@TETRAHELI0S moles are predators though! dedicated insectivores!

This is the logic of genocidaires. If universities are training grounds for IRGC talent, then hospitals are where they seek care, shops are where they buy groceries, desalination plants are where they get water from, and any Iranian child is a potential host body for the IRGC.

@TETRAHELI0S ...ferrets do all of those, though

these beautiful creatures are worth infinitely more than some millionaire's third vacation home

writing an e-mail and getting a prompt from AI "this sentence could be more concise" no. i am verbose. i am loquacious. i am long-winded and often redundant even. you machine, do not tell me how to form my words

wow these people really are intent on destroying everything I’ve ever loved

fraud publication

it’s like waking up and being kicked in the head by a horse every day

US troops in hotels isn't using "human shields," etc. I get it: whatever the US does is ipso facto legitimate; whatever its enemies does is the opposite. such is power. but the simultaneous posturing about unshackling the military, ending woke pieties, war is hell, c'mon now

hegseth pledged "no quarter." earlier this year a US sub sank a boat of iranians coming back from a fleet regatta. those we didn't kill we abandoned to drown. this week the iranians shot down and captured US pilots who were bombing them and it's being called a "hostage taking."

An under-appreciated but defining characteristic of Trump is that whereas other presidents were simply sellouts to the oil and gas industry, he actually hates nature. He despises its beauty and wants to see it destroyed. The existence of sacred landscapes offends his ego.

The last time there was this much carbon in the atmosphere, temperate forests covered Antarctica and crocodiles swam around the North Pole. (Now watch how this post summons the climate denial bots working to convince you that there’s no scientific consensus on these things.)

Fairy tales to comfort affluent libs. In reality, the Iran-Contra cabal returned to power in the judicial coup of 2001 and has run American foreign policy as a joint US-Israeli black op ever since. War on Iran was inevitable but destroying Libya, Syria, Ukraine, & Gaza came first

“Someone decided to compress the kill chain. Someone decided that deliberation was latency. Someone decided to build a system that produces 1,000 targeting decisions an hour and call them high-quality. Calling it an “AI problem” gives those decisions and people a place to hide.”

It’s wild that the NYT, who is partially responsible for the death of expertise and intellectualism in this country, is so flabbergasted that their reporters know nothing.

One of the most vile and absurd things that has ever occurred in human history. You would have thought that the cost (literally millions of corpses) and the outcome (a resounding US defeat) would have reduction ad absurdum’ed wars form the sky but no.

Let's get @mcmansionhell's piece on Iranian architecture recirculating again.

Tough, but check this one out
