Oman's weak Sultan sends groveling
CONGRATULATIONS to Iran's new puppet Mojtaba - next day Iran's drones BLOW UP his oil tanks, total disaster - that's what happens when you kiss terrorists' asses instead of being STRONG like ME, SAD!

FBI warns Iran aspired to attack California with drones in retaliation for war: Alert The warning came in a bulletin that was reviewed by ABC News.

The FBI thinks you are fucking stupid. Iran has zero capability to cross the Pacific and sea-launch a drone attack on California. This is too fucking dumb for me to comment on further.

It is somewhere between deeply amusing and blackly terrifying that Iran's shocking hardline ceasefire conditions which have everyone spinning into a "WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE" frenzy are just like, "fuck off and obey the law."

A Mississippi death penalty jury was seated. With one BlackΒ juror. The U.S. Supreme Court will hear an appeal this month from death row inmate Terry Pitchford who was denied relief by the Mississippi Supreme Court after his attorneys claimed Black people were illegally struck from his jury. A Mississippi Today analysis finds that over the last decade the state's highest court hasn’t provided relief in a single such claim, allowing prosecutors’ strikes of Black prospective jurors to stand in every case it has considered.

Iran cannot participate in the 2026 World Cup after the United States killed their leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, the sports minister, Ahmad Donyamali, said on Wednesday.

The United States and Israel launched airstrikes on Iran nearly two weeks ago, killing the Islamic Republic’s supreme leader, leading to a region-wide conflict in the Gulf.

β€œConsidering that this corrupt regime [the US] has assassinated our leader, under no circumstances can we participate in the World Cup,” the minister told state television. β€œOur children are not safe and, fundamentally, such conditions for participation do not exist.

β€œGiven the malicious actions they have carried out against Iran, they have forced two wars on us over eight or nine months and have killed and martyred thousands of our people. Therefore, we certainly cannot have such a presence.”

Iran will not participate in the men’s World Cup.

I think this story is a really good example for people to look at when it comes to understanding bias at NYT. It's not that the reporter, Dana Rubinstein, says anything outright false. But the framing, word choices, etc., add up to an unprofessional and biased account.

Voters hold negative views of Al. In fact, the only topics less popular in the survey were the Democratic Party and Iran.

And even if it's true, most people are closeted because they have to be in our incredibly queerphobic society, not because they're mass murderers.

He's not a warmonger because he's closeted. He's a warmonger because he chooses to be a fascist racist piece of shit.

Unpopular opinion: I legitimately despise the "Lindsey Graham is a self hating closeted gay/trans person" takes.

It blames an already marginalized group for the actions of a cishet white man with enormous privilege and plays into a right wing narrative of queer people being violent.

Mamdani Chooses His Words Carefully After Alleged Terror Attack

One day the NYT's editors will read these stories again and be ashamed of themselves. Mamdani called the attack "heinous," "criminal," "reprehensible," "terrorism," and "the antithesis of who we are." The insinuation that he's conflicted about this is disgraceful. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/09/n...

How Israeli feminism is used to justify genocidal wars Female fighter pilots are now being celebrated for their role in destroying Iran, while women in Gaza struggle to survive

This is the inevitable result of enshrining identity as the cornerstone of neoliberal politics. This is what capitalists and imperialists would present to you as progress.

A reminder that when Christian Zionists and Christian Nationalists in the West talk about Christians, they are not talking about the Christians of the same holy land that Jesus himself came from. They don't give a shit about us.

The way we see the world shapes the way we treat it.
If a mountain is a deity, not a pile of ore.. if a forest is a sacred grove, not timber; if other species are biological kin, not resources; or if the planet is our mother, not an opportunity - then we will treat each other with greater respect. Thus is the challenge, to look at the world from a different perspective.
- David Suzuki

Reporter: You just suggested that Iran somehow got its hands on a tomahawk and bombed its own elementary school on the first day of the war. But you're the only person in your government saying this. Why?

Trump: Because I just don't know enough about it.
