I am in this picture and I don’t like it.
It me
Today in 1980 at 9:32 PM EDT, NORAD and the National Military Command Center convened a Threat Assessment Conference Call because two Soviet ballistic missiles launched from the Kurile Islands appeared headed toward Alaska, Canada, and the tip of Oregon. nsarchive.gwu.edu/document/318...

Let’s be clear:
Trump’s unnecessary, unjust, & unwise war w/Iran builds upon a series of escalating illegal, yet carried out & uncensured by Congress, military actions.
How terrifying to ask what Trump could do next, given recent precedent, if we leave Trump et al Regime in power.
Trump pissing off & destabilizing an entire region by…
*checks notes*
…a poorly planned & aggressive war against Iran (w/Israel) is the sort of thing to be expected given military & congress enabling of Trump’s petty, impulsive, ignorant, MANLY GENDERED, & detached from reality whims.

Ok my mind is blown.
Here’s a fun fact, the facility the US uses to build aircraft carriers was built to build oil tankers.
You can fit more than two aircraft carriers in it.
I am so looking forward to my nap with my CPAP.
Thank you, well put, and me too!
Oh these are good floofs!
😻😻😻CLEANSING THERMONUCLEAR FIRE IS CANCELED FOR THE EARLY MORNING!
LOOOOONG FLOOF AND FLOOFY FLOOF!😻😻😻
Glorious. :)
Oooh boy. I just pissed off a whole bunch of people on threads pointing out that things like a spin on Wuthering Heights or a reimagining of Abe Lincoln's life being published is fan fiction.
Not the most fun no.
And you’re doing so well by them! Thank you!
Bottle babies are special kitties. :)
Like. Big thank you. Kittens need help, you know?
Thank you.
as I look at world in this moment also reminded of this verse from the 5-volume Ming dynasty novel of manners “Plum in the Golden Vase” (trans Roy):
“Though the preceding carriages have overturned by the thousands
The carriages that follow continue to overturn in the same way.”
Every day, amongst the dissociation & surreal mess…
…I am reminded of Terry Pratchett’s “Moving Pictures”:
“Why is it all Mr Dibbler’s films are set against the background of a world gone mad?’ said the dwarf. Soll’s eyes narrowed. ‘Because Mr Dibbler,’ he growled, ‘is a very observant man.’”
Ooooooohhhhhh!!! That would be a good one!
Thank you.
The "forbidden" part always gets me. These are bog standard views among the well-off and coddled. They ain't shy about their bigotry and even the more liberal are pretty indulgent of it.
Like you'll hear the same rancid shit from drunk realtors at city council open comments. Y'all ain't special.
Trump lifting sanctions on Russian oil won't ease sky rocking gas prices in Michigan and across the country. It will, however, help fund Putin's war machine in Ukraine.
As Sen. Chris Coons said this week, the only clear winner in this war with Iran is Russia.
😻😻😻HOME FOR BIG KITTIES!😻😻😻
Thank fuck, lol!
I am now doing the “awake for a while then desperately tired again” thing as we work through the sleep deficit of that past several years I guess?
um have you noticed that everyone who works in extremism research and antifascist organizing is taking note of a surge of antisemitic rhetoric on the left since the attack on iran
Trump finally admitted Russia was providing'a little help' to Iran yesterday. Sounds like more than a little.
To combat bird flu spread, other countries have authorized poultry vaccines.
The U.S. hasn’t, amid political and economic pushback.
Without a vaccine, experts say the virus poses an escalating threat: “The minute it transmits to humans, it’s done.”
