Hygge is my favorite. Baking, hiking, digging in the dirt, smart and compassionate friends, and living out my dream life in Maine. And also fighting for democracy and human rights.

The last photo of third-grader Mikaeil Mirdoraghi, waving to his mom before he left for school. He was killed shortly after in the U.S./Israeli strike on a primary school in Minab.

Yes. And we have to talk about this now, because talking about it is the first step to making it seem like a callous crime rather than a surprising emergency.

How long after a girls' school is bombed does the ICC need to declare it a war crime and seek justice?

AHRQ has been hit even harder than NIH. They have no grant making staff at all.

Hey Kegsbreath,

You can stop crowing about the killing of an Iranian submarine now. No wonder Spain wants nothing to do with us. And why wasn't our own Navy involved in the demonstration? This is a war crime I believe. Wow. Just Wow.

Trump’s War now providing a massive influx of cash for Iran’s ally Russia so they can continue to bomb civilians in Ukraine while we ask Ukraine for help against Iranian drones. Trump’s foreign policy in a nutshell.

I am so full of self-loathing right now. Because I'm an American.

This murderous regime is killing people -- including little girls -- in my name. It's destroying the lives of millions and millions of people. It's wrecking the globe.

I swear to god, it's all I can do not to cry every minute.

The principal function of Fox News, Newsmax and similar fringe right outlets is to teach Americans to hate their fellow Americans if their political views, skin color, religion, sexual orientation or ethnicity are different. That's having a strong effect.

There was a brief interlude about 10-15 years ago (likely the Kim Kardashian effect) when white girls were trying to get in on the curves thing. My daughter was made fun of for having no ass. But then that came undone and we're back to waiflike, "look like a young girl" expectations.

NEW: Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy says the United States has asked Ukraine for help intercepting Iranian-made Shahed drones, citing Ukraine’s battlefield expertise. Zelenskyy said any assistance will come only if it does not weaken Ukraine’s own defenses.

Good Lord.

Just watch how an elected member of the Senate conducts himself. Against a member of the military in uniform. Who - and let’s be very, very clear - most certainly has a First Amendment right to protest. Since he’s the guy you’d be sending to war.
