Does it hurt less if you’re shot in the passive voice?

The war in Ukraine has been to drones what WWI and WWII was to airplanes. Warfare has fundamentally shifted, and we don't fully understand how yet, but it sure seems like Russia is testing the strategic reach of them out

Drone sightings near airports and military facilities in several European countries, including Denmark, Germany and Norway, have led to flight disruptions and raised security concerns.

Drone Sightings in Europe: What We Know

Airports in several countries have temporarily closed in recent weeks after reports of drones in the skies. Experts say the response has exposed a lack of preparedness.

Trump's Truth Social account just posted this AI video of him flying a fighter jet that reads "King Trump."

AI Trump is wearing a crown while he dumps shit on protesters. He's such a pathetic little man.

My favorite aspect of the Columbus legend is him getting rejected by the Portuguese gets spun as them not recognizing the genius of his idea. No - he went into a roomful of expert navigators and made basic math mistakes, they thought he was a moron, and they wouldn't fund his idea on that basis.

There’s no such thing as “Antifa,” at least not as an actual organized institution, but repressive measures of the kind the regime is doing will certainly create one

Mike Johnson’s abrupt closure of the House had more to do with stalling a congressional investigation into Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking operation than previously reported, and it appears to have been a direct response to the Treasury’s surrender of Epstein’s financial records.

SCOOP: Johnson closed House hours after Congress received Epstein’s financial records

The decision to shut down the House — and by extension the government — came hours after the Oversight Committee received documents from the US Treasury.

I'm glad to see that the effort Merrick Garland applied to "restoring norms" to the Department of Justice paid off so resplendently.

Wait, what????

(Btw, it turns out that you CAN indict people even if there are disagreements within DOJ/USAO! Some of us are not surprised.)

There was a girl on my freshman floor from a small town who thought a guy was hot, was down to go out and found out he was Jewish, and declared "I can't date you, your people killed Jesus."

She faced huge social consequences from the entire floor and she realized it was ass backwards.

Conservatives think university brainwashes their kids because they end up meeting a wide enough variety of people to realize their parents are ignorant dipshits, so of course it's the school's fault. They tried to indoctrinate their kids, failed.
