If this is true, it's a very good sign. But we need to maintain this pressure. We can't just see the new assholes in charge & start negotiations under ceasefire again.

#BREAKING: U.S. strikes reportedly killed the IRGC Chief at an underground command center.

RIP. While most people primarily associate Neil with Jurassic Park, my mind still goes right to Dead Calm.

Sam Neill has sadly passed away at the age of 78.

The biggest sin of a pit bull is that they have traits (strength, look, athleticism) that make them disproportionately attractive to abusive/neglectful owners. The 'upside' for me and my family (we own three and have fostered several) is that they're very affectionate goofballs.

I would do that, it makes a lot of sense.
Everything is done for you. There’s hiring because the hotel does it. The amount of hassle goes way down.
You just got to have the money.
Like rich people who have homes all over I do t understand why. Just stay at a nice hotel for a month or what.

One of the wealthiest guys I know stayed in a 5 star hotel before getting the keys to his apartment, and he enjoyed it so much he cancelled the apartment contract & stayed in the hotel for 4 years straight. Never seen a person so happy and stress free in my life.

Hotels are infinitely better than Airbnbs. They’re cheaper. No chores, no cleaning fees, no insane surprise rules, no mystery stains, and no host pretending to be your new best friend. Just check in, sleep, and leave. The way it should be.

@zillaah707 I’ve been using Wondra for years.
My southern god mother introduced it to me.
It’s great for a quick gravy.

Was anyone else measured by someone that was a bag of shit like this?

@DrHelenFry I’ve read about the German aces and they give Hitler a pass but boy did they hate Goering.

In his Nuremberg cell, the once all powerful Hermann Göring greeted his Jewish translator with charm and grandiosity.
Stripped of rank, this larger than life Nazi still believed he would be treated as a respected leader:

@DastDn Kinda like how NASA needed Space X.
DoD like NASA is just mired in too much bureaucracy.

I remain entirely to tech-illiterate to make up my mind on how effective Anduril's gear actually is.
I hope the critics are wrong. We need more domestic defense start-ups. And Anduril's patter on re-imagining our approach is right. Hopefully they are living up to it in practice.

ANDURIL FOUNDER PALMER LUCKEY PRESENTS THE “BARRACUDA” CRUISE MISSILE ON JAPANESE TV: “THIS IS DESIGNED TO SCARE CHINA INTO NOT TAKING ACTION ON TAIWAN. IT HAS A VERY SPECIFIC PURPOSE. WE DESIGN OUR CRUISE MISSILES SO THAT THEY CAN BE VERY EASILY MANUFACTURED BY AUTOMOTIVE-STYLE ASSEMBLY LINES. REMEMBER THAT DURING WWII, THE UNITED STATES USED THEIR PEACETIME FACTORIES AND PIVOTED THEM TO WARTIME USE. IT’S MUCH LESS EXPENSIVE THAN A CONVENTIONAL MISSILE… IT’S CHEAPER TO MAKE 100,000 OF THESE THAN 1,000 EXISTING MISSILES. I SHOULD BE ABLE TO BUY A WHOLE BUNCH OF THESE FOR LESS THAN A BUDGET COMPACT CAR.”

@susylicious2023 A punishing divorce is the answer.
This is a rank betrayal.
The new wife is not really contrite. She is just a selfish jealous person.
If he wants a good relationship with his daughter he has to divorce.

@DavidAFrench Yeah I don’t like Paxton at all.
Paxton will be of he wins a worse senator for Texas.
Cornyn would be better and is loyal to the party and Trump.
English
In some ways, Republican devotion to the attorney general of Texas, Ken Paxton, is even more troubling than its continued support for Trump. Their enthusiastic support for a corrupt adulterer (Texas Republicans voted for him in the Senate primary runoff over the conservative, scandal-free John Cornyn by a staggering 28 points) tells us that the moral compromise of Trump’s supporters isn’t confined to the president. There is an expanding acceptance of corrupt politicians — so long as they "fight." nytimes.com/2026/07/12/opi…

I have some very sad and very braking news

@miles_commodore Everytime the Braves knocked the Astros out of the playoffs. They just had our number.
For a time I wished the Braves team plane would crash.
I don’t think that now but at the time I did. That’s how much I hated the Braves.

As a life long sports fan, what was the most painful loss you ever suffered? I'm talking about the one that made you want to throw up it hurt so bad.

@BradDuplessis I was more they should take the husbands last name until I dated a Jewish woman and realized my last name would not be great for her.
Same as an infamous Nazi war criminal.

@IMAO_ Look at the problems Jews are having with their medical care.
Doctors and nurses are neglecting and tormenting them in the UK and Australia.
These governments need to be much more active on combating anti semitism

Just your regular reminder it’s a bad idea to put health care in the hands of people who will celebrate your death if you disagree with them — even if it’s “free.”

The UAE owns a shit ton of parking meters in Chicago in one of the worst deals of the century.
Chicago should just say “fuck you guys were taking them back”.
What are they going to do? Invade Chicago? No. Do it, just take them back. The won’t do anything about it

Expecting Mitch McConnell but getting Lindsey Graham is like ordering a chocolate chip cookie but getting a snickerdoodle.
I'm confused, but not upset.

@JeremyRoss77 They’re having electrical issues at that location.
I went there one evening a month ago and they closed early because they lost power.

Chaos at the Henderson Costco yesterday as several coolers stopped working correctly. It saved us money as we couldn't buy certain things, but I'm sure Costco lost bank yesterday.
They also added Temu special cones when you walk in. Kristin was like - " someone got hit", and sure as shit, the cart guys told us someone got hit, so they put out the cones.

@JonahDispatch The Left doesn't like the Senate because it's an obstacle to their gaining more power.
English
I find all “the senate is the problem because it’s undemocratic” discourse to be ridiculous on many philosophical, factual, and political levels. But the biggest reason it’s ridiculous is it’s just a waste of time. The Constitution literally makes it impossible to get rid of the senate, so maybe just deal with its existence the way we have to deal with the moon. Neither are going anywhere in our lifetimes.

This is actually a smart talking point. When America was founded, we were rural. Now we’re urban. The idea that just because you live in a sparsely populated area you should have ~50X representation is toxic and destructive.
