Pete Hegseth. Sec Def and giant baby. Banning photographers for "unflattering" photos? That is a Trump sized ego right there.

Excuse me ☝️ Wasn't Iran the country who was attacked? Shouldn't the U.S. and Israel be the ones excluded from the World Cup?

Despite identifying as a political activist, I am light on political theory. The idea of "Giant Congress" described in the accompanying link does seem like it would largely address many if not most of the problems with the U.S. Congress.
Thanks in advance for any feedback.
Dear Every Coffee Shop Everywhere,
I'm sorry but if you don't have free wifi then I'm not coming back. And, no, xfinitywifi isn't free for customers.
Sent from a Java House in Zionsville, Indiana which has excellent coffee and I'll never come back.

The taboo to not talk about politics is THE SAME THING as HR telling you to not discuss salary. It only advantages the people in charge.
Talk politics.
Talk salaries.
Blow up the system.
"Americans must sacrifice to defeat Iran. It's our duty to protect Israel despite the cost to ourselves, our children and our nation"

F*CK you b*tch!
The terrifying state of life in 2026. This is a real chat interaction I just had:
Them: God save us all
Me: What now? Have nukes dropped yet?
That is 2026. A world where I type out "Have nukes dropped yet" without even blinking as I write code in a coffee shop.
It would be great if that happened but don't forget that we don't just burn oil. It is also the feedstock for the entire chemicals industry.
"Traffic through the Strait of Hormuz has ground to a virtual halt, unleashing the most severe energy crisis since the 1970s and threatening the global economy"
Are we great yet ?

This is why Buffet's "giving pledge" is bullshit.
"Zuckerberg, who recently directed his philanthropy to devote itself entirely to advancing ways to extend life. "
That's not philanthropy-- it is self preservation.
#NoBillionaires - all wealth and assets over 1 billion should be nationalized
We don’t need talkers right now. We need fighters.
And no matter how many times they knock me down, I’ll get back up and fight with you. Every. Single. Time.
BREAKING: The US has bombed Tehran’s main refinery and burning oil is now flooding down the streets into the city’s sewers.
This is a vision from hell, unleashed by the US tonight.
(🎥 Vahid Online)
The war on Iran is unfolding alongside a wave of mass layoffs in the US. These are not separate crises. They are two sides of the same offensive by the ruling class against the working class.
Iran’s people were facing a horrible shortage of water before the war began. If we are destroying desalination plants and setting fire to Teheran we are committing unfathomable crimes.
This is *nothing* dignified about wearing a cheap baseball cap that promotes yourself to the otherwise solemn ceremony to receive the bodies of the troops you had killed to distract from your bad economy and rampant pedophilia.
Gas - 2.94 / gallon on Sunday. 3.49 on Friday. Thanks Trump!!!
That's 1/4 of the planet if you think about the numbers simply but only 5 billion people fall into general work age range (18 - 65) so that's 40% of the planet have no employment stability.
DHS nominee Markwayne Mullin is one of the most active stock-traders in the Senate — and violated the STOCK Act against insider trading as recently as last August.
He currently holds stock in L3Harris, which has millions in contracts with ICE and FEMA.
The grift continues.
🤢🤮🤬
If you ever wondered how Trump subverted a traditional republican like Marco Rubio-- this was it -- promising him Cuba. Rubio getting Cuba makes him a hero to the Miami Cuban republicans which easily translates toward being re-elected forever.

I'm deeply sorry for our service members but the real tragedy is the war itself.
If you care about the Internet, be afraid of this -- it has bipartisan support for banishing Internet anonymity. And keep in mind that non anonymous users are more valuable to Google, Facebook, etc so it likely has big money backing it.

Anyone want to wager on when $4 gas shows up in the U.S.? My bet is by end of May.
