Being the strongest isn’t easy…

My government has a real “we didn’t know starting a war would cause a war“ vibe going on which I realize I should be outraged about in the abstract but find myself mainly nonplussed by at this point.

rise and grind let's make some deals

Today, US & Israeli forces bombed the Gandhi Children’s Hospital in Iran’s capital of Tehran. Nurses supposedly risked their lives carrying newborns to safety from the rubble. I’m having trouble finding more reporting about this, but here is at least a blurb from Reuters:

Star Trek shot update! Some of the timing on the scrubber masks got f'd up, but I'll fix that in the next go round. Also, I feel like the lighting angle shifts a bit *too* much over the course of the shot. I'll tone that down. Enjoy, and suggestions are welcome!

i know that a new gorillaz album is only going to bore and dissapoint me so im just gonna listen to the 1 track with mark e smith on and call it a day

the world is going to shit so lets engage in our strongest coping strategy: getting into fights with ppl online

Okay I do not feel better about the world in the slightest 3 hours later.

It's really worth highlighting the history here Obama and Iran had a deal. Trump tore it up in 2018, reimposed sanctions and assassinated Soleimani Now, Iran had agreed to everything the US wanted in a new negotiation, and Trump bombed them anyway Why would any country ever trust the US again?

Remember...safety first!

hahahahaha

"if you quit things are hard" oh is that right. it's brave to kill kids if it would get you in trouble to refuse to do it, is that right. that's okay then. cheer the very brave soldiers, doing the most convenient thing for themselves even if it is evil

Environments in Baroque (saturn)....

television would be saved if they started doing this again

🚨 ISRAEL REIMPOSES TOTAL SIEGE ON GAZA Israel has closed all crossings into Gaza, including Rafah, “until further notice.” COGAT says humanitarian staff rotations are postponed, meaning no aid personnel can enter or leave. Israel falsely claimed: “The substantial quantities of food that have...

The people that allowed fascism to win was, to nobody's surprise, the side that felt supporting genocide had to be negotiable because it'd be bad for them if the genocide had to stop. If everyone had joined the red line against genocide, you might've had both. Now we have neither.

BREAKING: Evacuations underway at Dubai Airport following Iranian attack. - reports

Okay so let me get this straight, a oligarch country that elected a suspected pedophile & known rapist over his Christian values, and an illegally nuclear genocidal apartheid nation that keeps electing war criminals to do war crimes, those are the good guys because they bombed a primary girls school

Details of the UK's cowardly but predictable stance #Iran www.reuters.com/world/uk/uk-...

ahahah www.youtube.com/watch?v=erR5...

Fitting that in America’s final form, the epicenter of evil will be a private golf resort for wealthy pedophiles.

It feels like the United States has the most solipsistic culture imaginable, with a populace unable to parse global events through any lens other than how they are personally affected.

This statement is appallingly bad--like, the administration *illegally bombed a school.* It's mind-boggling to me for this to be the reaction from a human, much less a purported leader of the Democratic Party. I need a new senator stat

Classic stuff

85 schoolgirls. just one is a world, a future of infinite possibilities, a universe. that america has done this atrocity to 85 of them, that it will continue to do even worse... i don't even know what to say. i condemn this with every fiber of my being, but that doesn't feel like enough.

Landsman, a Democrat, receiving praise on X from the Israeli lobby, major donors.

It is clear now that the Omani foreign minister's sudden media blitz last night was an attempt to shame the United States by putting into the public record how readily Iran was prepared to reach a deal.

This is unacceptable from democratic leadership in Congress. They should be screaming NO WAR, not merely raising procedural objections. Cowardly, politically foolish failure to meet the moment.

Bro they killed a shitton of young girls

And now Schumer is out with his statement that... also does not condemn the attack in any way

BREAKING: Sounds of explosions have been heard in Bahrain, according to an Al Arabiya correspondent.

Qatar’s Defense Ministry is saying that an Iranian missile has been intercepted by the Patriot defense system.

BREAKING: Explosions heard in Kuwait. - Al Arabiya

BREAKING: Explosions heard in UAE's capital Abu Dhabi, according to CNN.

That last part is very important to understand. There is no scenario where a regime change war waged by the US leads to a democratic transition for Iran. It's either the same regime with minor changes in leadership and policy, or a power vacuum that leads to a civil war and long term instability.

israel says they’ve detected missiles launched from iran - per idf statement via nbc

what a crazy night for sam altman to be like "yeah we got that dept of war deal, and there's no moral concerns here"

If this was planned for months it means that the ongoing negotiations between the US and Iran were meaningless and that an illegal war started by the US was always going to be the outcome.

The US and Israel are bombing Iran. Anyone reporting it as “preventive” is engaging in propaganda, by definition. There is no interpretation of what’s happening as anything else than a crime. You don’t have to like the Iranian regime to understand why this is bad.

The precise relationship btw US imperial interests and Israeli territorial expansion and regional hegemony is often complex and then, sometimes it’s v clear

The U.S. is now attacking Iran.
