Ah so he’s parlaying from dusk till dawn with black people to the x files with an Indian and black lady. Neat.

fricking Christ, this is a fricking podcast while a basketball game is going on. Talk about the fricking game.

This war is not about nukes. It’s about regime change in order to take out the country that causes the most instability and violence in the Middle East.

But if the did have nukes, we wouldn’t be able to slap them around like this

yes, but it's also about re-balancing the power structure. What folks don't understand is who was benefiting the most from the instability in the region and that was the City of London. They also don't understand the history between the partnership of Iran and the city of London. Here's a breakdown:

Overview of the City of London and Iranian Oilfields in the 1900s
The early 1900s marked a significant period for both the City of London and the oilfields of Iran, particularly with the establishment of the Anglo-Persian Oil Company (APOC).

The City of London

The City of London was a major financial hub, facilitating investments in various industries, including oil.
British investors, including William Knox D'Arcy, sought opportunities abroad, particularly in resource-rich regions like Persia (now Iran).

The D'Arcy Oil Concession

In 1901, D'Arcy secured a concession from Mozaffar al-Din Shah Qajar, granting him exclusive rights to explore for oil in southern Persia for 60 years.
The agreement included a payment of £20,000 and 16% of future profits to the Persian government.

Discovery of Oil

After years of unsuccessful exploration, D'Arcy's team, led by geologist George Bernard Reynolds, struck oil on May 26, 1908, at Masjid Suleiman.
This discovery was pivotal, as it marked the first significant oil extraction in the Middle East, leading to the establishment of the APOC in 1909.

Impact on Iran and Britain

The discovery transformed Iran's economy and made it a key player in the global oil market.

The British government acquired a controlling interest in APOC in 1914, further intertwining British interests with Iranian oil resources.

This period laid the groundwork for future geopolitical dynamics in the region, as oil became a crucial resource for industrial and military power.

I heard there was a curse put on you near the end of the film. Is that true?

what a goy cuck.

No one cares about this tourney but like 5 teams.

Anyone ever cruised with Viking? This will be our first year doing so. We like Royal Caribbean but wanted to try out a new experience. No casino on board, but with Western Med. we will be stopping at Monte Carlo so gambling there will be fun. Anyway, yeah, anything we should know?

Save Act and Clarity Act are far more important to pass than Paxton becoming a senator.

five eyes can go frick itself. coming to the defense of the king, eh kiwi?

They mentioned that in the conversation with Sidney and Gail. "It would make for a better story, but it wouldn't make sense"

Also, the killer's motivation made a lot more sense the second time around. Really it was a big frick you to Scream 5 which saw Neve as just an aging side character not the real final girl. And Anna Camp's character going off the rails when Sidney wasn't in New York was obviously a big frick you to thinking Neve wasn't necessary to the story at all.

Brilliant writing that will age very well. But yeah, it was a huge frick you to the Melissa Barrera and Jenna Ortega fanboys that sought to derail, destroy, and boycott this franchise.

They tried to hijack it with 6 and then destroy it when they got pushed out. That was the meta message from the killer reveal. And the AI aspect was brilliant. It was a way to get Stu back as the fanbase wanted without completely retconning the story and ruining the franchise. Way to walk the tightrope Kevin Williamson and team. Can't wait to see what they do in Scream 8.
