U.S. has used 'virtually all' of its long-range precision missiles during Iran war: Reuters
Something I see often in my work- our social safety net seems to be made intentionally complex to discourage its use.

I like this because it makes me reminisce about all the wars we won using air and sea power alone.
“.. The U.S. is planning for a wider war,” said one U.S. official familiar with internal administration discussions, adding that the Pentagon was increasing the number of military aircraft in the region. @washingtonpost.com www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...
People keep talking about “AQI” and my brain immediately goes to the wrong place.
“Usually when people are sad, they don't do anything. They just cry over their condition. But when they get angry, they bring about a change.” —Malcolm X
Is this the invisible hand we were looking for?
The White House launched 25 Freedom Fuel gas stations, all selling fuel at $3.47 a gallon.
I get the same feeling as when I’m standing in the back of the room and the new lieutenant is giving their first operations order.
Trump: "The roadside bomb is a bomb that goes on when you're driving your little around, and it goes on and you have no legs, no arms, and no face"
I can’t believe folks stayed with Platner after seeing his cover up tattoo didn’t completely cover up his Nazi tattoo. Dead giveaway!
Wait. These surveillance tools on every corner in my city can be used for evil?!
A Florida police officer met a woman on a TV set, surveilled her for weeks, stalked her, and nearly caused a head-on collision while chasing her to pull her over.

Just finished, and greatly enjoyed, Psych from @paulbloomatyale.bsky.social. I recommend it for anyone interested in psychology or philosophy. I think I’ll start a PhD in psychology.
The case Republicans make to end birthright citizenship is disgusting, but the case Democrats make to keep it is incredible thin - it’s mostly “Republicans bad and gross.” We must add depth about why this tradition, uncommon outside of the Americas, makes us special and why it should be retained.
They want to convince their followers that we are un-American, in the wrong country. But it’s them. THEY are in the wrong country. Their goals, plans, ideology are no less than an insurrection against the Second Founding - the constitutional framework for our country created after the Civil War.
Live a life that is so rooted in love that no matter how much power someone has, they are still incapable of convincing you to hate other human beings.
Settling down for a nap while the Mandelbaum episode plays. I spent Father’s Day on a 9.5 hour round trip to attend the funeral for a friend’s father. The theme of the father’s life was “show up.” Show up for your family, your community, and your people. Keep showing up.

I like it when people show courage when they still have something to lose.
Senator Bill Cassidy unloads on Trump and the Iran war: “Worst foreign policy blunder in decades” (!)
As a therapist serving people living around the poverty line, I gotta say things aren’t great. People are feeling the financial squeeze in ways totally unrecognized by folks in my middle class bubble. We aren’t anywhere near pitchforks and torches, but we aren’t trending in a positive direction.
Nice thing to see on my way home.
Fuck AI.
