Vent ! Pluie ! Canicule ! Tout est ta faute Me dit le chat en rentrant +++ Wind! Rain! Heatwave! It's all your fault The cat said to me on the way home #ombres #3lignes #3lines #vérité #truth

I'm going to try and communicate with my Republican colleagues in a new way.

degenerateart.beehiiv.com/p/rogue-scot... Performatively brutalizing *noncitizens* and introducing background terror *also* suggests to *U.S. citizens* that working at cross-purposes with the government’s violence against immigrants might be dangerous for them, too. Stand strong together. 1+1=1

So Jeff Bezos is getting married, in Venice, for $55M. It’s time for the obligatory reminder of wealth inequality: With a fortune estimated at $268B, he could spend that amount of money *every day* for 13 years. It’s the equivalent of a person making $100k spending $20 Get your mind around that.

Trump Warns if He Does Not Win Nobel Peace Prize He Will Bomb Norway THE HAGUE (The Borowitz Report)—Raising eyebrows on the final day of the NATO summit, Donald J. Trump said on Wednesday that if he is not awarded the Nobel Peace Prize he will bomb Norway.

My new favorite handbill advert. Weird and whimsical ❤️

“White House rejects intelligence assessment that strikes did not destroy Iran nuclear programme after details/damage assessment were leaked from the Pentagon.” Trump's special envoy to the Middle East, Steve Witkoff, calling the leaked intelligence assessment "treasonous". So…the truth is treason

"I DEMAND THAT THE NOBEL COMMITTEE IMMEDIATELY CONVENE AND AWARD ME THE NOBEL PEACE PRIZE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER."

10/10 no notes

www.theguardian.com/commentisfre... “What the current moment has revealed is a cohort of regimes fundamentally unsuited to crisis, fit only for management; a crop of politicians whose very role is not to rethink or challenge the way things are, but simply to shepherd geopolitical traffic.”

Mambo # 47 A little bit of Greenland in the ice All of Canada would be nice A little bombing in Tehran Starving Gaza all night long Ignoring Ukraine every day For whatever Putin had to say

The ultimate water sausage compilation:

“Don’t worry the pendulum will swing back” is: 1. A false assumption 2. Stunningly naive 3. Real loser shit

Israel, using U.S. planes, flown by pilots trained by the U.S. and paid from U.S. support funds, used U.S. intelligence to identify targets, is dropping U.S. made bombs on Iran. Yet the NYT is asking the question as to whether the USA is going to get involved. SMH

“You fell victim to one of the classic blunders! The most famous of which is, ‘never get involved in a land war in Asia,’ but only slightly less well-known is this: ‘Never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line!’”

I think with a well-disciplined phalanx of Greek spearmen, we should be able to take and hold Persia with limited difficulty.

So you fire the entire intelligence community and decide to go war while adding $3 trillion to the deficit.

www.nytimes.com/live/2025/06... Now do Fox News.

www.mcsweeneys.net/articles/its... This is satire. (You can’t be too careful these days.)

www.theguardian.com/commentisfre... A Harvard study showed that once 3.5% of the population became engaged in sustained and non-violent resistance, change has happened. In every country studied. That’s 9M Americans. Let’s do this.

www.zinnedproject.org/materials/th... Hartman Turnbow, a Black Mississippi farmer and community leader, was a case in point. With tragic foresight, Turnbow bluntly warned Martin Luther King Jr. in 1964, “This nonviolent stuff ain’t no good. It’ll get ya killed.” Let’s not forget the use of force.

www.nytimes.com/live/2025/06... Israel, using U.S. planes, flown by pilots trained by the U.S. and paid from U.S. support funds used U.S. intelligence to identify targets, and dropped U.S. made bombs on Iran today. “No US involvement” says the Trump “administration.”

"DHS falsely accused Padilla of failing to identify himself. (He can be heard in videos that have circulated on social media doing just that.)" www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

www.nytimes.com/2025/06/12/u... Oh my god, eat the biggest bag of flaccid dicks, New York Times.

theonion.com/protesters-u... This just in: satire has been murdered in cold blood

It’s crazy to travel out of the USA to somewhere w/ data privacy laws. Every single website has a pop up: “this site wants to use your data. do you want to share it?” For the vast majority, the answer is of course no. Americans by and large don’t even know how much they are bought and sold.

www.npr.org/2025/05/29/g... Scientists had been studying the issue and had evacuated the village. Now imagine this story in the USA: “no one could have predicted this,” said government officials about the tragedy that killed hundreds, after funding cuts to NWS, FEMA, and the Nat.Geological Survey.

I do not think people are actually seriously calibrated for how rabidly anti-university the MAGA right is and how core that is to their policy goals. It is probably the #2 issue after immigration for them, and for some of them it’s higher.
