Found an AI perspective I’d never heard before from a teacher of teens. It’s a bit meandering but your three minutes will be well used.

This is a good day to reach out to someone who is struggling. Your life is not too busy to say a kind word to a friend or just listen to them for a while.

@PossumDeMenthe @FreyaLee5806 @Qveen_Potato It happens a lot. When Missouri was considering a ban doctors testified that patients needed them at the age and are routinely prescribed them at that age.

Tim Dillon: “The people cheering on this war in Iran have no fucking clue why we’re there.” “20 years after Iraq, everyone in this country has less money on average.” “And the same people that cheered that on are cheering this on.” “They have no morals.” “They’re a black hole.” “You say, maybe they have bad morals.” “No, no, no.” “They have no morals.” “People do not own homes.” “People do not have healthcare.” “People are in no better positioned financially than they were except the top tier.” “The people that cheered this on from their backyard in Long Island without a goddamn thought as to why we were doing it—it just felt good to them.” “It was a way to own the libs, by sending troops into a Middle Eastern country.” “These people are all hopped up on pharmaceuticals and French vanilla coffee creamer, and they have a bloodlust that is insatiable.” “The suburban American has a bloodlust that is absolutely insatiable.” “We’re becoming a sexless country.” “We’re a joyless country.” “Our only joy is in exporting violence and sitting back and watching it.” “They don’t care that we bombed a school of Iranian children.” “They don’t care because many parts of this country are a moral black hole.” @TimJDillon

Trump just said this: “I knew the Strait would be a weapon. I predicted it a long time ago. I predicted all of this stuff. I predicted Osama bin Laden would knock out the World Trade Center. I wrote it in a book.” Five minutes ago he said his administration was “shocked” that Iran struck Qatar, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Bahrain, and Kuwait. Nobody expected that. Now he predicted all of it. In the same press conference. This is the man managing the most severe geopolitical crisis since 2003. He predicted Osama bin Laden. He was shocked by Iran. He declared victory 5 times in 13 seconds. He said you could say both when asked if the war was beginning or ending. He said Tomahawks are very generic. He said Iran bombed its own school. $21 billion spent. 14 Americans dead. Oil at $102. Zero allied warships. Taiwan surrounded. The Strait mined. He predicted all of it. He was shocked by all of it. Both. Never stop connecting the dots.

You can price anything in any currency on a computer screen and settle into another currency without ever having either currency in a vault. The days of which currency is being used are over. For the dollar and the yuan. Digital currency changes all of it.

Goldman Sachs confirms Hormuz oil flows have collapsed from 19.5 million barrels per day to 0.5 million. Net disruption after pipeline rerouting: 17.2 million barrels per day offline. Two independent vessel trackers recorded zero oil tankers crossing the Strait on 12 March. The largest energy chokepoint on Earth is not closed by a navy. It is closed by a spreadsheet. Seven major P&I clubs cancelled war-risk coverage for the Persian Gulf effective 5th March under Solvency II protocols. Premiums for remaining voyage cover surged 300 to 1,000%, reaching 1% of hull value: $2 to $3 million per VLCC on a seven-day renewable basis. The $20 billion DFC reinsurance facility backed by Chubb has limited uptake because it excludes full P&I liability. Lloyd’s still offers single-voyage cover. Nobody is buying because the premium assumes the mines, and the mines are on the seabed. The Strait is open. The insurance is not. And without insurance, no vessel moves. While 19 million barrels per day sit stranded on either side of the chokepoint, one category of vessel continues transiting: Chinese shadow fleet tankers carrying Iranian crude settled in yuan through CIPS. Kpler confirms 11.7 to 16.5 million barrels have reached China since 28 February. These tankers do not carry Western insurance. They do not need Western insurance. They operate under Chinese state-backed coverage, Iranian IRGC safe passage, and yuan settlement through a payment system that processed $24.5 trillion in 2025 at 43% year-on-year growth. The only oil moving through Hormuz is oil that does not touch the dollar. This is the moment the petrodollar system was designed to prevent. In 1974, Saudi Arabia agreed to price oil exclusively in dollars in exchange for American military protection. That agreement created a world where every barrel required dollars, every central bank held dollar reserves because energy demanded them, and American financial hegemony rested on the simple proposition that oil equals dollars. For fifty-two years, the equation held. The 2026 war is breaking it not through policy but through physics: the insurance architecture that enabled dollar-denominated oil transit has collapsed, and the only transit still functioning operates in yuan. The dollar’s share of global reserves has fallen from 71% in 2000 to 59% today. Yuan global payments remain at 2.89%. No single event kills the petrodollar. But the Goldman data reveals what the contrarians miss: the war has created a live demonstration of a post-dollar energy system operating at scale. Chinese tankers transit. Yuan settles. CIPS clears. Iranian oil reaches Chinese refineries at $9 to $12 below Brent while Western buyers pay $96.72. The system works. It is working now. And every day the Strait remains closed to dollar shipping is another day the alternative proves it does not need the original. President Trump’s multinational warship call is the response: send navies, reopen the Strait, restore dollar-denominated traffic, and kill the yuan alternative before it scales. If the coalition succeeds, dollar pricing survives. If it fails or fragments, the war that was launched to destroy Iran’s nuclear programme will have accidentally created the conditions for the multipolar energy order the dollar was designed to prevent. The IEA has released 400 million barrels of strategic reserves, the largest coordinated draw in history. It covers 23 days of the 17.2 million barrel daily shortfall. The war is sixteen days old. The reserves are finite. The insurance cancellations are not. Nineteen million barrels per day reduced to half a million. Zero tankers on 12th March. Yuan tankers the only vessels moving. And the fifty-two-year-old system that priced every barrel in dollars is watching its replacement operate in real time through the waterway it can no longer transit.

I’m going to give you the medical findings according to the testimony of the Israeli doctors who treated this man, including Israeli Dr. Yoel Donchin, an anesthesiologist at Sde Teiman and Hadassah University Hospital who treated him at both places. This is going to be very difficult to read. I encourage you to scroll ahead if you have a weak stomach. Medical findings included: - Ruptured bowel (or tear in the lower bowel/rectum) - Severe anal/rectal injuries (a cut/tear several centimeters inside the rectum, consistent with insertion of an object) - Punctured lung - Broken ribs - Blunt trauma to the abdomen and chest -He required emergency surgery. -A large round and pointed object was inserted into his rectum causing the bowel tear. -there was blood in his underwear. You can see it soaking through as this animals force him to walk, hunched over immediately following their gruesome sexual assault. The testimonies of serious sexual abuse were corroborated and the video was aired on Israeli channel 12 news. These soldiers had their charges dropped today. Now I know I’m gonna lose followers because of AnTiSeMiTiSm and I know it will be whataboutisms in the comments and I don’t really give a fuck. I’m consistent. We all know what we’re seeing here. Don’t play dumb. Don’t tell me “he did it to himself.” No. Fucck that and fucck you. I consistently denounce all sexual assault. -yes from the Islamics -yes from the Americans -yes from the Israelis. -yes from everyone on the Epstein list. Our world is sick and it’s possessed by something not of God. Pray.
