If I used AI I would have prompted: β€œcreate an image of Trump, arms wide-open Titanic-style, front and center on the stern of a tanker steaming through the Straight of Hormuz. His cabinet stands behind him, arms crossed looking like baddies. All of their shoes are two sizes too big.β€œ

At least we are about to be put out of our collective misery as a fandom and this is the last Indiana basketball game we will have to suffer through this season.

This lineup feels right. Of course any foul trouble by the big guys and it is a bust but it seems to be working. #iubb

Democrats ask what happened to millions earmarked for Trump’s library ABC, Meta, Paramount and X reportedly agreed to pay at least $63 million in settlements with the president. The original fund was dissolved last year.

Looks like Trump pocketed the $63 million in settlement money that was intended for his presidential library.

This war has killed 8 sons and daughters of the United States. But Trump’s sons are getting richer so, priorities right?

β€œWell, actually the president has little control of gas prices.” -Trump today probably.

We’re cursed. It is the only rational explanation.

Including 14 percent of Republicans which is honestly higher than I’d expect.

BREAKING: Senator Blumenthal states Trump regime just briefed them on sending US troops to fight in Iran.

Boots on the ground.

A reminder that him & Netanyahu will not send their sons, but they expect your sons and daughters to go die for them so they can stay out of prison. Are we great yet?πŸ€”

For years on my old blog I published the names of servicemembers who died in Iraq & Afghanistan. No other outlets were.

These are the first 4 Americans to die in the Iran War.
Capt. Cody A. Khork, 35
Sgt. 1st Class Noah L. Tietjens, 42
Sgt. 1st Class Nicole M. Amor, 39
Sgt. Declan J. Coady, 20

Now is precisely the time when you pressure the Democrats. Especially when it comes to war and national security they are weak as shit.

Can we stop with every Dem politician starting their statement with β€œThe Iran regime is brutal…” we know this. But we also know nobody elected really cares. If they did they would bring that energy to speaking out against Saudi Arabia…

Realizing just how radicalized this admin has made me. I can’t stop shaking thinking of the families about to bury their children while Trump sits on a golden toilet.

The acts of defiance can be big or small. Painting over a bigoted piece of graffiti. Running a youth club for refugees in an area that mostly loathes them. Wearing a rainbow flag in an anti-queer neighbourhood.
These acts all accumulate towards something better, I have seen that in action.

Good thing to remember online right now is that everyone here is very emotionally dysregulated and dealing with that by posting

Also, I’d like to believe nothing in this map is at all confidential but with this admin. 🀷

This is all because 10+ years ago The Apprentice got preempted by Obama announcing we killed Bin Laden.

Black and white photo of Marjane Satrapi with the quote:

"The world is not divided between East and West. You are American. I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you.

And our governments are very much the same."

"The Islamists oppose women getting an education," I mutter, as I aim my missile at the girls school

MSNOW is reporting that the Strait of Hormuz, the shipping channel through which 1/5th of all the world’s oil flows, is now shut down.

Always the girls. Always. That the biggest casualties from their strike would be innocent girls can’t be something we are desensitized to but it’s also how all of their atrocities end with pain for women and girls.
