Last year, Lin Manuel Miranda (Hamilton creator) released a musical adaptation of The Warriors where all of the characters are gender swapped.

I was imagining that hogs will decide to fire guns haphazardly in lack of fireworks. I hadn’t considered hogs crafting homemade fireworks but that would be very funny as well.

The whole Weird Weekends series from 1999 is pretty good. Episode 3 is about pornstars, part of it is about a heterosexual man who stars in gay porn as a job, they call it “gay for pay”.

In 2007, he made a documentary about the Westboro Baptist Church. This is a church which is infamous for picketing the funerals of US soldiers and saying that claiming that god kills US soldiers because the US supports homosexuality.

Another 2007, he made a documentary about bourgies gambling in Las Vegas. There’s a guy who owns a mattress company and he goes to Vegas and feeds all of his profits into slot machines.

In 2011, he made a 2 part documentary about a “megajail” in Miami. In the US, a jail is different than a prison, in that a jail is a place where suspected criminals are held before trial and a prison is a place. It’s a massive facility of people who have been charged but not convicted. Louis interviews the inmates.

In 2015, Louis made a documentary about transgender kids. He interviews children with gender dysphoria in California who are receiving gender affirming care and also interviews some transgender adults. The movie shows transgender people positively.

In 2016, he made a documentary about severe alcoholics in the UK.

In 2022, he made a documentary about internet neo-nazis which featured Nick Fuentes and Baked Alaska.

These are a few that I have watched which were pretty good. I’m not sure about a favorite. He’s made dozens. What I like about his documentary style is he mostly asks people questions and let’s people speak for themselves.

seems like this person uploaded the whole movie on a tweet. I expect that BBC is copyright claiming people who reupload. BBC is funded by UK tax dollars and if you live in the UK, you can watch it for free on the BBC iPlayer. BBC tends to try to prevent people outside the UK from watching their content. if that tweet goes down, check filesharing sites or something if you are savvy.

I did some websurfing, saw some various news articles on firework tariffs. Some firework companies have halted shipments. Then I came across the /r/fireworks subreddit. I’m seeing a lot of posts by people who are saying that they are firework retailers and have canceled their orders from China. Some posts say that the tariff on fireworks was at 59% as of 25 days ago. People are saying that 2026 is “America’s 250th Birthday”, 250 years since 1776. Time will tell, I guess

Louis Theroux previously made a documentary about the West Bank in 2011 titled “Louis Theroux: The Ultra Zionists”.

There is a certain style to Louis Theroux documentaries. The documentaries are often about people who are very bad and Louis always presents himself as a neutral observer to the people that he interviews.

You may not learn anything new from this documentary. This documentary will however, have quite a large audience. It is being aired on the BBC public television.

In this documentary he travels around the West Bank and is harassed by multiple different IOF militants, they even point guns at Louis. The documentary shows the audience that the IOF and Israeli settlers are very bad people.

I’ve watched many Louis Theroux movies and I’ve enjoyed many of them a lot.

Funniest possible treat shortage would be fireworks. Independence Day is only 2 months away. Fireworks were originally invented in China. 82% of fireworks in the world are made in China.

Every Independence Day of Trump’s first presidency, the hogs went wild with fireworks. Imagine July 4, the first Independence Day of Trump’s second term, and a shortage of fireworks. Hogs would go nuts.

His mother’s family is Jewish, but he didn’t know that until he was already grown up. He was raised as a Catholic and made a career out of being an annoying atheist. So he’s technically half Jewish but he only uses that for political purposes.

No, the US has drivers licenses as the de facto id. It was not intended to be an ID because it was only meant to say that you can drive a car. Then the people don’t drive a car, don’t have a driver’s license. In many states, the driver’s license was very insecure and easy to make fraudulent licenses. This is why the US is trying to do the “real id” system since 2005, but the system is still not completed. Very car-brained country. Social Security Number was also not intended to be an ID, which is why it is so insecure.

There’s a map on this page which shows many countries around the world have citizen ID cards.

The US has no real national id system because politicians want for it to be hard for working people to file various paperwork. It’s made tedious on purpose. It would be better if working people can more easily have an ID card. Being forced to show that ID card on demand though, is not very good.

There’s a clip in the video where he speaks into a microphone at the bar “Alright. Welcome Everybody to Heterosexual Male Monday! Are there any heterosexuals here tonight?” The patrons cheer. There’s a gadsen flag on the wall. It’s unclear whether he collected sperm samples from the patrons.

This is the ad. Some boomer bar owner yapping. He says that it’s June and he wanted to celebrate his daughter’s birthday but he can’t because he’s afraid to go downtown because of Pride events. He then asks the question “What if we celebrated god’s design for sexuality?” on my daughter’s birthday.

Then he starts yapping about selling promotional alcohol at his bar. He says “Mondays are Beers for Breeders, males who are breeders” “Thursdays are Happy Hour for Hers” and “Wednesdays are for couples, 15% of bills of couples”.

This is like a Tim & Eric skit.

Podcaster Tim Pool was invited to Tuesday’s White House briefing and used his time in the “new media” seat to bash the media for its portrayal of Kilmar Abgrego Garcia.

Abrego Garcia — the Salvadoran man who was taken from his home in Maryland to the maximum security prison CECOT in his home country — has been at the center of a national debate since his arrest.

President Donald Trump’s administration admitted that he was deported in error, but Trump officials continue to stand by the decision with claims that Abrego Garcia is a member of the gang MS-13.

On Tuesday, Pool used the extraordinary access he was given to simply tee up White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt to attack the media.
