It’s things like tonight that keep me hopeful.

Now watching 📽️

1) A ceasefire leading to what? The status quo before June 12 that permitted Israel to assassinate ppl? on Iranian soil? 2) What negotiations between the US and Iran will be possible given (a) Trump’s terms are surrender terms (b) it was Trump who ripped up the JCPOA and (c) Trump just bombed Iran?

Being the only rational actor is not a winning strategy in this case. If you’re the only player adhering to the rules, you’re going to lose the game.

Maybe we could fix this timeline if we genetically clone and resurrect Harambe like we did those dire wolves.

iran has developed truth nukes

I suppose the good news is we’re living through the end of this malevolent empire. The bad news is it’s going to go out with a decade or more of violent spasms, and take millions down with it.

Oh man, we are so cooked lol

54% of Americans in 2025, for some reason

Eyes on the Nimitz.

Footage from a Lebanese wedding

Triple split of Trump speaking at his military parade, police and the army violently cracking down on protestors across the country, and a tip line to help locate a political assassin definitely paints a vivid picture of modern America.

This parade is embarrassing. We can’t even march properly! China, DPRK, and even Russia all put us to shame. SAD!

Completely insane

So, it would appear Israel basically tried to assassinate the entire Iranian establishment. If true, then we're way past "let's hope cooler heads prevail". No country on Earth could possibly react to such an attack with anything but all the violence it is realistically capable of unleashing.

Here we go...

History tells us that if the US ever starts to accuse you of having nukes, you should drop everything and IMMEDIATELY get some nukes as fast as possible.

Maritime warnings in the Arabian Gulf and Straits of Hormuz, US accusing Iran of having nukes, embassy staff evacuations from Middle Eastern countries, cancelled congressional appearances of military commanders… Seems like the talks aren’t gonna continue and Israel will go ahead and strike Iran.

Waking up to THE news today.

The thing about “remaining peaceful” and “not giving them reason” is that the State doesn’t actually need a justification to escalate. If they want to do it, they can just do it.

Defense Secretary Hegseth threatens to send Marines into LA

I don’t think all the Trump/Musk stuff is fake, but I DO think Nathan Fielder is somehow involved.

I gotta turn off iPhone text summaries, because I woke up today to a barrage of texts from my gf that Apple summarized as “Breakup; sent photos of social media” and almost had a heart attack.

Comrade Bannon is right.

They're literally doing the meme

Stayed up all night playing guitar for the first time in years. The new Tele plays like a dream, and I just couldn’t put it down.

Just now finding out Benson Boone and Morgan Wallen are two different guys.

Finally starting Andor season 2!

I’ve been playing guitar since 2007, and I never had a nice one. All that time, I had one specific dream guitar. And now I FINALLY HAVE IT! An American Fender Tele in Satin Sonic Blue with a rosewood fretboard. The most beautiful instrument I’ve ever laid eyes on, and the best gift I’ve ever gotten!

The Rehearsal finale was insane. Definitely think this season was a masterpiece. Felt like a culmination of all his work up to this point.

Can’t believe the next financial crisis is gonna be kicked off by a bunch of people defaulting on the subprime loans they used to finance a Chipotle burrito.

Bro, I swear to God. We are an irredeemable nation.
