  1. Should Gov. Murphy be trying to have the largest immigration detention center in NJ?  Wouldn't one phase of an orderly immigration process be to house people awaiting citizenship in a reasonable facility, i.e., not Libya?

  2. I'm going to stop the gallows humor in regard to the deportation.  

    Trump let the vileness out.  It was always there, but some norms kept it contained.

    Going to take some generations to put it back in.

    Damn. The Vatican is a communist anti-Trump state.

    Well, his is nominally Christian, so might have a pet peeve or two with Trump.

  4. I tend to go the distance when it comes to trying to understand the genesis of some of MAGA's concerns.

    This one is an easy one to label the haters.

    Fuck all of them.

    I hear what you're saying, and it's a good comparison. To me, Braveheart feels like a flick from the 1980s, but Gladiator has a more timeless cinematic character to it.

    I heare what you are saying, and it's a good comparison.  But to me, Braveheart was never that good to begin with.  Gladiator is fuckloads better.  Not Spartacus better, because Spartacus has a more timeless cinematic character to it.  And the bad guy drowned in soup.

    Having now seen Flow, The Wild Robot, and Inside Out 2 - I would put Flow 1, Wild Robot 1A. They are both great films, I think Flow gets my nod because of how they did it with such a lower budget and their animation is amazing. I've just been watching your GIF for like 5 minutes and amazed at their production quality.

    That and the very simple soundtrack.  I've seen the thing a couple of times now.  I made a joke about it on another thread but some of the scenes with the cat just traveling in the boat were just straight out of Apocalypse Now.  The movie seemed to be dealing with some very serious shit -- the bird and cat at the top of the mountain, etc.  I was frankly surprised that I didn't find a bunch of tomes about the meaning of the movie on the google.

    I liked Flow. 

    the first 20 mins and this cat was in some shit.

    Still not sure why more folks aren't raving about this. I thought it was kind of epic.  And cat was badass.

  8. I'm trying to think of what I get form India and I think it's just shitloads of curry and basmati.

    Oh, also my favorite dad joke.  You have to say this one phonetically in an Indian accent:

    (American accent) Why is there no Halloween in India?

    (Indian accent) Someone took all the Candy! 

    Spoiler

    Someone took all the Ghandi!

    Show me when Trump has ever visited SF or Alcatraz. He know about it from movies.

    Revamping that to a real prison would be 50-100x the cost of building a new prison with no obvious gain of security.

    Preaching to the choir.  But it's the wrong choir.

    His choir wants the symbol of a gulag.  And would be so delicious in the heart of wokeness.

    The sad thing is he could make his gulag in a place that destroys so much more.

    Mindfulness is tough in the age of the Dotard.

  10. Small note, which I am sure would give the Dotard extra pleasure - the Alcatraz tour (w/audio) is one of the coolest tours ever, especially on a gloomy day.

    Stupidity + self-harm = Profit.

    I love the people that defend this shit by saying he’s doing it to “troll the libs” like that makes it any more presidential and less embarrassing 

    People who defend this shit don't want him to be presidential and can't be embarrassed.

    People who defend this shit defend this shit.
