😂 For all the American immigrants in Mexico?!?

U.S. Military Fat Camp. Or just get on a GLP1.

Someone asked about possibly cruising (sailing) China - apparently unaware of insane marine traffic, not to mention paperwork & expense nightmare. Some places never make it onto my sailing bucket list & China is one of them.

Blood red authoritarian states. I view them the same as the world’s worst countries & feel such sympathy for the people born, raised & stuck there - like those who are trapped in South Sudan.

American Death Squads continue killing sprees unabated, with impunity.

RIP, Dinosaur Man. 🦕 You gave my now-grown son much joy with Jurassic Park.

Lindsey Graham is dead!!

Necessity is the mother of all creativity. I'd probably fashion some kind of sailing land yacht with skateboards or some shit to get around. Definitely would make use of wind & solar.

😬 A senior advisor to the Leader of the Islamic Revolution has warned that the Axis of Resistance is "ready to pull the trigger" to "cleanse" the region of American forces, following US strikes on southern Iran and Trump's remarks that the US-Iran memorandum of understanding (MoU) is "over."

Yeeting back to the 1800s with 1st class, 2nd class & the horrific 3rd class.

Philippines VP faces impeachment trial Charges: Misuse of confidential funds, amassing unexplained wealth, alleged bribery & intent to kill president & his family. Guilty verdict would bar Duterte from public office & derail her 2028 presidential bid. She's currently the frontrunner.

<Sigh> If Hoi An, Vietnam, was hidden, it's not anymore.

Looks like it's back on. DT at 11 p.m. Everyone's gotta be re-screened to enter. What a clusterfuck.

AP Livestream of evacuated National Mall. 😂😂

50 years later, it’s illegal to even get a glance of reflection.

17 crew on the Palau-flagged tanker Honour 25 have been held captive for more than two months.

It’s alarming to see so many people aged 25-54 giving up. "It was shocking to see 720,000 people stop looking for work entirely and the hospitality sector shed jobs.”

Staying on brand.

Imagine that?! Labor force has the opportunity to do something funny.

California does so much heavy lifting for the entire country.

As so many have been dealing with unbearable heat domes, I'm reposting this from March 2025. The financial world most definitely believes in climate science. Invest in air conditioning stocks.

How quaint. Now, a global thermonuclear war would send the Dow soaring to 200,0000.

"Three people, including a teenager, were wounded Monday in an explosion at a residential building in Monaco. A source close to the investigations who asked not to be named told AFP that one of those wounded was a Ukrainian oligarch, Vadym Yermolaiev."

The reclaiming and rechecking of bags at U.S. customs always has been a nuisance.

It's the Day of the Seafarer 2026 Carrying World Trade, Carrying the Risks This year, the realities of those risks are underscored by the ongoing effort to evacuate some 11,000 seafarers trapped aboard ship by the Strait of Hormuz situation that now has been paused.

Tasty WMDs.

IMO halts Persian Gulf evacuations

Just passing this along. I, too, had gotten a 3-day Bluesky suspension over similar sentiment. It is what it is, and we all know it.

Regarding the sentencing of Prairieland ICE protesters to 50+ years in prison.

Insurance industry begins feelin' it. Centene is offering voluntary buyouts to most of its roughly 61,000 employees due to no one being able to afford non-subsidized ACA & the gutting of Medicaid, with Medicaid being its largest market. Dominoes starting to fall.

Make billions by being a raging American bigot. It's the easiest & quickest way to become a trillionaire in the United States.

Large-scale evacuation of more than 11,000 seafarers from 500-600 commercial ships stranded in the Persian Gulf officially is underway IMO: "We have secured the necessary safety guarantees and have thoroughly verified the conditions for safe navigation to support these operations.”

Environmental risks to match each environmental upside. I love the oceans, and I hate the thought of millions of these things floating all around. What are we doing, humanity?

Colombians will deeply regret this. 😢

What's the new saying? Have all your kids by age 10 so you can be a retired empty nester by age 30.

😂

Iran has again closed the Strait of Hormuz amid renewed Israel-Hezbollah clashes, threatening the fragile U.S.-Iran interim peace deal.

Imagine that?! Lackland AFB issues flu vaccine mandate

One-third of American adults under 35 live with parents.

What a relief for some 20,000 stranded seafarers. Hope this holds so all can return home.

Trump administration walks back plan to cut ocean observation NSF said “effective immediately” it will not proceed with further removal of the remaining sensor arrays and will develop plans to redeploy the equipment it already removed after servicing.

Israel won't stop genociding for anything or anyone.

Oh my gosh, did I ever need to hear Michelle Obama's speech today.

Remembering election night 2008. Such much joy.

Part of the reason intelligent people are so worried about how tomorrow’s tech will be used is that our government is using today’s tech to blow up school kids. www.theguardian.com/global-devel...

Musk is a weapon of mass destruction.

My God, this thread:

Content creators & influencers beware of the U.S. regime.

Looks like Kansas City, Mo., was expecting to round up masses of people during the World Cup. So, the city spent $25 million for a temporary World Cup jail while it builds a $151 million detention facility slated for the same location. Unbelievable.
