Trying to find the dishy but not clearly-racist tabloid full of the worst sorts of disgruntled "royal watchers"--this doesn't exist, does it.
One of the strangest things about the Tabloid treatment of Harry and Meghan today/always has been the elevation of Thomas Merkle, who's clearly a crappy dad on the make.
I mean, I get the Daily Mail wants him as an ongoing source of photos and grievance but why would the other Tabloids elevate him?
Ahhhhh this is why theguardian.com/media/2020/jan…

Without looking, guess how many Democrats are still running for president
Only one to correctly guess is @vermontgmg, at 14. (Yes those of you who want credit for your "in the Democratic primary" as opposed to "Democrats" can say 13) nytimes.com/interactive/20…
@vermontgmg Now, name everybody you can in the above photo without looking them up

My favorite part of this impenetrably bonkers document is this flow chart (credited to the BBC) in which the palaces are represented by a row of modest flats:

One of the strangest things about this controversy (that is going up to SCOTUS next term!) is how.... boring it is? Air duct leakage standards have no right to be this controversial. nytimes.com/2019/06/25/opi…
The line "rogue archivist" kind of does all the work here! Even a rogue archivist isn't going to stray very far from the lawful good quadrant.
Anyways I see the irony of me attempting to sell this as an important issue while periodically bursting out laughing at how ridiculous it is

#NowWatching “X-Men.”

A film franchise with a complicated, but surprisingly important legacy.

Although there were obviously superhero films before, and films like “Blade” are often overlooked, “X-Men” is ground zero for the modern superhero boom.
Of course, it is, quite rightly, impossible to talk about the series without acknowledging that Bryan Singer is a well-documented sexual predator.

This informs the films’ legacy, although it seems under-discussed compared to the emergence of the MCU.

The cornerstone of the modern American popular landscape was laid by a serial sexual predator. Built to a blueprint he laid.

While it seems like the cultural mood has shifted on the “X-Men” films, it’s strange to me that this isn’t the catalyst.

one of the strangest things about having trump as president is how he simultaneously embodies white racial reaction AND every pre-Obama racist joke about how a black president would behave
“put one of them in the white house and next thing you know they’ll be serving fried chicken and making their baby mommas first lady”
anyway wendy’s is delicious and i love the egg mcmuffin but i cannot help but do a “can you imagine if obama had done this” here

@StalinIsBack
1/8 My favorite #quote by #JosephStalin, which explains the scientific, #DialecticalMaterialist explanation of true freedom in material reality, not just as an abstract ideal. #StalinIsBack #StalinLives #JVStalin #Stalin #StalinQuote #StalinQuotes #Truth #MELS #MarxismLeninism
2/8 Having an #objective, #rational, #ScientificSocialist, #Dialectical, & #Materialist viewpoint allows us to accurately see & evaluate & analyze #Truth & #Reality as they truly materially exist in this universe.
3/8 An idealistic, dogmatic viewpoint, which capitalists have, however, makes one irrational enough to 'see' freedom where freedom stays trapped on a piece of paper while people are oppressed in their actual lived lives.

One of the strangest things about @DrAdrianHarrop is that he claims he isn’t a bully and is extremely professional
His tweets portray something far more sinister
The bit highlighted in yellow includes “as will the others” clearly shows that he is acting in concert with others

The woman in question has asked him to remove her personal information from his tweets - he refuses unless she ‘deletes her twitter account’
And remember this is from a doctor who denied referring to women as ‘bitches’ and has used other derogatory terms and then paid money to @womensaid as an apology
