Nothing, I mean NOTHING, is too small for U.S. culture to declare a "war" on it.
This is taken from a foot away with my phone. This groundhog sits in my garden, eating my garden, and when I ask him to leave he acts offended. I'm thinking of naming him "Israel."
According to the @NYTimes the problem with abusing Iran's soccer team was that that's politics, not sports, and one should go mentally blank, drink up, dress up, and indulge in sports. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/01/o...
Trump says to stop listening to his BS and follow the money like some have urged for many years now.
WWIII promotion marketed as mature conflict resolution. Just stop attacking Iran and go away and it'll be easily openable, you war-addict.
As we prepare to celebrate that @NYTimes published an article pointing out that war on Iran will cost trillions, even conceding that some in U.S. MIGHT care that tens of millions of others go hungry, we should also note that it pretends that deaths and injuries will only start if U.S. troops invade.
When I took this photo in Caracas, to my right was Thiago, and on the other side of him the son of the kidnapped president of Venezuela. Now Thiago has been kidnapped by Israel. Kidnapping and imprisoning is a horrendous crime. #FREEPALESTİNE #Sumud #ThiagoÁvila
He's never removed or impeached or prosecuted but he's constantly "ripped" and "savaged" and "shredded"

Give this guy all your top secrets @CIA Anyone who can write a column about the one path to victory in the @nytimes.com and never tell you what it is can surely keep secret how many kids he's killing.
Dead flesh produced with sadistic cruelty, horrendous environmental destruction, and grains that could have fed 10 times as many people is not a NECESSITY. @theguardian.com
I feel like there's something outrageous Trump is doing that the No Kings Rallies have forgotten, but I can't quite put my finger on it. #NoKings
