Iran has closed the Straits of Hormuz. 20 to 30% of all oil flows through the Straits of Hormuz. Oil traders here in Houston are predicting oil that was trading at $73 a barrel will soar to over $100 by Monday morning. Energy stocks will soar. So will the cost at the pump. All Trump’s fault #PB #USD

Should say: "Bored of Peace"

I can't figure out whether the question was more obtuse, or more plain stupid.

Well this War is certainly taking a lot of other things into the background. Let's not forget K?

All of yesterday's crimes are still critical. I'll try not to get too caught up in something that is, hate to say it, no more important than the genocides & other crimes in which we are complicit.

Running mate material, if not President?

"You have more in common with the average Iranian than you ever will the pedos you're fighting for."

Just outrageous.
Please let a 'hard rain' fall on these F'ers. 🤞

AR-15: the New Saturday Night Special

"Mister Saturday Night Special
Got a barrel that's blue and cold
That ain't good for nothing
But puttin' men six feet in a hole."

I can't draw... but I can still think.

Jeez. The possibility of Ukraine locking arms with Likud & MAGA against Iran to gain favor in their own existential war is frightening!
😨

Fill'er up. The price of movement is likely going up...

Audience: Too bad...

Anybody thinking about our ally in the neighborhood Türkiye?

Here's Erdoğan's quote:

We have an early winner in the US/ Iran War!!

The industrial military complex...

Millions & millions of dollars going boom! 💥

We will need much more, much better ($) now.

Will the MAGists use this war with Iran, finally, as an excuse to take their exit?

So many off-ramps, so many opportunities... never taken.

Everyone enjoying the new War Porn this morning?
Persia this time. Historically that has always gone well...🤨

"Redistribution of wealth. Can you do it violently, or non-violently".

Well can we?!

MAGA & Likud War.
What could go wrong?

I'm not suggesting anything, but it's looking like a world trend...

'77, bored, unchallenged, discontent...Sophomore in HS.
In '76 the Ramones, Blondie, Patti Smith appear, the Sex Pistols circling the drain.

The Clash!

Doc about that year, not in the white-bread backwaters of suburban SF Bay Area, but London.

Political music against the malaise!!

Nice watch

Pictured below: a completely unnecessary tug by the name of U.S.S. Stefanik.

The kicker is: the Russians destroyed errantly themselves. 😅

If I was Mr. Z, I would cut Hungary & Slovenia off Bashuska's milk immediately. Let them cry & whine.

They are already more than 1/2 way supporting Russia's genocide anyway...especailly ole Spanky down there. 👇

The only 'standing order' apparently is:
"Kick back, have a couple brewskis. Just like playing a video game."

Call it hopeful, but the old human value of siding with the little guy over the bully is not gone from our national character. It's just going through a season of trials & tribulations.

At least I pray not! 🌞

Netflix Backs Out of Bid for Warner Bros., Paving Way for an Ellison Takeover

The richest man owns X.

The second and third richest men control Google.

The fourth richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fifth richest man owns The Washington Post.

And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros.

See the problem here?

And their reps should reflect this, & don't. $$$$$
Been true for many decades...
