I liked it. Slick, but characterful. If that's a word.

How to create an insurgency. No nuance.
Ben Stiller is calling out the White House after it used a clip from Tropic Thunder in a video promoting the Iran war.
βWe never gave you permission and have no interest in being part of your propaganda machine. War is not a movie,β Stiller wrote.
Oh dear, no.
Michael Mann would kill for this shot:
How I arrived on Blue Sky:
Mowed the lawn. It was very shaggy, ground still quite wet. But! First fully clear blue sky in ages! Birds are singing in the trees, including the one who impersonates car sirens. Spring is coming.
Historian here history first time as tragedy the second time as farce.
That is why Spain is against this disaster, because we understand that governments are here to improve peopleβs lives, to provide solutions to problems, not to make peopleβs lives worse. And it is absolutely unacceptable that those leaders who are incapable of fulfilling that task make use of war to hide their failure whilst filling the pockets of a fewβthe usual ones.

"We don't do duvets!"
Can we quit this habit of making superhero suits look like repurposed motorbike leathers, please? If the Winter Olympics proved anything, it's how great spandex can look.

The home heating oil situation is terrible for many unlucky enough to be about to refill. The outrage is this is an unregulated, unprotected, market (we've long called for that to change). We are subserving many, especially those who live in rural communities.
Kristi Noem on her first day as Special Envoy for the Shield of the Americas
"Europe can deal with our mess."
Going against maritime law. America is, together with multiple other actions, showing it is as much a rogue state as any of its "enemies of the day".

It is genuinely possible that Kristi Noem is giving a live speech right now while completely unaware that the President has just fired her by tweet.
Andrew Tate getting his wish to eat a packed lunch on a rollercoaster
It's niche, but I'm very proud of it :D

Keep in mind we already know the US-IDF alliance is committing war crimes, lying about casualties, lying about imminent threats, lying about timelines. And keep in mind the UK confirms the Cyprus strike came from Lebanonβnot Iran. Hezbollah has even *less* reason to anger the UK.
Globalisation is under threat from Iran war β and Britain is uniquely vulnerable
