The type of clip you see presented as an evidence at war crime trials.

Time is a flat circle

U.S. Military Joins Drug War in Ecuador: “It Wasn’t Going to Be Just Boat Strikes Forever” Two government officials told The Intercept that the joint U.S.–Ecuador military action won’t just be a one-off raid.

The US under 'antiwar' Trump has now also launched military operations in Ecuador too:

Yup, we fucking bombed the first-aid clinic set up in the immediate aftermath of the first bombing.

Probably not going to get the traction it deserves but it’s insane 1. Stephen Miller is giving dod press conferences and 2. explicitly saying the us policy towards the irgc will be war crimes

Trump unleashed: President bullish on Iran, eyeing regime change in Cuba and impatient with Ukraine The president told POLITICO that “Cuba’s going to fall,” revealed his growing frustration with Ukraine and discussed the uncertain search for a new leader of Iran.

EXCLUSIVE: In an interview, Trump dismissed concerns about the Iran war and said the U.S. would help choose its next leader.

“Cuba’s going to fall, too," he told us.

“We cut off all oil, all money, or we cut off everything coming in from Venezuela, which was the sole source."

CENTCOM pitches a short, glorious war to the president to get its revenge. (2026, colorized)

i really don't think Hegseth realized the diplomatic consequences of that strike

"Do not forget it, i can remove you from this transaction" goes so hard

If you can substitute "hungry ghost trapped in a jar" for "AI" in a sentence it's probably a valid use case for LLMs. Take "I have a bunch of hungry ghosts in jars, they mainly write SQL queries for me". Sure. Reasonable use case.

"My girlfriend is a hungry ghost I trapped in a jar"? No. Deranged.

I love games and so many of the people who make them. It was an honor to accept the award on behalf of the team and a privilege to be able to speak to what I believe in. ♥️

“Almost all the 165 people killed in the attack were girls aged between seven and 12, according to local officials. There were around 170 girls at the school in southern Iran’s Minab at the time.“

A double-tap strike on little girls at school.

this can't be allowed to be a consumer grade product going forward. its too much like doing the really fun drugs, there's no way to know beforehand who is gonna be able to act normal with it and who will instantly be struck insane and end up dead in a ditch somewhere

Text screenshot: "Weinstein added that the MRFF receives similar complaints about Christian eschatology — end-of-the-world theology — “whenever this shit blows up with Israel in the Middle East.” After the Oct. 7, 2023, Hamas attack on Israel, for instance, the MRFF reported a complaint about an Air Force commander who said at a briefing that, “[T]he war between Israel and Hamas has all been foretold by the Book of Revelation in the Gospel of Jesus Christ and no-one can do anything about that.”

People also keep missing that the original report explicitly said they got similar reports every time there's American adventurism in the Middle East.

I don’t want to share the video because it’s pretty graphic, but apparently we’re at the ‘Republican Senator breaks the arm of a Marine IN FULL DRESS because that marine was protesting the Republicans starting a war of choice with Iran’ stage of things.

One of my favorite parts of last night’s election results.

The only Democratic talking point should be: we don’t abandon anyone.

Tapping the sign but two things both true at once: (1) LLMs can do lots of genuinely cool and useful things; (2) most of the things people are currently using LLMs for in practice are unbelievably dumb and/or corrosive to society

Having suffered the pain of a tooth infection I can unequivocally say that this man died in absolute agony. The type of nerve pain that will have you screaming and wondering quite rightly if you’ve gone insane

This man was tortured through neglect, and everyone involved is an irredeemable monster

if you don’t buy an incredibly stylish off-the-wall narrative game for $5 what are you doing

Pokémon Red & Green sold poorly in Japan when they launched in 1996, only catching on months later. Apples and oranges, I know, but this is indicative of the shift in how execs at game publishers, streaming services, and Hollywood studios need instant results or they pull the plug. It's unhealthy.

Glad people are settling on the term "pervert glasses". Bonus points if you also say it while posting a picture of Mark Zuckerberg or call them Mark Zuckerberg's pervert glasses.

This is, casually, one of the best books you could buy about game narrative (yes I have an essay in it)

anyway, if you’re even remotely curious about what an inclusive, progressive christianity that includes people like both talerico and crockett, as well as a rich, global history stretching back across nations, ethnicities, genders, and creeds, run don’t walk to @sojo.net.

you don’t like christianity, fine, makes sense, don’t sign up. but a progressive movement without religious tolerance is (a) going to get its ass kicked in every single election—city, state, and national—from now until the country mercifully sinks beneath the glacial melt and (b) not progressive.

Trump is breaking shit he cannot un-break, no matter how hard he tries to backpedal or shift blame.

hello. please look at this incredible list of authors whose craft advice you can get for less than $20. I’m in this and still completely amazed by how good the quality is

Keeping ICE in existence and “reforming” it is an extremist position that does not enjoy the support of the people.

We also just murdered this guy’s parents, his wife, and his son so good luck getting a peace deal
