I guess Grok edition of Odyssey will be even more Tom of Finland-ish than the 300...

A black Helen of Troy has him completely wrecked for weeks.

Good thing the Congress is not alive to see it.

🇺🇸❗️FT: Trump is preparing to impose new tariffs on dozens of countries as early as this week, ahead of the expiration of the current temporary 10% global tariff on Friday. Most of the new tariffs are expected to remain around 10%

A father in Idaho, speaking to police after his child died by suicide: “There is a huge amount of animosity, every single day, thrown at trans kids. The whole fucking country. The whole fucking administration, every single fucking day.” Please read this important story by @joyurcaba.bsky.social

Idaho pushed anti-trans laws for years. Then a teen died.

The life and death of May Pollard, 16, provides a window into the tragic effect that legislation and political rhetoric have had on trans people in America.

I'll be interviewing one of the survivors that attended the Blanche meeting this Sunday at noon PT on the @meidastouch.com YouTube channel. I'll post a link here Sunday morning.

A source tells MS NOW that Todd Blanche told Epstein survivors during their meeting, "The FBI has the power to open investigations, not me." "I'm just the attorney general," Blanche added.

I thought he'd be busy writing something to the tune of "Lindsey Graham and Mitch McConnell lead us to more questions about Joe Biden's health"

TAPPER: Iran has declared the Strait of Hormuz closed. Is that true? TRUMP: It's open as far as we're concerned. Don't talk about it. Talk about the reason you asked me to speak.

welcome to the Age of Diarrhea

❗️Russians killed the last (!) resident of the village of Tokarivka Druha on the border of the Kharkiv region, — MVA A 57-year-old woman worked at the Dergachiv Central Hospital — yesterday she was hit by a Russian FPV drone while she was walking along the road.

44 days rowing alone across the vast, deep blue? That's crazy and TBF scary as heck. Hats off to her!

It has been criminally underreported but Kelsey Pfendler has just rowed solo across the Pacific Ocean from the US coast to Hawaii in record time. A 2,400-mile unsupported journey in 43 days, 17 hours, and 55 minutes. Notably beating the Men’s record by 9 whole days.

Seems this should have been a clear sign there ARE things...

Hayes: Are there texts, photos, floating around that will hurt the campaign in October? Are you worried about that? Platner: I'm not worried about it. There may be things out there but they're from before I was public figure and got into politics. My journey is one of transformation.

Stavropol Krai overnight 🚗🦅💥

Looking at the US right now, seems Senate Democrats should try to pervform the Rite of Askh-Ente to ask the big guy.... He should know. Unless he's currently having a Near McConnell Experience. Just pick the time right.

LMAO -- Fox News is again broadcasting from Trump's state fair and again there is *nobody* there. I've seen fairs in rural parking lots with more attendees than this.

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away....

Israel has killed Al Jazeera Journalist Ahmed Wishah in Gaza. They have killed at least 260 journalists since October 7, 2023, according to the Committee to Protect Journalists. I’m getting tired of saying it, but outlets that don’t actively speak out against this are not worth your time or money.

Whoever sits at the Weather Machine controls for Prague, can you please switch h to "Summer"? Seems previous shift put it on "Inferno " by mistake.

Let's break up the gloom with bits of nature :) #summer #nature #drone #Prague

People love to make fun of Pete Hegseth, but he's the first Secretary of War (the "crimes" is silent) to never lose a bottle!

So it seems both Russia and USA lost a strategic bomber today...

Ukrainian rescue workers reveal aftermath of Russia's Shahed strike on historic Kyiv monastery – photos, video

Russia has attacked a UNESCO heritate church Metropolitan Epiphanius of Kyiv&All Ukraine:One more Russian crime against humanity,against history, against Christianity -the roof of one of the holiest places in the Christian world is burning - the Assumption Cathedral of the Pechersk Lavra in #Kyiv."

😡 In Kharkiv, Russians attacked rescuers while they were extinguishing a fire. 💔 As a result of the second attack, at least 5 employees of the State Emergency Service were killed and 5 more were injured, - Interior Minister Ihor Klymenko

So worse deal than JCPOA, for much higher cost, esp. in lives. And actually strengthening the IRGC. Well played. In any case how long will the ceasefire survive?

In other words: the U.S. gives Iran everything it wants immediately, including billions in cash, for a pinky promise to negotiate a future deal on the things the U.S. wants

We have to remember our past. The good, the bad, the ugly.

Around 800 German civilians were massacred by Czechoslovak soldiers at Postoloprty in 1945. Today, Czech students are carrying their names on a 15km memorial march. The Sudetenland remains a landscape of memory. robjcameron.substack.com/p/sudetenland

It’s been a long night, 5 people were killed, 25 were injured. The number of victims is increasing due to the Russian attack on Dnipro, - OVA 23 people were hospitalized. Among them is a 13-year-old girl.

Russian artillery shelling of Kherson killed a man. His wife and two daughters, aged six and three, were injured - they suffered blast injuries and shrapnel wounds. The family was at a children's playground at the moment of the attack. Horrible.

Random thought: The US administration is full on Chaos, but... Who seves which of the Chaos deities? I mean RFK Jr. is clearly Nurgle's, Kegseth is Khorne, Trump is Slanesh... But what about the others? :)

Following the recent discourse on Odyssey casting, I am darkly amused how the guys all up in arms about it ignore the lore :D (And ignore the casting of all those square jawed barbarians from far North as Greek heroes)
