We wanted to know what will happen next in Iran. So we talked to three Joe Rogan fans at an Arby's in Harrisburg.

(Personally, I've never known the LoGH fandom to be terribly opinionated about ANYTHING... primarily because most of them are still halfway through the series, and can't find all the novels used...

But I guess I'd be wrong...)

You're thinking too mainstream (at least as far as '70s-'90s (inclusive) anime goes...)

HINT #2: It's not a mecha series, although it IS science fiction.

BREAKING: The US has bombed Tehran’s main refinery and burning oil is now flooding down the streets into the city’s sewers.

This is a vision from hell, unleashed by the US tonight.

A Facebook comment saying, [The] "Fandom is genuinely annoying though."

A Facebook comment saying, [The] "Fandom is genuinely annoying though."

A recent Facebook comment, talking about a SPECIFIC fandom.

Can YOU guess WHICH fandom?

(Hint, it was from a group about anime, '70s-'90s. That should narrow it down, right...?)

Dear Russia,

Iran's fire is making oil prices spike.

Spiking oil prices makes economic problems for us, so we're making it easier for you to sell more oil.

In sum, Iranian military success against us reduces economic pressure on you.

Just, you know, FYI.

Sincerely,
The geniuses leading America

CBS obtained video of the DHS killing of an unarmed man in Texas that DHS concealed for nearly a year, which clearly contradicts claims that he violently rammed anyone. He is shot with his brake lights on, car not moving or barely moving. Another DHS crime.

This appalling White House video game imagery on Iran illustrates what @teotten1.bsky.social and I discuss on today's pod: The role of fantasy, unreality and sadism-as-entertainment in MAGA politics.

Fetterman is basically a reactionary now: there is no real effort to explain why Mullin - a buffoon who spent the week insisting we are not at war with Iran - is qualified. Trump nominated Mullin, and that’s good enough for him.

Starting the LOTR reread. I really like Tolkien's intro being like

Section 1: On the history of the hobbits and the Shire and the kings of old and the fall of Numenor and synchronising calendars and the great weight of history

Section 2: Weed

A Jan. 6 rioter pardoned by Trump was sentenced to life in prison for child sex abuse Since receiving presidential pardons, dozens of former Capitol rioters have gotten into more legal trouble. In Florida, Andrew Paul Johnson was sentenced to life in prison for child sex abuse.

A Running Count of How Many People ICE Has Killed and Injured - The American Prospect ICE is not required to report any use-of-force incidents against the public. So The American Prospect created our own running tally.

We updated our record of people immigration agents have killed or caused to die since Trump took office in January 2025.

As of today, agents have killed at least 28 people in the field and 48 people in custody.
