An oil tanker reportedly struck a naval mine and exploded in the Strait of Hormuz, according to Iranian media outlets linked to the IRGC, with no official confirmation from the US or Iran. I would imagine this incident scares off any company from trying to sail the Oman route now.

"TU Graz" on the image is Technische Universität Graz. In south-eastern Austria there is substantial risk of hail damage historically. It makes good sense to research these mitigation methods where some panel installations might benefit from mechanical protection.

He is a colossal loser who will never learn anything.

Text screenshot. It's human nature to assess difficult questions, not on the merits, but on our feelings about the different "teams" that form around different answers. To cite a painful personal experience: During the decision-making about the Iraq war, I was powerfully swayed by the fact that the proposed invasion of Iraq was supported by those who had been most right about the Cold War – and was most bitterly opposed by those who had been wrongest about the Cold War. Yet in the end, it is not teams that matter. It is results. As Queen Victoria's first prime minister bitterly quipped after a policy fiasco: "What wise men had promised has not happened. What the damned fools predicted has actually come to pass.

There comes a time when you have committed so many crimes and have so often falsely sued claiming lies, libel, and slander that the threat of legal action is simply neutered. None of these fail-suits will see a courtroom over fear of discovery and a humiliating loss.

The very stable genius is having a moment.

Screenshot of a social media post. Trey Yingst says President Trump suggested the US could control the Strait of Hormuz. Visible text reads: "President Trump told me the United States could become the 'Guardian Angel' of the Strait of Hormuz and take 20% of the oil. 'We may take over the Strait, if we have to,' President Trump told Fox News. 'I'll blow the sh*t out of them.' 'If they don't make a deal, we'll collect tolls.' The President said. President Trump spoke with the Iranians overnight warning them not to close the Strait. 'You close it and you won't have a country,' Trump said he told Iranian officials. 'You won't even make it back to your fu*king country.

The text reads: "What causes akathisia? Scientists don’t know the exact cause of akathisia, but they think it’s due to certain medications blocking dopamine receptors in your brain. Dopamine is a neurotransmitter that plays a role in many important body functions, including movement. The blocking ultimately results in unwanted involuntary movements. Several medications are associated with akathisia, including: Antipsychotic (neuroleptic) medications. Antidepressants. Other medications." Superimposed over the text is a large, bold, black graphic that says "Cocaine!" with a hand-drawn arrow pointing toward the list of medications.

I am so looking forward to the day they drive the fuel tankers up to the roof of the ballroom.

A social media post by Donald J. Trump, dated 31 May 2026, includes the text: "The DronePort at the White House Ballroom will be, perhaps, the most sophisticated anywhere in the World! It will safeguard our Nation's Capital, Washington, D.C., long into the future. Judge Richard Leon should stop playing games with America's Security! If anything happens, he will be held responsible for the Death and Destruction caused to our Country. He has already created enough problems by allowing 'Top Secret' information to be released and exposed based on a ridiculous lawsuit started by a highly litigious woman (serial plaintiff!) whose 'strolling,' in her opinion, will be disturbed by the new, desperately needed structure - In any event, a woman who has absolutely no STANDING! With the advent of highly sophisticated, and powerful, modern day weaponry, we can no longer defend Washington, D.C., with rifles and pistols, alone. This ridiculous lawsuit must be dismissed, IMMEDIATELY! President DONALD J. TRUMP." Below the text are two images labeled "DronePort" that show the White House roof covered in military aircraft and personnel. The first image shows fireworks and the Washington Monument in the background. The second image shows a sunset.

Trump is just channeling a Chris Farley character day after day. And... no chance that guy took a 120 question test of any kind. Zero chance. Nada.

A tweet by Donald J. Trump, @realDonaldTrump, reads, "The results of my Physical Examination, taken at Walter Reed Military Medical Center, and just released, were extremely good. Unlike other U.S. Presidents, none of whom have ever taken an approved, high difficulty, Cognitive Test, I scored a perfect 30 out of 30, considered 'extreme intelligence.' Are the Dumocrats really surprised? In fact, this is my fourth such test, all PERFECT or, 120 correct answers out of 120 questions asked! It is very rare that anyone gets a Perfect Score, especially when achieved four times in a row. All people running for President and Vice President should be forced to take high difficulty Cognitive Tests. Congress, and the Dumocrats, should demand it! President DONALD J. TRUMP" The tweet has 419 ReTruths and 1.53k Likes, and is dated 31 May 2026, 6:35 am.
