I'm sorry ma'am, but your son perished on Kharg Island in a valiant effort to create Wii Bowling meme videos for the White House X account. In the face of danger, he was not cringe; he was based to his last breath. Please have this commemorative Epic Fury challenge coin. Yes that's Punisher, ma'am

Doesn't sound like a country with a military that is defeated to me, but what do I know?
Ossoff: "The WH put out a video depicting this war as a video game. When service members are returning in flag-draped coffins, & even more have lost limbs or suffered brain injuries or are fighting for their lives, this WH treats war like a game. It's a disgrace. And it speaks to a moral rot."
"Fuck 'em. It's their job to die."
I had assumed the headline was a joke. But no.

A Democrat has won the mayor's seat in Boca Raton... by one vote:
Rapidly moving back to a world where every essay has to be written longhand and every exam has to be viva voce. This is not in any way going to democratise access to higher education.
14 months in, btw
Still much more than two years to go on the Trump regime, by the way.
Absolutely awful result in the "antifa terrorism" trial against the Prairieland noise demonstrators. Innocent people convicted under conspiracy statutes because they had zines at home, or wore black, or were in a Signal chat — even those who did not actually participate in the demonstration.
This is a good lesson for journalists: Use plain language to state true things clearly.
When a federal judge (finally) put ICE officers under oath, they admitted that they are given daily detention quotas and rely heavily on a Palantir-supplied AI tool to select targets, without warrants and without enough evidence to obtain one. They simply go into neighborhoods and round people up.
Jews are targeted in shuls & online.
Brown & Black people are abducted and sent to concentration camps.
Muslims are openly targeted by politicians.
Activists & journalists are targeted by the FBI.
Trans & queer people are being outlawed.
We are in this together. This is why solidarity matters.
The simple question any reporter should ask here is "what do you mean by that?" but they can't even muster that.
Trump has always been a eugenicist, obsessed with "good" and "bad" genes, but the media largely ignores or sanewashes it.

The fact that the US military engages in war criming should not suprise as they have always done so.
The difference is they are not even trying to hide it now.

This is crucially important point.
1) "No quarter" is indeed specifically war-crime term
2) Under Geneva Conventions, after sinking an enemy ship, the attackers must "take all positive measures" to find and rescue any survivors. Text in next post
No evidence US sub did so after attack, AFAIK
Unsolicited Writing Advice
It helps to keep in mind that writing typically isn't the process of turning your thoughts into sentences on a page. It's rather the process of figuring out what your thoughts are by writing sentences on a page and then deleting most of them
Hegseth: "We will keep pushing, keep advancing. No quarter, no mercy for our enemies."
No quarter is the refusal to take prisoners and instead just execute everyone. It's been considered a war crime for over a century.
Gore seksistische denkbeelden normaliseren als iets waar je “gewoon van mening over kunt verschillen”. Het levert tenslotte interactie op, lezers die langer blijven hangen — en dus advertentiecentjes. Zo ziet het eruit wanneer “content” maken belangrijker wordt dan journalistieke integriteit.
Rather surprising that Zoom and Teams don't have a soothing music option for the pre-meeting part of a hybrid meeting while people in the room are have their own little chats and the room mic flits from conversation to conversation like an injured moth.
Those little girls didn't stand a chance!
When someone in power talks about the need for "patriotic media," you know it is time to resist, and resist hard.
