Mufti Naomi Wolf has consulted the sacred texts (Google Al Overview) and issued her fatwa

quote tweeting 
Dr. Naomi Wolf @naomirwolf

I asked Al, "Can you wear a crop top for Iftar?" As Rama Duwaji is doing:

Al Overview
It is generally advised not to wear a crop top for Iftar. Ramadan is a time for modesty and respect, requiring covered shoulders and knees. Crop tops, which expose the midriff, are considered too revealing for traditional, public, or family Iftar gatherings. Opt for modest, loose, or flowing, comfortable clothing. 

It is super rude by the way, in observant Muslim norms, for the hostess to reveal her midriff at an Iftar celebration in the presence of men who are not her husband and in the presence of Mahmoud Khalil's wife, who is veiled as is far more religiously customary.

they crave it. bigots are asking to get their ass kicked in increasingly urgent ways and, as a society, we aren’t meeting their emotional needs

The radar installation in Qatar that was destroyed by Iran was a strategic level asset.

You're probably picturing a big radar dish. The AN/FPS-132 is more of a massive, multistory concrete building that looks like a cut pyramid. A major civil engineering project. There was ONE in the Middle East.

I don't know how this will all play out or what happened but I can tell you that what Hegseth is hoping is that you blame "AI" and not a department whose leadership believes that the reason we don't win wars is we care too much about collateral damage.

btw, full credit for this art goes to the shutterstock artist who drew a stylized picture of nyc that inspired me to think “that’s obviously a final fantasy logo.” the rest, as they say, is history

If any news outlets are covering this and want to talk to a trans Genomics PhD who specialized in human genetics and the evolution of sex, please reach out to me

This is complete nonsense scientifically. It's fascist eugenics, not biology

Original version shareholder capitalism started c. 1600 with sharing out ownership of shipping contracts because the insurance cost of transoceanic shipping and absorbing losses is impossible without mass participation. Ship insurance is the foundation of the global economy everything else rides on

Does The New York Times Want to Eradicate Trans People? — Assigned An analysis of its coverage reveals a pattern of misrepresentations, deceptions, distortions, the exclusion of trans voices, and the endorsement of contempt.

The New York Times coverage of trans issues has repeatedly resulted in experts and others complaining that their words were twisted and misrepresented... but only those quoted from on trans supportive side have that complaint.

Coincidence or eliminationism? @billiejsweeney.bsky.social dives in.

voluntarily joined ICE in April 2025 and is proud of her work there. voluntarily became a special AUSA during ICE surge. had a meltdown in court that, while entertaining and confirmed a lot of people's priors, was revealing about her character and abilities, not in a good way. sure, run for office!

Can be a frustrating pill to swallow for folks who were hoping for action on loot boxes etc but it is absolutely the time to side with the more hysterical seeming privacy advocates etc because their hit rate is 120% rn, the state is out to get them and you

My instant response to Heroes III being the best seller isn't "kids are fine with old graphics", it's "strategy games and especially turn based strategy games have a terminally underserved audience".

Again, this is a feature of Tomahawk route planning. Tomahawk doesn’t know where it is unless it makes a number of unique terrain matches over an ingress route that must extend for several hundred kilometers. In 2003 routes over Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Iran were used during strikes on Iraq.

This is a missing piece that I & some retired Marines were trying to figure out when this story broke.

Every tattoo is in their file. New tattoos are updated. This tattoo is strictly prohibited & he absolutely would've known WHY immediately.

He has no plausible deniability, it's all lies.

virtue signaling is good! the culture has been vice signaling since at least 2025 and arguably earlier and things have gotten much worse! people saying they support X cause makes bigots think there might be a penalty in opposing it, that's so much better than demanding only true believers!

I normally think that this kind of thinking is an overrated explanation for these things, but Platner being a popular bartender and possible coke dealer in DC like 10-15 years ago would explain why he gets away with so much.
