Pretty difficult to refute a single thing in this perfect assessment of where the f**k we are, from @iandunt.bsky.social:
The American political class is utterly delusional, adrift in a dream of normality, unable to process the actual reality of events on the ground, where the US just launched a completely unprovoked war against a massive country, murdered its leadership, and demanded its conversion to a vassal state.
The US also has intelligence suggesting that China may be preparing to provide Iran with financial assistance, spare parts and missile components, three people familiar with the matter said, though Beijing has stayed out of the war up until now. China relies heavily on Iranian oil and has reportedly been pressuring Tehran to allow safe passage for vessels through the Strait of Hormuz.
uh china is preparing to do what now edition.cnn.com/2026/03/06/p...
The use of AI targeting is already a controversy regarding Israel in Gaza, and is going to be an important question in this war.
"I feel liberated," said a top banker. "We can say 'retard' and 'pussy' withtout the fear of getting cancelled... its a new dawn"
We should never ever forget why they did it
We’ve got some big news: @sarahlongwell25.bsky.social is releasing her first book and you can pre-order it now!
“How to Eat an Elephant: One Voter at a Time” is the playbook for consigning MAGA-style politics to the ash heap of history where it belongs.
Order now before it drops on Sept. 8.
Maybe this is just me, but I kind of think massive military operations, in which we're demanding unconditional surrender as the outcome, probably should be authorized by Congress.
Yep. 10 cents more overnight.

Man radical social democracy with RAND aesthetics is pretty appealing to me personally however
The whole "radical social democracy with RAND Corporation aesthetics" thing just sounds like reinventing Cold War liberalism (often consciously so), which I get the appeal of but also would like to suggest that there is, perhaps, a real reason people came to distrust our institutions.
Happy Friday George
To think we clowned on Bismarck for losing to Fairey Swordfish!
Hooray, an objective!
Kalshi employees "kind of understand that without the tweets and the streamers and all of the social-media stuff that the traders do for them, usually just for free, their marketing would be a lot harder," said Jack Campion, 20, a junior at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and a Kalshi affiliate. In September, Kalshi briefly signed up a 15-year-old videogame streamer who goes by vertid online to promote its brand on X as an affiliate. A week later, Kalshi ended the partnership. "Yo brother, legal team confirmed that we can't work with minors rn," a Kalshi employee wrote to the user in messages reviewed by the Journal. "Kinda sad tbh."
what the fuck are we doing

Funny how they’re the presidents good friends even while they work to kill our citizens
Shiny shiny call of duty I guess
At the risk of repeating myself, they don't actually care about Americans any more than Iranians, they don't think of us as people they have an obligation to. We're just chaff to be ground up as they scheme to get richer and seize power and kill their enemies. Like peasants to tsars.
Battleship Bismarck heroically reports dozens of hits on enemy warships!
One weird trick to avoid such tragedies:
Don’t launch illegal, unnecessary wars on a whim.
Now you are thinking with Portals
Oh boy, man made horrors that are not beyond comprehension celebrated as an achievement
Hooray
