yes but I guarantee you those batteries in Kuwait weren’t manned by Kuwaitis

I'm rambling. We aren't cooked because there's a war, and we're not gonna be ok because it will eventually end. We're cooked because we don't read, there's nothing but the spectacle, the only choices on the table are speed and more speed, we don't read, we're in the CoD lobby.

As an addendum I think the international response to this will also include a lot more irregular warfare and what we broadly construe as “terrorism,” which will also make wealthy nations supercharge their own domestic surveillance states and repressive capabilities. A disaster for everyone

this is more or less gunboat diplomacy but in a world with a much wider array of (literal) weapons of the weak

the response I'd guess would be

1) a rush to nukes if possible
2) developing capacity for assassination strikes against wealthy nations

seems bad imo. was a reason for the norms.

One of my favourite sides of politics/media.

one fascinating thing about modern culture is that international militias now do promo trailers to announce their aims

That's one way to find out that the US and Israel might have had slightly different war aims post-Khamenei, I guess.

The Trump Administration is Testing Conversion Therapy By Medically Experimenting on Trans People in Prisons The Bureau of Prisons is subjecting trans people to conversion therapy and denying them care with the goal of helping them "recover." It's trying to prove dangerous conversion practices can work.

Under a new policy released Thursday, the Trump Administration will test conversion therapy on trans people in prisons. It explicitly states that it aims to help trans people “recover,” all the while forcibly detransitioning them both medically and socially.

The thing is: surveys show that Mamdani's skepticism of attacking Iran is very much the mainstream view. Weiss complains about mainstream media elites not representing the broader public view, but she is clearly indicating she does not want all views represented.

Nancy by Ernie Bushmiller. First panel, Nancy talking to a logger sawing a tree and pointing to a carved piece of trunk. Nancy: Can I have that piece? My boy friend carved it. Logger: Sure. Second panel, Nancy is watching the log burn in the fire place. Nancy: I'm mad at him.

Every once in awhile I think about this Nancy comic and it makes me laugh every single time. Absolute perfection.
