@ghostwarrior.bsky.social dude I love you but please don't @ me all the time - it messes with my reaction timeline

5/ And on the Strait of Hormuz, they had NO PLAN. I can't go into more detail about how Iran gums up the Strait, but suffice it say, right now, they don't know how to get it safely back open.
Which is unforgiveable, because this part of the disaster was 100% foreseeable.
Before you rush off to buy your tix to PR, please educate yourself a bit. You can read my book (Making Never-Never Land: Race and Law in the Creation of PR) & my homie's @jmelendezbadillo.bsky.social (PR: A National History) & many others, just do your homework.

A MAGA post claimed utility-scale solar kills too many birds. Research shows large scale solar kills 0.1% of the birds killed by fossil-fuel power plants. If that triples as this article suggests it is 0.3% of the birds killed by fossil-fuel power plants.
Do the math.

We're spending $1 billion per day on war as millions of working people struggle to get by.
Meanwhile, America's ultra-rich have never been richer.
KPMG:
Our “Scenario 2” shows the conflict “extending for three to six months .. Oil prices temporarily surge above $130 per barrel until the Strait of Hormuz is fully reopened. Prices do not return to pre-conflict levels until late 2026/early 2027.”

For those wanting to know more about Iran and voices from inside the country (rather than the fash-y monarchists outside), Naghmeh Sohrabi has been translating pieces from folks inside on her blog:

Legendary radio host Thom Hartmann spoke to me about Trump wants a new 9/11 to help him stay in power. The Iran war is the perfect why to incite such an attack youtu.be/Jx6EGTmIN-w?...
“Reading as grunt work” is so stupid. I got my dissertation+first book idea from a random anecdote in an Ottoman chronicle that my advisor told me to read for language practice. And every idea I’ve had since then has come from something I accidentally encountered while reading for another goal.

Climate change impacts on the Antarctic Peninsula have global consequences. Great write up of our research in EOS.

The fact that a Koch Brothers-funded front group is attacking @peterhotezmdphd.bsky.social and me over our book #ScienceUnderSiege (bookshop.org/p/books/scie...) is such an amusing, unintentional affirmation of what we have to say about who is behind the right-wing war on science!
A photo of Center for Security Policy director and senior analyst for homeland security and counterterrorism Kyle Shideler testifying at a Senate Judiciary Subcommittee hearing on Oct. 28, 2025, in Washington, overlaid with the headline, "Islamophobic Think Tank Helped Write Indictment Against ICE Protesters."
The courtroom testimony provided a window into the extraordinarily close cooperation between federal prosecutors and a Washington advocacy group that has regularly argued for government action against left-wing activists. theintercept.com/2026/03/09/p...

Amid Israel’s bombardment of Lebanon, Joumana Asseily temporarily closed the doors of her Beirut gallery, Marfa’ Projects. Speaking with Hyperallergic, she described the attacks on her city as “incomprehensible.”
This is just astonishingly great reporting.
All of the crises the White House has claimed over the last 14 months were planned in advance. All of them.
And however much contempt you have for media outlets who reverently relayed Trump's claim to have no relation to Project 2025, it isn't enough.
Come listen to some brilliant people associated with Timep. For my part I will be ranting about how we live in a dystopian hellscape
To some degree the administration is now along for the ride in this war it started on Iran.
Israel seems to have a clearer desired end state—Iranian state collapse—than the US.
The question is when POTUS has had enough and decides he wants off the ride.
