Missing the Forest

I have made it very clear that I no longer support Trump and I’m very thankful to him for making it clear that I have nothing to do with him. The new Trump is a rotting husk of the old Trump. I hope 47 enjoys Mark Levine being his spirit animal..

It may be time to put Grandpa up in a home.

These are the Twitter/X accounts with the most engagement so far in 2026. I suppose I had some intuition for how bad it was, but jeez, this is what you get when the ecosystem is broken.

There is a reason people do not debate Flat Earthers or Moon landing deniers. It is not because the evidence is weak. It is because the conversation is rigged from the start. You can bring measurements, physics, engineering, independent tracking, international verification, and experiments they can do in their own backyard, and none of it matters. The moment the facts show up, they shout fake, edited, CGI, conspiracy, or “that’s just your belief.” You cannot debate someone who treats every piece of evidence as invalid by default. You cannot debate someone who demands proof and then rejects the proof the second it appears. You cannot debate someone who thinks their personal disbelief outranks measurable reality. A debate requires both sides to accept evidence. Flat Earth and Moon landing denial collapse the moment evidence enters the room, so the only move left is to deny the room exists. That is why people do not debate them. Not because the globe is fragile, but because the argument they bring is. You cannot have a real discussion with someone who decided ahead of time that nothing you show them will ever count.

‼️ Terms of Surrender Trump threatened civilizational destruction. Iran replied with Terms of Surrender. Trump says the Terms of Surrender are a good basis for negotiations. Iran announces US acceptance of the Terms of Surrender and promptly fires more missiles at Israel. WTI futures LOVE the Terms of Surrender. Iran remains the gatekeeper and toll booth of the Strait of Hormuz. The US continues to evacuate its Persian Gulf bases. This is what decisive strategic looks like.

This is heartbreaking to watch💔 Russia hit Odesa overnight with strike drones. Three people were killed. One of them was a two-year-old child. Sixteen more were injured, including a pregnant woman and children - the youngest not even a year old.

Despite no one believing his nonsense, Hungary's Russian-backed kleptocrat Victor Orban continues to double down on his fake emergency with hope of canceling election.
