I was in a 2 hour briefing today on the Iran War. All the briefings are closed, because Trump can't defend this war in public.
I obviously can't disclose classified info, but you deserve to know how incoherent and incomplete these war plans are.
1/ Here's what I can share:
how do you not do this before launching a war on iran
Managed to capture the perfect Mina mlem.

This political programming is interrupted to announce that Maude is the perfect creature.
I don't want the rewards card. I don't have an account. I don't want to sign up. I don't want the monthly newsletter. I don't want the in-store credit card. I don't want to hear about the benefits. I don't want the receipt mailed to me.
Just ring up my laundry detergent and let me leave.
If you’re roughly my age, it’s wild to reflect on the optimism for the future Americans felt when Obama was elected — young Americans spontaneously took to the streets to celebrate! — and contrast with what we face today. The falloff over the past 18 years is hard to process.
I used a MiniFreak and Fragments for the melody, a second MiniFreak for the bass, and Drumazon 2 for drums.
This little sequence turned out okay. Bummer that the screen capture didn't record the VST GUIs (see first comment). #music
Starting wars to generate subject matter for your Hat Store should never be done.

Action shots from Harvest Dusk, a crisis communications exercise I developed and executed for Adams County, Colorado (with Cory Williamsen and CSU student/intern Addie Browne).
Before today, no F-15 had been shot down in more than 35 years — since January 19, 1991, during the Persian Gulf War.

Fetishized vs Strategic Dominance. In the former, they take out the leader because it's all about hyper-masculine American concepts of power and destruction. The latter waits and uses internal disruption to push advantage, and Trump isn't, and his court jesters can't be, patient and smart.
U.S. Central Command officials announced Sunday that three U.S. service members were killed in action during combat operations.

I think about this tweet every time I feel something online start to curl its annoying little grip into my head
FBI Director Kash Patel's new official government photo just dropped.
Conservatives spent years complaining about ”safe-spaces” and “liberal snowflakes” only to turn around and show they are absolutely terrified of ideas they don’t like (“racism is bad” “gender is fluid”) and willing to use state power to avoid the slightest discomfort.
The snowiest of flakes.
A new paper shows that less than 2 months of exposure to Twitter’s algorithmic feed significantly shifts people’s political views to the right.
Moving from chronological feed to the algorithmic feed also increases engagement.
This is one of the most concerning papers I’ve read in awhile.
BREAKING: PlayStation is shutting down Bluepoint Games, the studio responsible for modern remakes of classic games such as Demon's Souls and Shadow of the Colossus, Bloomberg News has learned.
A shocking end for a well-respected studio.

Why hasn’t anyone ever made a truly excellent movie about Studio 54?
