Hi this joke is for me

How has this become the one day of the year in which I briefly feel whole?

A drop of sanity in an ocean of madness.

Hungary Must Arrest Visiting Leaders Sought by ICC, Magyar Says Hungary’s incoming Prime Minister Peter Magyar said he would halt the departure from the International Criminal Court that his predecessor Viktor Orban initiated, affirming that Hungary would respect ...

After Netanyahu's office claimed that Peter Magyar had invited him to visit Hungary, the PM-elected says that he will enforce all ICC arrest warrants once the country re-enters the Rome Statute.

[Hungary will] "have a legal obligation to enforce the ICC rulings and I'm sure [Netanyahu] knows this".

Jaw-dropping failure

At a time when mass surveillance and autonomous weapons companies like Palantir are openly announcing their plans for violent world domination, it is crucial that our attempts at “big tech reform” don’t actually give them more power—ie via government mandated age verification/identity software

And hey, nobody ever forget: this was because her late husband’s sons were greedy bastards and stole both cars, reported her to ICE, re-routed the mail so she wouldn’t see anything about her Immigration case & are in the process of stealing the estate, all because their dad married an old flame.

On this day, the 20th of april, I expect big things from Brandon Ingram.

I've long stopped caring about what zionism means to anyone. I care about the outcomes and minimizing bloodshed.

A noble purpose.

You were moved to do this by pride and by hate. Is it any wonder the result was ruin?

THREAD 🧵

Israel says it has set up a ‘yellow line’ to demarcate and area it is occupying in southern Lebanon, mirroring a barrier it used in Gaza.

I’ve had the same editor since 1967. Many times he has said to me over the years or asked me, Why would you use a semicolon instead of a colon? And many times over the years I have said to him things like: I will never speak to you again. Forever. Goodbye. That is it. Thank you very much. And I leave. Then I read the piece and I think of his suggestions. I send him a telegram that says, OK, so you’re right. So what? Don’t ever mention this to me again. If you do, I will never speak to you again

Maya Angelou on the joys of being edited

Half of my feeds is bots pushing some dumb conspiracy theory that the Trump assassination attempt was staged. Like they somehow got all of the secret service to stay quiet about letting a sniper onto the roof, who was somehow good enough to only clip his ear at that distance, yet still shot 3 people

With his performance tonight, Wemby has set a new San Antonio Spurs franchise record for most points scored in a postseason debut, passing Tim Duncan!

Two days later, and the ADL has yet to comment on the US Secretary of Defense talking about the "Pharisee press." They sure found the time to talk about Hasan Piker, though.

how is this literally happening in real life

Opinion | Democrats Try to Block Arms Sales to Israel Forty of 47 in the Senate vote against weapons for America’s fighting ally.

The Wall Street Journal Editorial Board accuses the Democratic Party of wanting "to punish Israel for working with the U.S. in Iran" and for "pandering" to the 80% of Democratic voters who dislike Israel.

The thing about the photo of the IDF soldier beheading a statue of Jesus in south Lebanon is that the Israeli military has an effectively near 0% conviction rate for its soldiers and so this will just keep happening over and over and over and over. This is simply what unlimited impunity breeds.

Space before a comma?

Show me how you’ll protect speech around Gaza or go away. This is so tiresome. (Not Glickman, who is spot on- the authors of the Yale report or anyone writing about campus free speech in the year double twenty and six).

Mapped the IDF's newly declared "Forward Defense Zone" in south Lebanon. Its maritime boundary fully absorbs Lebanon's Qana gas field, whose exploration rights were explicitly guaranteed under the 2022 US-brokered maritime border agreement.
@weatherwar

The IDF is 'investigating' the photo of an IDF soldier smashing a Jesus statue in south Lebanon

L'Orient Le-Jour confirmed the location of the statue as being in the village of Debel near the Israeli border www.lorientlejour.com/article/1504...

It's one game. The first playoff appearance for this squad. I think taking away broader lessons from it is futile.

Not just a criticism of you specifically, you're doing your job, it's sports media as a whole that's geared to a short attention span

Hot take: the hot take trade is bad, actually.
