Iraqis rn.

This is now only day 5 of a largely unhindered Israeli air and SOF campaign over Iran. If Iranian capabilities continue to erode, it's worth considering what condition the Khamenei regime will be in after day 20.

It all depends on postwar scenarios. If the Israelis severely damage the Khamenei regime's domestic legitimacy and weaken its repressive capacity then the politics of Iran become much more prone to destabilisation in the years that follow.

Alaska just issued its first-ever heat advisories 🤯 eu.usatoday.com/story/news/n...

Your 'bonus moment of doom' for today: “We always have these unintended consequences of regulation, where you regulate something, and then there’s still a need for the products that those were in. So they get replaced by something.” scitechdaily.com/scientists-d...

Need a good sunrise palate cleanser to start the week.

America just had a day of absolutely massive popular protest against its regime and its media treats it as a one day story, no follow up. Hey media, you know there are real people involved and leading. Maybe cover them? It’s noticeable msm refuses to build up leaders as icons. No MLK today!

Why is the oil price not surging with a major war in the Middle East? Any guesses? This FT piece makes some attempts to explain but somehow does not mention global oil glut, the rise of EVs and demand destruction or any of the factors that are causing, "this time to be different."

The WSJ didn't include the reason in their headline. Must not have had space. I fixed it.

There is really a lot of excitement in Geothermal World and Nuclear World about Meta pouring cash into projects, so here's a little reminder of why Meta is called Meta

JAPAN HISTORIC HEAT WAVE Exceptional heat is kicking off in Japan. Temperatures will locally approach 40C and hundreds of records can fall Today new June records 36.2 Tokushima,Anabuki and Takinomiya 35.8 Imabari 35.1 Nakamura 34.9 Akae 34.3 Taiza Tomorrow Tokyo record can fall!

The 14 years of war in #Syria left deep environmental scars that impact public health, ecosystems and climate resilience. Now the time to assess, coordinate and restore. @paxforpeace.nl consulted civil society gropus in former regime and NE Syria, here's what we heard paxforpeace.nl/news/syrias-...

For all the talk of Iran closing the Straits of Hormuz, I wouldn't be surprised if pressure from Beijing to ensure Chinese oil and gas imports from the Gulf States aren't disrupted prevents Tehran from doing so until the final stages of a Khamenei regime collapse.

You just have to laugh at how ridiculously bad an institution the NYTimes is. They’re working it for Cuomo, first with their political coverage and now with an editorial. Anyway, F the NYT and let’s keep rocking for Mamdani and against Cuomo. Yard signs delivered in my nabe, popping up all over:

Quite a few analysts in Iran and the Iranian diaspora are emphasising anti-Israel solidarity in much of Iranian society, but the point @michaelhorowitz.bsky.social makes about Israel finding enough Iranians willing to help its operations is also a key part of the equation www.wsj.com/world/middle...

World history is largely a long list of military solutions. Politicians who say there is "no military solution" to an active conflict are in most cases trying to excuse their inaction.

Reportedly,this video shows the launch of Iranian ballistic missiles towards Israel,filmed by passengers of a plane that was flying over Dubai Many people are now trying to flee the conflict zone now.Friends,have you seen information how the refugee issues will develop,especially regarding Europe?

This chart has been widely reported, but its importance cannot be understated. Climate models are seriously underestimating the crisis. Story: phys.org/news/2025-06... Paper (paywall ) www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... #climatechange #models #ECS #globalwarming #CERES #climatecrisis

Every time I post about the astronomical numbers (many, many billions) of wildlife annually killed by cats, someone replies with "MY cat doesn't do that". The evidence is crystal clear: many cats are exterminators, and the ONLY way to be sure yours isn't is by keeping it indoors, or not at all.

pretty disgusting www.theguardian.com/world/2025/j...

"Iran doesn't have nukes. Israel does. Iran is a signatory to the NPT. Israel isn't. Israel has allowed IAEA inspectors into its country. Israel doesn't." But Israel is the victim? My video for Zeteo on how the media's coverage of this crisis is abysmal & ridiculously biased. zeteo.com/subscribe

🔴 Drawing a Red Line for Gaza 🔴 Today in Brussels, alongside thousands of citizens, we are forming a human chain to remind the world that all red lines have long been crossed in Gaza. We demand international law upheld, humanitarian aid delivered, and justice for all. Human rights must come first! ✊

Climate change: The shit is hitting the fan, and the fan is on maximum.

Those stupid enough to drive climate destruction explosion devices will pay more. Those clever enough to use EVs or bicycles or transit won’t pay more.

A key advantage of electrification is we'll get to say goodbye to the calamitous effects of precarious oil prices, which go haywire every time a pariah state bombs another country.

I wish I had been wrong about more in this thread the morning after the 2024 election.

It’s always worth remembering that even the people who voted for him are largely not like, Trump stans. They are not going to sit in 99% humidity for him. He has die hard followers, but like any fandom, that’s a specific group.

Look forward to walking the Footscray Park to Camp Sovereignty section of Yoorrook Justice Commission's Walk for Truth tomorrow ❤️💛🖤 (you can still sign up!)

Led by a President experiencing severe mental decline, the United States ceased to be a functioning geopolitical actor

Huge crowds. Huge. Only fake news says otherwise.

Yeah, you hear Likud ministers and far right chat show hosts about the "privileged White European elites" here all the time.

US Army day has been a great ad for the US Navy

One good thing about today in Los Angeles is that the mainstream media was onsite *before* the police started rioting. So many news crews saying "the crowd here in LA is totally peaceful" right before LAPD and LA Sheriff started shooting and trampling people

"if you wanted to set the prestige and respect of the United States of America on fire, what, exactly, would you do differently than what the current regime has done?"

Hi everyone I was denied entry, detained, and deported from the USA over the last 48 hours because of my reporting on the Columbia student protests I arrived back in Melbourne hours ago and had my phone handed back to me upon landing

As a four-decade veteran of the daily journalism business, let me tell you: Every competent political reporter in this country knows that Trump is trying to establish a dictatorship. The industry's shame is that so few journalists will say so, and the ones who do lose their jobs.

One reason I'm on Blueksky is I get to read smart people like this. I've never once wondered what Mark Cuban thought about anything and I've never heard of these other people who say they don't like it here.
