Radical take, but it is bad when one country murders the current and former heads of state of another sovereign country in unprovoked acts of military aggression.

egg in a basket is a lowkey slam dunk for a simple breakfast that checks all the right boxes, don’t know why i don’t make em more often. toss a slice of cheddar on if you really want to go nuts

a man with a beard says " who would ve thought " ALT: a man with a beard says " who would ve thought "

Spurs fans and West Ham fans talking about a relegation fight ☹️

2003, folks.

Also, look at young Jezza on the bench

And when they bombed other people’s houses, we protested but not enough, we opposed them but not enough. I was in my bed, around my bed America was falling: invisible house by invisible house by invisible house. I took a chair outside and watched the sun. In the sixth month of a disastrous reign in the house of money in the street of money in the city of money in the country of money, our great country of money, we (forgive us) lived happily during the war.

don't even know anymore how many times I revisit this one from Ilya Kaminsky... #poetry

Genuinely a terrible time to be alive if you (1) read books, (2) actively try to live according to a set of ethical principles, and (3) have halfway decent pattern recognition.

sure the pedophile felon president just illegally bombed a country that may have nukes while federal forces under his command murder and harass people in america and immigrants are tortured and he moves forward with plans to build concentration camps and sorry idk where i was going fuck all of this

Underrated just how much the US and Israel have been desecrating the very idea of diplomatic engagement by doing these obvious bait and switches.

This is the third time now that negotiations were used as cover to prepare for a war already decided. The lesson is to never speak to the US.

“Imperialist wars of choice are fine as long as they’re procedurally legitimate.”

The average American does not know a single thing about Iran. They might think they know three things but they think it's basically Iraq and Libya and Lebanon and Kuwait and Pakistan, aka it is just a placeholder for whatever they want to imagine it is

Yeah I pretty much tossed my lessons plans for Mon-Tue classes out the window this morning and will be doing a crash course in modern Iranian history and US-Iranian relations.

The lack of understanding is criminal.

The republic may be collapsing but the papers still need to be written…proposal submitted…

knowledge economy go brrrrrrr

Every single outlet that uncritically recites Israel's self-designation of "preemptive strikes" should be permanently shut down for good. Straight up. Definitionally no such thing as a "preemptive" attack when the country being attacked had no plan nor indication of planning to attack first.

2003, folks.

The way my therapist clearly read the news and just texted me about my availability next week lmao

Wouldn't want a little war to get in the way of a golf weekend.

The world could be such a nice place if we allowed it. It's all so goddamn unnecessary. There's no need for any of it. It's so beautiful here. It should be so cool to be alive

National soccer federations need to boycott World Cup games hosted in the U.S. and FIFA should be demolished

Imagine getting deployed to fight and die in the Epstein Wars

Regime change needs to start at home if this republic is to survive

War is evil. Wars of choice are indefensible.

I enjoyed “A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms” a lot because I relate to being a big dumb idiot who means well but is also a disaster.

This story is straight up fucking insane

JUST IN: A federal judge says the Trump administration has been “terrorizing” refugees — violating the promise America made to them when they fled persecution at home — by locking them up illegally. He blocked the policy for those in MN storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

I have written it. I have not submitted it. Batting .500 and I can live with that. Will submit tomorrow after I’ve slept on the abstract and look at it again with fresh eyes.

this is what they said it would be like under socialism

If you have to say you’re “the coolest VP in American history,” you clearly aren’t. Not in a world where Henry Wallace, Henry Wilson, and George Clinton existed.

Also cackling at the concept of a “cool” Vice President.

The entire Democratic strategy debate — "moderate" or move left? fight or compromise? — is based on a misreading of data. Voters don't think Dems are too progressive; they think Dems are weak. The actual math on what to do about this isn't even close!

Feels instructive, but we can rely on centrists to learn all the wrong lessons.
