Israel's Ongoing Attacks On Gaza Have Killed Over 34,000 Palestinians, With Millions Trapped In Rafah

This doesn't automatically mean that it's MAGA republicans ruining people's mail in hopes of ruining Kamala ballots, but considering that it's MAGAts who's been saying that they're going to be doing this I think it's pretty much safe to say that it's them. (Source. Source.)

The website where you request your ballots from should update saying that they got your ballot. Otherwise you can call them. If all else fails you can just go there and ask. If they didn't then you can vote. If you did then you're good. (And I highly, highly suggest that you do these things!)

(Taken from Facebook, my feed regenerated and I forget where exactly it is from, so I apologize for not giving the right person due credit. However, I think it is important enough to be spread around even if it is not properly attributed.) Trump’s West Point speech was packed with the kind of lunacy our mainstream media has tried to normalize for a decade but it sure doesn’t seem normal to me. In front of a crowd of cadets who had signed up to serve while Biden was president, Trump declared, “Just about a year ago, it was a big story, front page of every paper all over the world, that nobody wanted to enlist in our military,” completely ignoring the fact that just about every graduate in the room had done exactly that. He veered off into unrelated boasts, at one point claiming, “I rebuilt the military. We rebuilt it like nobody has ever rebuilt it before in my first term,” and even managed to squeeze in, “It gives us the right to do what we want to do,” making the event sound more like a campaign rally than a graduation.

The speech only got stranger as Trump wandered onto subjects like yachts, trophy wives, and even took time to attack celebrities, calling George Clooney a “fake movie actor.” He also boasted, “Sorry losers and haters, but my I.Q. is one of the highest – and you all know it! Please don’t feel so stupid or insecure, it’s not your fault.” His tendency to make everything about himself was on full display, and he only shook hands with a few select cadets, leaving most graduates unacknowledged.

In sharp contrast, Biden’s West Point address was uplifting, inclusive, and centered on the graduates and their future service. He told the cadets, “You’re about to become full-time members of the most honorable and the most consequential fighting force in the history of the world, that’s not hyperbole, of the world. That’s the truth.” Biden highlighted their diverse backgrounds and achievements, saying, “You make our entire nation proud, and that’s not hyperbole. You do.” He reminded them to “hold fast to your values you learned here at West Point: duty, honor, country,” and emphasized, “We’re the only country in the world founded on an idea, not figuratively, literally. And the idea is we’re all created equal, deserve to be treated equally throughout our lives”.

Most tellingly, Biden stood for over an hour, shaking the hand of every single graduate, making a point to honor each cadet personally. His speech was a celebration of service, unity, and American ideals, leaving the class inspired and seen, a far cry from Trump’s self-congratulatory, grievance-filled performance. What an embarrassment that man is to our country.

There are now over 15 million empty homes in the US, and 650,000 homeless per the very bias official numbers, or 23 houses per person

Kevin Greeson (pictured here relaxing at home) stormed the Capitol, armed with a taser. During the violent uprising, he accidentally tasered his testicles, suffered a heart attack & died.

Please don’t make fun of him because that would be nuts.

So what are your favorite shadow media (pulps, comics, radio, etc)?

My favorites aren't really a mystery. It's generally listed in my bio / intro post / whatever tf shows up first and that ✨️ recommendations post ✨️

The og pulp magazine run is my main Shadow medium. It's where The Shadow's actual character was created and it's the reason I prefer the pulp. He is literally described as creature, a force of nature. The father of horror and heroes. Just a living black mass, descibed as a living dark tornado. It makes hell noises, it chirps with differing vibrations that pops nerves. A human head with eyes in some descriptions actually creates illumination.

Another big reason is its writing format. This shit actually has me reading. I hate reading. Still very much do that has not changed. This is the one exception because its format is more suited to my needs. Shorter stories + perfect length chapters while having just the right amount of content to not have your brain completely swamped.

The Shadow 1994 was my introduction so there will forever be a bias regardless of quality. Why i love this movie could be it's own post entirely so I'm gonna keep it simple

look at this thing.

Like seriously what is that why is it funny.

I love it more after reading pulps because of the written whiplash you get. Like its the most teenage fanfic shit ever and it's incredible. Very imperfect, does a lot of things wrong, a little cringe but still a fun movie that's ahead of its time. The comic adaptation is also really good (and actually better lmao.)

To be old man yelling at cloud I've not looked too much into comics, at least after 1994. Ignorance / Just too focused on the two things above. In The Coils of Leviathan is my favorite I guess "modern" comic. To quote from my recommends it's the closest thing to newer pulp story down to The Shadow character and story structuring (Shads not being a central figure, him being generally silent until the end where he explains his findings, supernatural fronts etc.) Absolutely incredible artwork, moments that will leave you in awe, a sinister monster, and The Shadow being a mythical badass.

Death of Margo Lane is my favorite modern modern comic that I've read so far. The best portrayal of him going mental that isn't stupid. Matt Wagners art is also really good. Probably my favorite current Shadow artist.
