When George R.R. Martin passes away do you think they will hire Patrick Rothfuss to not finish his books for him?

The earliest vampire stories. These are available on if anyone is interested. I had not heard of two of them before today. Polidori had spent time with the Shelley's and Byron one summer and to amuse themselves they all agreed to write horror stories. Mary and Polidori (who was Byron's physician) were the only ones who completed their works, although The Vampyre is at least partly based on Byron's idea but was written by Polidori. I had only heard of Frankenstein coming out of that summer's visitation. You would think the origin stories of two of the greatest monsters in fiction being so closely linked would be mentioned more often in English classes.
@DaddyWarpig The first recognized vampire prose story was Polidori's "The Vampyre" in 1819, Then came a Penny Dreadful serialized story "Varney,The Vampire" 1845-47,then La Fanu's "Camilla" 1871 ,then Stoker's "Dracula" in 1897.

Why when their parents and grandparents abandoned those places in hopes the Arabs would eradicate the Jews? There has never, in the history of the world, been a people with less legitimate cause for grievance than the "Palestinians" and it is hilarious watching you make up excuses for not taking the bloodthirsty little savages in because you know full well they have tried to overthrow every government which allowed them in as refugees. Even Jordan and Egypt wall them off. Now is your chance to show the world just how wrong they are and take them in. Go ahead... have a go at it.

@john_mcguirk Trump is not playing. You will have container ships full of "refugees" come sign up for welfare benefits if Ireland keeps showing its ass over this issue.

RT @SandyofCthulhu: A sad fact Tolkien included that not everyone picked up on. (I know I didn't at first.) After Mount Doom erupts, Gandal…

My mother had to pick blueberries during the Great Depression and in return for a summer's worth of work received a pair of shoes. Another relative from the same generation picked cotton, and they were both white. My father was pulled out of school to work the farm until he ran off and joined the army for WWII. Both our families made a better life for the next generation. That is America. But I bet that was not the point he was making.
Anthony Mackie: "My father was taken out of school to pick cotton." Your father owned a roofing company. Your brother is an associate professor of engineering at Tulane You went to Juilliard. Sit down with the rewrite of your family history.

@LaNativePatriot The idiots do it 2 weeks after he took office like it would even be possible for him to have had an effect. He won't even get a budget passed for months yet.

@robkroese There is no situation so obvious that a libertarian cannot miss the point. And I am a libertarian so I should know.

@brad_polumbo So, in other words, like every woke politician or celebrity on the left. Yeah, the double standard is over. Get used to it. The right wanted one standard where that stuff was beyond the pale. Alas, they lost on that issue and were forced to embrace the left's standard.

@SpanbergerForVA If there is not a line of cars streaming out of DC of the newly fired I will be EXTREMELY disappointed. The only way the country can be saved is to drain that city which is a parasite on an otherwise great country.

There is always the big ask at the start of a negotiation so that the window of what is acceptable moves. His speech is always transactional in nature. That the left freaks out only makes it easier for him to sell how serious he is about the hardline position. He uses them and their hysteria to his advantage.

@BehizyTweets Doge is going to have to move to the judiciary next. Let them sit in unairconditioned offices with no clerks and only a copy of the Constitution for company.

@Tickl_on_sol @WallStreetApes @PolitickleAi Thank you for the daily reminder that the left can't meme. It reminds us to remember the less fortunate in the intellectual lottery.
