Love the idea of Batman having extensive files on mythical gods, demigods and monsters in case he might have to fight them some day.
jOSEPHINE rIESMANWhile we're talking about The Odyssey, can we take a second to appreciate one of the greatest exchanges of dialogue in the history of superhero fiction?
My cynic sense is telling me they'll just move on to the next masculinity grifter.
Greg SargentGreat point from @moiradonegan.bsky.social on the pod: Trump's gains with young men are vanishing as they realize Trump/Tate brothers faux masculinity isn't helping them: "They’re not being elevated in their own status." Donegan is just brilliant here all throughout: newrepublic.com/article/2135...

The corruption one is entirely the result of social media because it's overrun by chud ragebait about social services fraud so normies are getting it served to them and they take it mostly at face value

This bio reads like a television series that has gone on at least three seasons too long.
Marisa Kabasroald dahl's grandson is a former london-based journalist who once freelanced for the daily dot and then married princess raiyah of jordan during covid but then got divorced and moved to the US where he became a cop in south carolina and just married an american tiktoker
Honestly I don't think starting WWIII would be great.
BladeoftheSunHonestly if China was invading that would great. The best railway in the world, Healthcare is affordable, Housing that gets built, 9 of the 10 best Universities in the world, the fastest advancing country... And so much more. While the West decays under billionaires GREED.

Shocked to hear that somebody who worked on the Platner campaign might not be good at evaluating accusations of sexual abuse
Jack QVery curious what sort of proof this person wants if multiple contemporaneous recountings to other people, including preserved digitally, is not sufficient.

Russia very specifically claims to be the heirs of Constantinople and Kevan Rus (both erroneously) They were the lackeys of the Golden Horde, not their heirs
Hublai (charismatic megafauna)True. Exactly why Russia - the heir to the Golden Horde - and Europe - the heir to the Crusader cults - don't get along. They are still in a 13th century conflict. Which in my opinion is due to the European side. The rhetoric is palpable that Russians are not human etc. #Nazism prospers in the EU.
