Don't forget standing in front of the drawer the other needs to get into.
That should be in the marriage vows.
Wow. The age we live in. In times gone power plants or desalination plants would have been the first targets.
Now it's data centres.
a passage from an article by Hunter S. Thompson We are At War now, according to President Bush, and I take him at his word. He also says this War might last for "a very long time." Generals and military scholars will tell you that 8 or 10 years is actually not such a long time in the span of human history-which is no doubt true—but history also tells us that 10 years of martial law and a wartime economy are going to feel like a Lifetime to people who are in their twenties today. The poor bastards of what will forever be known as Generation Z are doomed to be the first generation of Americans who will grow up with a lower standard of living than their parents enjoyed. That is extremely heavy news, and it will take a while for it to sink in. The 22 babies born in New York City while the World Trade Center burned will never know what they missed. The last half of the 20th Century will seem like a wild party for rich kids, compared to what's coming now. The party's over, folks.
Hunter S. Thompson wrote this about a week after 9/11 and god he nailed it
Lol. Ludicrously specious take.
A grown man pretending that ICE agents are wearing masks for the same reason we were asking people to wear masks during a global pandemic.

Watching Spurs v Palace on TV with wife. Spurs get the first goal and then I say. "Right, now watch Spurs completely spurs this up."
They did not disappoint.
Next time someone asks you to sum up MAGA in 30 seconds or less, show them this clip of Andrew Tate explaining why he doesn't read books.
OpenAI and…the United States Military…are teaming up to notify YOU that your son has been KILLED IN ACTION. Click here to speak with your son via AI one last time
"you need to learn how to use gAI or you'll get left behind!"
counterpoint!
the absolute fastest way to render yourself unemployable is to build your skillset around a tool that does your thinking for you, that everyone has access to, and that one company can change or take away at any time
A US submarine sinking a lonely, dinky Iranian surface ship an ocean away from the theater of the main conflict—and 9000
miles from North America—makes it pretty clear the US is fighting a general war, without the declaration required by the Constitution. www.reuters.com/world/asia-p...
WELCH: Mr. Yoho is also the husband of your former spokesperson, Tricia McLaughlin?
NOEM: Yes
WELCH: So your former assistant and her husband are the ones that got the DHS no bid contract for $143m. Any dispute about that?
NOEM: No.
Screenshot of an X post by Adam Schwarz stating that Melania Trump is chairing a UN Security Council meeting while the U.S. holds the presidency of the council. Below is a video still showing Melania Trump seated at a conference table with a nameplate reading “PRESIDENT” and “UNITED STATES,” speaking into a microphone, with officials seated behind her.
I do not enjoy this timeline.
So, in launching a huge bombing campaign on Iran they apparently didn't plan for:
- Who takes over;
- Interceptor shortages from sustained drone retaliation;
- How to defend US bases in the region;
- Threats to ships in the Strait of Hormuz; and
- How to evacuate Americans with airspace closed.
If anyone is friends with any Georgian air traffic controllers, buy them a nice bottle of wine. As guardians of pretty much the only narrow gap still available between Europe and Asia that avoids both Iran, the Gulf, Ukraine and Russia, they are under some substantial pressure.
Trump: "I guess the worst case is we do this and then somebody takes over who is as bad as the previous person. That could happen."
They are literally running with “we have always been at war with Eurasia.” Unreal.
The peace president makes the case for forever wars
That FIFA "peace prize" looking a bit hasty now eh Infantino?
“We thought we were living in a politically neutral slave state.”
You can't analyse this stuff. It's the foreign policy equivalent of free jazz.
After mentioning four dead US servicemen Trump starts talking about his ballroom.
In a competitive field, this may be one of the most offensive things he has ever done.
These countries right next to Iran with US military bases in them?
Yeah, who'd a thunk it? 🙄
"The trade was not that you were getting exposed to geopolitics when moving to Dubai."
I find I am honestly unsure what the long term implications are of the United States demonstrating twice in three months that its new preferred way of war is to engage in bolt-from-the-blue decapitation strikes with no obvious follow-up plan.
My instinct is that it will not turn out well.
Immigrant reports from a hostile environment. All she wanted was to make a better life for herself.
Social media created this nonsense idea that not exposing yourself to hatred is isolationist. Choosing to not spend your free time with bigots isn’t living in a bubble. I don’t need to know what’s going on at X. I won’t be smarter or more knowledgeable or empathic by being there. Neither will you.
