"Hand off Iran! No new war in the Middle East!"
Poster seen in Baltimore, Maryland

Can think of nothing more cowardly than pressing a button to shoot a missile that will land dozens or hundreds of miles away. Little bottle of water next to your desk. "Yes sir" and all that shit. Walking around saluting each other. Fucking losers. Killers.

The least human thing you can do I read a story just now about a man in Chicago who saved a baby after its carriage had been blown into the harbor by heavy gusts of wind. Lio Cundiff – who is a trans man not that it should matter her...

Expecting us – with good reason based on history – to all thank them for their service. Fuck your service and fuck you.

Saving a life is brave. Being instructed to kill and saying no I will not do that is brave. But killing like this? It is the least human thing you can do.

Footage shows three US Patriot air defense missiles fail to intercept an Iranian ballistic missile before it strikes Al-Udeid Airbase in Qatar.

Not the same guy, you brick-brained clown. The one who came to power in 1979 died 10 years later in ‘89.

Not bad D by Addison there at the end!

Evan Nelson ♥️

anyone choosing this moment to be all "here's what you get with republicans: bombs in the middle east" needs to grow up rapidly, considering what the last dem admin did in gaza & their current support for trump's actions right now. this is what you get with (wholly bipartisan) american imperialism

Hello friends,🫂
Today situation has deteriorated. Food prices have skyrocketed, and some people are buying large quantities to stockpile. I don't want another famine, but I wish I could buy some food and store it for my children. I would appreciate your support, friends, and help me raise $500.

one good thing about being antiwar is you will never be wrong. one bad thing about being antiwar is no one who matters will ever listen to you

Prices are jumping all over Gaza because of the war and fears about what that means for the border- if you can help someone there please do ❤️

I do think it’s weird everyone is uncritically reposting that ISRAEL says Khamenei is dead.

I’d sooner poke out one of my eyes than believe what Israel says with no evidence, but that’s me I guess.

Elite Doctors Served Jeffrey Epstein While Treating His ‘Girls’

NEW: I and colleagues reviewed 15,000 documents to illuminate how Jeffrey Epstein used VIP doctors to control and manipulate young women* — and how the doctors helped him, treating his needs as more important than the patients'. Gift link.

The thing is that this isn’t just weakness from Democrats like Schumer, it’s a performance so they can help launder a war they fully support

No Boots on the Ground, No Bombs in the Air

Picture of Marjane Satrapi alongside a quote from her. The quote reads: The world is not divided into countries. The world is not divided between East and West. You are American, I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk together and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you. And our governments are very much the same... - Marjane Satrapi, Iranian-French graphic novelist

Thinking about this quote from Persepolis creator Marjane Satrapi again.

We were founded as Iraq Veterans Against the War over the devastation we saw with our own eyes when Bush claimed we were going to liberate the people of Iraq and protect Americans. That war is now referred to as a blunder but it was a crime just like this War on Iran is now. /1

for those fixated on congressional authorization, i get it. this is a massive violation of our constitutional order.

even so, congress *cannot* legitimize an illegal war. there is nothing congress can do to make it legal under int'l law.

It’s wrong to vaporize school children even if Congress votes to approve it.

i think the people who start wars are bad

i personally think war is bad

It’s hotter than balls but we miss you!

How Kansas Republicans weaponized the law to target 300 trans driver's license holders SB 244 was put into effect virtually overnight, causing chaos, panic and fear in the trans community.

New — I spoke to eight trans people in Kansas about the new state law that invalidated their driver’s licenses overnight, what’s it’s like to live there right now, plus details of two DMV emails exclusively obtained by The Handbasket that shed light on the law’s chaotic and cruel rollout:
