Blondie's "I'm Not Living in the Real World" seems apt tonight.

Good wishes all around.

I'm glad the two teenage brothers are free now and I'm glad the Dem lawmakers took action.

But OMFG the detention centers are extrajudicial concentration camps and shouldn't exist.

The U.S. killed six more civilians in a boat strike in the Pacific Ocean yesterday.

More than 150 people have been slain in these extrajudicial killings since September 2025. @theintercept.com is tracking them all here:

Grimly ironic that he doesn’t understand theocracy, considering he’s presiding over one himself.

Iran will never, ever β€œcry uncle”.

Dementia-addled buffoon.

MS NOW confirming that a seventh U.S. solider has died in the U.S. Israel war w/ Iran.

He was 26.

This war is a week & a half old & so far we've killed 115 Iranian kids & seven U.S. soldiers & replaced one truly awful Supreme Leader w/ an even more awful one.

Dangerous idiocy.

Is the FBI Investigating Environmental Activists? - Inside Climate News A recent visit by an FBI agent to a climate activist hints at a broadening Trump administration effort to target political opponents.

The Trump administration is going after political opponents under the banner of "domestic terrorism," including environmental activists. β€œThey make pretty clear that it is ideology itself that is going to be targeted," says @rlevinsonwaldman.bsky.social:

Reports of the demise of irony have been greatly exaggerated

A year ago, Trump lambasted Zelensky in the Oval Office, pressing Ukraine to surrender

Trump said, β€œYou don’t have the cards” and JD Vance attacked him for not wearing a suit

Now Trump is begging Ukraine to help in his war against Iran

Which is *why* there's no test, treatment or cure.

If long COVID and ME/CFS primarily affected men, that shit would have a 99 cent over-the-counter home test, and a $4.99 OTC cure. And there would be mask mandates everywhere. Bet on it. Most men wouldn't last through a week of this illness.

No good will come from this war.

The U.S. and Israel have further endangered the Iranian people--who are already suffering so much--and it's a foregone conclusion that Iran will retaliate.

More Americans will die.

Iranian state television has announced that the Assembly of Experts has chosen Mojtaba Khamenei as supreme leader after a β€œdecisive vote”.

He's the son of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei who was killed by the US on February 28.

For International Women’s Day, let’s remember that women make up roughly three fourths of everyone w/ post-infectious illnesses like #MyalgicEncephalomyelitis and #LongCovid.

Stanford researchers put the total for those two illnesses at roughly 200,000,000 worldwide.

Still no treatment or cure.

Right?

And we both know that there’s more to the world than the U.S.

But globally, women’s rights and safety remain under attack.

Not a super-great International Women’s Day this year.

a man wearing a fur coat and a headband smiles Alt: Ryan Gosling as Ken in BARBIE wearing a fur coat and headband and happily gesturing with both fists like β€œYeah!”

So much is treacherous right now, but Ryan Gosling can always be counted on to be one of the most entertaining people on earth.

Definitely watch last night’s β€œSNL” if you haven’t already.

Also, as a friend and I have been discussing, we don’t have a functioning FBI now and the DHS has gone full Gestapo.

So, whether Trump seeks terror as a pretext to trample more rights or not, the likelihood of terror on American soil has skyrocketed.

I don’t think Trump is the first rapist to serve in the Oval Office but he’s the first one who got elected (as such) as an adjudicated one.

Hillary and Kamala would’ve made good presidents.

Happy International Women’s Day.

The Kraft Group needs to answer why it won’t fund public safety for the World Cup. There’s no excuse for a billionaire to not ensure safety in a space they own, especially when they can send hundred’s of millions to Israel. This raises serious questions about safety at the games.

The White House put out a series of hype videos about the war. Some have been defending it by saying military members themselves share these kinds of videos.

This is true. But they aren’t the White House. The WH is a bunch of children, and have no sobriety about the serious business of war.

The inmate claimed the whole wing overheard the exchange.

The Miami Herald reports that an inmate told the FBI he heard prison guards discussing the fact that they killed Epstein and were going to cover it up the morning he died.

The female guard below received thousands of dollars of payments in the months before Epstein died.

β€œDuring her third interview … she detailed how she and her mother had received numerous death threats and had twice been run off the road. She said she felt she was being threatened by Epstein and Trump. She said the callers told her β€˜we know where you’re at, you need to keep your mouth shut.’”
