The Trump Administration said they would NOT renew their Russian oil sanctions waiver. Then two days later they renewed it anyways. They lie about everything.
Definitely has some LttP boss vibes, I would say :)

The first panel shows a crow with the title "How to live a good life". The second panel shows a crow cawing at itself in the mirror with the subheading "Make friends". The next panel says "Explore" and shows a crow looking into a commercial waste bin. The next says "Try new things" with a crow eating something vile. The next one says "Be curious" and shows the crow grabbing a hissing cat's tail". The final frame says "Get a hobby" and shows the crow looking closely at a book of matches.

We’re defending Western Civilization by kicking Plato and Shakespeare out of university classes.
Cartoon showing a jungle with dangerous animals. An ape looks a lot like Donald Trump, while a snake has a head resembling Putin. A poisonous frog looks a lot like Netanyahu, while a large spider has the head of Kim Jong Un. In a river swims a crocodile with the head of Xi Jinping. A house in the middle of the jungle has a walled garden and a flagpole with a European flag in it. A man is mowing the lawn as he looks at the various dangerous animals surrounding him.

Putin considering Israel to be basically a Russian colony is funny in light of the US considering Israel to be its own colony.
Maybe Russia and the US are the same country after all.

I'm shocked they still have ships there. Any other attractive targets in that harbour currently? :)

US citizens slowly getting the full North Korea experience. Soon they'll get their own US-only intranet and heavily restricted access to US-only electronics, except for the elite who will have unrestricted access to everything.
Russia is also headed that way now...
One Russian paper today claims “Life has become four times more joyous.” Another reports the country’s economic reserves are “largely exhausted.” Plus: “a new drop in the approval rating of the [Russian] authorities.” And who are the Kremlin’s friends in the West? #ReadingRussia
I didn't replace the battery in the smartphone to then go out and buy a new one, after all.
Google's forced obsolescence culture strikes again.
So nice to have apps begin to tell me already that because I don't run Android 14+ features are already beginning to be dropped.
With most manufacturers providing Android updates for 2 years at most, you either have to keep buying a new phone, or go for third-party ROMs.
Guess 3rd-party it is...
Worth adding that Russia did as a matter of fact intervene for Trump in 2016 and that the evidence is widely known, abundant, and collected in various forms (🧵 1/3)

Indeed... hospitals and GP offices are basically ground zero for anything unpleasant.
Yet so many doctors still refuse to mask up. Says a lot, really :)
Today's PSA. I'd like to keep y'all around.
I need the laughs😉❤️
Still persisting as the sole person here with my P3 filters every time I am forced to spend time indoors with plague carriers AKA 'people'.
I like not having my brain and veins ravaged by repeated COVID :)
On International Day for Monuments and Sites, the world honors cultural heritage.
For Ukraine, it’s also a reminder of the many landmarks destroyed by Russian attacks—part of a broader effort to erase Ukrainian identity.

Hot take: if we're going to do age verification for online products and services using privacy-invading measures, we may as well go back to physical stores and disinterested sales clerks glancing at the customer.
Maybe more awkward, but at least nobody will steal your passport scan.

Operators of the 1020 Anti-Aircraft Missile and Artillery Regiment flew into the propeller of an enemy drone during a mass attack — and captured its fall on video. All done by a single interceptor STING.
