Laughter is the greatest antidote to fear.
Bearing witness. Good trouble. Necessary trouble.

Trump has one mission. Fuck over the universe for benefit to himself.

How did they get that many tiny schlongs in one cabinet? Maybe that was the measure by which they were selected - no one could exceed Trump's own.

In case you missed it, I took a stab on Saturday via "One First" at writing up five of the questions raised by Friday's U.S. military/arrest operation in Venezuela, and the forthcoming criminal prosecution of Nicolás Maduro:

200. Five Questions About the Maduro Arrest Operation
Friday night's U.S. military operation in Venezuela was a textbook violation of international law. It's also entirely unauthorized by U.S. law, which ought to (but probably won't) matter.

Reminder that Hitler annexed the Netherlands for security to protect them from the British.

I think that's the same play Trump is going for with Greenland.

I think he will annex the island as a "security measure"

NATO and Denmark be damned.

Former UK prime minister Liz Truss recently interviewed and promoted Curtis Yarvin, using her platform to spread his explicitly anti democratic, neo reactionary worldview, in direct opposition to Heather Marsh’s progressive worldview. #3E
To overcome the growing threat, free people need to secure democracy with education, knowledge, and modern methods of mass collaboration and governance that work. The only viable modern alternative we have found is the Binding Chaos theory. #BindingChaos

Trump is pushing the invasion of Greenland again. Denmark needs to kick out the US, send a larger military contingent and air defence systems to protect against a US invasion and attacks. Failing to do so is dangerously shortsighted.
