Just wait until the FBI exposes just how bad Pedowood really is. I'm convinced that they have many moles inside Hollywood and that it's just a matter of time before the whole house gets blown down.
The documentary An Open Secret reveals how sex predators gain the trust of child actors and their families, often under the radar of suspicion. When people are motivated by quick money and fame, they overlook what they would normally recognize as red flag behavior from their benefactors.

I also recommend Episode 2 of a USA Network show called Inside the FBI New York, which deals with sexually deviant crimes including pedophilia. The stings are real and the methods used by the FBI are pretty awesome. The SWAT raid seen in that episode is hilarious.

British PM Theresa May's Brexit deal has been rejected by 230 votes

Who didn't see this coming? Even the people who were pushing for Brexit had no idea how it was supposed to work.

This whole thing is a never ending cluster fuck, to be polite. There should have been a complete plan in place, that was ready to go after the referendum. I like everyone else in the UK, is fucking sick of it and want it to be over and done.

Interesting. This is probably why we try to consolidate so many things into every bill in the U.S.- because voting to do a thing, being locked into, and then being stuck with further votes to figure out how is kind of a mess.

As opposed to the U.S., where we focus on making every bill a complete package including all lose ends that also touches on three other unrelated items and makes them into law, too; hence our all-or-nothing bills frequently get shot down where a simpler version might have passed, and our government ends up shut down for more of the year than it's open... which is kind of a mess. :)

An Orca would actually make short work of that Great White. They've been known to utterly crush great whites. They basically tear out their livers and let the sharks bleed to death. Come to think of it, Orcas are actually larger as well.

As protests sweep Venezuela, the US, Canada, Brazil and a number of American nations declare the regime of Nicolas Maduro illegitimate and back Juan Guaido as president

Big, but potentially dangerous. The Venezuelan military and security services have traditionally sided with Maduro, and we could see a crackdown soon

I can't help but wonder when the military turns on Maduro. He doesn't have the luxury of giving Venezuela the good ol' days when his old boss, Hugo Chavez, did. I think this has the potential to be the South American version of Romania back in '89 when EVERYBODY turned against Ceacesceu.

Oh, and new sexual misconduct accusations have been leveled against Bryan Singer.

These two countries have had a blood feud for 72 years. If things don't get sorted out, this WILL turn really ugly really fast. And considering how India has been a new ally of the U.S. in the past few years and how Pakistan has always tried to make the U.S.A. and China its main ally-think of how North Korea always manipulated China and Russia into getting what it wanted depending on who was strong and in many ways, that's Pakistan's relationship with China and America-and how they've leaned toward China since the U.S. considered them less reliable in the years since 9/11, and this could have MAJOR repercussions.

I doubt that either the US or China are willing to get into a shooting war over India and Pakistan, if that's what you're implying. Even so, the fact that two nuclear powers are in a very real way on the brink of war is extremely concerning to say the least.
There's some rumors going on that India might retaliate against Pakistan soon for the downing of two Indian MiGs last night, either via more airstrikes or a ground incursion. Both sides have moved sizable amounts of troops and hardware to their borders, including tanks and AD systems.

No, not that far. But I do wonder what China and the U.S. will do because of all this via how far they will support their allies.
