I'm in the same boat. Lean in to "basic" geography and challenge Trump directly to "name that country" with blank political maps of ME.
Sucks, man.
Unironically this could be a useful way to make the war less popular
Map if the the above mentioned three countries imposed over the the US.
Iran pink, Iraq red, Afghanistan green
Ok I knew Iran was big but I didn’t know it’s larger in size than Alaska, which seems a pertinent data point
I believe so
You might think this is condescending but “Iran is near the Strait of Hormuz” and “all the world’s oil has to go through the Strait of Hormuz” are facts that were apparently not raised in the Oval Office
Nobody should take messaging advice from me, but democrats might make a lot of mileage just by repeating facts about Iran like “it’s incredibly mountainous” and “there are 90 million Iranians”
Ok not to make light but the Bridgeton didn’t sink

So much history. The most history. You’ll be tired of history.
Oh fun
why has nobody else simply hit the button that removes Iran
I naively assume the “cool zone” is where everyone is hanging out drinking dew and doing sick kick flips?
A rough beast? Slouching toward Jerusalem? In this economy?
As colleagues and neighbors trek to Riyadh to catch flights to “safety”…

Trying to decide if it would be helpful or not if this were an in-world mechanic
A giant banner descends from the sky: “Chapter 10: THE COOL ZONE”
So Iran has the power to wreck the world economy, but that’s insufficient to deter the USA. Cool equilibrium
The meaning of precision in geographical degrees.
±100°: You don't know where it is.
±10°: You know it's on a specific continent.
±1°: You know it's within about an hour's drive.
±0.1°: You could bike to it.
±0.01°: You could walk to it.
±0.001°: You could probably see it.
Oh we now we’re posting

I’m from three months in the future, here to congratulate you on the great February jobs report. Oh, I forgot, you still think it’s bad
honestly if the administration was trying to install shohreh aghdashloo as the head of the iranian government it would factor favorably into my calculus
Here’s the post but can’t find it … I do covet your Baltic now

I can’t find the post but about a month ago people were talking about watches and somebody shared this beautiful watch with a green dial. I think it was square?. And I can’t find the photo. I think it was a side conversation off @professormusgrave.bsky.social post?
Anybody recall this?
Cool
i cannot get over how incredibly insane it is to think you can pull the same move you did on maduro against the entire regime of iran. in time this will be recognized as caligula-level insane. totally bonkers. hard to even fathom how someone could think this.
