“mutilization”

in my lifetime, U.S. foreign policy has been maximally immoral and incompetent and yet the way this administration has found new and shittier depths to sink to compared to all the cretins who came before is honestly their most impressive achievement

“They want to talk. I said, ‘Too late.’” To the extent there is a plan, it seems to be carnage.

Ah yes, nothing says sovereignty like an outside power having a permanent veto over the selection.

Is it so wrong in these god-forsaken days to want a grandfatherly audiobook reader who is not a professional voice actor, just an old guy who loves reading stories?

I think about this Tony Benn speech much more than I used to

the reality is that for many many people in the US, Iran is an idea––a comic book villain that has been integral to our national storytelling project for decades––rather than a country where almost 100 million people live. people with hopes, dreams, and complex lives just like ours. fucking hell💔

our government combines the impulse control of pete hegseth, the intellectual rigor of rfk jr, and the attention span of donald trump with elon musk’s signature sense of humor

Yes Sir we have launched the Preventative strikes to Prevent War

The phrase “preemptive strike” is as insulting as when we were sold “humanitarian pauses” in the middle of a live-streamed genocide. The powerful looking you straight in the face and telling you your common sense simply doesn’t matter.

They are being absolutely spammed on socials by Russian fans about Gumenik but also Adeliia. I could see them doing it to appease that segment of their constituency.

It’s giving middle passage

There's three votes for anything on the supreme court. If trump said "I'm the god-king of arrakis" he'd get three votes and a lengthy opinion about the long history and tradition of english common law with regards to the spice melange

Here's another angle from the AP's Stephanie Scarbrough. Just so much joy and sportsmanship.

I don’t think she thinks about Eteri at all. And that’s the ultimate victory.
