@rabbitholebot Also the many "cultural institutions" that have turned against their own people and history. It's like our countries have been occupied by invisible enemies.

The most dangerous thing happening in the world today is Western governments turning against their own citizens. Nothing else comes close.

@gerardtbaker It's okay. We despise your leader also. We think he is a communist traitor who is destroying England. Btw. Where will you get your oil from if we don't open the strait?

The casuistry here is remarkable. This is the simple reality: Like most Americans, most Europeans think this war is a bad idea.Their governments are being asked to take a huge risk by a man who has proved unreliable, volatile and intemperate over and over. Who would do that?

@GuntherEagleman "And hear this" ???? These people are delusional!

No one cares. Literally, no one.

Loners creed.

@unusual_whales Top quality again SB.

20% of workers aged 18 to 26 strongly agree AI will positively impact their job in the next year, per ADP. That sentiment decreases as workers get older, with 15% of workers aged 40 to 54, & 10% of workers aged 55 to 64 reporting AI will positively impact their job.

@ChaelSonnen Heath. By a mile.

Tell me the better performance. A) Val Kilmer in TOMBSTONE B) Heath Ledger in BATMAN

This. It is ALL about the IP ownership. It always had been.

@LukeBarnett A genuinely great New York city movie.

A masterpiece. Also the prime example of character actors as leads making the movie 10x better.

What’s the oldest album that you still listen to regularly?

@hakasemini @DEADLINE I have thought about it for many years. Know exactly the movies I will make and how to direct and shoot them. If I can't copywrite the film itself, the script and story will be, which is what I will be selling. I know all about the film business. It was killed by its gatekeepers.

@writebythesee @DEADLINE i want you to really think about what it would mean that you can "make your own movies" and what the ostensible purpose of that would be and whether doing it would actually fulfill the purpose you think it would

"The data center IS the computer. Most investors aren’t ready." That's unnerving.

@RadioFreeTom The Atlantic? Lol

Reports now that Hegseth oversold the war to Trump and underestimated Iran's willingness to fight back. It's almost as if he's unqualified for his job. Too bad the Senate didn't have confirmation hearings; those would have proven his manifest unsuitability to lead the Pentagon.

The largest and sharpest image ever taken of the Andromeda galaxy — otherwise known as M31. It is the biggest Hubble image ever released and shows over 100 million stars, thousands of star clusters in a section of the galaxy’s disc stretching across over 40 000 light-years.

𝐕𝐃𝐇 𝐁𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐊𝐒 𝐃𝐎𝐖𝐍 𝐓𝐑𝐔𝐌𝐏’𝐒 𝐈𝐑𝐀𝐍 𝐃𝐈𝐋𝐄𝐌𝐌𝐀: 𝐊𝐀𝐑𝐆𝐀 𝐈𝐒𝐋𝐀𝐍𝐃, 𝐇𝐎𝐑𝐌𝐔𝐙, 𝐀𝐍𝐃 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐏𝐎𝐋𝐈𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐀𝐋 𝐈𝐌𝐏𝐎𝐒𝐒𝐈𝐁𝐈𝐋𝐈𝐓𝐘 Victor Davis Hanson laid out Trump’s strategic calculus on Iran — and why some days he says “we’re almost done” and other days he says “send more troops.” Trump has accomplished most of his stated objectives: 𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐲𝐞𝐝 𝐚 𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐝𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐫𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐦𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬, wiped out nuclear material production, neutralized the terrorist proxies — H-m-s, H-z-b, the Houthis — and protected the Gulf monarchies. But there’s an asterisk. “𝘗𝘦𝘰𝘱𝘭𝘦 𝘴𝘢𝘪𝘥, 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵’𝘴 𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘦 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘨𝘰𝘰𝘥, 𝘔𝘳. 𝘛𝘳𝘶𝘮𝘱, 𝘣𝘶𝘵 𝘪𝘵’𝘴 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘴𝘦𝘵 𝘪𝘯 𝘴𝘵𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘶𝘯𝘭𝘦𝘴𝘴 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘤𝘩𝘢𝘯𝘨𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘳𝘦𝘨𝘪𝘮𝘦.” The problem: Trump has 𝐍𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐲 𝐌𝐚𝐜𝐞, 𝐑𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐏𝐚𝐮𝐥, and a dozen others who ran on “no ground troops.” They’re all up for reelection. He knows what he has to do — but it carries enormous political risk. Option one: take 𝐊𝐚𝐫𝐠𝐚 𝐈𝐬𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐝. About eight miles across, half the size of Manhattan. It holds Iran’s oil export infrastructure. Taking it would starve the regime of revenue. But the island has been mined, has Hamas-style underground facilities, drone coverage. “𝘞𝘦 𝘸𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 𝘭𝘰𝘴𝘦 𝘢 𝘭𝘰𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘴𝘰𝘭𝘥𝘪𝘦𝘳𝘴.” Option two: create a 𝐬𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐫𝐢𝐝𝐨𝐫 𝐚𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐇𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐮𝐳. Go house-to-house on the shore opposite the strait, clearing missiles, drones, and speedboats. Trump would frame it as a limited mission with a definite term — not “inserting ground troops in the war.” If he pulls it off: shut down their oil, wait for the money to dry up, wait for the people to rise. “𝘑𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘴𝘪𝘵 𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘸𝘢𝘪𝘵 𝘵𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘨𝘰 𝘣𝘳𝘰𝘬𝘦. 𝘈𝘯𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘸𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘨𝘰 𝘣𝘳𝘰𝘬𝘦.” 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐠𝐲 𝐢𝐬 𝐜𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐫. 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐩𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐬 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐛𝐫𝐮𝐭𝐚𝐥.

🚨 UNITED PASSENGER CATCHES INSANE NASA ROCKET LAUNCH FROM PLANE WINDOW — FLIGHT ATTENDANT LOSES IT MID-AIR A United flight just turned into a front-row seat to history. A woman captures the exact moment NASA’s Artemis II rocket launches… straight from her window at 30,000 feet. And then you hear the flight attendant: “15 years of flying… I’ve been praying to see something like this.” • Rocket blasting through the clouds • Crew calling it a “once in a lifetime” moment He said he flew to Florida multiple times just to see a launch… Canceled. Every time. And then this happens midair. What are the chances you randomly look out your window… and see history taking off?
