Enjoy your new Forever War, MAGA.

25th Amendment and a full reset now, or the world will be voluntarily building a wall around the US and Israel.

Israel doing its own Agent Orange thing, it seems.

Disgusting.

"We are not neutral. We are supportive to Iran." - Andrei Kelin, Russian ambassador to the UK.

Kelin is one of the harshest mouthpieces of Russia's confrontation with the West. Kelin never speaks by his own accord, he transmits the Kremlin's position.

Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 - Wikipedia

Buk 9M38 isn't an 'obsolete missile captured from Ukraine'. It's what the russian forces were using, you vatnik nitwit.

Russia shot down MH17, then lied about it like they lied about shooting down Azerbaijan Airlines Flight 8243, then lied about it.

This is no different from Putin saying MH17 was shot down by Ukraine or Assad saying rebels gassed themselves.

"Oil prices are up about 50%. You should expect gas prices to rise about 50%... Gas... about $3 a gallon... you should therefore expect gas to be a bit above $4 a gallon...

So if you get an opportunity to stop by the president's gas station when he's seeing it at $2 a gallon... definitely fill up "

Technically the US is using the metric system, just indirectly via made-up units defined using the metric system and such.

I guess it's one way to have your cake and eat it?

I never really understood how people can be scared of cute lil' arachnid buddies, but feel safe around clowns.

Maybe it's the movies I watched as a child, but they still terrify me on a fundamental level. It's just not healthy when someone dresses up like that.

The six US soldiers who were KIA and the others who were WIA very likely were targeted by Iran after Russia provided the targeting intel using their spy satellites and rest of their network.

Putin has enabled the killing of US soldiers. Piggy is fine with this.

Chinese High Speed Rail built since 2008, overlayed on the USA and Canada.  There's a legend in the lower right showing lines capable of various speeds.  Most of the mapping is on the east coast of the US, equivalent to the dense urban centers of eastern China.

Chinese High Speed Rail built since 2008, overlayed on the USA and Canada. There's a legend in the lower right showing lines capable of various speeds. Most of the mapping is on the east coast of the US, equivalent to the dense urban centers of eastern China.

If the US & Canada had been building high-speed rail at the same rate as China since 2008, you could travel from Toronto to DC in <4 hrs for about $80.

They've built ~50,000 km (31,000 miles) as of 2025.

Some lines operate at 350 km/h (217 mph) with increased speeds planned.

With all the wars and crises going on in the world, let's discuss arts.

Russia is back at the Venice Biennale. This is not just art - it’s a cultural-information operation: an effort to make the presence of an aggressor state appear "normal" again.

The US Evangelical base at least seems nutty enough to force a Jonestown on the rest of the US. So yeah, terrifying thought.
