Xi: "We must avoid the Thucydides Trap." Dear Leader: "Yeah, I almost caught that at Studio 54."
Wait... did Greenland and Denmark just... make money off this nonsense?
US to build two military bases in Greenland under new deal with Denmark
The defence deal signed at the UN General Assembly also re-affirms Denmark's sovereignty over its semi-autonomous Arctic territory.

In addition to drones and snipers the Triumphal Arch will become the legs of a giant Robo-Natalie that will protect the city if Godzilla attacks.
For the record, we just lost 60 aircraft to Iranian attacks on US airbases. But this is important too, I guess.
MeidasTouch@meidastouch.com · last wk.NEWS: The Pentagon has announced mandatory low-testosterone screenings for male troops 30 and older, including screening for symptoms such as “reduced libido, loss of spontaneous morning erections, erectile dysfunction,” and other symptoms.
This is a grotesque spectacle. What are we even doing?

I actually do believe that AI will kill us all in 10 years, but it's going to do it with, like, terrible medical advice and shitty code.
Plot twist: we're all going to get 5,000 bucks worth of Trumpcoin
Fiskers don't make noise when they start up, just so you know
Thank goodness they're bringing that old Kushner/Witkoff magic to Ukraine, after all their success in the Middle East
He's getting ready for witness protection. You should see it with the moustache. "I am Don Fernando. I love the taco bowls at Trump Tower."

This is probably the best thing that I've read today. Live your life in such a way that Alex Gibney never feels compelled to make a movie about you!

Hey remember that guy Mitch McConnell? Whatever happened to him?
Oh sure, someone posts a picture of a polydactyl cat and everyone's like, "Aw, toe beans!" But post one picture of a six fingered sailor and everyone loses their minds!
The US is shipping Milo Yiannopolous and the Tate boys back to the UK? They're gonna close their border.
What's happening with Milo Yiannopoulos is, of course, funny as hell but it doesn't change the fact that ICE shouldn't exist
I don't think I've ever seen such a universal outpouring of love for a late celebrity. And she deserves it. I think, for the next few weeks at least, in tough situations we should all ask ourselves, "What would Dolly do?" And do it. Even if it means wearing pink rhinestones and a huge hairdo.
I want pictures! Pictures of Spider-Man!
Kev Moore@kevmoore.bsky.social · last mo.If this isn’t voted Photo of the Year I shall eat my comic collection.
Everyone's wondering if Natalie's using Dear Leader but I'm wondering if it's the other way around. I can easily see him getting "forgetting" to book her a room a Mar-a-Lago, or a spot in the motorcade and then getting off on her madcap gyrations to stay in his proximity.
If he had even a microscopic sense of humour or a shred of self-awareness, he would have closed this post with, "Looks like meat's back on the menu boys!"
Angry@angrystaffer.bsky.social · last mo.I wonder why 90 days. Couldn’t be because the midterms are in… 74 days, right? Right? Apparently communist price controls are fine when you’re trying to get votes. Who knew?
Maybe we need to explain the USS Abraham Lincoln situation in terms Hegseth can understand. "Mr. Secretary, are you aware that some of our brave warfighters aren't hitting their macros?"
If you've never seen it, rectify that immediately.
Rafe Meager (they/them)@economeager.bsky.social · last mo.I finally saw Children of Men (2006) and it is indeed one of the best films ever made! even with all the hype it vastly exceeded my expectations. insane. immediate top 10 entry for me, I think. like this is what cinema is for. what a day. what a day.
Oh lordy watching Farage strut around and go on about his "ringing endorsement from the people of Clacton" is the funniest shit I've ever seen. My dude, you ran against a guy with a garbage can on his head.
”You have my sword.” ”And my bow.” ”And my axe.” ”And my twig.”

Firmly convinced that Andrew Tate's "screaming cannibal" cell mate is just a guy who's in for something like wire fraud but told Andy he was a cannibal to freak him out. "Oh, yeah, I ate, like, 39 dudes. At least."
