I've never seen someone with "a wild look in their eyes" until now. A man just looked at me at work and there was something primal there. He wasn't angry or aggressive, more like he was scanning for threats while moving through the undergrowth. I think he may have been a shaved ape
It's hard to not see this as a historic turning point. The US can no longer project power successfully in multiple theaters. Stalemate in Ukraine, and utter defeat in Iran. The unipolar world of the 90s is well and truly dead. It's history.
I expect the capitalists to panic and jump to fascism even more in the wake of this.
I try not to judge old people, but having worked in customer service for three years, the overwhelming majority of shitty customers - like over 90% - are over 65. Such a large proportion of them are unbelievably selfish and rude, and they abuse minimum wage workers because they know we just have to take it.
Also, so many of them are just so stupid and lazy. I work in a food truck, and the amount of them that don't bother looking at the menu, and just say "burger" to me is unreal. So many of them just approach and treat me like a vending machine, not a person. Also, how the fuck do they STILL not know how card machines work??? There is seriously no excuse, this technology has been widespread for at least 15 years and more and more places prefer card over cash. I see so many old people drag their card over the machine or try to press the end of the card against it, instead of just holding it for a second.
Tangential rant, when I worked in a bar, there was a man who would come in every morning, have four or five pints of Guinness with a shot of whiskey each, then totter off to work. He didn't know his own pin and asked ME what it was (???). Then he spent like an hour going to the bank to find out his pin, and the next time he saw me, he had forgotten, and expected me to remember it for me. Like dude. How do you function
If clothes make a man, then we can assume that a lack of clothes make a lack of man, or woman. Nudity is nonbinary, according to Mark Twain
naked people have little to no influence in society
Look I'm working on it okay?
I really felt like these ghouls were invincible. I was waiting on the old fucks like Kissinger to die, but Kirk and his fellow fascists have gotten away with it for so long that I felt like I would never see them assassinated.

"Ha! These brainwashed foreigners think we have functional infrastructure, those fools"
Honestly I thought this would be a slam dunk for Trump after the assassination photo, then he completely failed to capitalize on that, then I thought it would be a slam dunk for Harris, then she did absolutely nothing to make her likeable and got an endorsement from Cheney. How are both presidential candidates so bad at running for president
Israel launches strikes on Houthi targets in Yemen
"Our message is clear - for us, no place is too far," - Defence Minister Yoav Gallant
They are 1000000% trying to start an all-out regional war and get the US involved. Iran will be next unless there is retaliation
Ukraine - or rather, the Ukranian people - have already lost the war against Russia by basically every important metric. They have lost tens of thousands of soldiers, millions have emigrated, their domestic assets have been completely sold to and looted by American capitalists, and they are still likely to lose militarily. Ukraine will not recover for decades. But Zelensky and his ilk keep getting richer by selling off the country and the lives of the people to the American war machine, and the American capitalists keep getting richer by having a massive demand for their weapons and gathering information about the Russian military. Just fucking end the war, please.
The effort to bring her into the pantheon of neoliberal heroes was crazy. They had her speak at the UN and meet with so many politicians, and so clearly tried to get her on their side. But she actually has values, so she couldn't become another prop for them. Fucking based.

Disclosure Day is a pretty goofy movie. But it has the aliens that look like
, which always make me laugh. I loooooove when an alien is a little grey guy with a big head. It only could have been better if the aliens were just guys in extremely cheap rubber alien masks.
