Hegar

Bombable locations often have air raid sirens to alert personnel to seek shelter.

A "tactical operation center that was fortified" ought to have such a thing, whereas a "makeshift operations center at a civilian port in Kuwait" is much less likely to.

The lack of warning speaks to the lies and poor planning of hegseth and other regime goons.

I don't think it's the friendship he wants people to stop talking about though, i suspect it's all the children he raped.

"Only I stole this fairly" has been the motto of oligarchs for millenia.

The state is just an institution of violence-control.

Inflicting violence and restricting others' access to violence is literally all it does. Everything from zoning laws to welfare serves that sole purpose.

Rum, Sodomy and the Lash by the Pogues. Seemless blending of punk and traditional irish music that's still as raw and refined today as ever.

Pretty much anything by the Velvet Underground. They're the quintessential "barely anyone came to their shows but everyone who did started a band" band.

Early Pixies - Surfer Rosa or Come on Pilgrim. Basically no grunge otherwise.

Probably everything by Sun Ra, but his earliest wrangling of electronic keys into jazz in like the 40s or whatever seems pretty consequential. Plus probably no P-funk as we know it without Sun Ra, which has heaps of knock on effects.

No good outcome is possible from two brutal murdeous authoritarian regimes attacking a third.

titled “snipe hunt is over, moon crickets in field bag”. Epstein then clarifies that “Guess what? They’re n*****s”.

That's the entire email. Nine word subject and a four word body.

there appears to be no doubt that Epstein is referring to killing Black people

I just don't think that's correct - it sounds like a metaphor for grifting some people. I'm not saying he wouldn't be capable of killing black people, but i don't think this email proves it happened.

There was a solid, enforcable, internationally recognized deal that all credible experts agree was working and keeping iran's nuclear industry civilian. Whatever happened to that?

several incidents of this kind have been reported, including two in 2022. In one case, a speedboat coming from the United States fired on Cuban Border Guard forces near Villa Clara, injuring a Cuban officer.

The other incident took place in Bahía Honda, in western Cuba, when a vessel also coming from the United States collided with an Interior Ministry patrol boat, causing the U.S. craft to sink and killing several of its occupants.

Authorities on the island frequently report finding abandoned or seized speedboats along the northern coast (Ciego de Ávila, Villa Clara, Havana), commonly used to pick up potential migrants. They describe these operations as “territorial violations and human trafficking.”

Aw boo.

It's the spitoons that really make it.

But I don't do anything unless prompted by a human.
