Iran will have access to Chinese and Russian satellite images, as well as their own “on the ground” intelligence assessments. This move is more likely meant to control public perception in the US.

Any of our news orgs simply won’t publish them.

There’s video of it. Clearly it’s snowballs.

I can definitely relate to this question. The tension between self-improvement and self-acceptance. The older I get, the more I lean towards the latter. I’ve spent waaayy too long beating myself up over my faults, but never managing to correct them. Why continue feeling bad?

This dude is like a lab-grown dem politician.

That shit never worked either.

Too bad the pilots are okay.

Who gives a fuck where this monster monitors his war crimes from? Security issue? Fucking good.

Trump can purge the military, because there’s nobody to stop him. I guess the mayors could fire all the cops, which would be fucking rad, tbh. I doubt any of them would do it though. Trump or even their governor would probably have them arrested and reinstate all the cops.

You also don’t have to believe everything “your thought produces”. It’s very common to have thoughts that are tied to old patterns of thinking, rather than new ones you are cultivating. For example, many of us have internalized racist or transphobic attitudes. Through life, learning and experience we have come to change our minds. However, we can’t help that sometimes we have a reactive thought based in our old conditioning. You don’t simply ignore such thoughts, you address them rationally. Over time, they diminish. This is part of growth.

The cops won’t do it. This is why mayors haven’t been doing this. Cops will just ignore the order and expose that the mayor isn’t the one with power. Anyone expecting the fucking cops to protect anyone from ICE is delusional.

Thrift store boombox.

I wish you had never learned the term “harm reduction”. To apply it to an ongoing genocide is grotesque beyond description. There is no bargaining. No nuance. No complex structural analysis that can cast shadows upon such a bare moral outrage. Is there any bridge too far for you? Is there any atrocity you won’t co-sign so long as double it is threatened? Draw a line and stand behind it.

Too late.

I fully agree with you. I been team “fuck Bill Gates” forever. I just mean that there’s a whole lot of people that were jock-riding him.

Imagine winning the game. But you have decades of your life left. By definition, you have access to the most exclusive of everything. Nobody ever tells you “no”. I’m not surprised these fucks decide that even the the most universal social taboos shouldn’t confine them.

That’s also why you should keep some other delicious snacks handy. Sometimes you start feeling good and crave another brownie :)

Oh no, the ritual!

For anyone that still needs to hear this: there are no good billionaires! ABAB. This dude right here was the poster child for "good billionaires’. I don’t know whether only evil fuckers can become billionaires (probably), but I do know that having access to functionally unlimited wealth and power will inevitably warp your soul.

My wife is “xennial” and her music tastes skew younger. Lots of younger artists are selling cassettes and CDs at their merch tables. We have more tapes and discs in our house than I ever had in the 90s.
