Between the time of Jason and the Argonauts and the rise of the Lord of the Rings, there was an age undreamed of. And unto this, Conan, destined to wear the jeweled crown of history's dumbest protagonist upon a troubled brow. It is I, his chronicler, who alone can tell thee of his saga. Let me tell you of the days of high cinema!
1/🧵
First, a little backstory that you all should read - seriously, this thread is going to take a while for me to finish, and you'll want this context as we go along.
tl:dr - this movie isn't half as insane as it could have been
Could actually red pill some dudes
Lessons from Barbie:
1. Women can have an absolutely perfect life and still find something to complain about
2. Women in charge of everything will absolutely and completely marginalize men
3. There's really no patriarchy today

Which generation produced the greatest Batman?
The character has been portrayed a number of times in live-action media over the last ~60 years, with actors ranging from the Silent Generation to Millennials
Let's see how they stack up
🧵
I will not be including animated portrayals
The point is to evaluate the entirety of the performance by one man, and if physicality is a metric, giving someone like Kevin Conroy a spot on this list says more about the animator in that regard
(consider this an honorable mention)

It's going to get worse
And if it gets better
It's going to take a while
But if we survive the next 20 years
The unintended consequences of what is happening today
Could actually be extremely favorable
Global elites play the long game
And they don't care if America (or any other nation)
Collapses along the way
Their wealth is not limited by petty international borders
They manufacture goods where the labor is cheapest and sell them where the consumers are most gullible

Well-regulated actually means I should have the right as a civilian to own an A-10 Warthog, Jeffrey, but you're not intellectually prepared for that conversation
Me imagining a civilian militia comprised of a crowdfunded carrier group and full armored division, and how low my taxes would be from a government terrified of pissing it off...

Mentioned in a conversation with @hmestedpadre some time ago that I was looking for a new church, and was weary of the progressive, feminized congregations that plague most of Christendom.
No idea how he did it, but he suggested a church less than ten minutes from where I live
Haven't been moved to try many new churches since we moved into our new home - the scamdemic has so many of them acting stupid, I honestly found the prospect discouraging.
I am not about to enter the house of the Lord with a mask on my face, and I don't want to argue about it

I didn't expect this one to blow up. Guess I should have known better. There's more to the story...
