20-year-old, registered Republican, Thomas Matthew Crooks is the shooter, yes, but the donation to ActBlue referred to in the headline of this post was apparently made by somebody else.
Looks like it wasn't even him anyway -- the ActBlue donation was registered to a Thomas Crooks, not Thomas Matthew Crooks:
There has been no presence of international journalism on the ground in Gaza for months. This is how Israel wants it. News agencies have to either take the IDF's version of events at face value or cite reports from what remains of Gaza's government, i.e Hamas. There are no other sources except for what fragments get uploaded to social media by eyewitnesses.
Personally, I'll take anything from Al JAzeera over anything coming from Israeli intelligence.
General is for work visas, whereas Academic is for applying to university courses. Generally speaking.
You should always double check with the institution/company you're applying to, though.
Exactly. For either of the main parties, it's barely a drop in the bucket. The claim that theoney is being withheld "in case they need it" is farcical.
Third parties, on the other hand, need all the help they can get.
The case for US electoral reform, exhibit #847...
It's hard enough for third parties to offer voters an alternative to the two main parties without the duopoly actively blocking what little financial support they have.
It's literally just boredom and dissatisfaction driving people to change from one side to another. Thanks to the two-party corporatocracy that the US pretends is a democracy, what other options do they have?
I'm a fan of atmospheric horror too, so I'll give Longlegs a watch.
Recently, I've also seen:
-
Late Night With the Devil - really good retro horror flick. They got the feel of the late 70s just right, and i enjoyed the way the tension gradually builds to a crescendo.
-
A Quiet Place: Day One - was a big fan of the first movie, but the sequels have been increasingly disappointing. This one was definitely the weakest, IMO, but still somewhat enjoyable if you still feel like seeing a little more of the same.
-
Furiosa - it was never going to be quite as good as Fury Road, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. It leant a little too much towards the grotesque at times, but the central performances and the world building were still good.
-
Immaculate - Sweeney is pretty good and it has some atmosphere but by the end it got a little too silly for me. A fairly passable religious genre horror, all round.
-
Dune: Part Two - as a big fan of the books, I have to say it was a little disappointing. Villeneuve nailed the look and feel of Arrakis no doubt, but this part felt rushed and unsatisfying - It really needed another 30 or 40 minutes to allow some of the central plot points to land and to give the characters more room to develop. I enjoyed it, but it's not the masterpiece it could have been.
Follow up question: how do you deal with the King of Dwarves fight with this build?
Ah, ok - I assumed that you linked an outdated source but yes, it does appear that they are the same.
For the record, here's confirmation of the donation address:
