Kim Dotcom: Told my wife to have dinner ready at 6 or I will obliterate her entire civilization.

She now charges me a fee to use the bathroom, that used to be free, and I didn't get dinner. WTF

We weren’t joking when we said they elected a madman because of pronouns.

“brutality and cruelty are secret weapons with no tradeoffs that no one but us has had the balls to use” is a foundational belief-system element in the right-wing mass public; unfortunately, we have replacement-level members of the right-wing mass public as president and SecDef right now

The biggest story in the world right now is that the president of the United States is a demented old man who takes pleasure in torturing and killing people and is committing crimes with impunity. And yet most legacy media outlets are too cowardly to tell it like it is.

Unless the US Government is backstopping the Time Value of Money portion of, you know, not having a ship while a new one gets built, and other liabilities associated with employee loss or externalities, this is functionally useless

It appears bluster, hubris, sputtering incompetence and white Christian jingoistic bloodlust aren't particularly useful for actual war. This is why you don't let B-team propagandist drunkies run the Pentagon.

It's just struck me that in a situation where the US government and the Iran government have made contradictory statements, as they have today, I'm now inclined to think the Iranians are telling the truth than the Americans. This is Not Good.
