Yeah, I know not many people see my feed, but I just needed to let out steam. This world is so awful, and watching intelligent people be so useless in the face of that awfulness.

There is so much doom in my scrolling that I'm feeling a bit sick. Better go off and read some fantastical manga filled with women with huge boobs or something.

Goddamn, I read my twitter thread, and all I get is the reminder that the world, while always haven been a cruel place, is just now so gleefully so...like this is a dystopia. No wonder I read so many comic books.

Wait, so if an American doctors feels like pallys deserve health care and goes there to help with that, the izzies can bomb him, and Trump is fine with that? And lots more Americans are fine with it with him?

I think it's fairly obvious that Trump has a blackmail book, and everyone else with power is playing a game wherepun Trump is allowed that rope to hang himself, and a condition for any release is disarming that book... well, I hope so...

Jesus fucking christ! Policy simply cannot be run like this!

I am very sick of Trump's volatility.

But man, US/English language media has turned into a fundamentally insidious force in Anglo politics, ever since, effectively, birtherism/Brexit...

Look...Ukraine attempting to utilize episode spectacular violence or outright terrorism mostly just advertises the weakness of their position rather than bring Russia to the table with other than somewhat capitulative demands.

Man, I remember how twitter was in 2014, after Brown's death...

Heh, twitter is behaving kind of weirdly...to be expected at a time like this...

Anyways, can Trump keep his story straight? Israel decided alone to attack Iran or Israel attacked with US backing and expectations of protection. Which is it?

Also, I wonder...just how many Arab coons are willing to sing the western line in full view nowadays?

Israel's smuggling in of drone swarms to enact a decapitation attack is fundamentally inimical to global trade. It is, as Joe Weisenthal might conclude, a Lusitania moment. The consequences should be slower than in WWI tho'.

The clearly perfidious behavior of the US and Europe makes future major wars much more likely, as they make negotiations themselves far more dangerous to engage in.

one thing that is interesting is how unhinged Trump's communications have been during this affair.

man, my twitter feed is so much less active than it should be, and filled with so much more junk. Can you imaging what today would be like with 2016 era Twitter? Obviously, some kind of quiet censorship is happening, but still...

Heh, right now, *all* of my What's Happening tabs are sports tabs. None of the really important stuff going on. All of these tabs under 18k posts. There is pretty clearly censorship happening.
