#BREAKING: Israel just bombed right next to the ancient temple of Baalbek, a UNESCO listed site in Lebanon’s Bekaa valley

When ISIS bombed Roman temples in Palmyra, Syria, the west launched an international coalition that send them fleeing to the ends of the Earth

I usually just go with “what is wrong with you?”

Thanks to AI, we’ve finally been able to remove all the cracks in Otis Redding’s voice on I’ve Been Loving You Too Long

Something that always surprises me is seeing a well known woman indie singer live and her band is all bored looking white guys

in case you've never seen it, this is Roger Ebert on The Mummy

I didn’t notice the account name and took me a second to figure out what it could possibly be trying to say

“They are wasting their time. Khamenei’s son is a lightweight. I have to be involved in the appointment, like with Delcy [Rodríguez] in Venezuela.” It will be done in ancestral Trump fashion, via swimsuit competition in an indoor/outdoor pavilion at a resort.

It’s bothering me I can’t decipher what her intention is here. It sounds like a lazy late night dig at Trump’s shallowness and incompetence, but she spends the rest of the paragraph praising him?

do yourself a favor folks, if you're 26 or younger, make a plan to dodge the draft. it's not making the problem about you -- the child you don't go overseas to kill will thank you for it in fact. and if it doesn't come to pass, better to have a plan and not need it than need it and not have it

oh sure but when the mom dies in the opening 5 minutes of every film that's fine and I don't need to pry my shrieking child out of the AMC bathroom stall

Though it is day, the sun cannot be seen in Tehran today because of all the smoke following the US and Israel bombing Tehran's oil refineries. People on the ground describe it as armageddon. History will not forgive Reza Pahlavi, Masih Alinejad, Nazanin Boniadi, and all other "leaders" who tricked Iranians into thinking this war would set them free.

Oh my god: this is *daytime* in Tehran.

Google forced Gemini onto it like 10 months ago and it still can’t remember what “turn on the lights” means

Every time asking my Google home to turn on the lights or turn up its volume requires me to restate the question in several ways and answer follow up questions I remember the guy who already thought it was an intelligent and conscious being like 5 years ago.

Report: Democrats’ internal review finds Harris lost votes in 2024 over Gaza stance Unreleased audit said to show US presidential candidate's position alongside Biden led to 'net negative' in White House run; DNC shared results with pro-Palestinian IMEU Policy Project

Also, the DNC and Kamala both attribute the administration’s response to Palestine as contributing to her loss, so sounds like they disagree it’s all voters’ fault. Maybe next time they can have a single Muslim voice at the convention.

Considering you’re talking about staying at home, I can say as someone who worked as an organizer on Hillary’s campaign that part of campaigning is helping people acquire absentee ballots, find their polling places, and organizing rides the polls in addition to reminding and motivating them to go.

Straight up saying it’s not their responsibility to lead or inspire is really doubling down on loser mentality

So according to the WSJ a US Senator conspired with another country to manipulate the US into starting a war, am I getting this right

It is still happening. No country is stepping in. Cuba has helped so many movements and people around the world and they are being abandoned to die

The asymmetry of the value placed on human life is so striking. Israel has a goal to recover 40-year-old remains; to do so, it invades a sovereign country, and the lives of 26 Lebanese are an afterthought. Their names not even worth printing in the New York Times.

Do any of them cohabitate in the ball or are they just loners?

As an unwilling connoisseur of agitprop, Iran really hit it out of the park with "we're fighting the Epstein Class that either rapes children or kills them"

Pro tip. Go to bed early to miss all the drama.

You gotta hand it to Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris: they were the only two people who predicted that Donald Trump would be bad

Being 38 and having grown up in chat rooms and on forums as a dipshit teen I really don’t get the obsession with mods anymore.

The main identity here anyway is white. If you’re Chinese, Israel will outlaw you from romantic relationships with Israeli Jews. If you’re African, they’ll put you in a camp. If you’re brown, they’ll just kill you regardless.

You understand that every galaxy brain dumb guy racist acts like they came up with this asinine take to excuse their interest in seeing brown people slaughtered

The Brent oil price is about to hit $90 per barrel and this is why: on any normal day, there's 60 oil tankers going in and out of the Straits of Hormuz. That number is zero at the moment and will be really hard to get back up. This is a massive shock...
