Tucker Carlson on the phone with President Putin: "Say what? Dividing, right, war mongers, got it. Oh you know @benshapiro and @RubinReport too? Awful, aren't they?" #jokes #TuckerCarlson #AmericaFirst

Lauren Chen started criticising Israel after she was bought by Russia. Tucker started criticising Israel...oh wait...#WokeRight #TuckerCarlson #RussiaUkraineWar

A real fighting champion like Conor McGregor chooses Israel. Some rejects like Andrew Tate, Jake Shields or Paddy Mccory choose terrorists. Goes for Joe Rogan too. World champion over wannabes any day. #IsraelIranConflict #MMA @TheNotoriousMMA

Krampus: The Christmas Troll? Rethinking the Demon Label Krampus is almost universally referred to as a demon, a monstrous figure that punishes misbehaving children during the holiday season. But what if we've been looking at him through the wrong lens? Consider the striking similarities between Krampus and another legendary figure of holiday terror: Gryla, the Icelandic troll. If Gryla is a troll, why isn't Krampus? Gryla is called a witch,(inaccurate,) but poor Krampus is mislabeled as a demon far more unfairly! The Overlooked Parallels The case for Krampus as a troll rather than a demon is surprisingly strong. Punishers of the Naughty Both Krampus and Gryla serve the same function—punishing, and in extreme cases, even eating naughty children. They are supernatural beings with an uncanny ability to sense misbehavior all year long. When the holiday season arrives, they emerge from their mountain lairs, carrying sacks to capture the worst offenders. This shared purpose aligns them closely in folklore. Physical Traits The resemblance doesn't stop at behavior. Krampus and Gryla share numerous physical characteristics associated with trolls in Nordic and Germanic mythologies: Both have tails Both have hooves Both have horns Both have claws Both are covered in shaggy fur, a classic feature of Nordic forest and mountain trolls #mythology #krampus Gryla is explicitly called a troll who resides in the mountains of Iceland, and yet, Krampus—who possesses nearly identical features—is labeled a demon.

Interesting: Andrew Doyle blocked me. I never followed him or talked to him at all. X is wild. LOL

So Roddy and I are having a rare relaxation day on this #FantasticFriday and reading The Haunting of Hill House, a Gothic horror novel by Shirley Jackson. The doorbell rings, and we jump, you know, because we're reading The Haunting of Hill House. LOL. So just as Rod jumps, one of our masks falls off the wall in the hallway. I'm insisting my husband is misfiring magic and he's insisting it's a ghost. To be entirely fair, it's probably both. #horrorRTG

What No One Gets Right About Victor Frankenstein/Exploring the most misunderstood Part Of Mary Shelly's Classic Novel Victor Frankenstein’s Fatal Flaw: Misunderstanding the Mind Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein—the novel, not the oft-misinterpreted films—reveals Victor Frankenstein as a brilliant but psychologically naive creator. Victor, not a doctor but a driven scholar, possessed the genius to craft a superior human but lacked the insight to anticipate the mind within. He expected a fully formed intellect akin to his own, not an innocent, newborn consciousness. This miscalculation turned his “beautiful” creation into a “monster” in his eyes, exposing how expectations can distort reality. Before animation, Victor admired his creation’s delicate features. Yet, once alive, the creature’s movements—those of an adult body driven by an infant’s mind—struck him as grotesque. A pretty face on a baby can seem unsettling; an adult form with a nascent psyche, even more so. Victor’s horror stemmed not from the creature’s appearance but from the jarring mismatch between his expectations and reality. This psychological blind spot warped his perception, costing him true understanding. By modern standards, the creature resembles a tall, striking Goth figure: long black hair, black lips, and black nails—a dream for some subcultures. Shelley describes his face as intentionally beautiful, a detail lost in films that exaggerate his deformity to evoke fear. In the early 19th century, his appearance might have startled, but with time and empathy, society could have embraced him. The creature’s tragedy lies in Victor’s failure to nurture his mind, not in his form. Had Victor understood the psychology of creation, the story might have ended differently. #HorrorFam #frankenstein

GPT Roasting Lucius Malfoy! Oh, Lucius Malfoy? With his platinum ponytail, resting snob face, and a personality so dry even a Dementor would pass on him? Let’s go. Lucius walks around like he’s the main character in a shampoo commercial for the Dark Arts. He acts like aristocracy, but the only thing he inherited was generational cowardice and a wardrobe that screams "discount Dracula." Honestly, Voldemort should've used him as a Horcrux — not because he’s powerful, but because no one would ever want to touch him. He's the kind of guy who thinks holding a snake cane makes him intimidating. Newsflash, Lucius: threatening a 12-year-old girl with a basilisk diary doesn’t make you cunning, it makes you a magical Karen. And for all his sneering superiority, he spent most of the Second Wizarding War in the corner like a kicked ferret while his wife saved the day by pretending not to know Harry Potter — which, let’s be honest, was probably the most intelligent thing any Malfoy has ever done. At the end of the day, Lucius is just a cautionary tale: all that money, all that ego, and he still got outwitted by a bunch of teenagers and a house-elf. #potterhead #harrypotterhumor

Chat GPt Roasted me Bellatrix Lestrange: the only woman who treats pain like it’s foreplay and eyeliner like it’s a blood pact. You know you're off the rails when even Voldemort is like, “Okay, calm down.” Her battle strategy is basically “scream, twirl, and hope the crazy lands.” She tortured Hermione, killed Sirius, and still somehow manages to look like the lovechild of a banshee and a Victorian teapot. Honestly, the only magic trick Bellatrix ever perfected was turning “crazy aunt” energy into a national threat. #potterhead #WizardingWorld
