The FBI thinks you are fucking stupid. Iran has zero capability to cross the Pacific and sea-launch a drone attack on California. This is too fucking dumb for me to comment on further.

Drawings by Cuban-born Chinese American artist Ching Ho Cheng, 1960s-70s, known for his metaphysical compositions. He moved within avant-garde artist communities in downtown NYC, until his death at 42 of HIV-related illness.

I'm suing Grammarly over its paid AI feature that presented editing suggestions as if they came from me - and many other writers and journalists - without consent. State law requires consent before someone's name can be used for commercial purposes. www.wired.com/story/gramma...

Karl Weick (organizational psychologist, foundational work on sensemaking) had a great refrain: “How can I know what I think until I see what I say?” I often think about this in relation to how AI can interfere w/ thinking by substituting its words for ours. This experimental study offers evidence.

“FIFA Peace Prize Winner Destroys Tournament”. I’m mad for Cape Verde and Haiti.

Israel warns Lebanese government: Take action against Hezbollah or we'll bomb Lebanon's national infrastructure (KAN News)

this is going to be a disaster

Leaked documents show the US Border Patrol being remade in the image of Gregory Bovino. Example: last November "guidance was issued across the Border Patrol to clarify how to smash suspects’ car windows and extract them from vehicles while minimizing legal liability." prospect.org/2026/03/11/b...

Worthwhile analysis about the view of the Iran War from the Israeli perspective (it differs from what the US public usually hears):

Kenneth Starr, who died in 2022, “appears to have been Epstein’s most substantive evangelical relationship. He represented Epstein in the 2000s, defending him against rape and sex trafficking charges in Florida. He helped Epstein get a plea deal that kept him out of prison.”

Saw a Red Fox on the walk home this evening. Didn’t have my camera, so here is another March fox from a couple of years ago - trotting and then stopping for some scritching 🌿

I hate that people we're supposed to communicate with on a personal basis have been made so fucking illiterate by trite transactional phrases. I had a friend tell me today that my sharing some difficult feelings was "not a deal breaker." WT ever loving F am I supposed to do with that?

Trump, Hegseth, Wright & Republicans are 💯 Full of shit, again. The Navy said last Monday they don't not have the ships for escorts. Trump promptly promised escorts for all on Tuesday. The incompetence & lies are snowballing on Trump

🚨👀 As Trump/Hegseth angles for billions more to bomb Iran, they are spending: - $6.9 million on 🦞 tail - $15.1 million on 🥩 (in one month) - $2 million for Alaskan king 🦀 & millions more (while cutting benefits for poor all across the country)

Maybe two of these moist establishment Democrats in Colorado, John Hickenlooper and Michael Bennet (who are both running for office, unlike Polis) should lean hard on Polis, since pardoning Peters will damage the Democratic brand in the state… 🤔

This is the most blasé admission of a war crime by a US president in history. Trump has just disclosed, without prompting, that the US Military committed a war crime - literally just to brag & make his Republican audience laugh about unnecessarily killing 100+ Iranians instead of capturing them.

People are dead.

not now earthquake

It's just one story, one illustration of all the terrible things that have happened. It's been a week since the very great noise/drone artist Siavash Amini posted this, from where he lives Tehran. There has been no update since. It could be for any number of reasons. We just don't know.

Indeed, assuming this represents current policy, it is an open admission that the regime change effort has failed, de-nuclearization is likewise impossible or impractical and the only objective that remains is to extricate from a costly failure.

The market will not solve the climate crisis. More and more people are saying it. I'm seeing another white paper today, saying it. A question is what will: democratic institutions? corporate authoritarians? no one?

"While Trump and others in the GOP seem most concerned about Noem’s many other scandals... Noem is leaving a trail of death and constitutional destruction behind her." truthout.org/articles/kri...

When the talking point is too hard to remember right

This raises the obvious question of what kind of thing the Trump admin might need the National Transportation Safety Board to do that a conscientious Board member would reject.

I had a visitor that left something in my yard.

These poor kids. This family did nothing wrong except believe in the United States.

maybe I'm focusing on the wrong thing here but this is the wildest shit I've ever heard a white South African say and I study racism for a living

after a press conference outside the broadview ice jail, protesters are marching down 25th avenue and have temporarily blocked traffic

we always have to fund the wars or else we don't support the troops so what does that imply when we don't fund schools or healthcare

This is what ecocide looks like.

They're going to poison a city with 17 million people

Also this is so telling because kids don’t need therapy due to being exposed to difference. They need therapy because their parents are hateful, narrow minded, insecure bigots lol

If you are saying that the people running ICE prisons are fascist, I have news for you about how the whole punishment system works in this country.

“Israel depends on desalination plants for 80% of its drinkable water. “About 90% of Kuwait’s water needs are met by desalination. “Bahrain, where the drone strike occurred, is almost completely dependent on such plants for its population of 1.6 million.” www.wsj.com/livecoverage...

I would point out that attacking civilian water supply is a war crime, but we've spent the past 20 years pretending that poisoning wells and cutting off water to civilian populations is not a war crime, so I don't believe that we will start paying attention to that now. 🤷🏿‍♂️

🧙🏿‍♂️🔮 Prediction that only I, Blackstradamus, am wise and learned enough to see!* Iran can't defend its desalination plants! Other nations can't defend their desalination plants! Mutually assured thirst! Cities don't work without water! Refugee crisis! (*Im not special. Literally everyone sees this).

just for reference Tehran metro area has 3 times the population of Ireland. roughly a third that of France. almost two new york cities

Trump doesn't like hearing people say, "when this is over...". He's determined to make sure the world never gets over his presidency. Putin and Netanyahu are his idols.

This is Tejano star and Latin Grammy winner, Bobby Pulido, our Dem nominee for TX15 🪅, speaking out against the ICE horrors that have befallen these mariachi students, and the hypocrisy of MAGA Rep. Monica De La Cruz. Thank you, Bobby and Rep. Castro, for bringing attention to these kids.

This is exactly the model we were trying to offer Chicago when, instead, they let the Obamas clearcut 19.3 acres of Jackson park and build on a wetland.

I do not think the US is the sole force for evil in the world. I do think that currently the US regime embodies a combination of power and malevolence rarely seen on earth.

Dictators abroad target independent press to terrorize journalists & chill the public. Trump does the same thing targeting vocal & vulnerable voices here. Thanks @the-independent.com for featuring my condemnation of ICE detaining Rodriguez: www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

put trees everywhere I am no longer asking

Tbh I do want to go to there quite badly lol I want to go to where they've been doing stuff so good for so long that now that European cities like Copenhagen are finally doing some of that stuff too

Trump is the only major US politician (much less only POTUS) to continually spout off about WWIII. He does so purely as a matter of vibe projection. There's never even a low-energy attempt to make sense of who it would be with or how it would come about. It's CLEARLY his own annihilation fantasy.

So according to the WSJ a US Senator conspired with another country to manipulate the US into starting a war, am I getting this right
