Doctor to patient: "Try to reduce your stress level, and if you somehow succeed please let me know how in God's name you did it."

I thought this felt relatable

ZELENSKYY to Rheinmetall CEO Papperger:

Drones have replaced your German tanks — our Ukrainian drones. And we're already producing our Ukrainian drones together with Germany, but with different German company. Sorry.

Well asked. Lol @ reality-based data.

Trump could singlehandedly crash the market.

A black and white photograph. Everywhere is white with snow. On the edge of industrial Chicago, three relatively small Black Panthers, surrounded by a white wasteland, their backs to the photographer, give the Black Power salute. Ahead of them is the city.

Exactly!

I increasingly think American stockmarkets are bored with the whole Iran thing so they're just ignoring it.

June is not amused at the new development

🇩🇪 The Bundeswehr is set to radically revise its concept of land warfare, incorporating advanced technologies and lessons learned from Ukraine’s real battlefield experience. According to German Lieutenant General Christian Freuding, future warfare will require a return to mass in weaponry, as relying solely on expensive high-tech systems has proven economically unsustainable. The widespread use of drones and sensors has made the battlefield nearly transparent, turning the traditional concentration of large forces into a high-risk operation. At the same time, automation has virtually eliminated the time between target detection and strike execution, while first contact with the enemy has largely shifted into the remote domain. To prepare for the paradoxical conditions of modern trench warfare—enhanced by artificial intelligence—Berlin has launched a new training program. As part of it, Ukrainian soldiers with combat experience will directly train German troops at military bases. Rather than creating isolated drone units, German command has opted to deeply integrate drones across all existing army structures—from armored units to artillery. When procuring new loitering munitions, the government is deliberately prioritizing domestic manufacturers to maintain full control over sensitive data, production, and potential exports. At the same time, as Freuding openly acknowledges, the current strategic calculation among European allies assumes that the continued attrition of Russia’s forces on the front line buys valuable time for Western countries to rebuild their defense industries.

According to the Geneva Convention this is a war crime. Unlike the ICC, Israel have signed the Geneva Convention.

This is flat-out bizarre.

And the prize for the biggest load of bullshit in a one headline goes to…the Daily Telegraph.

Commiserations to the Daily Mail and Daily Express though, who always make a valiant effort at claiming the bullshit crown.

(No, chips and bread aren’t being banned - just the use of certain pesticides).

"It would be really bad if they don't work out this Hormuz thing, so they'll figure it out some way" is still the prevailing attitude.

Can see it in markets, media, politicians, public.

Bad can't happen, people in charge know what they're doing, it's all content anyway.

I find it... unsettling.

Campaign poster by Ukraine's Ministry of Foreign Affairs emphasizing the correct spelling of 'Chornobyl' (not 'Chernobyl'). Text reads: 'in Chornobyl, Ukraine, in the heart of the fire. Spelling Matters. #ChornobylNotChernobyl' Source: Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine.

#Ukraine urges global use of 'Chornobyl' over 'Chernobyl' to respect its language, sovereignty, and decolonize place names, as with 'Kyiv' over 'Kiev'.

Spelling Matters.

Totally!

First time I have seen it, it is so good!

Crypot is 👌

Got quite the Rio carnival vibe going on there.

I just don’t know who to trust when it comes to my child’s health: their pediatrician or these garishly-bronzed, elderly pedophiles who can’t do basic math

This hurts
