Can he last 107 more days for the century mark?

Their manifestos arent so different. Labour will win because of the Tories, Labour wont win because of Labour.

Donald Trump is 78 today

I should also add that this new record has overtaken the previous record in 2011, as of today!

0 deaths in 5 months as of today. Historically there has not been a bigger gap between hits since 1990-1992.

I swear sometimes people just say shit for the sake of saying shit...

Lmao wtf?

Have any records been broken over DL's nearly 5 month no death streak?

If Trump goes to prison then it'll be Nelson Mandela all over again. Only difference is that Trump will probably go to one of the nicer prisons with the golf course etc... Why cant the Dems just vote for someone normal to beat him?

Surprised to see this thread doesn't exist already... Schwab is the chairman of the World Economic Forum and the author of a few books, his most known book is called Covid 19: The Great Reset - which he elaborates that, in his idealistic world, people will "öwn nothing and be happy". He is considered the emperor of the world, according to conspiracy studies, due to his one-world-government globalist views. Behold the guy who looks like he's never smiled in his life. He's turning 84 next month...

Super chill, empathetic guy who really liked Jews posthumously turns 135 today

Plot twist: mymango was Jimmy Carter trolling us the entire time

Mymango is actually 100% correct here. I also hear the Carter Foundation have events where a Jimmy Carter dummy gets thrown into traffic, just so the public are prepared for his passing

Lmao I was going by how well perceived they are generally - imo those two always play the same characters for every movie they're in. Same goes for Seth Rogan and Jack Black.

The rule I would put in would be to cast someone on merit. Dont hire someone solely because of their skin colour. There are plenty of diverse actors, like The Rock, Samuel L Jackson, Kevin Hart, Will Smith, Martin Lawrence, Ice Cube etc who are some of the world's greatest actors. They dont need diversity quotas in order to get them into films. Lets say you are a director and you want to make a film that appeals to black audiences, as well as white, then naturally you'll want to represent them - especially if you're making a film for typically younger audiences. There's absolutely nothing wrong with this but your film shouldn't revolve around how diverse it is - as it just seems patronising, not to mention that it'll become obvious that you've clearly hired someone to be the token black person in your film. Usually the blame is shared between hiring bad actors because you have a quota to fill and overall bad writing/storytelling. If I'm watching a film, I like the characters to be multi-dimensional. They need a good backstory, motivations, challenges and subtleties that help you identify with the character and make him/her feel real (like a favourite colour, interest, consistency in clothing style, bodily habit eg: thumb twiddling, wrist scratching, ear picking or telling signs when the character is lying etc etc). A diverse character only feels like a diversity quota filler when the character is bad IMO. Its the same feeling when a big celebrity is shoehorned into a film/tv show, you just know that they're only there because its Stephan Colbert/Donald Trump/whoever.

I think she means positive discrimination - eg: Police only offering jobs to minority/non-white applicants

Thats probably the biggest nothing answer I've seen on this site lmao

I mean if the actress has hired on her merit as an actress then yeah there's no problem there. Only thing is that often diversity casting feels forced. Star Wars being a good example, although you could put some of it down to the terrible writing. I was very excited for the Obi Wan Kenobi series but the writing wasn't good and the Reva character was badly acted and was terribly written - but the story was praised for its diversity. The story should matter WAY more than how diverse the cast is.

My opinion is that we can live in a world where we fight prominent injustices yet keep everyone's right to say what they want. Tolerance being mandatory, but you can have your opinions. The way my own life has most been affected by the censorship caused from the woke ideology would be the change in rules in comedy. I love off-colour humour, be it memes, stand-up, youtube or whatever. I can understand why people don't like dark humour - but if you don't like something then don't watch it. Don't ruin it for everyone else. The new GTA is a good example. The GTA series is full of controversial jokes and missions etc. Its supposed to be, its a game for mature audiences that promotes all immoral things. Now GTA is being watered down to make it PC, like who asked for that? Its an 18+ game. You dont need to be politically correct in a game you kill hookers and work for bad people. I also dont like the idea that people are cancelled for their opinions, be it fired from their jobs or banned from social media. Unless they want to cause physical harm to someone or believe in some extremist cause, like ISIS or BNP, then I dont think we should be cancelling people. As far as those people go, we should open a dialogue and debate those beliefs - instead of just being afraid of them. Otherwise a 'forbidden fruit' effect happens where those people feel like they are being censored because they know the truth - which is probably why the far right is currently on the rise worldwide. I think thats why the term 'woke' is so hated by so many. When created, being woke (as aforementioned) meant being aware of injustices that do not directly affect you but affects others. It took compassionate people to promote this mindset but it also took totalitarian idiots to later ruin it by enforcing censorship, being condescending about how self-righteous they are and seeking out injustice where it doesnt exist (like with the scone thing or Henry VIII being disabled). Also maybe it would not has escalated to this extent had it not been for President Trump on the other end of the pendulum, so its not like the blame is all on one side.

Juliet isn't black though, she is Italian. So it would make sense for her to be (or look) Italian. Otherwise its like making Mogli from the Jungle Book Swedish, deliberate inaccuracy for the sake of diversity. Also who exactly is this helping? All black people? Seems kinda patronising tbh.

Had this come through as an alert on my phone. Not cool, No Context Brits...

Woke is good when it comes to fighting injustices like modern day slavery, sexual harassment, gay rights in 3rd world countries and police brutality. Its good to have awareness about stuff like that, which is what the term 'woke' is supposed to mean. The biggest problem is that people are digging for injustices in things when there isnt any there (eg dressing as Hitler at a costume party or saying milk/scones are racist). That and extreme pandering, like making Juliet black in the new Romeo and Juliet. At that point its just showing off how 'not racist' you are - which counterintuitively makes people question if you'd done something racist/dangerously unwoke in the past which you are trying to overcompensate for.

Saw the latest season of Curb and he only appeared in a few scenes sitting down due to him becoming increasingly frail. Since he has had a massive array of health problems in the past too, I'd thought I'd add him to DL.
