I'm telling you, we can definitely start deradicalizing normie Democrats (yes, they exist). Getting them to break with the radical Left and step away from hate, Woke, and socialism is all at our fingertips, and as it happens, the Woke Right increasingly looks like fools.
We now have at least EIGHT Democrat candidates, all in red states, publicly breaking with their party on aspects of gender ideology—including men in women’s sports, taxpayer-funded sex changes, and secret school transition.
➡️ They see the writing on the wall: a cultural shift is underway, and they want to win.
*** @jonahowheeler went first in a purple state. He’s a rare exception because his convictions are genuine.
Trans ideology is a religious cult that demands absolute fealty. It is a house of cards built on lies and ultimately cannot withstand dissent.
But the TRUE test will be Democrats in BLUE states breaking with their party on these issues.
That will require a cultural shift in a blue state — voters sending a clear message that they no longer support these policies.
Colorado is that litmus test.
If Props 134 and 135 pass, Colorado will become the first blue-state domino to fall.
We MUST pass Prop 134 & 135❕
God I hate Kenneth Branaugh. Once you get comfortable with Shakespeare's language, you see what a hack this guy is.
In case you worry (as I sometimes do) that you're being too chauvinistic about Western civilization.

I'm happy for the French. They're getting what they want!
Over 4,000 Jews moved from France to Israel this year so far, and the number is expected to reach 5,000 by the end of the year. This is the 1st year since the fall of the Soviet Union that any country other than Russia is the origin of the most immigrants. (Source: @MakorRishon)

I'm listening to the Sold a Story podcast season two, which is on math education in the US, and it is enough to give me an aneurysm, seriously. The season opens with a bunch of little kids' voices doing very basic algebra, and you learn later that these are poor Black four-year-olds, and all of them are getting the problems correct. Oh, and they're super engaged.
Apparently, there was a group that figured out you can have kids go very fast in math if you just did direct instruction. But somehow, culturally, this was deemed "too hard" and too much of a "pressure cooker" for little kids.
It's pretty funny because it's not like there was any high-stakes testing or anything. It literally was just teaching the kids instead of "letting them discover it themselves."
I did a master's in education, and there was a lot of content in the program about equity, and how socioeconomic class, parental habits and attitudes, and level of education really shape a kid's academic achievement. It's just infuriating to hear that when they discovered a teaching method that works in spite of these disadvantages, it was thrown out as being, I guess, somehow not "fun" enough. It's difficult to believe that they didn't actually have ulterior motives.

5 good horror movies:
1. The Night of the Hunter
2. The Fly (1986)
3. Rosemary's Baby
4. Poltergeist
5. The Thing
But only 2 of them scare me. Horror is an overrated genre🤷♂️
Okay, I need to understand how we are defining horror, because I see a lot of films on the thread below that I’d put in the suspense or thriller category. Signs? Gremlins? Jurassic Park? 🧐 I will have to give this some thought.
I thought horror movies were much darker, always extremely violent and scary and disturbing, and usually ended with several protagonists dying and the monster or villain either going free or leaving it unresolved. Usually a supernatural element or some kind of monster. So Psycho, the Exorcist, the Ring, etc.
My list would be:
1. The Shining
2. Psycho
3. Jaws
4. King Kong 1933 version
5. The Blair Witch Project

That computer isn't thinking, ffs. Neural networks have been sorting mail since the 70s. They just bolted a few together. They can't do anything more without massive amounts of data and power. It's a nice stunt, that's all.
