Ukraine has sent drone experts and interceptor drones to help defend US military bases in Jordan from Iranian drone attacks.
Washington asked for help last week, and Ukrainian specialists were deployed the very next day. βWe reacted immediately,β Zelensky said.

Big ups to @kenklippenstein.bsky.social for his reporting
House votes 357-65 to block release of congressional sexual misconduct and harassment reports
Jesus fuck.
Except with this kind of transparency, he probably did
De concentration camps. Cuz AI wrecks the brains of those using it
I have a few choices: voting for progressives. Doing nothing. Or violence.
Iβm not gonna do violence. Iβm not gonna do nothing. I canβt leave the country cuz Iβm poor.
Iβm not sure what the point of future conversation is if youβre not even here making real choices anymore.
And it stops here.
That is my ethos.
I understand youβre not of the same conviction, but I do wish you a better life than what this leads to.
Iβd smash one of those broccoli sticks π€€
Youβre aware that We the People are outclassed in arms right?
If we resort to violence, the media they control will narrate the violent suppression of an uprising by the same military might that weβve flailed around in the global south, just in our streets.
Violence always begets violence.
Iβm aware.
Thatβs their choice. Ours is how we address this problem.
Well, like I said: that choice is on you. I fear you will learn that certain parts of the law are very much still operational.
Iβm a veteran, Iβve killed because someone else told me to before. I will never do so again, such a choice weighs the weight of a soul.
(Rocking to and fro). Are there more birds? (Anxious staring)
I did just get my degree in animation so pardon my ignoranceβ¦.but what is SL?
I mean if youβd like to be out in the streets chopping heads off elected officials, thatβs on you.
Yes, I do choose to believe we can better, because else weβre a bit more medieval than I hope.
That choice cuts both ways
The people who are getting out are those with the means. The rest of us are on the Titanic hoping to float to the iceberg.
Iβve said that I support voters running their appointees. Youβre the one recommending doing so via blood.
That would be ideal, however I do not believe using the tools of imperialism to dismantle it is the way.
Thanks for having a bit of a convo btw
As much as that would scratch my schadenfreude itch, there are millions who depend on a semi-functional country and its (broken) systems.
Do you believe weβre at a point where such disruption is preferable?
Like, donβt get me wrong I get it. Dems have been complicit for decades.
Iβm just trying to find a way within the means available to us.
Mmk. Weβre at point A. We wanna be at point B. How do we get there?
We either get leaders with a conscience, or at least people who can be guilted into doing the right thing. Because otherwise theyβre captured by big money ergo Citizens United.
Got any better ideas than throwing our hands up?
Thereβs something comforting about watercolour paintings :)
Is this how theyβre gonna tank the FDIC? (Thatβs in p2025 too)
An unwillingness to murder trans kids by denying them life-saving healthcare is a good sign that these politicians arenβt part of the insane christian fundamentalist group who believe they need a 200 mile river of blood coming out of the Middle East to summon jesus again.
Good. Fuck the child murderers
*** life saving healthcare
Those who deny it are child murderers
Fucking child murderers
1. This morning, Texas AG Ken Paxton just released a chilling new declaration:
Mental health therapists, counselors, and psychologists must cease affirming trans youth - using their name and pronouns - or potentially face child abuse charges and loss of licensure.
Its a horrifying escalation.
From Attorney Moriarty. No less.
Suck it Holmes
