Me: And we didn't get the hang of film badges until a few years later. But what we had noticed was the depression of white blood cell counts due to over exposure, which we'd now call a symptom of acute radiation sickness.

The Most Chilling Detail in the U.S. Attack on an Iranian Naval Ship The Iranian warship was taking part in an international exercise with many other countriesβ€”including the United States.

That Iranian Navy ship we torpedoed had no ammunition on board because that was a requirement to participate in the MILAN 2026 exercise (organized by the Indian Navy).

The US Navy knew this because IT ALSO PARTICIPATED IN THE EXERCISE. What a national embarrassment.

/3 It also omits some of the most striking evidence, like the fact that the mother specifically told the father to lock up the guns after she watched a documentary about a school shooting and he refused because he didn’t want to deal with the β€œshitstorm.” That’s depraved indifference right there.

/2 For instance, she treats it as an unanswered question why the mother wasn’t charged as well, even though prosecutors explicitly answered that: because the mother didn’t have custody, possession of the weapons, or the capacity to lock them up.

I think our country sinks beneath the yoke:
It weeps, it bleeds, and each new day a gash

BlackRock just blocked investors from pulling their money after $1.2B tried to flee its $26B private credit fund. When Wall Street funds start limiting withdrawals, it’s usually a sign the β€œeverything is fine” memo just expired. οΏΌ

The β€œmedia bias” chart so many people keep sharing is very dumb. This one I made a few years ago contains the same information and is just as useful.

Bear in mind these are the same Americans who wouldn't wear a goddamn mask to keep from spreading a novel plague to their neighbors. Americans, by and large, aren't willing to sacrifice shit for their own children.

The question I would ask anyone cheering this is how would they feel if Iran put stuff like this out about dead Americans?

Blowtorching diplomatic and humanitarian capacity while burning through military capabilities and alienating allies is malpractice of the highest order by the Secretary of State, the nation's top DIPLOMAT, and by the National Security Advisor. It does not help the military to kill US diplomacy. 14/

That's not true. But in February of 1846 the Mormons of Nauvoo began fleeing the city across the perhaps-miraculously frozen-over Mississippi River to avoid an interview with Chotiner.

If Dolly were to give a press conference and announce she has a surprise, and then tear off her human skin to reveal herself as Trogdora the Burninator, about half of Bluesky (Yr Hmbl Crrspd't included) would immediately swear fealty to her and join whatever crusade she was leading.

Now, I spent most of my time at the Combined Arms and Services Staff School wasted on Jose Cuervo, but I think the technical planning term for that is "not just fucked, but FUCKED fucked, lmao."

But we have no reason to think consciousness is linked to those capabilities. Our animal ancestors were conscious well before they emerged. It’s like expecting your car to lick itself because it and a cheetah both move fast.

My university received a few years ago the promise of the largest single gift to a public university in U.S. history. It was equivalent to 12 hours of bombing Iran.

nobody seems to fucking get this!!!! "the enemy gets a vote" but moreover trump/israel deliberately killed all the people at the top controlling the enemy, which does not destroy the enemy but in fact turns them into a dozen new, smaller enemies!! I feel like i'm going fucking insane

"We're fighting to win the war"

We are a week in and absolutely nobody has any idea what the political aim we're attempting to achieve is. Win what? Literally what are we fighting to achieve at the moment.

I have absolutely no idea atm if we are close to winning because I have no idea what we want

Joe Jackson - Steppin' Out
Joe Jackson - Steppin' Out YouTube video by JoeJacksonVEVO

At once impeccably cool and aggressively unfashionable, Joe Jackson’s Steppin’ Out is four minutes of nightmare disco and nightclub jitters which paves the way from β€˜Goodbye Yellow Brick Road’ to the Magnetic Fields. Detours through Motown and Freud. A perfect single. www.youtube.com/watch?v=PJwt...
