We already won the war, we're winning the war, we will win the war. We will have been winning the war.

Other countries are sending forces to help us, they will send forces to help us, they should send forces to help us but aren't, they would be sending forces to help us but aren't being allowed to.

After days of conflicting messaging from the White House on how much longer it will continue to wage war on Iran, Trump alleged that US strikes had "totally demolished" most of Kharg Island, and told the network that its military may hit site "a few more times just for fun"

I know it’s apparently only salient to most American media outlets to talk about oil, but for the few remaining people left with a soul, thousands of people live on this tiny island in only 8 sq miles. This reads like a serial killer prison interview.

If you’re not aware, it was reported last week that Trump is so enamoured with discount shoe brand Florsheim, that he’s bought pairs for every man on his staff, even going so far as to eyeball their shoe size and dispatch them to their new owners, unfitted. Said staff are now reportedly so terrified of offending him, that they constantly wear these cheap, ill-fitting shoes any time they’re in his presence. There followed a bewildering series of photos; of Trump flanked by flunkies parading their identical shiny brogues; of staffers posing, feet facing camera, with thumbs-up from their boss; of Secretary of State Marco Rubio – one of the most powerful man on the planet – making the case for Trump’s region-destabilising war in Iran while wearing shoes at least two sizes too big.
I suppose it was the sheer, petty oddness of this story that made it clear to me that sense will not help us here. The thousandth reminder that we are not witness to the actions of a merely eccentric or unpredictable administration, but the abject and absurd demands of a Mad King. The things that make Trump grotesque are not his personal peccadilloes, but his political actions. The craven self-enrichment he’s pursued through scams large and small, his administration’s gutter-level racism, its constant assaults on personal dignity and free speech, the imprisonment and torture of thousands of people by Ice, the cutting of every government department to the bone, the arguably genocidal annihilation of international aid, the actually genocidal backing of Israel’s war in Gaza, and their current pursuit of a war in Iran that risks killing tens of thousands of people, while destroying the global economy and what used to be called the rules-based international order.
As such, focusing on Trump’s surface-level weirdness might seem like an unearned holiday from considering his more pressing evils. It’s just that I’d argue that these are all connected, and always have been. That Trump’s actions and his demeanour are one and the same. That his are the politics of a braying, small-minded simpleton, enacted by a man who simply can’t pretend to be anything else. That a man with a toddler’s approach to truth, object permanence, and the value and complexity of other people’s lives, is not someone who should be entrusted with access to a website for discount shoes, let alone the largest military arsenal the world has ever seen.

Family of Fallen Airman Rages at Trump’s ‘Uncalled For’ War While Trump was golfing, families were mourning.

The Simmons family encouraged the public to take their grief to the ballot box.

“Our hearts are saddened beyond measure to learn of 6 more airmen being killed last night. One of them is our Beloved Tyler Simmons…His parents, grandparents, family and friends are grief stricken for the loss of life.”

“the image of more burning tankers would make the Iranians look more powerful than they really are”

“the image of more burning tankers would make the Iranians look more powerful than they really are”

The ability to shut down the Strait of Hormuz by attacking tankers means Iran actually still is powerful; that’s not the mere illusion of power

Kansas revoked 1,700 transgender drivers' licenses. Some are leaving the state. The state's move to retroactively cancel licenses and birth certificates is part of a nationwide escalation of restrictions on the legal recognition of transgender people.

Sinners deserves Best Cinematographer simply for the fact that it's a modern movie where you can tell what's going on during all the night scenes

"Our Bodies, Ourselves" was so important to me at 19 because it was a crucial source of honest and open information about bodies, lives, and experience in a time when such information was otherwise almost impossible to come by.

"The announcement comes as more than 20,000 sick and wounded Palestinians, among them roughly 4,000 cancer patients and 4,500 children, remain on waiting lists for medical treatment unavailable in Gaza.

Of those, nearly 440 cases are classified as immediately life-threatening."

People on awards shows don't "make it political." The world is political. Our lives are political. Our choices are political. The only decision is whether to acknowledge it.
