@MarioNawfal I don't know what is crazier, the Guardian writing this or you repeating it. There is plenty of sulphur in America. Hot springs, volcanoes, etc. The only problems are American bureaucracy preventing domestic use and foreign slave labor undercutting domestic prices.

🚨🇺🇸🇮🇷 The U.S can't replace its own destroyed radars because Iran just choked off the minerals needed to build them. West Point just published an analysis showing sulphur trade through the Strait of Hormuz is nearly dead, and sulphur is what you need to extract copper and cobalt from ore. Those metals go into everything from microprocessors to jet engines to the explosives in missiles. It'll take over 30,000 kg of copper just to replace the two major radars Iran destroyed in Bahrain and Qatar. At least 9 radars have been targeted across the region. The damage status of each is still unknown. The cost could be in the hundreds of millions of dollars. In the meantime, sulphur prices have spiked 165% year over year. This is huge because only 6% of US defense contractors have transparent supply chains, so military planners are just now realizing they can't actually manufacture their way out of this war. A West Point analyst warns it could cost double or more than before the war to replace destroyed weapons, assuming markets can even provide enough minerals at all. Source: Guardian, ABC News

🚨🇮🇷🇮🇱🇶🇦🇸🇦 Israel crossed Iran's energy red line by striking the South Pars gas field, and now both sides are torching each other's energy infrastructure across the Gulf. Iran fired back at Israel's Haifa refinery, Qatar's Ras Laffan (the world's largest LNG plant), plus refineries in Saudi Arabia and Kuwait. Israel went after facilities that produce 730 million cubic meters of gas daily. The Strait of Hormuz is effectively dead. Traffic dropped 96% in the first 18 days of war, from thousands of transits to just 98. Saudi Arabia is now desperately pumping oil west through pipelines to Yanbu on the Red Sea to bypass the strait. If Iran hits Yanbu, analysts say 5-6 million barrels a day disappear from global markets and oil could hit $150. Brent crude has already jumped from the $70s to $115 since the war started. Every major energy facility that gets hit pushes prices higher. This is now a global energy crisis that's about to slam inflation and interest rates worldwide. Source: Wall Street Journal

Who else is old enough to remember this? Riverdance inspired me to try dancing, including tap and clog. Now, looking back, my eyes are wet and I cannot stop smiling. The West needs to remember who we are, and who we are more than capable of becoming again. youtu.be/zy79KKpQ988?si…

@joewheat27 Better to lose to Texas in the first round than to Gonzaga in the second.

*discussion with coworker who is pro communism* Me: Have you read The Communist Manifesto? Coworker: No. Why would I? Me: So you know what communists stand for. Coworker: Well idk, it might be biased against communism. Is it written by a capitalist or a communist? Me: Coworker: Me: It's by Karl Marx. Coworker: Who's that? Me:

@BYUFanGuy We've got good players. They just have no chemistry. Perhaps next year we will play the "loyal, strong, and true" BYU players who haven't transfered rather than try to plug in the flashiest new recruit.

Next year can we get more than three good players? And guys that aren’t injured every single damn year?

Do you realize how insane this is? There are 61 males competing on girls’ teams in a single county in Colorado. SIXTY ONE boys on girls’ teams in just one county.
Lindsay Datko@ldatko

‼️Bombshell!!! Just received 31 page report sent by US Dept of Ed to @JeffcoSchoolsCo . In case anyone thought there weren’t really 61 males playing on girls’ teams, here you go! I’ll share more from the report soon! They have until March 23rd to comply! @Riley_Gaines_ @JenniferSey

So many BYU fans are blaming the rest of the team while exonerating Dybantsa, but Dybantsa didn't do himself any favors either, refusing to pass the ball, taking terrible shots, driving nowhere in hopes of drawing a foul. Sure, injuries, but BYU was not a cohesive team this year.

Updated NCAA policy allows competition in women's sports based on birth certificate. In many states people can change their sex on their birth certificate. In days! And it isn't shown as "changed." Why is the @NCAA so committed to unfairness for female athletes?
ICONS@icons_women

We see you, NCAA.

A civilization that lies about something as basic as the difference between men & women has already begun its death spiral. The ruling class cheers on boys dominating girls' competitions in the name of "progress." It's not progress. It's theft. It's cruelty.

I recently read a quote that said: "Sadness that brings you closer to God is better than happiness that pulls you further away." And now I can't unknow that.

Lisa Murkowski has been on the Senate floor for over ten minutes. As a member of the GOP, she's doing an EXCELLENT job of advocating for the SAVE America Act… oh wait... no, she's not. She's explaining why it's apparently TOO HARD to overcome logistical and geographical issues because of sled dogs and other things far less important than our nation's sovereignty. The amount of effort these people put into opposing something as simple as voter ID is astronomical and only proves how afraid they are.

You need an ID to board a plane, buy cold medicine, or open a bank account. Requiring one to vote shouldn't be controversial. We need to pass the SAVE Act in the Senate.
