Straight of Hormuz, with Buddha imposed, text: The realization that the lack of oil isn't causing your suffering, but the desire for oil itself, on your path to enlightenment.

Possible solution to the Strait of Hormuz?

Any time I don’t see the parenthetical on a headline about a movie, I assume it’s secretly Star Wars. Boogie Nights takes place in the Star Wars universe. Taxi Driver? Star Wars. Pepe Le Moko? Star Wars.

it’s weird how there isn’t a single cool right-handed person

I have this edition of No Exit

woman in the dunes???.what, is this about Rebecca Ferguson??

Abstention is a vote for trump, voting for Harris but not doing so enthusiastically is a vote for Trump, criticizing the Dems "hide and cry" strategy a year after the election is a vote for Trump, acknowledging poor people exist is a vote for Trump, Baltimore backing out of the Crosby trade is a vot

Wow I can really see why it’s so important to stay on twitter

A photo of the Chicago skyline at night with a tangle of bright lighting lignite gap the night sky during a thunderstorm

Boom! Had a great ight show over the skyline tonight. Here’s my first big lightning shot of the season.

This is a 2-frame composite. Best as I can tell, two large, branching bolts struck the eastern antenna mast of the Hancock. #wxsky #ilwx

I gotta say this war has led me to believe that 95% of military spending in the US just goes to defense contractor shareholders and nothing else. Like what do you mean the US just decommissioned its only mine defusing boats in the gulf and there’s no replacements?

Darkness Lord @sabatonfan69 My dealer: got some straight gas 🔥😛 this strain is called "the fall of Rome" 😳 you'll be zonked out of your gourd 💯 Me: yeah whatever. I don't feel shit. 5 minutes later: dude I swear I just saw some Gauls in the forest My buddy Phillip pacing: the senate is lying to us 5:07 PM • 3/8/23

Long-time buddies Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols were out for a pleasant van drive in Oklahoma when, all of a sudden, their lives would change.

Hasbro’s CEO on J.K. Rowling. We just published our new Decoder interview with Chris Cocks, the head of Hasbro. I asked him directly about how he thinks about author J.K. Rowling’s politics and what it’s done to the Harry Potter f...

cannot stress enough that "separate the art from the artist" was meant for private individuals reconciling the art they love with its flawed creators and not meant for the ceo of a company driving a dump truck of money up to a bigot's front porch

Holy lord, Roman Anthony with a moonshot

Images published by Iranian state media show remnants of a US Tomahawk missile at a girls’ school in Minab.
It’s not possible to independently verify the provenance of the remnants from this imagery alone. But Bellingcat previously detailed how a Tomahawk missile hit a structure next to the school.

Easy. Gotta go back and analyze data from when albums came out on Tuesdays.

It’s time for another Frank Miller renaissance

One of the Worst War Crimes in U.S. history? Murdered were Ehsan Saleminia, age 6; Fatemeh Zahra Karimi, 7; Zeynab Bahrami, 10; Mohammad Shah-dousti, 8; Reza Barani, 7; Athena Ahmadzadeh, 10; Khadijeh Darvishi, 9; Reza Ranjbar, 6; Mohammad-Ali Karyani Pak, 7; Parsa Mokhtari-nasab, 12—& dozens more.

Yeah I think that’s fair. It seems like there have been a few interesting roads that could have opened up based on zeitgeist-y things—Raimi’s Spider-Man, Lord of the Rings and maybe Sin City?— but all the ripoffs turned out pretty bland at best

we haben een serious problem...boot niet voor me!!!!

And not just constituents. Other politicians who make your constituents look rational and calm. Chilling.

The constituency of Americans who see DEI as detrimental to the country is vanishingly small, the sort of constituency that can easily be ignored if politicians want to ignore it.

Collective punishment. Just directly trying to eradicate the civilian residents of Tehran. Ghastly.

See this is why we should have sent George bush to the fucking Hague

This leads me to ask; "What is the "important role in National Security" for AI if it isn't compiling data on dissidents ala Palantir?

Because between that and autonomous weapons programs; That's 99% of the use cases.

Are they just hoping some more use cases will just APPEAR?
