Again, leaders of other countries don’t talk this way. The glee with which our current leaders talk about killing people is not normal, and nor is their lack of concern for who exactly we’re killing. American bombs incinerated 100 kids in Minab. Were those the β€œright people”?

it just feels so horrible
we feel powerless
we've tried fighting, 
we've tried surrendering
we've tried ignoring
we've tried building
israel doesn't let you exist
that's it, our choice is fast death 
or faster death

From a friend in Beirut this morning, who in the last few days has seen several Israel missile strikes within walking distance of their home.

Look at the smile on his face. He's talking about Iranian children. That's the enemy. If he's allowed to walk amongst the people a free man when this is all over then we are hopeless as a country. We will never be a true democracy if nothing happens to them.

This is even dumber and more arrogant than "Iraq will greet us as liberators"

They protested a President who claimed to care about human rights while enabling a genocide. They were pressuring him to align his stated values and his actions. Trump doesn’t even pretend to care about human rights or hypocrisy. Protesting him is a less effective use of energy and resources.

Holding the World Cup or Olympics in a nation where Trump is president would be a global failure.

there is a child-like naivety to the way business leaders approach sociopolitical problems that would be really sweet if it wasn't coming from the leader of a company with 30,000 employees and 3 billion dollars in revenue

It's amazing how utterly dumb the DOGE bros are and how little they let their total lack of intelligence, accomplishment and talent get in the way of breaking things that actually intelligent, accomplished and talented people had built.

Search result for Brian McGinnis, the Marine whose arm was broken by Sen. Sheehy, yields "No articles or videos have been found."

It's pretty amazing how Senator Tim Sheehy (R-MT) breaking a Marine's arm while the Marine was protesting (ironically what he gets paid to defend) barely registers.

The NYT and WaPo each had a write up, though no follow yet. The WSJ has nothing.

Imagine a Dem Senator in this situation...

If the Dems who win in the 2026 midterms get squeamish about prosecuting this administration, we'll need to elect a bunch of new people running on Nuremberg shit for 2028. This isn't a joke. It's the law. It's justice. Biden let Trump back in the WH and this happened because Joe didn't do his job

I just don’t understand why Democratic leaders refuse to take the easy win on this. This war is deeply unpopular. Opposing it should be a no-brainer.

This repeats yet another pattern from the Iraq War. When the Iraqis did not behave as the Americans wanted β€” without the deference and gratitude that a foreign military occupier felt it was due β€” they became targets.

Thanks to my sleep resistant child I have now seen my cell phone clock fall back and spring forward at the exact moment that it happened.

Seeing ppl circulate projects whose NEH grants were canceled by DOGE reaffirms my argument about AI as a permission structure. Some grants were canceled w/o a β€œno” from the generated summary. DOGE had a mandate to slash humanities funding & AI gave them the veneer of a rationale for their actions.

Iran’s people were facing a horrible shortage of water before the war began. If we are destroying desalination plants and setting fire to Teheran we are committing unfathomable crimes.

This is no different from Putin saying MH17 was shot down by Ukraine or Assad saying rebels gassed themselves.

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.

there's so much bad in the world but there's also people who lift up and carry an elderly bat around every day so he can pretend he's flying again, and that's the part of the world I think is worth fighting for
