in 2012, Wiz Khalifa bought a $900,000 mansion in Canonsburg, PA, about 25 miles from where he went to high school. The 3,891 square feet mansion packs “5 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms and 15-ft ceilings” which may not be enough for his ambitions of having “a bitch in every corner”.

Pillow talk is basically intimate post-sex conversation. It’s usually presented as a moment of vulnerability during spies will steal your secrets (“honeypots”) but it’s a real thing because of science!

More specifically, pillow talk happens because your brain releases oxytocin during sex and orgasm. It’s a hormone that is fundamentally important to cementing social relationships, whether they are between friends, strangers, or partners.

This is a sentiment that goes as far back as the Bible, specifically the first story of the Old Testament: Adam and Eve.

After creating Earth, Adam and then Eve, God forbade the pair from eating from the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil.

Lucifer (the Devil) came to Eve in the form of a snake and convinced her to eat the fruit. Adam followed and the fruit gave them the knowledge they were naked so they clothed themselves with leaves.

This made it plain to God they violated his one rule: to avoid the tree of knowledge. When he asked what happened, Adam blamed Eve and Eve blamed the serpent.

The implication here is that America has not been leading the world,–thanks to Obama–but strong GOP leadership can return America to it’s exceptional position.

This is not Scott Walker’s first time using this rhetoric. In fact the GOP as a whole has begun to adopt it more widely, each candidate insisting they are the right person for the job.

Super PACs on the GOP side have raised significant sums of money alongside Republican candidate campaigns.

Jeb Bush’s campaign itself raised $11.4 million dollars. His super PAC, Right to Rise, has raised $103 million since January.

Ted Cruz’s campaign has generated $14.2 million while four super PACs that support him have collected another $37 million.

Marco Rubio has pulled in $12 million on top of the $31.8 million raised by two super PACs supporting him.

One of the other concerns Israel has concerning a nuclear Iran is the fact that this would challenge Israeli dominance of the region.

The US intelligence consistently admits there is no evidence Iran is developing nuclear weapons but if they were, it would be a part of a deterrence strategy. This would lead us to conclude, correctly, that the fear is over what a deterrence strategy means for the projection of power into the region.

Professor Noam Chomsky, a leading American political commentator, explains that

their general strategic posture is one of deterrence. They have low military expenditures. According to U.S. intelligence, their strategic doctrine is to try to prevent an attack, up to the point where diplomacy can set in

The deal would indeed be a “historic mistake for the world” if the world was solely concerned with the ability of the United States and its allies (Israel) to maintain their preferred system of order in the region.

The general range of discussion–recently–has taken on two dimensions: either (1) “deter” Iran from pursuing a nuclear program or (2) forcibly stop the country from doing so.

Both camps, however, share the general sentiment that Iran is nonetheless a threat and would jump at the chance to get nuclear weapons.

For example, Professor Amitai Etzioni, from the deterrence camp, argues for

…a military option that would target Iran’s non-nuclear military assets, and keep up the bombing campaign even against infrastructure until Tehran relents. ‘This kind of military action is akin to sanctions – causing 'pain’ in order to change behaviour, albeit by much more powerful means.'

Some of the more militant hawks, such as Former US Amabassador to the UN John Bolton, argue fully for a bombing campaign against Iran but insist

Even absent palpable proof, like a nuclear test, Iran’s steady progress toward nuclear weapons has long been evident.

The problem is, however, that the United States government itself has admitted that steady progress towards has not been evident, ever. In 2010, the Department of Defense released a comprehensive analysis of Iran’s military programs and nuclear program and concluded:

[Iran’s military spending is] relatively low compared to the rest of the region…defensive, designed to slow an invasion and force a diplomatic solution to hostilities…[and] Iran’s nuclear program and its willingness to keep open the possibility of developing nuclear weapons is a central part of its deterrent strategy.

Another way of saying “kill a beat” is to “eat beats”/eat beets.

I am a vegetarian, man I only eat beats

Beets are a vegetable that could actually help Wayne kill beats as they increase blood flow–both to muscles and the brain but they’re not always scrumptious as the taste can range from sugary to metallic or plainly like dirt.

Bruce Wayne is Batman’s secret identity, so Wiz is probably referring to a Lamborghini Murciélago which Bruce drove in the Batman trilogy.

His weed has a kick to it, similar to Liu Kang, one of the original characters from the Mortal Kombat fighting game series whose signature moves are powerful kicks.
