My feed was so bad I declared twitter bankruptcy and created a new account dedicated to my love of tech and hatred of olives

@realjacobsrival @davereaboi I don't know what the ultimate outcome will be - it seems obvious it's not going according to plan. It also seems **really** likely that at the end of this Iran will retain the ability to close the Straight at will.

@unaliveolives @davereaboi I guess you really don’t understand what I think? I have no confidence in any particular outcome here. I just know anyone who is saying it’s definitely a disaster is not to be trusted.

@unaliveolives @davereaboi It was open because the regime was operating freely. Now that we’ve started this, I see the value in trying to take control of the strait from Iran.

@davereaboi If it really is decisive military victory then the US will be able to reopen the Strait. If it’s not, then escalating seems like a big potential risk. Personally, I think getting it open is a finite enough goal that there’s a case to be made for taking the chance.

And those solar panels are gonna start shooting back up in price unless something borderline miraculous happens to avert the snowballing energy crisis caused by the Strait of Hormuz partial closure combined with AI data centers and extreme weather both burdening the electric grid
Porco Westwood@WestwoodPhilip

You need to tell the young ones that now is the time to invest in cheap solar or wind for yourself. Our lovely chinese comrades have come a long ass way so panels are finally really cheap and really good. Battery storage is a pain but alot can be made if you are even slightly technical or bought if you can afford the upsell of not having to solder.

Vote in the midterms. For for primary challengers to Dems who have been feckless in resisting Trump. Call your congressperson and insist they not cave on cutting ICE off from funding. When the admin comes along asking for $200bn for the Iran war insist they vote no. Basically support resistance to the Trump administration.

On one hand, I commend these people for taking action rather than just critiquing the way action is taken (which is what i'm doing). So genuinely, hats off to them for that! However, I find it interesting there have been thousands of No Kings rallies since they started and I have 0 idea of their goals besides loosely defined awareness. I suppose if "awareness" is the motive, the narcissism becomes acceptable. The woman above obviously came in a costume with the intention of getting her photo taken and going viral. Just like the outlandish heckin quirky "ironic" signs people make. Cool, you got to be a meme for 2 days. But what to do with this awareness? Is there legislation they want us to support? Any real tangible outcome we can look forward to? What do you want us (the American citizens you presumably want to be "aware") to actually do? x.com/Breaking911/st…

@Arrogance_0024 Because Israel is not a nato Ally The strait of Hormuz is not in the North Atlantic USA had steps to follow if they wanted nato to join, and didn’t take those steps. NATO is defensive Also, Iraq was a mistake in some ways.

Why did NATO allies follow Bush in Iraq but refuse to follow Trump in Iran? What exactly has changed? What is the "problem" now? Or should I rather say: WHO is the problem??

@Arrogance_0024 Bush spent months making the case, went to the UN, got congress to authorize force, praised Europe as our allies, strongly supported NATO - Trump did none of this and has insulted and put tariffs on Europe from the get go.

@realjacobsrival There is no way you would reserve this much judgement if it were any other politician in any other situation. He’s threatening to destroy drinking water for a country of 60 million. It’s not going well. They closed the straight and he can’t reopen it.

@realjacobsrival They gave me a very big gift. They’re letting 10 ships through. He obviously had no idea what he was kicking off and now he’s stuck because Iran is kindof winning.

@unaliveolives If you don't think he's being deliberately slippery about any and all expectations then you're just denying a super obvious thing.

@unaliveolives I think I start with the premise that Trump knew it was going to be difficult but decided it was something they had to try. There was no particular expectation. I did not want a war with Iran but if he solves a generational issue, I understand the upside is massive.

Proves may known points: Lesbianism isn’t real. They crave dick as much as your average woman, but have often been traumatized/brainwashed in their past. Presenting as a woman, even an ugly toad version or sad fat male in a wig, can trick the judgement centers of the brain long enough to not trigger trauma response The trans woman is a perfect non threatening candidate. Obvious male, but self humiliated in a shitty wig and polyester dress. Ugly, no self confidence. Has an erection not due to real attraction, but from autogynephillic “transgressive” naughty thoughts. Anatomically useful, not threatening actual connection. This alliance is perfect, but collapses eventually because lesbians are generally unpleasant, and trans women are males with immense self hatred. It eventually will rupture to the surface, ending up in some suicide by cop scenario, which is another way of subconsciously asking a real man to solve their problems.

@unaliveolives @MarkHalperin @realDonaldTrump 7th century murderous mullahs should not have control of commerce. If people are willing to let Islamic killers dictate fees to move goods America should control The Strait . 3 choices in Shia Islam: Convert Slavery Or death. Choose wisely.

Q. You know what a game changer will be on Iran? A. Validation of what @realDonaldTrump has been saying about ships going through the Strait of Hormuz...because ships start to go through. The implications of that validation will be far-reaching. And it could happen REALLY soon. more tk

@unaliveolives @MarkHalperin @realDonaldTrump So you are saying that taking out a terroristic regime that has been killing Americans for decades and their own civilians doesn't matter if you manage to re open the strait? The hypocrisy is astonishing.
