It's getting ugly again.

Watching MS NOW on the weekend reminds me of watching TYT like 15 years ago. Same video quality.

My dad at dinner: "my life is somewhat diminished by the fact I now know who Nick Fuentes is..."

This is how the New York Times is now choosing to celebrate the kick off pride month. Fuckin cunts.

Bragging about getting 70 ships through the SoH in 3 weeks when that is half of one normal day before the war...

Ukraine's Rocket Drones Aim To Blow Up Entire Russian Fuel Trains

I mean if he wants to self-own about the inflation...

Sounds familiar.

Is he mad? He sounds mad.

With your morning coffee.

😂🤪

The next outbound wave taking flight. t.me/drnbmbr suggesting about 200 drones, though that number is speculative.

Reports of an explosion heard around Boston are believed to be a significant bolide/meteor entering the atmosphere, a very large flash was detected by GOES-19 satellite that does not correlate with active thunderstorms. https://t.co/MSDGX6ZnMA

Iran may have used Chinese missile to shoot down U.S. fighter jet, sources say nbcnews.to/4u3ol96

Most of us on the left, especially the nerdier sorts on Bluesky, probably experienced being called by anti-gay slurs, even if we aren't gay. That's all that's happening here. Gay isn't as stigmatized, so "trans" is their new word to police everyone, regardless of gender identity.

When I cover trans rights, either in writing or video, it gets low traffic. A lot of cis people on the left fall into the "yeah, yeah, you deserve rights, but I'm sick of hearing about it. Can we just shut up about it, please?" camp. But it's MAGA that won't let this go away. And it affects YOU.

APNewsAlert: WASHINGTON (AP) — US military disables another commercial ship trying to head to an Iranian port in breach of blockade, AP source says.

An Iranian ballistic missile strike on a Kuwaiti air base within the past 24 hours caused minor injuries to several Americans and seriously damaged two MQ-9 Reaper strike drones www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

This is why they are freaking out about Kyiv. Because they can't stop the carnage going on in the south.

Observations on the Taganrog attack. Stored Tu-142MR destroyed. Second stored Tu-142(MK variant?) attacked, waiting on more info for results. Note opened and exposed wing surfaces indicating work needed for flight worthiness.

Mine dropping equipment from downed Ukrainian long-range drones. Used for mining the R-280 highway that Russia uses as a supply route. The one holds 48 mines and it mounted on an FP-2. The other holds 10 mines and is used on large bomber drones like the Vampire. mines weigh .4-.5 g

💥 Explosions reported in Crimea, with an oil depot in Feodosia supposedly hit among other locations.

More.

No fuel for you.

What a shitshow.

Well.

Big salvo, outbound.

I have far too few quiet evenings in a quiet place to myself listening to soft jazz and sipping red. Most evenings, everything is on fire.

Seattle waterfront, check this out!

It's a delete 2 hours worth of data day. Fortunately, get paid by the hour on this project. 🤷🏻‍♀️

So that's why they are going nuts.

Hey, internet's back in Iran! Via @netblocks.org

This is actually a really pretty picture. Shame they had to go put a Pantsir tower there.

As soon as we put the stint in your clogged aorta, your heart will pump blood like it's never pumped before.

Fresh tanker explosion.

If I ever feel overwhelmed or burdened with a large amount of uncertainty at the end of a long day, I'll think of this song (or the whole album, for that matter). It reminds me of family trips to California when I was young. Dunno why it helps, but I guess that's not how this works.

The look of the guy I'm having outdoor breakfast with when I correctly identify an A-26 Invader passing overhead based on the engine noise

That's crazy!

Not great.

I ain't reading all that I'm happy for you tho Or sorry that happened

Interesting formation out of China. I have more reason to believe these are bombers (H-6DU tankers?) out of Guiping/Mengshu AB as that is where the green (lower-level) flight datapoints originate around.

60 Minutes confirms Iran is bypassing the US blockade and exporting 100,000 more barrels of oil per day than before the war. Most of it is reportedly going to China.

As a survivor of nearly drowning when I was a child, I'm reposting this free article on the warning signs to look for in people who are in distress.

As dismal as yesterday was with all the bad deal news and the onslaught on Ukraine, if I'm joking around or seemingly in a more upbeat mood, it's that I can help with reporting and OSINT and all the other things I work on... but I can also help with morale. And I think people can use that energy. 💛
