Anthony Bourdain hit hard. I always thought of him as having the best job on earth. He got to see the best of the world and show it to everyone.
It just goes to show we all wrestle with our demons. Don’t ever be afraid to reach out for help.
Apparently, the Russians moved a lot of their best bombers far from the front when they realized they were exposed to strikes, so Ukraine hit them with some James Bond, 4D chess operation they’d been planning for a year and a half.
Those bombers had been terrorizing Ukrainian cities, destroying defensive fortifications, and are a key part of the Russian nuclear threat.
Whatever weapons and money everyone is sending Ukraine, double it.
Low energy honesty vs. bigliest due process president ever who gives all the due process unlike [nickname] [rival] who does no due process whatsoever.
He really has lost several steps.
Davies was contacted by seven men over seven days who had all been scammed or catfished by seven different fake accounts that were using her images. She wrote an Instagram post to warn others and a BBC journalist got in touch, leading to her first documentary When Nudes Are Stolen. This was life-changing. “It was the first time that I had sat down with campaigners and experts who laid all those images out and said that what happened to me wasn’t OK,” she says. “No one had ever said that before. No one had ever said: ‘It wasn’t your fault.’ It was such a moment for me. It lifted the weight off my shoulders.”
Good Lord, that’s depressing. When people take advantage of you, it’s not your fault. What is this world doing to people?
Between the genocide in Gaza and what’s coming for the West Bank, Palestine might not exist in the next few years. Survivors scattered to the winds.
It’s incredibly sad, but honestly foreseeable. The right wing shift in the west is killing what little sympathy and press coverage there was.
Ukraine sends its regards.
Put two journalists in the chat this time. Mix it up. Double the compromise of national security; double the fun.
What exactly do LGBT issues have to do with trade policy? Why is this on the table? Is there supposed to be some big gay conspiracy to devalue currency or something? It’s all so idiotic.
China is very much aware that this is its moment. Position itself as an alternative to Trump’s chaos that isn’t afraid of him and offers a different path.
Militarily, China is outmatched by a wide margin, but combine economic strategy with diplomacy in the face of a superior rival’s extreme, unforced mistakes, and China is seeing a path to win the 21st century without having to fight.
I’m curious what India thinks of Usha Vance. On paper, she’s an Indian-American Second Lady. In reality, she sits back while her husband says he’s okay with all kinds of anti-Indian racist shit.
If anyone still thinks Trump wants to help Ukraine, they haven’t been paying attention. Europe has to rearm and protect itself.
Ukraine needs to prepare to operate without US intelligence. It’s getting pulled again soon. They also need to prepare for Starlink going dark. The US has been taken over by traitors. Temporary measures are for PR. Long term, they work for Putin.
Europe needs to see that unity is the way to go. A united Europe is needed to stand against the mad kings in Russia and the US.
Nazi traitors gonna do traitorous Nazi shit. God bless Ukraine and its holy fight against evil. They will find a way and emerge victorious.
It’s too bad the royals and Trump don’t have the privacy of Epstein’s island to hash these things out between their other activities there, whatever those were.
Honestly, that’s not a bad deal. The US gets fentanyl enforcement. Mexico gets the flow of guns slowed, which weakens the cartels.
The tariff thing was a silly dance to get there, though. Makes me wonder if that wasn’t market manipulation. Knowing the tariffs would hit in the morning, then get lifted before enforcement would have made it very easy to play the market for a ton of money.
Germany can lead the way. They can become the new leaders of the free world.
Pistols at dawn. One less billionaire either way.
I’m not sure you really need an interpreter to say “march forward” and “get killed.” Seems like a simple enough message. You could probably use hand signals.
The current US president carries water for Russia. He is their thrall. He was always going to turn on Ukraine. It will get worse, but Europe is rearming and will rise to face Russia.
