lol. Someone ask them why Klobuchar was more popular

and Patton regretted it every day. Ike was the one really pushing for helping and working with the USSR.

Damn they got banned for a bit back in 2023 for

frequently calling on its supporters to insurrectional movements, which has led to serious consequences, including loss of life, many wounded, as well as acts of looting of public and private property.

And still won the presidency first round

He is not the Japanese president of Peru either, he is a Japanese-Peruvian president of Peru

Guy Henry was already perfect for the role, all of this was pointless, but Disney NEEDED to test the ethnically dubious waters so they could go hogwild with this stuff now. And I say disney specifically because all of their film studios are using this tech now. RO was the test case.

You know what George did for EPIII? He put a guy in makeup to look like Cushing and had him out of focus. Lucas had a better case for using Cushing's likeness on account of actually knowing him and iirc Cushing saying that he wished he had pushed for Tarkin to live cause he wanted to come back to star wars as soon as a sequel was announced. Yet Lucas has come out against digital actors, much as he loves new technology more than story or writing, he knows there are godamn lines

"A computer can duplicate Tom Hanks, for example, and we already use that technology a little for stunts and difficult scenes.

"But if you bring back Marilyn Monroe, what you would have is a caricature.

Lucas is himself a pioneer of digital special effects

"You could do it but you can't get a perfect actor.

"Acting is a human endeavour and the amount of talent and craft that goes into it is massive - and can a composite reproduce that?"

He added: "The voice would have to be dubbed and what was produced on screen would ultimately be the work of an animator."

The director was one of the first to make extensive use of digital technology when he used computer-generated special effects in the original Star Wars film in 1977.

But he said that recreating Hollywood greats would be a step too far.

"I can't see any reason to recreate John Wayne or Monroe.

"People don't want to see an imitation of someone who was a strong presence in real life," said Lucas.

btw randomly stumbled onto the fact that today is the anniversary of Guinea-Bissau's independence being recognized. Obligatory anthem which is one of my absolute favs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LZ-iCCJcl1A

They are continuing this with the goal of improving moral. They know their internal politics are even more fucked if the killing stops. So this way they can deal with the contradictions all the while the US will just pour money and weapons in and give them total support. If Israel was having this internal conflict without the war the US would probably pick a side again like when they gestured towards getting Bibi out of there a few years ago, iirc backing Bennet

Pretty sure there is a Guinea-Bissau flag in there. awesome

 

If I could sing a song for every bomb that flies

I'd sing each and all the days

If there were to be a verse for every dying child's cries

For every helpless father's gaze

If I wrote a love letter to each corpse as it is carried

I'd never still my pen

If I had to stop a moment for each one that's been buried

I'd never move again

And the stocks are going up in some safe place in America

Sing a song for Basra

If I could shed a tear for every home that bombs destroy

I'd never stop crying

If every broken brick were a heart of a little girl or boy

All the world's children would be sighing

If I could hold each shattered body, each baby stilled at birth

I'd have no time for loneliness

I'd spend all my time embracing the people of this savaged earth

Feeling the poisoned wind's caress

And the billionaires are laughing in some safe place in America

Sing a song for Basra

If each barren pharmacy were a woman's shining eyes

I'd fall in love forever

If every bombed-out kindergarten were a factory in disguise

Wouldn't that be clever

But bricks are only bricks, and dust is only dust

And death is all around

Each day another missile falls and sometimes the only thing to trust

Is the shaking of the ground

And they're loading up the warplanes in some safe place in America

Sing a song for Basra
