My neighbor is a great guy, a Marine I’m close friends with him
He has untreatable brain cancer, and the past few weeks it’s become very bad
He came outside as I took Nelson out and could only say my name, gesturing to his head
I said “I know” and gave him a hug as he cried

@elonmusk If murderers have an extremely high rate of recidivism, why are you focusing on a registry instead of sending them to a mortuary?
English
Given the extremely high rate of recidivism, this is important for community safety
The Rabbit Hole@TheRabbitHole
Murder registry is a good idea from Elon. People should know if they are close to a murderer so proper precautions can be taken.

@_PendrickLamar @Black_Pilled @nickimoraa Black culture is merely post-slavery appropriated white hillbilly culture.
White hillbilly culture arrived in the United States South through the poorest whites from England.

@CryptoEdg3 @RyLiberty @ShaykhSulaiman Iran used the petrodollar until the US sanctioned them. The same applies to Russia.
If the petrodollar were such a massive concern, one would think the country most concerned about it would stop sanctioning other nations away from using it.
English
@RyLiberty @ShaykhSulaiman Petrodollar is used less and less each day. That's worse than a US city being attacked because America will crumble on its own with civil wars and less influence to control other nation states

@TalalAbugabal @WSJ @WSJopinion Well Zionism comes out of Judaism which is a religion based around the racial narrative of gods chosen people, which both rejects and sees the spiritual covenant of Christianity as antisemitic.

I am not making any excuse for the indiscriminate death of others, you are.
I have no side, only an unanswered question regarding the claim David Deutsch made that this attack by Israel in Lebanon was not indiscriminate:
How many civilian deaths constitute indiscriminate killing, and how many do not?
English
@threedaysdeep @DavidDeutschOxf @Jamie_Weinstein Your side bombs civilians all the time - streets, airports, hotels, schools, universities, civilians ships. You have no integrity to be accusing anyone for the same. At least Israel is issuing warnings and engaging in precise terrorist elimination (the pagers operation) etc.
English
Has a single person upset with Israel’s actions in Lebanon explained what Israel should do instead to a terror group continuously firing missiles at it making the North of the country uninhabitable?
English
@DavidDeutschOxf @Jamie_Weinstein Maybe David Deutsch can inform the public on a scale from 'beginning to infinity' how many civilian deaths qualify as indiscriminate — and how many do not.
English
@DavidDeutschOxf @Jamie_Weinstein Contrarian opinion: Opposing indiscriminate bombardment of any kind is a legitimate, prevailing moral stance

🇺🇸🇮🇱🇮🇷 The inside story of how the war started is more damning than anyone imagined
The New York Times just published the most detailed account yet of Trump's decision to attack Iran.
Every American should read it.
February 11th. Netanyahu arrives at the White House for a classified Situation Room briefing. Mossad on the screens behind him.
He plays Trump a video montage of potential new Iranian leaders, including the exiled son of the Shah.
He tells Trump regime change is within reach.
The missile program can be destroyed in weeks. Iran won't be able to close Hormuz.
Retaliation against U.S. interests would be "minimal."
Trump's response: "Sounds good to me."
Every single one of those assurances turned out to be wrong. Iran closed Hormuz.
Retaliation hit six countries. The missile program survived underground.
The regime consolidated power instead of collapsing. And 44 days later, Trump accepted a ceasefire on Iranian terms.
February 26th.
The final Situation Room meeting. Trump goes around the table.
Vance: "You know I think this is a bad idea, but if you want to do it, I'll support you."
Rubio: "If the goal is regime change, we shouldn't do it."
Cheung, the comms director, warned it contradicted everything they'd said for eight months about Iranian nuclear facilities being destroyed.
The CIA director said regime change was possible "if we just mean killing the supreme leader."
Nobody said no.
Everyone deferred to the president's instincts.
The Treasury Secretary and Energy Secretary, the two people who would need to manage the largest oil supply disruption in history, weren't even in the room.
Neither was the Director of National Intelligence.
The next day, aboard Air Force One, 22 minutes before the military deadline, Trump sent six words:
"Operation Epic Fury is approved. No aborts. Good luck."

🇮🇷🇺🇸 The ceasefire is less than 24 hours old and it's already being torn apart over Lebanon... Here's the situation. Pakistan announced the ceasefire applied "everywhere, including Lebanon." Iran agreed on that basis. Then Netanyahu called Trump minutes before the announcement and got him to agree Lebanon was excluded. The White House never clarified publicly until it was too late. Vance called it a "legitimate misunderstanding." That's a generous way of describing what happened. Iran entered a ceasefire believing Lebanon was included. Israel entered knowing it wasn't. Someone either miscommunicated or deliberately let Iran sign a deal under false assumptions. The result: Israel launched its largest strike on Lebanon since the war began. Iran is now threatening to withdraw from Saturday's talks and close Hormuz again. Araghchi put it plainly: "The U.S. must choose. Ceasefire or continued war via Israel. It cannot have both." Egypt accused Israel of a "premeditated" attempt to undermine the truce. Iranian news agencies report oil tankers in Hormuz were stopped after the Lebanon strikes. Vance says Israel "offered to check themselves a little bit" going forward. If Iran pulls out over Lebanon, he said, "that would be dumb but that's their choice." This is exactly the pattern I've tracked for 44 days. Every time peace gets close, Israel fills the gap with bombs. The question has always been whether Trump controls Netanyahu or Netanyahu controls Trump. The phone call minutes before the ceasefire announcement answered that question. Source: Axios

Also same guy said:
"He’s offering the technocrats a deal or death"
So basically the choices are they take the deal or Trump collapses the country 🤦
Also the deal is "much more roman than postmodern" is a worse deal.
Look what the Roman's did to Carthage or anywhere else that didn't get in line:
It was absolute destruction

@LudwigNverMises @Sargon_of_Akkad @BretWeinstein >threatens to send them back to the "stone age"
>"hell will reign on them"
>but somehow he's not trying to collapse the country

Trump, who I advocated for in 2024, has gone full "mad king." In considering my responsibility, I'd ask you to remember:
The case I made rested on the fact that Biden/Harris were figureheads, shielding a cabal that couldn't be held to account, whereas Trump could.
And we must.
English
All it took to see this coming was a little bit of political situational awareness.
2024. Trump was in major legal trouble heading into the election.
He absolutely NEEDED to become President. Why? To protect himself and his family.
Major Donors that were supporting other candidates agreed to support him when it became clear he was the only viable option.
To get their support he had to make consessions.
Some commentators made the Iran connect v early.
But this escalation then became apparent after the bombing of Iran's nuclear facilities (which was always the lead up to regime change).
English
@BretWeinstein I don't think any of us expected this full-throated neocon turn, given Trump's consistent anti-war rhetoric, right up until early 2025.

@Megaindividual @RyLiberty That isn't Christianity.
You're taking about the batshit evolution that came down to us from Dispensationalism to Christian Zionism.
Which can then be easily argued to have influenced the holy rollers, as well as the politically motivated Judeo-Christian neoliberal nonsense.

@RyLiberty Christianity is kinda designed for that kind of Lunacy but the whole holy roller america thing is more like the movie little Nicki, but instead of satan spawn infiltrating the earth it's jews. so the same thing

@sam_elks @RyLiberty @mdubowitz @RealDeanCain What's your bad guy ranking system look like?
The United States is allies with terrorists who funded and planned 9/11.
The U. S. also has quite the sorid history in regards to terrorism that would likely give Iran nightmares.

@RyLiberty @mdubowitz @RealDeanCain The Islamic regime is funding terrorists around the world and murdering tens of thousands of its citizens
You’re siding with the bad guys Ryan

Next time, let’s wait until Iran has nuclear-armed ICBMs, 10,000 ballistic missiles, a Chinese- and Russian-built military, a million attack drones, a fully operational terror network, and hundreds of billions to harden its economy. Then we’ll fight to reopen Hormuz.

@RealEmirHan The entire show centers on Walter's insecurity and the self-destructive, overcompensating arrogance born of his fragile ego.

On his deathbed, Don Quixote renounced the world of chivalric romance and knight-errantry that caused his delusions, reclaiming his sanity and his real name, Alonso Quixano.
He also expresses regret for his detestable books of chivalry, characterizing them as absurd, dangerous fantasies.
So yes, one could say Cervantes really did help launch the modern era of Western Culture. Only it was in an idealistic-crushing way that most are not prepared for or aware of.
English
Don Quixote, by Miguel de Cervantes. “What if a man read so many stories he began to think he was the hero of one?” is an all-time great premise, and with it Cervantes almost single-handedly launched the modern era.

Inspired by the guy who had never heard of the Odyssey, here’s a thread of books you should at least KNOW about, if you want to be culturally literate.

Three Days Deep@threedaysdeep
Fell down a rabbit hole because of this tweet. I found it fascinating tracing the Nietzsche–Don Quixote connection. Aside from realizing the negative elusive obvious effect Don Quixote had on Western culture, and how it relates to Nietzsche's thinking, one thing that affected me in particular was reading Nietzsche's letter to Rohde from December 1875. Two empowering ideas surface if a person can hold together the paradox a wounded, physically broken Nietzsche raises in that letter: - Empowerment of your journey. Be Quixotic. Chase windmills on your own terms, eyes open, without waiting for society's permission or applause. - Pain minimization. When you yourself can see that any of your passions are really Quixotic, it shifts something inside you. Your personal pains shrink, your freedoms expand, and your struggles no longer feel like cosmic tragedies. Basically, see personal and external windmills for what they are. Charge anyway — but with godlike freedom rather than naive delusion.

You need to be reading a lot fewer self help books and a lot more classics

1. The director of It Follows helms this film.
2. The goal is to always keep J.J. Abrams away from the story or contain his involvement to a single movie. As Abrams's Bad Robot "mystery box" storytelling payoffs over trilogies or series are atrocious.
Both of these facts may save this movie from being terrible.
