Remember what I said about how, when Trump is flailing, they start inserting a fake, fictional Trump into their stories, who is acting rationally and sanely?

the weirdest thing in the world is the US press and the media tour they organise every time a rich person threatens to leaves a state, especially because in 99% of cases it isn't even a biz being moved, just some wealthy asshole who pays about 4 bucks a year in taxes and squats on a public beach

My neighbour told me Kuwaiti air defence keeps eating his F-15s so I asked how many F-15s he had and he told me he just goes and gets another F-15 so I said it sounds like he's just feeding F-15s to Kuwaiti air defence and then his daughter started crying

Because i was mildly positive about liking turtles and sad that my prerelease was small, and that I told people not to waste my time shitting on ub in my mentions. And they took that to mean my entire life and wellbeing were tied to this set

Cause my favorite turtle is double striking raph, my favorite card is mutagen man

Card that is a turtle or card that is in turtles?

Be mad if you need to but I basically got every card I wanted over the weekend so my entire interest in the set is accomplished.

It is so fucking weird that folks on the other site are trying to taunt me about tmnt. Motherfucker I don't work for wotc, I didnt make the set, and it already exists! If it fails financially that is literally not my problem, and indeed probably to my benefit. I have no investment here.

I was radicalized by a kind elderly Presbyterian minister in a brightly colored cardigan who played with puppets and told me that people could like me exactly as I am and that everyone is different and that's great and we should like them exactly as THEY are.

Falling down a Fred Rogers rabbit hole at the moment, and dang if this isn't some "fundamental human dignity and self respect" delivered in a calm soothing tone and child appropriate language.

Today, US & Israeli forces bombed the Gandhi Children’s Hospital in Iran’s capital of Tehran.

Nurses supposedly risked their lives carrying newborns to safety from the rubble.

I’m having trouble finding more reporting about this, but here is at least a blurb from Reuters:
