"Cool dude, see you in discovery!" is the obvious UNO Reverse card to Trump's attempts to bully organizations by suing them for a trillion dollars. It's a massive indictment of the US system that one after another institutions and major organizations settled and paid bribes rather than play it.

President Donald Trump is seeking to stave off a court order that requires him to begin giving the BBC financial details on his business empire by Thursday in connection with a defamation lawsuit he is pressing against the network. www.politico.com/news/2026/08...

Folks, the US lost to Iran, decisively, and there is no way to un-lose now by any practical means. The IRI is the hegemon of the Gulf Arabs now. The Strait of Hormuz will not be free again in my lifetime. Freedom of navigation is dead as international norm. He ruined the world. Best to make do.

I'm going for breakfast with my extremely fussy brother tomorrow-often sends food back. He doesn't know it yet but the place we're going changed its menu since last time and without even looking at the menu I'm going to ask for the Prusa which is whatever the kitchen feels like making. He'll squirm.

Okay, here’s a feature I just noticed that happens when I approach with my phone/fob. That’s pretty cool. It paints the Mustang logo on the ground beside the driver’s door in light.

On July 31, 1987, an F4 (possibly an F5) tornado hit the eastern parts of Edmonton and Strathcona County. It left 27 dead, injured 300 and caused $332 million in damages. This is the story of Black Friday. 📸 Steve Simon 🧵 1/12

The provided photo shows the iconic image of the 1987 Edmonton tornado, captured by photographer Steve Simon. It depicts a large, wedge-shaped funnel cloud descending from a dark storm sky, touching down over an industrial area known as Refinery Row in eastern Edmonton, Alberta. The tornado appears as a bright, contrasting formation against the blackened background, with buildings, utility poles, and structures visible in the foreground.

I got three hours of sleep last night and never ate until 6pm today so I am just gone. I’ve taken a Dayvigo (great sleeping pill) and am going to get nine hours before I tackle the Friday before a long weekend.

It’s not my instinct to believe Iran but I also don’t have to reason to believe them any less than the US & Israel. In conclusion the Middle East is a land of contrasting lies.

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi suggests the attack on Egypt was an Israeli “false flag” operation, while adding that Egypt is “an important friend and partner in the region” and that its security is of “utmost importance” to Iran.-Al Arabiya
