OK, small point here, but it’s almost certain he meant “parameters of a deal,” but he can’t spell and is very dumb, so he used “perimeters of a deal” and news orgs are just running with it like that’s a perfectly normal thing to say, which it absolutely is not. That’s not a thing anybody says.

BREAKING: Trump pauses attacks on Iran, citing “perimeters of a deal” that would end Tehran’s “nuclear threat” and reopen the Strait of Hormuz.

When my wife did chemo and radiation, she would go outside once or twice a day and shed the hair as it all fell out. Today, seven months later, we just found a nest a bird (likely a wren) made out of her hair.

The degree to which Facebook feeds me Robyn Hitchcock content is insane considering I am utterly indifferent about Hitchcock and have never posted about him or interacted with a post about him. Is there a dark money Robyn Hitchcock propaganda apparatus at play here?

Quick thinking having a tablecloth handy. I didn’t even notice the twitching from that dead robot.

This reminds me of a painting made by Aleksandr Deyneka, a Soviet realist painter. It was made in 1943, at the height of World War Two. It depicts a German pilot falling to his death, out of a downed plane. Though it depicts Soviet victory, it doesn't revel in death. War is hell. It's a crime.

The Knocked Down Ace - Alexander Deineka. A German pilot falls out of his aircraft, which has been shot down and is crashing. He falls towards upturned girders and a messy death. He looks young, like a sleeping child.

The NC State Courts Facebook page just posted this, and hooooooboy… Either someone carelessly posted the first quote about juries they found or we have a hero anarchist infiltrating the ranks of our far-right state court administration. (The quote is from Lysander Spooner’s essay “Trial by Jury.”)

A post on the Facebook account of the North Carolina judicial branch that has a photo of an empty Jury box in a courtroom and the text jurors “must judge of the existence of the law of the true exposition of the law and the admissibility and weight of all the evidence offered, otherwise, the government will have everything its own way.“ though not credited in the post this quote comes from Lysander Spooners essay trial by Jury.Another quote from Lysander Spooners essay trial by Jury. This quote advocates that juries test laws for their just nature and morality and that they do not apply laws that they think are unjust.

Per this reporting from the NYTimes, it appears that 4 military personnel were killed over the last week. 3 in Jordan killed during Iranian missile strikes (one was the previously missing soldier) and one in Iraq who was killed by shrapnel during the “controlled” detonation of an Iranian drone.
