This is sheer rampant fiction, but why not dig a lost thriving Nephilim island, their evolution and habits as strange as their spawn...

Nolan really expected us to believe that 1200 BC giants were wandering around in 800-pound suits of medieval European armour, hiding behind trees for centuries just to ambush anyone foolish enough to approach their bait. And somehow, we're supposed to call that peak cinema. 💀 The odyssey (2026)

~ 30 Bangers for #Noirvember ~ Day 7: “Scab” 🎨 Maynard Dixon, 1934 A labor-conflict painting that seems to reach further than its ostensible subject matter, “Scab” anticipates both the noir visual style and the brutality of the century to come.

Stephen Miller says that the Trump administration is 'actively looking at' suspending habeas corpus, the constitutional right to challenge unlawful detention
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
This is a May 2025 clip. Stephen Miller said the Trump administration was actively looking at suspending habeas corpus. Reports indicate the proposal was seriously debated but White House lawyers advised it requires Congressional action. No suspension has occurred. reason.com/2026/06/17/the… washingtonexaminer.com/news/justice/3… dailycaller.com/2025/05/09/ste…

I’m sorry, but everyone focusing on ousting Schumer, including AIPAC Cory Booker, suggests to me that Schumer is being held out as a sacrifice to make it look like progress is being made when, in fact, he was on his way out anyway. I’m highly suspicious of those who are all in on ousting Schumer but silent on Jeffries.

Remember Schumer and Jeffries caved during the government shutdown letting your affordable Obamacare expire...
