Small dogs. Video Games. Films. Video editor, photographer, camera op, and musician. Chewie says hi! You probably followed me for the wrong reasons. Don't be surprised when I end up angrily swearing at someone on here for being a fucking idiot.

As an aside the only reference I had for the term was the name of the main character in Trapdoor.

Plus, wouldn't Berkshire be pronounced Bark-shire?

Wow, that's harder criticism that most of the mainstream press.

Wasn't it always meant as "I have my gun if the gov comes for me"? Rather than they would step up in a widespread fashion. I don't think it ever came across as them wanting to be altruistic. Not defending them, they just always seemed selfish.

Trans women were the most targeted among us before and they will be even more so after todayโ€”especially in the US, but this targeting could travel everywhere. If you know trans women in your local community, I would suggest asking if they feel unsafe and how you can help. Protect our sisters.

That came into effect with the widespread use of the internet. Instead of enabling us to be more ourselves, it encouraged those with insecurities to close off and burn bridges.

This could be interpreted as encouraging self harm.

It has the greatest cross-fade in the history of cinema. From a mountain range to a naked Monica Belluci.

The pessimism is understandable. Things WILL get worse before they get better, unfortunately. But if this comes down to an actual conflict they WILL lose.

And creatives tend to get burnt out with *gestures at everything going on in the world* generally anyway.

There far more reasonable people than there are bigots. They will learn the hard way if they keep it up.

They're so dumb they can't realise that these places got normalised and no longer required the "fun" exteriors to attract kids attention. We are the kids that keep going back, they've just updated it for us as older consumers, with our own kids being used to these places as they are.

I'm also pinning on his sunken eyes, slurring and lowered mobility on the left side of his face. I think he's had a mini stroke at least.
