"Some random country that hasn't fought a war in 40 years..."

Over 500 dead British and French personnel (more than 1,000 total European fatalities) and c10,000 injured in Afghanistan 2001-2021. The only time Article 5 has been invoked.

'Disrespect' does not reside in lack of a suit, Mr Vance. ~AA

Maybe ... maybe ... that explains voting for him the first time.

But to believe anything he says now, they'd have to have been in a coma for the last eight years.

He attacked foreign allies last time around ... I assume voters felt that was a good thing and that they'd like to see it happen again.

Everyone knew what they were voting for.

I don't understand the in-fighting ... anti-immigrant isolationist nationalism is precisely what America voted for. That's what Trump supporters want.

It's not as if any of this was hidden; everyone knew what they were choosing.

She has so many beautiful lines, but this is the one that always gets me:

"His eyes hold Edith
His left hand holds his right
What does that hand desire
That he grips it so tight"

Oh, what an image. 2/2

For many years I was firmly ensconced in the Blue and Ladies of the Canyon period. My horizons were expanded by the demo sessions of Summer Lawns ... absolutely jaw dropping.

They finally got an official release on volume 3 of the Archives, disc 5. Gorgeous, stripped down ... wonderful. 1/2

Jimmy Carter must be staying alive just to say “you fuckers made me give up my peanut farm.”

Congratulations to the International Criminal Court ... now even those of us who detest Netanyahu support him, on this one issue at least.

You've managed to unite Israelis. Well done.

Lots of headlines about how deportations will cause labor shortages and spike food prices.

Lots of stories about how mass deportations will spike food prices and cause inflation. But as Tom Bonier noted, only one published before Election Day...

An advert for a company called Magibook. The headline reads "Turn HARD books into EASY books with Magibook! Maximize your reading potential and avoid difficult language today." Underneath is two covers of The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald. Above the first cover is the original version of the opening sentence (captioned "Turn Hard Books"), which reads "In my younger and more vulnerable years my father gave me some advice that I've been turning over in my mind ever since." Above the second cover (captioned "into Easy Books") is a simplified version, which reads "When I was young, my dad told me something that I still think about."

THE BELL JAR

HARD ❌

It was a queer, sultry summer, the summer they electrocuted the Rosenbergs, and I didn't know what I was doing in New York

EASY ✅

That summer was sizzling, and so were the Rosenbergs

Meme with side by side pictures of Marco Rubio and RFK, Jr, labeled “Marco” and “Polio.”

Who made this? Ahahaha
