I really do not think people understand that the *explicit theory of victory* as openly articulated by the United States government is that we are just going to remain on a wartime footing in the Persian Gulf and Levant for the foreseeable future.

Energy market so bad we're going to need to rediscover fire.

Congress can throw him out of office anytime they want

I don’t know that I have a definite funniest but I really think about this one all the time

you, a fool: it's impossible to qualify who has the "best" life, due to the immense complexity of-- me, grabbing the mic: the bear from the bear baiting scene on Game of Thrones demanded frying pans full of whipped cream between every take, and everyone had to applaud him while he ate

Oh wow, the photos already released from NASA for the launch of Artemis II from the NASA HQ flickr.

Men of the 11th MEU, if you don't want to die in Iran, you have three weeks to explain to your officers that they are following illegal orders in a suicidal mission.

Friends don’t help friends do murder-suicides in the grip of a psychotic episode, which is simply what is happening on a mass scale in the US AND Israel. Whoever comes out first needs to help the other get back in touch with reality too.

netanyahu, his war cabinet, and the general staff of the IDF have committed crimes against humanity and need to die at the end of a rope.

ahhhh looks like the old Pretend To Be A Famous 193-Year-Old Tortoise's Veterinarian And Say He Died And Then Solicit Crypto Donations Through Social Media scam i've seen it a million times

outlets that ran obvious hoax from nazi child porn site: BBC/Newsweek/MSN/Yahoo USA Today & all Gannett papers (Detroit FP; Ind Star; Cin Enquirer; Cbus Dispatch; FL Times-U; Tennessean; AZ Republic; Milwaukee J-S) All Tegna-owned stations (WUSA, KPNX, KUSA, WXIA, KARE, WTLV, KSDK, WKYC, WTSP)

Not great the amount of news organizations that appear to do basically no confirmation on their own before sharing out a story based on a tweet from the Nazi site!

One of the stupidest and most subtly disastrous culture war battles we lost to the right was that caring about nature is pussy shit and the only respectable way to engage with the earth is to extract from it

“Hey! Mr. 193 year old tortoise! Jonathan!”

the goal of politics should be giving NASA and CSA 5-10% of the budget from taxing the rich

NASA is honestly one of the greatest things humans have ever created, the stuff of math and dreams

Awe and wonder at the vastness and mystery of the universe is one of the holiest human experiences and I think it's fine for governments to expend a lot of resources to provide that experience

we should do more imo

to the moon.

My heart goes out to all the brave astronauts who will die someday regardless of what is or is not accomplished this evening

this is entirely in line with Israeli support of Hamas over the PA

“My solution to the bad officers is that all the good officers should quit and let the bad officers remain in charge and allegiant to the cult leader” is not the brilliant idea a lot of you think it is.

SLS, NASA's Moon rocket 🌙🚀

And regardless of what he says, doesn't say, does, and doesn't do, Iran will still be in control of the Strait tomorrow, the next day, the next week, the next month, and in all likelihood the next year.

An agreement is impossible under such circumstances and this is one of the major reasons there'll be no "end" to the war even if Trump cuts bait.

And by extension, it also indicts the United States which time after time abets this behavior. The only reasonable conclusion you can make is that the US cannot be trusted to keep its word under any scenario because it will allow Israel to breach any agreement for any reason.

This, alongside the assassination attempt of Hamas negotiators in Doha, on the sovereign soil of a neutral country which was given the explicit role of meditation, demonstrates Israel's basic non-compliance with the most fundamental norms of international relations.

Israel is going to keep pushing until we yank the leash

This is a defeat in a war we started! For no reason! Defeat doesn't even come close to describing this abject, abominable failure that has resulted in a ton of death and made the world a significantly worse place.

so we're just going to get a complete cut-and-run and leave the global oil market in abject chaos. catastrophic defeat for the united states www.politico.com/news/2026/04...

Seriously this is an insane idea. Fly troops into Iran, build an airfield near natanz, fly cargo planes with bucket trucks, dig out the the plant we bombed, Acquire HEU, leave, all while taking fire from the IRGC, Artesh, and basiji?????

good post

every queer friend group has at least one of each

They also conveniently gloss over the fact (which anyone actually doing work in the space is painfully aware of) that Israel is actively spying on the USG 24/7 and routinely sells our secrets to our geopolitical adversaries

also israel is an overt and open enemy of american democracy
