i don’t understand why this isn’t called F9: The Return of Han
the fast series feels like the closest an american movie franchise has ever come to capturing the vibe of an anime series
large cast of characters, byzantine plots, high melodrama, outrageous action, etc.
yes! i think it actually scratches the same exact itch as DBZ

just saw a gif of the scene from MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE — FALLOUT where henry cavill cocks his arms like they’re guns and i now feel compelled to watch that movie for what would be the fifth or sixth time
this legitimately might be one of my favorite movies of the last decade. it is just pure adrenaline for two hours.

crank, my sincere advice is you should lay out the thrust of your argument within your 1st 200 words & that throat-clearing for the length of a column before getting to your point — which even then is unclear — is a recipe for being misunderstood as often as you seem to be.
if an accurate reading of your lede depends on connecting the clause “for the purpose of” to a sentence roughly 500 words down the page, then there is a structural problem in the writing
If I were your editor Crank, I would have suggested you write something like: “Democrats believe the Georgia law is a gambit to help the GOP win elections by undermining fair elections, but it is their coordination of an unaccountable corporate response that is anti-democratic.”

what’s fun about “the 3/5ths compromise was actually antislavery” is that it is an easy way to see if the person actually knows anything about the founding period
i actually wrote a little about three-fifths clause last year. the short story is that the pro-slavery/anti-slavery debate ignores the context of the convention nytimes.com/2020/08/07/opi…
the argument over whether the three-fifths compromise was antislavery misses the extent to which enslaved people were going to be “represented” one way or the other and the debate over the extent of that representation wasn’t really about the morality of slavery.

meanwhile West Virginia has an estimated $265 million gap in capital expenditures for schools infrastructurereportcard.org/state-item/wes…
also home health care is one of the fastest growing industries in the state herald-dispatch.com/news/home-heal…
anyway i want republicans to continue opposing this infrastructure package with stuff like “Biden wants to spend hundreds of billions on your elderly parents” and “Biden wants to spend tens of billions on rehabbing your neighborhood schools”
