108 I’ve wondered how photo realistic paintings like this work in the artist’s mind. Do they have photographic memory and they are painting by completing a mental “render” or is the creative process still a higher level transformation of canvas through complex thoughts and ideas?

The left's language around law and order is...incoherent.

Going after Trump for crimes that no one can explain? That's law and order.

Protecting illegal immigrants from any law enforcement action at all? That's law and order.

Using the federal government to pressure Big Tech to shut down speech out of favor with trannies? That's law and order.

They talk law and order a lot. They talk it up. But it comes from these base assumptions that many people simply don't share.

"I don't understand the criticism."

For people at pbs, being a leftist who adores government authority is middle of the road. They’re so entrenched in their bubble they honestly believe there is no bias.

247 A new postmortem on the 2024 election by the Democratic data firm Catalist delivers a sobering warning: The party’s biggest problem is with young voters.

Support among voters under 30 dropped from 61% in 2020 to just 55% in 2024. That’s still a majority, but the trend is moving in the wrong direction. And it’s not just white voters.

Among young voters of color, the slide was even more dramatic: Support among Black men under 30 dropped by 10 points. Among young Latino men, it cratered by 16 points.

social media is a big part of it. In Canada the social media is so supportive of liberals. It is a big difference. Social media is key.

Unfortunately, mostly due to historic oppression, black men are particularly susceptible to the manly-man appeal

I'm so sick of this shit. Black men got nothing to do with this shit. Trump is a white people's problem.

it will only get worse as blue states may lose 10 or more electoral votes as a result of the 2030 census. But even if Democrats are out of touch, Trump was known to be what he is--a liar, lying casually and without shame, a known entity, and the nation elected him, we have reaped what we have sowed.

Officer Tatum had a video recently of cops trying to disarm a 7-year-old and a 9-year-old during a standoff in New Mexico. These kids appeared to be *not* black (which surprised me), were known to the cops(!) and immediately were trying to deny blame ("I don't have the gun!" as the officers were literally disarming them).

Yeah, we might need to rethink how we charge kids under 18.

Others are cheered for saying the sun rises in the west, because who is to say what West truly is and there are bigger Truths to consider than boring old objective reality.

I agree and, more generally, the whole age thing needs a total rethink. Either you have agency at (for example) 16, or you don't. If you don't, then you shouldn't be allowed to do anything. If you do, then you can face justice as an adult for vicious crimes.

According to liberals, you have to be 21 to drink, or smoke, or rent a car, etc. But you can get an abortion or chop your dick off at 14. But a 16-year-old shouldn't be tried as an adult for a cold-blooded murder. Etc etc etc.

So, Finland joined NATO in 2023. NATO, apart from the US, is clamoring for more escalation against Russia. Russia started a military buildup near Finland in 2025.

Get it? Finland did something in 2023. Russia responded in 2025.

Oh, but Finland was just responding to the Russian aggression of 2022 which was started by the US prior to 2014 (but we'll ignore that because it conflicts with my anti-Soviet mindset).
