This.
A post from Sarah Kendzior: "When wealth is passed off as merit, bad luck is seen as bad character. This is how ideologues justify punishing the sick and the poor. But poverty is neither a crime nor a character flaw. Stigmatise those who let people die, not those who struggle to live."

Next up: a demand to use even more of the Owyhees for low-flight, high-speed training.

The only time you'll see "Kid Rock" and "Hot" together.
Screen grab of trending topics on Bluesky showing number 1 is Kid Rock and the level of posts is "Hot."

All the farm workers here were deported or fled. Now it’s U Pick everywhere, like a pumpkin patch.

It’s not like foreign air forces coming to the U.S. to train is a new thing. This doesn’t make me feel great about Qatar, though (ditto selling them fighter jets in the first place)

I think Hegseth said that at first but later corrected his misstatement (a first!). But the media ran with it and made me yelp WTF. Turns out this plan was developed in 2017 and was announced during Biden’s term.

I think Hegseth started the frenzy by misspeaking (he later corrected himself). But good lord, social media is sure running with it.

She admires Trump and really did dedicate her prize to him and the people of Venezuela. I don’t get it.

Today I learned that we have an air force base in Qatar. The money our country spends on war training is mind-boggling

They aren’t getting a base, but rather some barracks while they learn to fly the F-15s we sold them. Same as we do with some other countries. Can’t say I trust them. But we have a large base in Qatar. It’s all an overpriced web of war.

Small note. We aren’t giving them an entire base. They/we?are building facilities at MHAFB to train their guys how to fly the F-15s the U.S. sold them. Today I learned we have a base in Qatar. Can’t say that makes me feel better.

How fun! We got to watch them record a show in Fairbanks years ago. Peter, Paula P., Tom Bodett, and Adam Felber, plus an after-party at the university chancellor's house.
