I’m voting for the candidate who promises to imprison everyone who makes money insider trading on war.

Your opposition to war can just be that war is evil. it doesn’t have to be more complicated than that.

A United States senator from the president's own party, one who serves on the Select Committee on Intelligence and the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations, has no idea what's going on as America goes to war with Iran.

Picture of Marjane Satrapi alongside a quote from her. The quote reads:

The world is not divided into countries. The world is not divided between East and West. You are American, I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk together and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you.

And our governments are very much the same...

- Marjane Satrapi, Iranian-French graphic novelist

Thinking about this quote from Persepolis creator Marjane Satrapi again.

Don't worry, Pete Hegseth will be out to assure us that these schoolgirls were actually deadly fentanyl smugglers and Trump just saved the lives of eleventy billion Americans by murdering them.

if the media had any integrity β€” and it doesn’t anymore β€” they’d be pointing out on a loop that Obama made a deal with Iran, Trump cancelled it because Obama is Black, and then Trump started a war on the pretense there is no deal

We had a deal with Iran to ensure limits on its nuclear capacities. Trump ended that deal. Now he says that sending our young people off to fight and potentially lose their lives for this country is just a β€˜cost of war.’ This is the cost of his broken promises. No war with Iran.

It’s the least important thing, but I can’t believe our pedophile president just declared an illegal war at 3am in this fuckass hat.

Something I think about a lot…

Prince & The Revolution were probably at their absolute peak as a live band at the end. When you see footage or hear audio of the Parade/Hit & Run Tour between March and September 1986 they had maxed out all their stats & exhausted all their DLC content options.
