.
Long story short, you're inadvertently opposing cancel culture by supporting them, although these types typically never learn so don't imagine there's some kind of conservative hero getting the benefit.
They recently put out Book of Hours which I bought and like, but despite letting it take up a lot of my time, it's impossible to recommend universally. It's basically Cultist Sim with a more colourful table and almost all of the pressure and fail states shaved off, so it ditches the febrile tension of that game, but also many of the parts that made it a game at all. What's left now is a kind of RNG-dependent delve into a chill, text-driven larp as someone restoring an old house and poking at hidden mysteries - but not exactly a game as much as it is a set of recipes and calculations you have to balance and discover.
“Anyone who wants to thwart the establishment of a Palestinian state has to support bolstering Hamas and transferring money to Hamas,” Netenyahu reportedly said at a 2019 meeting of his Likud party. “This is part of our strategy — to isolate the Palestinians in Gaza from the Palestinians in the West Bank.”
These exact comments have not yet been confirmed by other sources. But the Times of Israel’s Tal Schneider wrote on Sunday that Netanyahu’s reported words “are in line with the policy that he implemented,” which did little to challenge and in some ways bolstered Hamas’s control over the Gaza Strip. Moreover, Schneider notes, “the same messaging was repeated by right-wing commentators, who may have received briefings on the matter or talked to Likud higher-ups and understood the message.” Some Netanyahu confidants have said the same thing, as have outside experts.

You're doing this wrong. Videos don't matter. The fact that you don't want the medical procedure should have more weight than any number of videos. Sounds like you're hoping for some hail mary meme or deboonk vid that can demolish her with facts and logic, but if we're 2 and a half years deep on this thing and the shittiness of the jab hasn't sunk in, she has to be immune to muh facts and logic. You could tell her what was obvious in 2021, that the vaxx makes you more likely to catch covid and taking it is literally the opposite of protecting grandma, but why would she listen now?
Without knowing your mum, I can't be certain that there ISN'T some piece of media that will slacken her attitude, since these people are completely unpredictable - I guess try Del Bigtree's docu 'Vaxxed', if she's prepared to sit through a movie - but you're probably beating on a locked door at this stage.
And anyway like I say, it's missing the point. 'You can live under my roof if you undergo a medical procedure' is a tenant agreement that only a stupid or evil person would offer and only a stupid person would accept. Since you don't want it, your answer should be 'no, I'm not taking it, and if you insist on my taking it then you will never see or hear from me again.' That really is the bottom line. Or else play russian roulette with dangerous, failed medical tech and give your landlord sovereignty over your bloodstream.
I understand you're already jabbed but sunk cost is a fallacy. Don't con yourself that you can go to 4chan and figure out the correct dosage of carrot juice to 'flush' out any of this shit. The only guaranteed way to dodge problems with these jabs is to expose yourself to them as little as possible.
Ach, Ishmail, howdya vork this golem?! It's outta control, gevalt, vat button do I push??
He said there was video, so where is it?
All the normies have seen horrible things from this conflict. Hundreds of bodies lying around, Israeli babies tossed around like footballs by Hamas, women raped... I've seen people claiming witness to all these. Apparently on Facebook you can see all this shit Just Before It Got Deleted (tm).
I guess I was going to the wrong source, scrolling war gore threads on /pol/ for days, because all the violence I saw was a couple of dead bodies being abused, a couple of hostages being roughed up, and a woman with mud/blood on her sweatpants.
Fascinating!
Understanding low COVID-19 booster uptake among US adults
The purpose of such a study is not innocent enquiry. They're not interested in finding out the shortcomings of their product. Instead it's the vaccine hesitant public who are assumed to be wrong in their behaviour and these questions are asked as a way to figure out how to... correct it.
If you're ever approached about this kind of thing yourself, remember to give the most acerbic, radical and vicious antivaxx answer ever, or no answer at all. Don't participate in their data gathering exercises as to how best craft the next medical propaganda campaign.
Also 'say they abused you' violates the mantra they want everyone else to adopt, which is 'believe all women'. Of course women know that women lie about abuse, but they don't just casually advertise the fact as a boast.
It's the first I've heard of 'Peacock' the streaming service which owns it. The name made me think of the MSNBC logo and... sho nuff, it's an NBCUniversal property. So the article itself is some purity testing from a fellow cultist, indicating unhappiness with the purity of their propaganda for not excluding an enemy (Mel) from the payroll.
Yes this isn't just some attention-whoring rogue feminist. Just check her infobox on shittipedia or wherever, she's been well integrated in key departments and committees for years. They all have her back.
Her constituency was a 'conservative' safe seat and she was their representative after the previous guy, a former RAF airman, retired in 2010 (in an expenses scandal). She was the slop (or as the French say, salope?) that the Tory party served up for their voters there, if they wanted to avoid the seat turning red.
Also she's now a Lord, so there's no question of electing her or unelecting her any more.
I still think this is 100% the mRNA shot he took
July 2021 collapse, you say? Lines up perfectly with the rollout, although wait long enough and some retard vaxxshill will show up and insist that it doesn't or that Odenkirk's unvaxxed. I saw some even try to insist Bieber was unvaxxed despite jetting around the globe for shows mid-pandemic.
Sounds like the kind of guy who'll do well in prison, anyway.
Ireland is attempting to ramp things up. The establishment and the normies here basically live as a satellite state of the USA and the health institutions (eg. care homes) are bringing back masks, albeit so far only for workers. However it's very difficult for Ireland to go full retard if the UK stays relatively calm, as was demonstrated when Boris lifted restrictions in 2022 and it immediately nuked Ireland's vaxxpass momentum.
I'm sure the people who voted for Brexit are mad about it being a mess. That doesn't mean they regret it.
This is not the first time cultish neoliberals have tried to push this narrative. Not long after the referendum, the medium - I'm going to experiment with not saying 'the media' for a while, since it's not a plurality, it's a singular thing - deluged the British public with nightmare scenarios and artificial trauma. They soon tried to insist that some huge percentage of Brexiters regretted their vote and that it was cause for a new referendum.
They had a chance to test out their theory in 2019. Corbyn was a not-so-secret pro-Brexiter but he was deluded and strong-armed by the Blairites and feminists around him to change his election tack, to one where he promised to 'revisit' the question of Brexit. Oh wow, what a shock, it was Labour's most crushing defeat in over 100 years. Cue Vox and the usual suspects jumping to write 'UK election results: Labour’s crushing defeat, explained', in any way that could possibly avoid treating that election as a second Brexit referendum.
Expect them to keep sabotaging the principle of Brexit and then pretending to themselves that any dissatisfaction with that outcome is vindication for them, until they get another chance to force people to vote the 'correct' way.

Yup, the entirety of Western civilisation is operating under a de facto self-censorship of anything that caters to normal male heterosexual desire and traditional gender roles. Islamic censorship is an enemy system, but I have bigger enemies much closer at hand, in the woke monolith that brazenly seeks to control everything I can say at home. It isn't even a 'LetThemFight.gif' scenario; I'll downright cheer for any force that stops my domestic enemies spreading their disease worldwide.
It's a surprisingly good article and right on the money. Where does he say he wants it censored?
Don't shit on degenerates for their rare glimmers of awakening to healthier instincts. The game is full of horny, cringey sexuality written by and for ugly women or gays, because that is the only kind of sexuality which is allowed to thrive openly under the current progressive paradigm. All the characters are Bioware-sexual so you can't even attempt any same sex friendships without the risk of a stunning brave negro in cornrows wanting to get on his knees and suck your type B body genitalia.
If a journospawn plays this and starts to feel sick, that's good. Shows there's still hope. Even better if they say so. I still don't want it censored, because it's nothing to do with me - I saw this shit for what it is a mile off and will never play it.
'Noooo, they're OUR negroes!! Everything that occurs within a black skin, everything within a black mind, it's only supposed to serve US!!
We made it so simple for them, "Not woke = blackness revoked" and they STILL can't behave?!
YARR, CONFISCATE THEIR BROWN HIDES, THEY ARE OURS'
These are my favourite kind of leftist breakdowns, because it becomes the really funny overt kind of racism without them even noticing or caring. Although it reflects really poorly on the blacks who don't get angry at the notion of their race existing to serve activists.
Appreciate the story, I missed this from last month. There is a presentation of the report here. To anyone who is able to make it through the 10-odd fuckin hours of it, a summary would be cool.
But you can preview how they're already trying to dilute, bury and disown this on the website:
Dr Croft is an independent expert. The views expressed in his report are his own professionally informed opinions. The contents of the report, in the same way as any other evidence received by the Inquiry at this time, do not in any way pre-empt the eventual conclusions and recommendations the Inquiry will make.
ie. we reserve the right to say this guy is a kook and completely ignore him. Also the BBC was getting in early with smear articles implying the author is a gravedancing anti-vaxxer.
If all else fails, the retarded scots can simply dismiss him because he's obviously English with a posho English accent.
spez: damn this Dr Croft looks and sounds young for 70 years old. Immediately much more trustworthy in health matters than eg. the walrus-sized public health nurse I butted heads with yesterday.
There's another response in the paper repeatedly answering "I’m just here for the gift card" to each question. Seems there was one up for grabs.
I wonder if this whole thing wasn't a trap to prey on students' greed for a gift card, in the hopes of exposing all the young wrongthinkers in the institution.
The Fox article doesn't include half of the best 'malicious' responses. worth a read for them, eg:
Disability: "I’m sexually attracted to the thought of being eaten alive. I know this sounds like a joke, but I’m being serious. I’m a macrophile/vorephile and I jack off almost every night to the thought of a giantess women shoving me up her ass (to dip me in her sauce) and then throwing my body into her giant mouth. This isn’t a joke. I’m sexually suicidal and I jack off to death. The doctors say I have a disease but I find that really fucking hard to believe"
It's always apostates to the cause who get the harshest treatment.
I second the recommendation for Natsume Yujincho ('Natsume's Book of Friends'). Girls seem to love it, on the Japanese audience side at least. A sadboi goes around solving ghost problems (a lot like Mushishi) while experiencing pathos and learning the value of family and friends along the way. Apparently the mangas are mostly translated now but all I've seen is the anime, which is certainly good. Personally I rate it a bit above Mushishi, which is too dragging & contemplative for me.
If I were a cool nerd uncle I'd probably just rip them all off 9anime and stick them on a thumb drive for the kids to watch, but maybe you're the kind of cool uncle who stays within the law.
I don't know if they'd be into it, but my own favourite pick for a slower, sedate story which could(?) be enjoyed by girls is Uchouten Kazoku ('The Eccentric Family'). It's another mix of folklore and slice of life set in Kyoto, based on works by the same author who did Tatami Galaxy and The Night is Short, Walk on Girl, and shares vibes with those anime, if you're familiar, but it's somewhat less surreal and out there. Don't be misled by what seems to be a tranny/trap-fuel first couple of episodes.
Time to buy one and wear it to make people uncomfortable. Legitimately tempted.
