I still have no idea what our official justification for this war is.
someone at the pentagon frantically typing “Claude, open the strait of Hormuz for me, quickest possible strategy, make no mistakes.”
I know we say "main character syndrome"a lot but watching people who genuinely cannot conceive of other people in other countries existing as anything but vectors for American vibes is surreal af to actually watch in practice
Important and helpful thread from Prof. Saunders on the link between the genesis and spiraling chaos of this war (sorry, “limited operation”) and the destruction of the State Dept and USAID.
I will be at Little King’s Shuffle Club in Athens enjoying the greatest PBR and loosie of my life.

I’ve honestly been afraid to watch, worried it won’t even come close to the original.
A “limited operation” to achieve “unconditional surrender” but definitely not a war. Except for the other times they’ve described it as a war. You seriously can’t make this shit up.
I too remember the earlier, woke wars. tons of spent microaggression munitions strewn about everywhere, friends crying out for God as they were slowly cancelled...look, if you weren't there, you'll never understand
Well, gas is expensive, and food is expensive, and we’re doing a war nobody wants, but at least there are no jobs
@landontalks.bsky.social have you covered “ditty bop” yet? As in the driving maneuver of questionable legality that you use to correct a missed turn or effectuate a short cut.
Caught myself explaining that to my five year old just now.

This is incredible.

These people are sick. Deeply broken. Detached from their humanity in a way that is honestly hard to fathom.
They’re also cowards who will gladly bomb kids and put service members in harms way for clicks.
I’m deeply ashamed of my country.
So just to recap current state:
* US is murdering fishermen (excuse me, “verified” drug lords) in the open water
* Bombed a girls school claiming some 150 lives
* And torpedoed an unarmed ship, leaving the survivors to drown (per Hegseth, “a quiet death)
Welcome @doctorow.pluralistic.net. Personally stoked because I just finished Radicalized and Enshittification (yes, I’m late to the party). Excited to follow along.

With a nice Chianti.
This resource is amazing.
If you sort by net worth, you have to go down *30* entries to find someone under 9+ figures
That honor goes to Mehmet Oz. $88M.

When your Wayne half doesn’t agree with your Mark half.
What the actual fuck
I thought I was well beyond being shocked by this regime.
But talking about drapes in this specific moment is truly Mad King shit.
100%. You know Nancy’s staff has been using their prayer group as cover to talk shit.
We are at war for no good reason because we created a presidency with unbounded war powers and then elected a madman to it www.vox.com/politics/481...
there's a lot of specific overwhelming and massive crises happening at once and every single one has at its root elites who did crimes and never suffered consequences for it.
never look at your phone when you get up to take a leak. someone might have started an idiot war
what a crazy night for sam altman to be like "yeah we got that dept of war deal, and there's no moral concerns here"
News item: "new SpongeBob movie streaming now." Photo of a live action blond lady in winter clothes with a sniper rifle in a snowy tundra looking bleak.
Wow that franchise took a dark turn
