screenshot of a post from Trump’s abomination & bile platform. The text reads "All U.S. Ships, Aircraft, and Military Personnel, with additional Ammunition, Weaponry, and anything else that is appropriate and necessary for the lethal prosecution and destruction of an already substantially degraded Enemy, will remain in place in, and around, Iran, until such time as the REAL AGREEMENT reached is fully complied with," the 79-year-old wrote on Truth Social
TEHRAN (The Borowitz Report) -In its first act of goodwill since the declaration of a ceasefire, on Wednesday Iran permitted a container ship loaded with copies of the Epstein files to pass through the Strait of Hormuz. "In recent weeks, the closure of the Strait has cut off the world's supply of Epstein files," an Iranian government statement read. "Now, those files will flow freely to the four corners of the globe." Although Iran is charging vessels millions for safe passage through the Strait, "We are sending the Epstein files through free of charge,'"the statement indicated. The Iranians said they had taken Donald J. Trump's threat to destroy their civilization "very seriously," noting, "We see what he's already done to American civilization."

1 star review 7 months ago Worst service. Delicious pizza. The service was the worst possible. I walked in with my dog because there's No Sign on the door prohibiting entry her. I ordered a slice of pizza and a Coke. I told to attendent man l'd eat at the table. The service was quiet. After I paid and opened the Coke, he said I had to leave the restaurant. Totally disrespectful and untrue. He only said I couldn't stay after I'd already paid and started drinking the Coke. I'll never go back and will only give bad reviews.

A screenshot capturing statements by a pedophile apologist and serial sexual harasser: Despite the plea, Krauss continued to defend him. “As a scientist I always judge things on empirical evidence and he always has women ages 19 to 23 around him, but I’ve never seen anything else, so as a scientist, my presumption is that whatever the problems were I would believe him over other people,” Krauss told the Daily Beast in 2011. “I don’t feel tarnished in any way by my relationship with Jeffrey, I feel raised by it,” Krauss said.
One reason for the massive deployment of law enforcement officers to Naples was that it takes a lot of manpower to secure a perimeter around an entire mountain, especially one traced with overgrown trails and old logging roads.

Assuming you're using the classic version for combination skin, Geek and Gorgeous Cheer Up toner is probably a good alternative as that's a formulation of several ingredients like Clinique instead of just focusing on salycilic acid. In the UK you can also look at the salycilic toners by Face Theory, Revolution Beauty and SR skincare. Think Superdrug has an own brand version as well. Ren and Medik8 are also worth looking at but are a higher price point.

Banqueting Stuff 113 ters with Indigenous peoples, begins with fruitfulness and "civility" but ends with dearth and mortality. The list of food opportunities is replaced by a final page with daily records of deaths. The interlopers consider their first extended contact with the Algonquian very promising because it consists of a meal and "entertainment" that follows an order seemingly recognizable to the Europeans, complete with status hierarchy: elites seated by rank; the serving of "dainties", 94 an after-the-meal treat (in this case, tobacco); and a final performance, which the captain rewards with a gift. Even if religion and warfare practices remain mysterious, this hospitality is a moment of promise for the prospective set-tlers. Rendered familiar, Algonquian hospitality is, for Percy, a harbinger of future amity. Their ordered meal suggests an ordered society with an attention to rank that matches the English, similarities that suggests them as potential allies. And, indeed, the first years of settlement were relatively peaceful, and food became both a source of and a means of communicating conflict.'5 For several days, the party visits a range of Indigenous communities; Percy's description of his dealings is shot through with a sense of wonder until he reaches Paspahegh territory: the encounter begins with the promise that their leader "would be merry with us with a fat Deare."9 That initial promise is followed by other promises and signs of friendship, but Percy's account alternates between paradisal appraisals of the land and mutual accusations of threat and trickery. The colonists are sent a deer in a stately fashion, but, by the time of its arrival, Percy's suspicion is evident, "[He] sent forty of his men with a Deere, to our quarter: but they came more in villainy than any love they bare vs."'7 He concludes, though, that "Pasphia was as good as his word; for hee sent Venison, but the Sawse came within few dayes after."98 Nonetheless, the encounter is wr…

Or you could save the money and have someone slap you back and forth with a large salmon.

A Real Note: What is so frustrating, though scientifically understandable, is the muting of the most militant of these voices as well as any similarly "Black Militant" or revolutionary voices by the accumulated "covers" (record industry word), co-optations & betrayals attributable to what DuBois called "The Sisyphus Syndrome", where each time we roll the huge boulder of soi disant US democracy up the towering mountain of US hypocrisy & resistance, the "Gods" roll it back down on our heads.
