„Well, the news that "the recipient of the 'FIFA Peace Award for outstanding achievements in promoting peace and international understanding' is using military force to put last year's Nobel Peace Prize winner at the head of a puppet regime" would be a logical continuation of current world history.“
Naja, die Nachricht „Träger des ‚FIFA-Friedenspreis für herausragende Leistungen für Frieden und Völkerverständigung‘ setzt die letztjährige Friedensnobelpreisträgerin mit Militärgewalt an die Spitze eines Marionettenregimes“ wäre eine konsequente Fortsetzung der aktuellen Weltsgeschichte.

Will Arnett was on Conan and told a story about how Conan dealt with the death of his parents by accusing Jason Bateman of killing them. It’s so funny.

The post is from Alexander Dugin in telegram, the Kremlin's chief ideologue, a self-proclaimed "intellectual," a prominent russian nazi, and a happy father.

​The post was written today.

🧪 That's great. I've always wondered how physics can explain everything when you need independent standards for time, space, and mass. I would prefer zero standards, but for now I'm quite happy with a single time standard. Unfortunately, I've always considered time to be a mysterious concept.

I have never seen a more embarrassing damage control in 24 hours.

1. Witkoff is an idiot and got used.
2. The Admin is completely out of the loop on what their little failsons are doing around the world.
3. They are tired of a war they aren't fighting.

What a clusterfuck

🧪 Look! Something really happens inside a fusion reactor!
Taming the Edge: Lithium meets fusion plasma on ST40

Watch lithium injected into plasma in our ST40 tokamak - a key step in improving fusion performance. Lithium helps calm energy bursts (ELMs) and boost energy confinement. Our ST40 tokamak is the perfect platform to test future fusion tech.

OMG. The site is literally called the Dunning Kruger Times.
With a “WOW!,” President Trump posts a claim about DOGE and “royalties linked to Obamacare” that originated on a satirical website. That site’s own About section reads: “Everything on this website is fiction… If you believe that it is real, you should have your head examined.”

I am from Germany, and I am old enough to have had parents and grandparents who lived through Nazi Germany. Not every arrest is fascism. However, the organized manner in which this government enables these cruelties definitely has a 1933 vibe. You should not be sarcastic about the obvious parallels.
Yes, every arrest is fascism. Every court case is fascism. All things are fascism. Fascism is anything you believe it can be.
In all sincerity, sir, what say you @radiofreetom.bsky.social ? Would it be appropriate to call ICE, specifically, a fascist arm of the current regime?

From 1939-1945 German officers also listened to speeches from civilians about how the laws of war didn’t apply to them. And then they participated in the Holocaust, starved millions of prisoners of war, destroyed villages and cities, and were defeated.
Hegseth: "We unleash overwhelming and punishing violence on the enemy. We also don't fight with stupid rules of engagement. We untie the hands of our warfighters to intimidate, demoralize, hunt, and kill the enemies of our country. No more politically correct and overbearing rules of engagement."

Trump to generals: "Last month, I signed an executive order to provide training for a quick reaction force that can help quell civil disturbances. This is gonna be a big thing for the people in this room, because it's the enemy from within & we have to handle it before it gets out of control"
