After an absolute shit week in the world, I go out to a wonderful birthday dinner with the family. I come home, switch on the #GoBeavs game and YAY! Turn on the TV to get some good news from #PTFC. Alas. #RCTID

We got us a team, people. Coach Shep has the plan, and the players are buying in. Great game, super effort. Improvement from week to week. Beavers never quit! #GoBeavs

Early take: Overall much improved defense. D line still needs work. LBs and secondary have taken a step up. #GoBeavs

Every loss is tough. This one had a lot of good things. Good QB play. Great receiver group. Decent run game. Obvious work needed on both lines. Lotta hope. We got the right coach. Great to see an offense with a plan. Gave a top 25 team all they could handle. Beavers never quit! #GoBeavs

Friends, the International Red Cross/Red Crescent has a specific appeal for the Iran War. Red Crescent humanitarian supply depots were among the civilian facilities hit by air strikes. donate.redcrossredcrescent.org/ifrc/iran-co...
donate.redcrossredcrescent.org
Since late February 2026, devastating strikes across Iran have killed hundreds, injured thousands, and disrupted essential services for up to 60 million people. The Iranian Red Crescent Society has mobilized thousands of responders to deliver search and rescue, medical aid, and emergency relief across the country — but the scale of need is far beyond what they can meet alone. Donate today to help the Iranian Red Crescent reach 200,000 people with life-saving assistance. To view the emergency appeal and more information on this emergency, visit the emergency page on IFRC.org.

There are a lot of people screaming at each other to do something. The sad reality is that there are maybe 20-30 people inside Trump’s bubble what can have material influence on him today. They are the only ones who can “do something.” I’m not sure they can do anything, nor do they want to.

Well, what do you know. Just as very tentative and fragile ceasefire negotiations between US and Iran start to show signs of life, Israel jumps in to fuck it up. This is in South Pars, the area Trump said would not be hit again after Israel hit it a couple of weeks ago.
Screenshot from The Guardian with headline “Israel strikes major Iranian petrochemical plant after Trump’s threats over infrastructure.” This came after numerous reports that US and Iran are exchanging ceasefire proposals.

There’s a better than even chance that if US/Israel stops shooting, the Iranians will too. It might be a signal that we’re serious about ending the war. But we don’t have serious leaders, so never mind.

Imagine a better world: <at the US-Iran talks, Feb. 2026> Iran: “We have enough 60% Uranium to build 10 bombs” Actual US Diplomat: “Yes, we know. Are you open to discussing transfer to a third party? And can we discuss future enrichment viz a viz relaxing sanctions?” I think about this a lot.

The USA is facing a Pearl Harbor moment. We have the largest, most powerful military in the world, but we are actually helpless against Iran. We can bomb and bomb from afar, but our Navy and ground forces are unable to approach the country. Too dangerous. We have an obsolete military.
