Previous library patron, why would you leave a note that says “article”? It’s not even the only article on the page (and it’s in page 459 so surely this isn’t the first article you’ve seen)

Many are saying this (if you doubt this, answer me: which country has the most successful long-term monetary policy and why is it China?) Not clear how practical this is for small states obviously.

So it’s a referendum about whether to have a referendum? Don’t really see the point of that - either have a referendum or don’t, why waste time voting about whether to have a vote about whether to secede?

Seems like anti-gerrymandering folks made a mistake passing legislation in easy states first. They need those states to wield the threat of gerrymandering to prevent the Republicans drawing absurd districts. Republican courts (where present) can use that legislation to keep Dems from balancing.

Awful lot of transport flight to the Middle East over the last two weeks. Americans are too irrational to “predict” their actions but that’s what you’d be doing if you planned to start fighting again.

All that money on Patriot batteries and stealth fighters and an Iranian F-5 (introduced in ‘63 or ‘64) still just flew right through and bombed an American base in Kuwait?

I think this war has somehow gotten stupider than it was at the beginning. Like, did he blow up a ceasefire negotiation that would have opened the Strait (his stated goal) because he decided to also blockade that same Strait, which he wants open?

It’s only been a week and a half but Chickpea (pictured) is so lonely, and therefore annoying, that we are fostering and hopefully adopting a friend for him named Mufasa (who, if they get along, will be renamed Moussaka).

This would put the Chinese in a position where they will have to respond.

So, is he saying the US Navy will stop Chinese ships? Because they will retaliate, and they’re a lot more competent than the Yankkkees.

Andrew Hills @gcrespector.bsky.social · 12/04/2026
So is Trump saying that the US Navy will stop allied ships because they have paid the toll to Iran to get through the Strait? Can’t imagine they go through with that, will go over poorly in every capitol that needs oil/fertilizers from the Gulf.
