Good stuff!

Not that I'm in any way linked to the dead in an amorous way of course...

I need to know WHY tho.

EDIT: Why she did it, not why you give her a pass on it.

No you don't.
I promise you, any explanation you can come up with is better than the reality of why the author of FRANKENSTEIN did it in a cemetery where her mother was buried (at the age of 16 with a 21 yr old cousin who was married to another 16 yr old iirc).

...with Percy Bysshe Shelley to boot...the poet.

But then didn't their main literary works arrive from or due to a debauched and drug-infused key party one night? So we should not be surprised by graveyard sex.

Yeah, newest news say it was a missile that show down that plane in Iran. Great. Like we hadn't had THAT one yet.

[QuickTidal]

Is there...is there a reason why I can't get 'Toss a Coin to Your Witcher' out of my head? Fuck....LOL

Let's see: impeachment; election year; whoops we've started a war! Oh hey, those guys are actually the bad guys they shot down a plane!

Hmmm...

It seems like an obvious fuckup.... already throwing missiles at the US, why would Iran deliberately shoot down a Ukrainian civilian plane full of Canadians?

[Tiste Simeon]

Yeah. It's almost as if we needed ourselves to look like the good guys again to win support. It's all terribly convenient.

Got to agree. I'm with the "accidental major fuckup" theory until proven otherwise. It sucks anyway.

What does annoy me is people dragging Russia into it. I mean, yeah, it's Russia, but everyone and their grandfather's dog has Russian made missiles in that general area of the world. It's not like Russian missiles have a Ukraine-detector built in, you fucking idiots.

Yeah. Thing is, though, that there aren't that many airlines that offer flights to Iran, and even less that offer them from anywhere outside the Middle East. It was pure shit luck that it was a Ukraine International Airlines flight. Also, the plane that was downed above Ukraine in 2014 was a Malaysian one.

I'm sorry, I guess I feel the need to lay out the facts because I've spent too much time reading people's pseudo-scientific brain hemorrage on Twitter the past two days.

Also, Iran is supposedly already bulldozing the crash site. Amazing.

The news coming out about the sheer number of animals killed in the fires in Australia. Followed up by the video of koalas taking water from strangers, and the desperation you could see in how they aggressively grabbed on and drank from the bottles left me completely destroyed. Toughest thing I've watched in quite some time.

Caught a CBC news piece on that this am.

I acknowledge the human toll of this disaster is awful and 'more important', but some of the interviews with animal rescue workers describing koalas and baby kangaroos fleeing for their lives on third-degree burnt feet were just viscerally disturbing to listen to.
