I love when this guy comes out, like he did after our Venezuela strike, to say the UK played no role. NO SHIT. You're a complete nobody on the world stage, WE KNOW. You don't have to keep telling us.

Here’s your reminder that even if you don’t support the strikes, that doesn’t require you to become a propagandist for a brutal and hostile Iranian regime that murders dissidents by the thousands. The latter is your choice.

My Caucasian brother-in-law had an amputated leg. He died after I had already become a priest. I don’t recall ever going to church with him whenever, as kids, we went on holidays to my sister who was married to him. I started offering Holy Masses for him after his death. Then one

It's in contact with you whenever you're wearing pants, and yes: some wallets are more comfortable than others. The range of stuff guys have to carry is wild, too. Some can do the clip thing, others can't. If you have one that works and is comfortable, you stick with it.

If we do strike China it will be in a manner the world has never seen, just as this strike on Iran was unprecedented and unfathomable to the world heretofore. Americans have always done war one of two ways: - repeatable and reliable - man-made horrors beyond comprehension If we

I was upset on Monday morning because I had a *seven* pound gain from last Saturday’s 191lb. Woke up at 195lb, which is the first week I trended up in a while. I didn’t let it get to me though. Still brought everything to push & hamstrings day, ending with a great pump.

I’m out at The Pearl in Annapolis with friends and I take my bomber jacket off and a twenty-something lady beckons to me and says “you? BODY TEA” and it made my night and I may be homosexual and all but I’m never going to forget it; also look at this awesome mirror they have

ok sam altman dropped some truth bombs about the whole pentagon, anthropic, openai sitch overnight and tbh it’s VERY eye-opening: - important: said the pentagon *wasn’t* trying to modify how models behave (but they request you don’t “interfere with operational decisions” for

“Erm erm erm ackshully America didn’t set aside the first national park, it was [insert name of irrelevant country].” Yeah I get this Reddit claim all the time it’s a hallmark of someone looking to grind an axe about US politics rather than make an accurate claim about

It’s truly is great. For 35% of the year, and then the worst ever.

It’s kinda cool how a few years ago the precipitating tension in Top Gun 2 was the rise of drones and the decline of the fighter program and here we are, with the F-35, piercing that tension in real life
