U.S. May Have Committed War Crime In Sinking Of Iranian Ship The Geneva Conventions say nations have a duty to “take all possible measures” to help rescue victims of shipwrecks. A U.S. submarine left that to Sri Lanka.

“The 312-foot Dena and its 130-member crew, many of them musicians in the Iranian navy band, had just finished participating in an Indian government naval exercise and cultural exchange that the U.S. Navy had also participated in and were on the way home on Wednesday.”

This is a beautiful portrait from the inimitable @ricksteves.bsky.social of the people who are suffering in Iran, both under its theocracy and from our nation's warmongering.

Markwayne is actually a noble title, and is the Oklahoma equivalent to "Marquis," and may be passed on at the same time your father gives you his car dealership

Hamsterdam.

FIFA is using the hydration breaks to bring commercials to the World Cup games. Infantino is so damn shameless and money-hungry.

Dyson Daniels is playing very, very well this season, even amid 3PT ugliness.

- Remains an elite defender

- Best on-off splits on the Hawks

- 1 of 6 NBA players averaging at least 6.6 rebounds and 6.1 assists

- 56.6% on twos, only trailing Shai, Steph, Mitchell, Luka among qualified guards

How many billions of dollars in productivity does our nation lose every month to text-only ai spam emails?

Any company or individual engaging in this type of marketing is imposing colossal negative externalities on every professional with an email.

More succinctly, they are huge fucking dickheads.

When we talk about Baby Boomers not getting off the stage: In 1997, the US president was born in 1946.

In 2007, the US president was born in 1946.

In 2017, the US president was born in 1946.

And next year in 2027? The US president will have been born in 1946.

Breaking: Arkansas Democrats just flipped a Republican seat It's the ninth red-to-blue pickup in a special election in Trump's second term

JUST IN: Democrat Alex Holladay has flipped a GOP-held seat in *Arkansas*.

Republican Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders tried hard to delay this race and wanted the seat to stay vacant for 8+ months, but the courts told her to hold it today. If she was worried, she was right to be.

With Dallas early vote now in, Crockett's path to victory looks gone. She needed 80%+ of the vote there to make up for Talarico running up margins in Austin, San Antonio, and the rural + western counties. Only got 60%.
