It's very funny that on X there are swarms of campists and hasbaraniks fighting each other with propaganda and misinformation and constantly proclaiming total victory, and over here its the same thing, except we're all just shadowboxing at AI like usual.
So many Kฤkฤpล, and yet they do nothing about the escalating crisis in the Persian Gulf?
Shameful. Their silence is deafening.

All right, let's do one more. Got inspired to do the institutional diagram in part thanks to your Pax Americana.
This one is less of a "really big USA" and more of an EU-esque scheme encompassing North/Central America and the Caribbean.

Best case scenario seems to be "the status quo, but less stable and with a higher baseline level of ambient violence", which seems like it was totally worth killing a few thousand people and spending a few billion dollars to achieve.
It is not surprising, or even really objectionable that American Jewish organizations tends to view ๐ฎ๐ฑ/๐ต๐ธ almost entirely through the lens of domestic and communal politics; the problem is that you can't object when people outside your community have a different set of priorities.
Always hard to evaluate this stuff but she's pretty reliable so far as I can tell and that does not look small.
He used to show up in my mentions and fight with me over word definitions and whether "small" and "tiny" were synonymous or not, it was so fucking tedious.
Something big blew up at an airbase in Kuwait today but I don't think anybody knows what yet.

Jesse's whole shtick for a while now has been "gender-affirming care for minors is a sick, monstrous scam perpetuated by incompetent hacks who are torturing innocent children because of woke ideology, and how very dare you assume I oppose that, I'm suing you for defamation". It gets tiring.
We will see if it levels off here again or if I give into the siren song of making more lists of battle boats yet again.
Been expanding my UNSC OrBat again as self-therapy, and also because I think it wasn't big enough to secure the scale of territory I ended up assigning it. Currently at 133 warships (80 escorts, 27 capitol ships, 12 cruisers, 5 light carriers, 4 tenders, 5 planetary assault) and 34 auxiliaries. ๐
Would not surprise me if he is exaggerating the extent of the damage, though it'd be frustrating as he has been pretty reliable thus far.

I actually think this contretemps is a good illustration of why this can be so confusing; we generally see war today as something *done by* the United States under its own agency and full control of the process, *to* somebody else, rather than a violent dispute between peers contesting something.
Not a good day for air defense in general it seems.
They immediately deleted the first post, and I've seen some speculation that the change from "crash" to "shot down" is significant, though that may be overthinking things.
Oh no, I would be incredibly owned if we actually started discussing the details of Israeli state policy and evaluating it instead of just repeating the same ten slogans over and over again, please don't make people actually think about this issue, that would be terrible.

No, as far as I can tell, it's totally speculation.
Iranians got a missile through to Bahrain today.
There are not "enough Democratic votes to authorize the conflict" if Republicans keep outvoting Democrats.
The Republicans voted to support the war with the support of a single Democrat and you think that shows that Democrats support the war?
we are androgynous double-faced beings/torn from each other and rendered in two/two flaming swords guard the garden of Eden/but I wonโt go back there without you
Being officially denied now fyi.
Something appears to have blown up in the Eastern Mediterranean.
