It is absolutely insane that the US appears to have targeted desalination plants first – putting them onto the board. Iran seems to have already retaliated against one in Bahrain. This is one of the most obvious ways this could spiral.
I guess the stock market may soon be low enough to actually release all the unreacted Epstein files

a Free Press headline, Why Is No One Having Sex? https://www.thefp.com/p/why-is-no-one-having-sex
The Free Press is discovering new levels of Telling On Yourself that scientists previously thought could not exist
Noted psychoanalyst Don Carveth wrote, “The point of analysis is to get over yourself.” Yet, I can’t tell you why I believed I wasn’t allowed to settle and just love one thing, trying to perfect it. Perfectionism’s healthy form is a love language. www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/perf...
I don’t know who needs to hear this but listening to an audio book absolutely counts as “reading” a book.
In fact, I’d argue that listening to an author read their own work aloud is an exceptionally magical and even holy experience.
I love it so much. Especially as my eyesight gets worse.
Rep Ted Lieu speaking at a congressional hearing
Ted Lieu: “Were there any underage girls at that party or any party that Trump attended with Epstein”
Pam Bondi: “There is no evidence that Trump has committed a crime”
Ted Lieu: “I believe you just lied under oath”
Imagine a President bulldozing 1/3 of our Historic White House pocketing $300 million and that doesn’t even crack the top 100 most destructive, vile, disgusting things he’s done, yet here we are

I tried to take a photo of a grasshopper on my windshield, but now it looks like a gigantic bug destroying the town.
When you get visited by three Puerto Rican ghosts
Imagine if this administration put the same effort into stopping school shootings.
OK "god bless america" and then naming every country in the americas from south to north is absolute king shit
Was driving my kids to school and the first thing on the radio was reporting about Trump's video depicting the Obamas as apes and I think many people still don't fully appreciate what it means to have to raise Black children in a country where the president is so brazenly and consistently racist
so much clothing is marketed as "conversation starters" but as an introvert, i want "conversation enders." no more talking. let me go home.
Our founders, though deeply flawed, understood that democracy requires an informed citizenry and a government accountable to it people. That’s why the press is the only profession protected by the Constitution. It’s also why autocrats and oligarchs seek to control and destroy it.
i am trying not to joke about the Epstein stuff because it's so horrible but there's also this ridiculous element where it's like... discovering Dracula is real, he's taken over human society at the highest levels, he's involved in tons of evil and also he's a huge dipshit
