Al Jazeera could've posted this any time since 2016 and it would've been situationally appropriate tbh

The idea that Iran would accept any Pahlavi to rule them is ridiculous to the point of absurdity.

To understand what's happening in Iran today, you have to know about the history of Western intervention in the country.

In the early 1900s, the British secured oil rights in the country until 1993, where they only agreed to pay Iran 16% of the total profits.

This was seen as an unfair deal. 🧡

It’s always β€œwhoops I didn’t know it was a Nazi tattoo” and never β€œI just thought a crescent moon and star looked cool” or β€œI have been a big fan of this trans streamer for years.”

I think the Nazi stuff is enough to be done with Plattner but this is as well

schools are never valid military targets, on or off base

if someone bombed a DoD school in Okinawa and killed a bunch of American 4th graders, that would be a war crime.

The murder of Iranian schoolchildren is a war crime.

Here's a common scam that is going around that you should know about: Sometimes you'll have a cool idea and the DM will say "You can certainly try" Stay alert!

I hope you aren’t drunk and took your staff’s advice, Rashida and I don’t know this man and feel confident he didn’t care about us. Please restrain from drinking too much as you have been warned from your staff and stay off social media when you are drunk. I pray in his holy month you find peace and respect for your self,

The Game Bakers motto, their design philosophy, is simple: β€œWe make games like we cook.”

I've been using slow cooking as a metaphor all week because the urgency culture in the air is wild rn

That's the plan, and to the extent the Trump admin even wanted to help (they don't), they illegally dismantled the mechanisms for it, like USAID.

It would've served our strategic interests greatly for millions of Iranians to see boxes and crates of vital supplies with U.S. flags on them. Oh well.

Whenever a player casts their first spell each turn, they create a Treasure token.

Whenever an artifact an opponent controls is put into a graveyard from the battlefield, this creature deals 1 damage to that player.

hot take: if you're an American, this is not a nuanced issue. you do not need to "listen to Iranian voices" here. you need to tell your leaders to stop bombing a country and killing people. that's literally it.
