I was just contemplating the same. Something like "via the dark arts of Socialism with Chinese Characteristics, billionaires are transformed into paper tigers".

When you come into my eye line
It ruins my mood every time
Just reading your name, I'm annoyed
Any stray thought of you and my
Lady bits start to feel like a
A rough unsanded poplar board

Democratic U.S. Rep. Jared Golden said Wednesday that he will vote for a resolution requiring President Donald Trump to end military operations in Iran, becoming the final member of Maine’s delegation to support such a measure.

Golden, who represents Maine’s 2nd District, had opposed several previous resolutions on Iran because he said the War Powers Act grants presidents 60 days to conduct military operations without congressional approval. But Golden said that the 60-day window closed on May 1.

“President Trump, like all his predecessors, has refused to recognize the limitations of the War Powers Act, but to me the law is clear,” Golden said in a statement. “His window for unilateral military engagement has closed. Hostilities, including the use of the U.S. fleet to impose a blockade of Iranian ports, cannot legally continue unless the president seeks, and wins, Congressional approval.”

GOOD POST!

The "population problem" narrative is just baby steps towards eco-fascism when the real problem is the devouring of resources by advanced capitalist systems. The USA consumes at 5x the per capita rate as the rest of the world for instance. This is often framed as a problem with regard to the development of the global south, which is just incredibly racist. "The lifestyle of USA is unsustainable if everyone else tries to do it too!" There's a complete lack of self-awareness that feeds into the construction of an Us-vs-Them perspective. This is just another iteration of the same "white man's burden" fascist fantasy.

Ultra-High Performance Concrete (UHPC), which contains powdered quartz

Iran's concrete has new-age crystal powers.

It perhaps says something about Iran's capabilities in concrete manufacturing that the DTRA has begun to examine other ways of dealing with bunkers rather than blowing them up. Ideas include electromagnetic pulses and robotic snakes equipped with warheads.

The mages of the western dogs are scrambling to find effective spells and curses against these sophisticated warding magicks.

In 2024, a jury convicted Guo of stealing hundreds of millions from his followers. The New Federal State of China, the harbor ceremony, the nonprofits, and the media companies were all part of an elaborate con Guo used to “lock in” those supporters before hitting them up for investments, prosecutors said a sentencing memo last week.

Guo, who has been jailed as a perceived flight risk since his March 2023 arrest, continues to deny guilt. His lawyers argue, in their own sentencing memo, that his conviction was the result of the Chinese government’s “relentless and overwhelmingly powerful targeting of him.” The memo also suggests, without evidence, that Guo’s support for Trump, in particular his role in the publication of explicit pictures of Hunter Biden prior to the 2020 election, contributed to his prosecution.

Police reported that the latest incident occurred on Saturday at a Target store on Southwest College Road, where a teen drove a lawnmower through the store, damaging a door. Authorities identified Janek Szkaradek as the driver and Luke Charske as the person who recorded the stunt.

Authorities say the video was intended for social media, but the behavior created a dangerous situation for customers and employees inside the store.

The investigation revealed a second incident the night before at a Culver’s on the same road. Police stated Szkaradek went inside the restaurant and used a leaf blower indoors, again as part of a filmed stunt. Authorities said this disrupted business and raised safety issues.

“These actions endangered people and caused property damage. They are crimes, not harmless videos,” police issued a statement urging others to consider carefully before trying similar acts.

Found this while randomly searching for "playertariat". I thought maybe I had spontaneously created a new word in a badposting comment, but seem like I'm too late by a few years.

Never played this game, but I think I get the idea of the post more or less.

... "tankies are always right too early".

Due to the meta-analytical tools of historical and dialectical materialism having strong predictive effects over decade timescales, and the significant delays in analysis precipitated by neoliberal focusing on the present status quo, a factor of asynchronicity spontaneously develops between the future-prescience of "tankies" that is disorienting to the neoliberal constructed present-focused perception.
