is life just a series of days where you're tired in the afternoon and wide awake at night, running behind on weekly deadlines, and seeing pants get slim and big and then slim again over the years until you die?

okay, this is funny, though

I’m cheating, but whatever.

I wonder how Trump wants to send Hospital ship to Greenland, when both US hospital ships, "Mercy" and "Comfort" are undergoing long term maintenance procedures in Alabama and are not able to leave the docks....

German athlete did not have a toilet seat, so the Russian took whatever available.

Neither ships look like they are going anywhere.The president appears not to know where they are. They are both in dry dock in Alabama,Gulf of Mexico gcaptain.com/trump-announ...

How propaganda works: Denmark helped a US sailor, evacuating him from a submarine to a Greenland hospital. Rather than thanking the ally, Potus sends a hospital ship to Greenland, pretending a territory with 6 hospitals for fewer than 60,000 people is underserved www.theguardian.com/world/2026/f...

May I politely suggest that the gouvernor of Louisiana who so generously helped send this ship elsewhere direct it to Louisiana whose citizen / hospital ratio is roughly 3 times that of Greenland.

You’re asking the wrong question @economist.com, focusing on personalities instead of what russia is This isn’t “vladimir putin’s tyranny.” It is THE tyranny You cannot separate moscow from the prison of nations it governs A state spanning 11 time zones is incompatible with the absence of tyranny

Slava Ukraine! 🇺🇦💪🏼🇱🇺

According to the Times, this is why Trump posted about the Chagos Islands deal last night and reversed his support for the UK. An impressive moral stand by the UK👏 The Iraq war casts as damaging shadow over the UK Labour Party to this day. Starmer keen to avoid Blair‘s self-destruction. Article👇

We live in a bizarre world where longevity influencers tell millions to take rapamycin, sit in hyperbaric oxygen chambers, blast themselves with red light therapy, and take 50+ supplements daily. Meanwhile something that cuts dementia risk by 20% Is invisible. open.substack.com/pub/overmatt...

@gordondarroch.bsky.social ophef question: would Anas Sarwar misadventure qualify as British ophef of last week?

As you think about your summer holidays. Please put România on your list of options. About 3 hours flight away. Beautiful scenery. Amazingly warm sea. And VERY affordable. #visitRomania #DiscoverRomania #Romania

Hang on, I thought colonialism was supposed to be a good thing that brought civilisation and better living standards to primitive societies?

Russia could give up its nukes and get wonderful security guarantees instead. That's how it works, doesn't it?

Alors petit point : On nous demande - une camionnette avec 3 ou 5 places pour des volontaires de Kharkiv - du matériel de formation à la médecine de guerre (Mykolaiv) - un ecoflow - un skytracker On a vraiment pas fini de continuer ;))) #Ukraine

These Epstein files are so horrific that we could see Tehran carpet-bombed, Obama arrested and martial law declared in Minneapolis in the next few days.

@andrewmueller.bsky.social you have a maga vatnik in studio; and Trump is now calming down spirits -he is hailed as hero. Cf you ask wise man what to do about no space in house. Wise man has you add chicken and goats. You add, unbearable, back to wise man, he has you remove goats. Now you have space

Pam Bondi just sent a letter to Minnesota officials saying ICE will leave if the state turns over its voter database to Trump. Guess what? This has never been about safety or immigration. It’s a pretext for Trump to take over elections in swing states.

Was saying: it is exactly against this type of government that your founding fathers thought it wise for you to have an organised militia (not guns per se)
