War on water.

Yeah probably because all of the other ones were doing their fucking job
It could not be more obvious that the president does not care about US service members and in fact regards their deaths as mere political inconveniences. He has more sympathy for Putin than Americans who died because he decided to wage illegal war. Just listen to him.
North Tehran’s Aqdasiyeh oil depot is ablaze tonight after it was targeted by multiple US-Israeli airstrikes. Apocalyptic scenes filmed by Iranians driving on the nearby highway. Local reporters saying firefighters can’t put it out. This depot is critical energy infrastructure for Iran.
Destruction is easier than creation.
Reminiscent of Putin blaming Ukraine for bombing Ukrainian civilians.
Trump multiple times just today has said the country is at war. War can only be declared by Congress, and Iran posed no imminent threat. What Trump is doing there is a textbook illegal war and impeachable offense — if we still had a Congress.
Staff at the nation’s largest Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention facility have placed bets on which detainee will be the next to die by suicide, according to new reporting from the Associated Press based on 911 calls and detainee accounts.
I’m sorry, doing this in a baseball cap sold by your campaign store is deliberately disrespecting the dead.
the IRA is an unfortunate example of the failure of the non-bigoted theory of popularism
it was a good law that poured piles of money into infrastructure (in rural areas!) and they got zero credit for it from the people who complain about those sorts of things, because the complaining is the point
the problem, fundamentally, is that rural voters don't want the economy to be "good" in the typical sense of being efficient or productive, they want it to be "good" in a moral sense where it rewards the people and industries they like
what the rurals want is to be given everything they ask for and told that they’re better than the city dwellers and that’s why they deserve it, and while individual dems can run campaigns on it, it’s not a national party responsibility to back them up
i understand that rural democrats frequently have to run against the party and don’t even begrudge them that, but the idea that rural america gets left out of big, national democratic infrastructure initiatives is just typical rural grievance mongering
this was the IRA, which every senate democrat voted for and every senate republican voted against
The national suicide being committed by the Republican-led United States has no historical precedent. Centuries from now (if humanity survives that long), historians will struggle to explain how such a thing was possible.
New footage analysed by Bellingcat shows two of the world’s most wanted crime figures, Christy and Daniel Kinahan, appearing openly at a mixed martial arts event in Dubai, despite US sanctions and multimillion-dollar rewards for information leading to their arrest.

WH official: “We want to seize all the oil from Iran. The long-term benefit is getting massive oil reserves out of the hands of terrorists.”
Well, a lot of them might have restraining orders and rules about being near schools.
Internet Matts were a mistake
This guy gets it.
Mind destroyingly stupid NYT headline: Trump echoes fdr and grant in calling for “unconditional surrender”
In a year of stupid headlines, what to even say, this has to be among the stupidest and frankly most offensive yet
Kamala Harris: "I predicted a lot about what's happening right now. I'm not here to say 'I told you so,' but we did see it coming."
In a few years some former ICE goon to be the one the online Tribunes of the People have decided is the indispensable man.
to me it rocks that this company that has never come within light-years of making money and has a bad product with zero practical use cases is the pivot point of the global economy because a bunch of embarrassing Burning Man dorks just decided it should be
“Unobtanium” is a long-running engineering/science semi-joke term for any material you need for a design which has difficult/impossible physical requirements or is too expensive. In the 70’s, the Skunkworks called titanium “unobtanium” because the major sources were in the USSR.
You gotta have fun in this job.
I once named a new gauge group “ectocolor” specifically so I could make an ectoplasma joke for audience of exactly one.
The *only* criticism about Avatar I won’t countenance are complaints about calling the miracle material “unobtainium.”
As a scientist, that’s exactly the sort of dumb-clever name I’d give a discovery.
Love when people try to defend Platner by being like “look no he’s just a normal veteran and all normal veterans are colossal dipshits anyway he deserves to be in the United States senate.”
