As much as it pains me to say it, Bush may come out of this looking like a genius backing the takedown of Iraq’s dictatorship. The Iraqi population hate their government and Iraq right now has no friends in the Middle East. Iraq has never been weaker

I spent a chunk of this episode talking about IVF - the cost, Trump’s fraudulent promises to make it “affordable,” his propaganda during the SOTU, and what actually is being offered on TrumpRX. Spoiler: it sucks & makes me sad podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/i...

As a heads up this is disinfo. The rifle used is suspected to have been a 30.06. Turan (the company that makes the pictured bullet) only makes up to 5.56 rifle caliber rounds. So unless the feds are wrong about the caliber of the rifle they found (unlikely) this can't be an explanation.

1890s-1920s, 1950s-1970s, 2000s-2025 are all periods where new spiritual ideas and conspiratorial thought have flourished. each of these periods represent not just great technological change but mass social upheaval. they’re periods where political ideas mingle with spiritualism and conspiracy.

when the old world starts to die people naturally grasp for something new to order their new world. too often that energy is spent on conspiracy and woowoo beliefs. we need to channel that energy into building a better world rather than creating new spooks comfort ourselves.

like what are we doing here? your grandma shouldn’t have to contend with this shit!

i respect thinking the trump is dead thing is kind of funny but it’s also further exposing just how conspiratorial the average american is getting.

well the discussion around this shooting is going about as swimmingly as expected. trans shit aside, my god nobody with influence is capable of talking about let alone understanding the detached nihilism and niche online culture that spawns these murders.

It's not even just left anti-communism; it's left stupid ultra-pacifism. You can have violent defense of the people as an anarchist; the whole thrust of anarchism in this is that it shouldn't be an entrenched, separate class that gets extra perks. That is entirely viable and within anarchism still.

funny how liberals have adopted the mental health argument. that was a fox news ass argument 10 years ago. not that i totally agree with other liberal positions on gun control but targeting the specter of ‘violent lunatics’ certainly ain’t it. see also: every other social issue

The New York City mass shooter had been diagnosed with multiple mental illnesses and had been the subject of two "mental health holds" in Las Vegas, but none of that limited his legal right to own firearms.

I got interviewed by KNPR, the local Vegas NPR affiliate, and they put the interview in their Desert Companion magazine. I'll post the web version when it's out

When meditating on images of death and destruction from the Second World War, it’s important we don’t lose sight of the most consequential part of that horrible conflict, tanks and their overlapping non-interleaved steel-rim roadwheel arrangement.
