I’m frankly a bit surprised Trump fired Noem. It shows weakness and reminds people that accountability is possible.

6 PLAN vessels and 2 official ships operating around Taiwan were detected as of 6 a.m. (UTC+8) today.

linux heads were always right. time to sit my dumbass down and learn

As this drags on, it becomes increasingly difficult to envision an endgame that doesn’t involve U.S. ground forces entering Iran.

Looks like preparations to keep ground movements to a minimum once strikes occur. Doesn’t mean it’s imminent but likely happening soon.

Scott has indeed always been a lib. A race-sciencey lib who often misunderstands basic human motivation because he views everything through the lens of "logic," but like, he definitely endorsed Harris, he was never a chud.

stop being so unpleasant

seems like a good candidate!

glad more people are calling out the evil people at a16z

According to the report, internal deliberations are focused not on whether a strike would occur but on its scope and potential targets. Options under discussion include nuclear facilities, missile sites, state institutions and infrastructure, the officials said, according to Israel Hayom.

Senators should get more into quoting tweets that quote peepeepoopoo’s tweets @deepdishenjoyer.bsky.social

This is usually a key sign that hostilities are imminent, possibly in next 24-72 hours. We may not see the US make the Thursday meeting.

posting bangers is np hard since appreciating them is easy

twitter broke hey everyone

“Sometimes public service requires standing firm in the face of threats, which is what this unambiguously is” How did the banker dude get here before the leaders of every self-mythologizing media organization or even Congress

This is the sort of statement that was expected from every university president and law firm partner over the last year. That those statements weren’t made played a huge part in where we are now and people will remember.
