Why is Silicon Valley always at war with our privacy and dignity? This predatory crap would not happen if we had European-style privacy laws. That the information brokerage industry even exists, and that our most personal details are commodified and sold, is disgusting.
Good job, Canada! Don’t take any shit. At least half of the US understands that Trump is in the wrong and he is being abusive with our best friend and ally. The Americans who have morals and common sense stand with Canadians. Keep fighting the good fight.
Russian propaganda every time someone discovers a Russian plot to sabotage infrastructure or elections in the West: "BUT LOOK HOW EVIL THE JEEEWWWS ARE!"
How many weekends has he done this? He is pumping and dumping around the opening and closing of the stock market and playing with Iranians like this is some sort of video game. People are dying, this is no game and he is an idiot and no leader.
High testosterone hasn't tipped the balance in warfare since the Paleolithic Age. Technology, logistics, intelligence, public relations, skill and strategy are needed to win wars in 2026. War is a PHENOMENALLY complicated endeavor. But good luck explaining that to a caveman.
💯 Putin has been using and directing migrant populations across and throughout Europe to stretch and hurt governments, with an ongoing eye to driving wedges between EU nations. Much of the migration traffic Europe deals with is instigated by Russian propaganda, offers and straight up bribes.
Whoever is behind this latest episode of Migration Theater in Spain also orchestrated the mass influx of Venezuelans into the USA before the 2024 election and the 2021 Belarus–EU border crisis. It’s always a feint to help far-right parties win elections. I’ll give you a hint.
A bait and switch - standard Trump operating procedure. Trump wanted the photo-op with Zelensky to help the GOP in the midterm elections but he doesn’t ACTUALLY want Ukraine to win the war. Like everything else about Trump, his change of heart was all fake. Trump works for Putin
No one can ever believe anything Trump pledges, says or puts in writing. With Trump, a deal is never a deal and nobody can count on the US for anything while he’s president. His word is garbage, agreements mean nothing, and he lies about everything.
My least libertarian position is that we should arm Ukraine. My most pro-freedom position is that we should arm Ukraine.
The GOP made sure to end the Medicare subsidies AFTER the midterms, because they already know how angry voters will be when premiums increase by $1,500 PER MONTH. This will cause real havoc, and it'll blow up right in the faces of the boomers who voted for Trump. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/28/b...
In the past week, Russia denied they are planning: 🔹Exit visas 🔹A new Iron Curtain 🔹Another mobilization after the September election Expect them to deny plans for martial law shortly. Reminder: "Do not believe *anything* until the Kremlin denies it ™" -- @darthputinkgb.bsky.social
North American NAFO problems: every night, same thing. I tell myself I will go to bed at a reasonable hour, but then the sun rises in Russia and my timeline gets flooded with videos of Russian shit on fire and I stay up cackling like a gargoyle. 🍿
🥰Wildberries burn very nicely.
It's crazy that we thought this man was stupid. Compared to the "leadership" we have now, he looks like a genius.
I know y'all old heads can feel this picture. Shit hurt 100 times more than rubbing alcohol. My grandparents used to put this on my cuts. This was banned in the US in 1998 because it contained mercury. However, it SHOULD have been banned under the Geneva Conventions for being a fucking war crime. 😫
Sitting here cutting up carrots for a bolognese sauce and it just occurred to me that I bought both this watch and this knife at Yodobashi in Japan. What an incredible place. I really wish we had a department store like that here in the USA.
This is a correct take. We cannot fall behind in drone warfare capabilities. The Chinese are likely already ahead of us in this technology.
😮😮😮🇺🇸🇺🇦
🇷🇴 The Romanian prosecutor's office officially confirmed that the drone shot down the day before was a Russian "shahed" The wreckage of the drone and the interceptor missile were submitted for examination.
You can enjoy a modern standard of living, or you can start a war with a very determined adversary. You cannot have both.
MAGA is supporting Ukraine now?! WHAT IS HAPPENING?! I really want to believe that they've seen the light and are trying to do the right thing. I want to. However, I'm jaded and cynical from years of dealing with narcissistic assholes. I have a hard time believing this change of heart is genuine.
