Let's talk about Griner, Whelan, and Bout....
There was a time when an American being freed from hostile foreign soil would have been cause for celebration. But folks on the Right have cultivated an absolutely backwards brand of patriotism that has led to Brittney Griner, someone who gave this country Olympic gold medals, being downright vilified. And time and again, I see the same insipid talking points trotted out to justify hating her, Joe Biden, or both. So I thought it'd be good to break this down, point by point:
"Biden could have traded for Paul Whelan instead of Griner!"
No, he couldn’t. Whelan wasn’t on the table. Russia has painted him as a spy, and they’re holding on to him. It was Brittney Griner or nobody. Whelan himself called her release “wonderful news”, and his family put out a statement, as follows: "There is no greater success than for a wrongful detainee to be freed & for them to go home. The Biden Admin made the right decision to bring Ms. Griner home, & to make the deal that was possible, rather than waiting for one that wasn't going to happen.” And for what it’s worth, Trump didn’t do jack to bring him back while he was president, so let’s dismiss the pathetic bloviating from 45 regarding his deal-making acumen.
"She deserved it for handling drugs!"
No, she didn’t. Even if the few drops of hash oil weren’t medicinal, as her defense claimed, nine years in a penal colony for a vape cartridge should be outrageous by anyone’s standards. And let’s not forget, Russia has made exceptions to their strict drug policies for athletes before. Hell, remember that doping scandal from some years back? In an attempt to win prestige the Russian government concocted a whole program for helping their athletes to evade doping regulations. They were technically banned from the Olympics and global sports for years. But, oh, yeah, this basketball player had less than one gram of hash oil. Nine years in the gulag! She had it coming!!
"Viktor Bout is a danger to the world!"
No, he isn’t. He was Mr. “Lord of War” fifteen years ago. Not anymore. He’s been out of the game for over a decade. The market has changed, the players have changed, technology has changed, the world has changed. He’s not the “Merchant of Death” emerging from a cursed tomb, he’s not going to be handing Cobra Commander any laser guns, and letting Putin crow for a few weeks about getting a buddy out of prison is a small price to pay for reuniting a woman with her family.
"She hates America because she wouldn’t stand for the national anthem!"
Give me a break.
If this was TLDR, I'll just point to Beau of the Fifth Column.

I just saw a segment that was like two dudes talking about if "The Joker could maintain dominence" and like the wild time that was my brain before I remembered sports exist.

NINNAAAA WHATS SPCD STAND FOR??
oh, it's not that exciting, it's actualy awful. i mentioned it towards the tail end of chapter five of rm. it's basically what cartman used to call kyle when they were growing up. a really cruel fucked up nickname.
the s.p.c.d,
or rather,
the south park city dump. :(
the sp boys used to be fucking horrible to kyle because cartman ruled their elementary/middle school. and when cartman and the boys saw kyle in the hallway they were like "what are you doing here, broflovski? trash day's tomorrow" or omg whenever he walked ANYWHERE they made the "Beep! Beep! Beep!" trash truck noises, but worst of all was that they used to dump out...Full Trashcans On Him. like spoiled milk, rotted food stuffs, glass bottles that werent put in recycling, crushed aluminum cans that cut his cheeks, all kinds of awful, foul smelling sludge...sigh. :/ ily so much baby jersey.
also, if you want to cry extra hard, i think that being covered in all that disgusting lunchroom trash, feeling it soak thru his shirt, stink down to the skin, pool around his shoes, get buried in his hair -- just feeling that dirty and disgusting and Unclean was one of the factors that made his ocd so severe and it's a large part as to why he takes scorching showers and rubs his skin raw bc especially if he smells something weird or its trash day, he gets triggered & has to SCRUB.
but anygays! you bet your ass that tiny lil stan was giving them ALL the business rippin around on his bike brandishing his hockey stick like a big sword, running them out of town and back to their mommas crying and screaming bloody murder all in that giant wayne gretsky *ravenstan vc* yersey...they were SCARED, lolllll!!!
which is a very interesting juxtaposition to sweet, gentle stan very lovingly picking all the food debris out of his kyles beautiful curly whirly hair before marching him over to the bathroom where while kyle showers, stan always sits on the toliet bc their running joke is that kyle might drown ( yes yersey also can't swim ) while stan listens to rock n colors his nails in w/ sharpie or stolen nail polish from shell.
and he's just like "dude, Fuck them, kyle! those fkn gilipollas are just mad because theyre all total perros and you're the most handsome guy in school, hands down." wHICH? AAA??? tbf stan does say shit like that all the time & Means It bc ravenstan has loved jers from the moment he Heard him but kyle thinks he's fuckin w/ him
bc haha!
very fun joke, stan! hit on the weird, overweight, clunky, awkward, nerdy loser boy to make him feel better about himself! great joke, bro!
bUT ITS NOT A JOKE, BESTIE!!!!
HE WANTS TO KISS YOU SO BAD!!!!!!!!
not them both bein secretly and painfully in love with each other but convinced that acting on their feelings would ruin their friendship/be unrequited and both of them being like "he is perfect, what would he want with a fuckin Loser like me?" :/ </3 WERE IN HELL!!!
regardless of thinking it was a joke, it totally made kyle blush, my rosecea king and stan was sooo nervous like oh my god, you are SO stupid, stanley marsh!!!!! guapo??? gUAPO BITCH??!!!! ARE U ACTUALLY INSANE!!! WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU??!!!
i love nervous ass tiny stan with his massive universe sized crush on kyle broflovski that he carries around in his black jansport backpack at all times...along with the weight of the world, ofc. we know this.
but anyways..off topic.
closing thoughts?
fuck you fartman.
-uncle nina, tiny but big baby jersey kyle defense club
( don't touch my sweet son!!! MY BABY!!!!! )
p.s. i'm sorry i just started making new sections without warning. i wanted a way to post about what the boys looked or acted like during different periods of their lives -- so like, satana ( which is what stans mom called him ) refers to the period of time before the fire and kyle's 'the s.p.c.d.' section also refers to that period of time.
it's cool you guys are so perceptive tho! i hope you like them <333 you're always welcome to ask me questions about them xx
#the spcd nickname always makes me want to cry#i love you baby jersey kyle he is my angel#the world was so cruel to him#just for being fat too like#everyone who has ever hurt jersey can go hell right after they meet with me and i beat the living shit out of them...til they Die#stan was mad over protective too and stan was weird but he had Clout from being pretty so he was like IF I SEE THAT SHIT AGAIN ITS OVER#and then goes to lovingly tend to kyle like dude im so sorry you dont deserve this shit look im gonna tell their moms#and theyre gonna get so busted and have to pay you back for al your clothes...then we pretend to hit the gap and go to good will instead#and use the rest to buy tokens at the arcade or buy the new mario game and see who can finish a pizza faster its me btw#theyre in love ur honor like why didnt i give them a chance like they were...so married#ALSO AN ANON ASKED ME ABOUT BALLET KY#YES JERSEY TOOK BALLET it wasn't his idea it was an accident bc they were marking electives#and ballet was RIGHT next to basketball and then basketbal got full and sheila was like I ALREADY BOUGHT YOU SHOES UR GOING#and like at first it was really awkward but i think kyle actually really liked the structure of ballet and when u dance beautifully#what he found is that no one had anything to say about his weight just that his pirouette was perfect it was freeing#he dropped it during the kyley b era#but picked it up again in college and its kind of a form of self harm and he fucks up his feet very badly trying to be perfect#also hes like fuck all those people who laughed at me im perfect now im fucking perfect i have to show them i have to be the best#sigh...kyle kyle kyle...ill elaborate on that more in one of the ballet kyle asks but kyle loves ballet and going to preformances#ice skating and dainty refined stuff which is cute bc theyre very nosm like jers on ice skates and stan w the hockey stick during winter

doing a 9-11 rewatch (but skipping s1 because, tbh i adore maddie and eddie too much to watch it without them there), but can we all just agree that for buck, it was love at first sight with christopher?
i mean, say what you will about buck and eddie’s relationship (jk, do not say whatever you want about those nerds to my face), but that pure adoration buck looks upon chris with? insta love if i ever saw it
#sunshines of my life honestly#the earthquake storyline is one of my fave calls#of the entire show#(not fave scene bc we all know the personal and emotional ones are at the top there)#(i got out of the ocean for you)#(i'm afraid that i'll never feel normal again)#etc etc#but the earthquake is SO DAMN GOOD#ofc the tsunami is also top tier but they truly went all out with the quake#i cry EVERY SINGLE TIME i watch that football player chant his mantra as they try to lift the pillar off his leg#i mean full on crying like a baby#(or maybe it's basketbal lol i don't know sports)#buddie#buck#christopher diaz#9-1-1
