Nah, this will be used against good people (just like all laws). The GOAT Eugene Debs was able to run from prison, let Trump. I doubt he will win with his whole embrace of taking away women's rights.
Science fiction is quite simply one of the most popular genres of film that we have. The creation of faraway places and futuristic technology seems to be exactly what the medium of film was designed to create. Sci-fi on film has been around for as long as there have been movies. But which ones are the best? Figuring that out is...
The price rise hit prisoners seeking bottled water as temperatures eclipse the 100 degree mark in unairconditioned facilities. The state vendor asked to raise the price and two state agencies signed off.
A lot of "useful" prisoner, like doctors and nurses, were used by the nazis to treat other prisoners in the concentration camps. These doctors were killed every six or so months and new ones replaced them. The nazis had endless waves of people that they murdered.
I fucking hate nazis. We should make them all afraid again.
Behind the Bastards covered this on their Mengele episode, which I highly recommend. Robert Evens had a more sympathetic outlook towards the jewish doctors who were useful to the nazis.
Basically, they were put in a terrible situation, and they were able to use their relative privilege to help other internees. And it isn't like they were living the life of luxury, they were all murdered on a regular basis so that they individually wouldn't become to important to the death machine. We shouldn't judge those people too harshly given the choices they were given essentially.
And, I am terrible afraid of the right wing in the US. They aren't even hiding their intent to do a genocide anymore. I live in a progressive enclave of a deeply red state. Needless to say, I'm armed and I encourage all my progressive friends to get armed.
The problem for DeSantis is that he has all the charisma of a wet paper bag. The fascists love Trump not because of his policies or whatnot, but because he is charismatic as all hell while owning the libs. DeSantis is a capable fascist, he can get bad things done, but he doesn't have the theatrics to get into power.

Democratic Sen. Chris Murphy (Conn.) on Monday warned about “the stakes” of the 2024 election, arguing Republicans will push to approve a national abortion ban if they win Congress next…
No shit? All democrats in power need to be talking about how their are going to add Justices to the supreme court. Anything they do will be struck down by this lawless court using their stupid made up "Major Questions" doctrine which makes them unelected god kings.
Holy shit this is an upsetting read. This poor couple. I wish the town they were cornerstones of would have forced these fascists from town as soon as they became a problem.

I'll have to give it a go. I bought it to support them. I put in many many hours of DF like 10 years ago. I was sending the guys money too... I wish I could find the drawings they sent me.
I've just been playing a lot of DCSS lately because it is so easy to just spin up my browser and be killing kobolds and fire giants.
I’ve also been playing since Linley’s! Got my first win way back when Sif channeling was a discrete action and it cost food. I was a mummy so fuck food and I cast summon dragon (also discrete) to fill up the whole screen. Good times.
