MeWe's conservative nature
You can tell MeWe caters to conservative conspiracy-theorists who have stayed in their own little cliques out of fear of others - every time a man messages you expressing interest, he sends you a picture of himself wearing his wife's lingerie thinking that must be a turn-on to you. All they know of gay men is what the television and Hollywood films have pushed at them, which is the worst of the stereotypes and jokes about "the fa**ots".

Parasitic reproduction
Do you need children?
If we are guided by the idea that “a child is a continuation of the tradition of parents, reflecting their experience, knowledge and wisdom,” it makes sense. If you have your own tradition, worldview, culture, then the birth of a successor to this tradition is relevant.
Let's take a look at a little trick of this idea. The child is born. “Society” begins to interfere with the life of the family with its “instructions and attitudes”. To dictate to parents: how to raise a child, keep an eye on him, how to take care of him. Everything is regulated, even instructions are given on the question “how many times and with what feces the child needs to go to the toilet”. Pediatricians, kindergarten teachers, all try to push the ideas of "society" into the personality of the child, pushing the programs of the parents. Two people gave birth to a third, spent their health, nerves, money, time on it, so that later their “product of joint activity” would be used by representatives of the “society”. What for? The answer "it should be so" is the answer of "society", which is trying to raise another slave for itself, using other people's resources.
Everything is obligatory in a child's life, according to the standards of "society". Parents are obliged to send the child to a "public school" where a "public program" is hammered into his head. The function of parents (in the opinion of "society") is reduced to work, ensuring the maturation of the child, which other people are engaged in. They do it to prevent their parents from raising a successor to their tradition. And if the parents refuse to bring up the child under the dictation of "social parasites", the latter will take him away. By manipulating the rules they created themselves, in the style of "a child should receive a full-fledged education, it is for his good." Only "society" forgets about the main thing - education, its format and program should be determined by parents, and not outside people who have nothing to do with their child. And the parents are "out of work."
All their life, some people are taught the need to give birth and raise other people, for someone else. Is it worth spending half your life to cultivate someone else's adept for a parasitic "society"?

Tucker & Dale Vs. Evil
Film-geek trivia: If you put closed-captions on near the beginning of TUCKER AND DALE VS. EVIL, in the scene where the general-store manager is reading-off the list of items Dale is purchasing for their vacation-home... After the "three-inch nails", one of the items mentioned is "lubricated condoms". Tucker is constantly noticing women, but Dale is repeatedly reinforcing to him what a "good-looking" / "handsome" and "good-hearted" / "sweet" guy he is. This changes the whole dynamic of the film & makes you see why this trip is so important to Dale.

A fake prop gun that DOESN'T fire could easily be used & CGI-graphics in post-production could make it LOOK real. People are dying STILL & Hollywood is too busy stroking it's own ego to change anything.

An Outsider's Perspective Of Gothic Literature

Looking at the presidential aspirants in Panay -
FOUR coffee addicts, as they call themselves, gathered in a new coffee bar enthusiastic to chit-chat on the “qualities” of ambitious would-be national leaders of this country.
First is the lady candidate Leni who is now the second highest official of the land.
“Leni is a kind lady and very soft-spoken and seems close to the heart of Filipinos. She could be a good La Presidente,” said a teacher.
“She is all smiles all the time and speaks well,” he added.
“What can a smile and timid lady do if she becomes the national leader? There are very tough situations to resolve. It is not enough to be soft and kind,” the golfer butted in.
“There are so many corrupt agencies in government and we do not think she will be brave enough to hustle with those old faggots in government,” he added then sipped his cappuccino.

Did anyone seriously think that the corporate, conservative neoliberal modern Democratic Party would honestly go after billionaires cheating on their taxes?

The Batt;e For The Senate
THE BATTLE FOR THE SENATE
By Lisa Desjardins, @LisaDNews
Correspondent
This is only the fourth time in U.S. history that the Senate has been precisely split between parties. (The first was 1881, when Vice President Chester Arthur repeatedly served as tiebreaker.)
Notably, it has never stayed tied for more than two years at a time. Which brings us to 2022 and the fight by each party to push the current 50-50 Senate in their respective directions.
The basic numbers:
Current makeup of the Senate:
50 in the Democratic caucus (48 D, 2 I)
50 Republicans
Senate races next year: 34 total
By party: 14 D, 20 R
Nerd note: this is “Class III,” the third of the three “classes” or groups of Senate seats. A different class is up for election every two years.
Open seats: 3, so far. All are Republican.
These are open because of the retirements of Sens. Richard Burr, R-N.C., Rob Portman, R-Ohio, and Pat Toomey, R-Pa. These retirements -- each in a potential swing state -- are one reason that many Senate watchers give the edge in the Senate contest to Democrats.
Who’s vulnerable? Let’s use the breakdown from our friends at the Cook Political Report.
Competitive races: 9. These are races considered “toss-up” or “lean”-ing one way or the other. These nine contests likely will decide control of the U.S. Senate.
Current toss-up races: 3. All are Republican. Those are the open seats in North Carolina and Pennsylvania as well as Republican Sen. Ron Johnson’s seat in Wisconsin.
Seats “leaning”: 2 Republican and 4 Democrats.
Let’s talk about the toss-ups first.
North Carolina. This is a big money race, both in the primary and the general. Former congressman Mark Walker and former governor Pat McCrory are in the packed GOP field but current Rep. Ted Budd has snagged the endorsement of former President Donald Trump. Democrats have some stars in their orbit as well: former State Supreme Court justice Cheri Beasley is in and former Rep. Heath Schuler is considering it, though time to decide may be running out.
Pennsylvania. The state that voted Obama then Trump then Biden is a must-watch in nearly every modern election. And next year it is also the greatest pick-up hope of Democrats. As you’d expect, both parties have crowded fields. But keep an eye on the Republican race especially, with former Trump officials and current Fox News commentators in the ring. Democrats are hoping for a well-known candidate on their end and a far-right candidate for Republicans. For both parties, this could be a replay of some 2020 dynamics.
Wisconsin. Republican Sen. Ron Johnson has yet to announce if he will run for reelection. Should Johnson decide he wants to keep his job, the Cook Political Report says it’s a toss-up for voters. The conservative firebrand and former chairman of the Homeland Security Committee has won points with Trump by making a name for himself in the Senate as one of his key supporters. But Johnson also has one of the lowest approval ratings of any Republican incumbent,and has raised ire by repeatedly downplaying the events of Jan. 6. Democrats have a spectrum of candidates, from a radiologist who has never run for office to the state’s current treasurer and a professional basketball executive.
Which Democrats are the most vulnerable?
Arizona. Democrat and former astronaut Mark Kelly just won his seat last year in a special election. The party’s hope to defend it lies with Kelly’s steady, no-news-here approach and the growth in new voters in his state. Republican Gov. Doug Ducey may enter the race, though he and Trump have been at odds. The question is who, if anyone, could tap into continued Republican anger over the state results in 2020 and not ostracize too many swing independents.
Georgia. The Senate’s most junior member, Democrat Raphael Warnock, faces an intense contest. Republicans have interest from multiple U.S. congressmen and state officials, but headlines surround NFL great and Trump supporter Herschel Walker, who seemed to indicate he’s joining the race.
New Hampshire.There is one question above all others for Sen. Maggie Hassan and Democrats: Will the state’s current governor run against her? Republican Gov. Chris Sununu has said he is open to the idea but is taking his time deciding.
Nevada. Catherine Cortez-Masto is a freshman Democratic senator running in a state where the margins are still thin; President Joe Biden won last year by just 30,000 votes. But the Republican field so far is small.
Which other Republicans are the most vulnerable?
Florida. Ten years ago, Marco Rubio was a Tea Party darling. Six years ago, he was a White House contender openly in conflict with Trump. Now he is brandishing Trump’s endorsement. But he faces a high-profile Democrat showdown with Rep. Val Demings, a former police chief who is running on progressive messages on race and gender.
Ohio. The Buckeye State is among the few purple-ish states which decidedly increased support for Trump from 2016 to 2020. This is one reason the Republican contest is heavy with candidates in the race to replace retiring Rob Portman. A former state treasurer, a current congressman and “Hillbilly Elegy” author J.D. Vance are all in the mix. For Democrats, Rep. Tim Ryan is out in front so far, eyeing a potential opening if the GOP picks a candidate too far to the right for the state.
The Senate battle overall
The math here favors Democrats. They simply have fewer vulnerable Senators at the moment and more solid challengers to Republicans. But midterm elections can swing quickly and widely, and Democrats do not have room for error. A shift in public sentiment could easily make their challenging-but-doable quest to keep the Senate more steeply uphill.
