1998 --we were drunk and driving. he (w/90s blond dye job) popped in this throttle response controller thing and slammed the gas so we could burn through an eight of a tank to accelerate somewhat faster on the way to nowhere and that's what summarize this email is
Many reports that Daniel Ella, the commander of the unit who murdered five year old Hind Rijab, has been severely wounded by Hezbollah during the 'Israeli' campaign of town and village destruction--ethic cleansing. May the wound swallow him.

hang in there.
they've got offices in Buffalo too.
Magyar has said wildly racist things abt Filipino workers & is fully committed to anti-immigrant politics. He deserves scorn until his actions speak otherwise. That the press celebrates the changing of the hard-right guard speaks to just how much they trust you to never actually look into these ppl
I made a small donation and shared.

The U.S. is committing more and more aircraft to West Asia, to continue to attempt apply the Gaza doctrine to Iran (it's not working). At a pit stop in Ireland, a man with an axe took one out of commission:

If you want something concrete to do while so much is terrifyingly out of our control, here's one option: donate to a mutual aid effort supporting people displaced by Israel's genocidal war on Lebanon.
Khatoun Salma is a Lebanese poet. Israel killed her in the April 8 massacre.

@penamerica.bsky.social
use their voice?
Or have they run away again from Israel's slaughter of writers and journalists now?

hah! I need professional help.
💚 yr unstoppable, rob!
facebook showing me reels of teeth with cavities full of squirming teeth kind of makes me feel like reaching older friends ain't worth it.
Ceasefire is over.
Iran preparing strikes to answer Israel's massacre.
Looks like the question is will the U.S. get back in or resume its traditional role of pumping weapons and $ into allies while providing logistical support and diplomatic cover?
Buffalo's finest.
400 dead so far, over 1000 injured, dozens and dozens missing. This is one hour into the massacre. I have no idea what the death toll will be in the end. Also, they have announced “another wave” of attacks coming
Israeli government ministers announced this morning that the ceasefire with Iran does not include Lebanon, while the Israeli army announced that its operations in Lebanon are continuing.
Israel immediately violated the ceasefire with heavy bombing of Lebanon, declaring more of Lebanon an evacuation zone. How much will Lebanon have to bear before the entity is no more?

the U.S. will do a lot of dirty war and the damage to the people of Iran is profound, the gen.o.cide continues in Lebanon and Gaza. but, damn, is it cool to see people enjoying the fact that at least for a moment they made empire eat shit and have the exact right sign poem for that.
The U.S. is pouring bombs on a nation of tens of millions: railways, bridges, universities, hospitals, markets. The Gaza Doctrine, The George Washington aka Town Destroyer Doctrine in the open. Intent to commit gen.o.cide.
Whatever our opposition can look like let it look like that.
💚
So stoked for this one! And what a cover!
Thinking about Gabriel Rockhill's argument that you don't have to wait for the media to finally call it World War III to call it World War III, especially when it serves the interests of the imperialists to minimize our perception of the scope of the violence.
