Now would be a good time for anyone who wants to learn about recent Iranian history to read this. It is well worth your time and money (I am sure your local library has it if you donโt want to purchase it).
When you're devoid of humanity, so human lives are the last thing on your mind:
OMFG. ๐ฎโ๐จ
Apparently, all the credit card companies are US owned and operated. This makes anyone's credit incredibly vulnerable to sanctions issued by the US. I think the whole issue is made a bit gray by the fact that they are "publicly owned." ๐คท๐พ
It's never a good idea to "put all your eggs in one basket," but it seems like it was an even worse idea to allow the US to dominate so much on the national stage. Like, the US is the only place IN THE WORLD that handles credit cards. WTF? I'm shocked that any industrialized nation slept on that.
If you could ask the proverbial "enemies at the gate" one question that they'll answer honestly, what would it be?
Abolish ICE and CBP. After fully prosecuting everyone involved in such cruelty. Start from scratch.
This is the sort of thing I think of whenever I hear some "conservative" blathering on about real America and heritage and all the other nonsense that comes from white supremacist nonsense.

It's weird how difficult it is to find the number of people registered with whichever party. There are breakdowns per state, city, county, etc. At the national level, the word "affiliation" gets thrown around a lot. Vibes from polls. But, damn, being a registered [insert party here] is uncountable?
This entire series is fantastic. Among other things.

It's about being open bigots, apparently. The cruelty is indeed the point.
I love that this will probably live forever in the zeitgeist, haunting guitar enthusiasts for eternity.

It's not hard.
I'm glad someone shouted "liar" at him, relatively to his face. Makes sense it'd be the small, immigrant woman ready to fight a man who threw a liquid on her at a public event. ๐ค
How a society treats its powerless is reflective of that society.
A small blue snow thrower
Our wee snow-thrower was so intimidated by the storm, we had to bring it inside.
Massive investment in AI contributed โbasically zeroโ to U.S. economic growth last year, Goldman Sachs has calculated.

Wow, that's fuckin' great! Congrats, David!
I wonder if sex even sells anymore in the face of rage way, way, waaaaay outperfoming everything else, so often. :-/
*I believe the US Navy has two such boats and both of them are currently out of service for maintenance.
Trump: I'm going to send one of our great hospital boats* to Greenland to help all the sick people there not getting attention.
Greenland:
The Kavanaugh, Alito, and Clarence dissent on the tariff decision was just more of the utterly hypocritical and inconsistent bullshit that comes out of this court. I hope the "conservatives" on the US Supreme Court destroy each other. Soon.
A sign in a window reading "Stop trying to make everyone happy. You're not ice cream."
About 30 years ago, (before she was my wife) my wife accused me with "ice cream is always your solution" and...I dunno, I don't think it's always, but it's never wrong.
The trafficking of human beings like wares is an American tradition that needs to go away.
A future I'd be happy to get behind.
There's three votes for anything on the supreme court. If trump said "I'm the god-king of arrakis" he'd get three votes and a lengthy opinion about the long history and tradition of english common law with regards to the spice melange
Tarrifs.
Why the hell is the U.S. still punching Cuba in the face? Still trying to win the cold war? Racism? Habit? All of the above!?
