I love all cultures, white culture, dutch culture, french culture, vietnamese culture, indian culture, any culture you can imagine. I find them all so rich with lessons to learn from, delicious food to try, unique ways of looking at the world and morality.

It is why there is nothing that will send me running from a person faster than to hear them be hateful towards any culture. Those people have issues and while I hope one day they grow past them I dont need that shit in my life.

Think of the Jet Stream as a full-support bra for the Polar Vortex.

Now think of global warming as a clothes dryer.

We dried that bra on "hot" too many times and destroyed all the supportive elastic....

...this is why you get Loose Boobies of Deathly Cold.

I'm currently living in Greece. Most Greeks, along with most other Europeans think that Britain has lost the plot completely. It's almost impossible to overestimate the reputational damage being done to the country by the self-serving ambitions and cowardice of the majority of its elected representatives.

At least Ziggy Stardust had five years to save the world. MPs have only fifty days (or thereabouts) to press the government to either revoke Article 50 or make proper provision for a second referendum.

I prefer the candor that Bolton and Mnuchin are providing here about their real motives for caring about Venezuela to the bullshit Freedom, Democracy and Liberation tripe that the US media and the bipartisan DC class self-lovingly recite: https://twitter.com/BasavIPS/status/1090690330515685379

The prince reached for his lover with shaking hands. He gazed up at him through long lashes. 'It's truly over?'

The Beast, as they called him, took the prince's slender hands in his own heavy paws. 'It's over,' he said. 'The enchantress is gone.'

The prince drew his leonine lover into a gentle kiss.

At last, the Beast was free to love unchained.
