What's happening in Iran?
This is amazing watching the possibility of Iran's regime toppling. There's a good chance they can survive this, but it's also a puncher's chance of happening and that would be amazing for everyone.

The GQP: Trumpist Death Cult
I don't understand this one at all. People are pretending to be in elementary school again by reciting the Pledge of Allegiance and that's a flex?

RFK Jr. off the chain and off his rocker
RFK reminds me of that one person in your family who is super conscious about some things and has a good intention on some things (e.g. my kids can't have red dye and no way do we do refined sugar and hyperprocessed foods) but then it cuts the other direction pretty crazy (e.g. vaccinations cause autism, etc.). But I do think SOME things he says are actually sane when it comes to diet.

RFK Jr. off the chain and off his rocker
I said this in another thread, but I was in a crappy part of town in the 'hood and chanced upon a dollar general or family general, one of the big chains. They even had a little produce section with whole food and a mister going to keep the food from drying out. I was actually flabbergasted. If even food deserts in the hood can get some healthy food, thatj's a good thing.

Greenland - Tassa Eller Asu !!!!
The opposition party that came second in last year’s Greenland election is more open to dialogue with the US. The party’s leader remarked this week, “the US can’t do anything to us that Denmark hasn’t done already.” The Danish Defence Intelligence Service labeled the US a security risk last year. I really am starting to think a deal gets done.

Trump’s America
Trump is retro, apparently. The US the world thought it knew looks gone. Or perhaps more accurately, the pre-WWII US is now back: exceptionalist, transactional, and unapologetic. Or maybe this was always there, just behind a more benign and internationalist veneer. "Maybe this augurs some new golden age in America — Greenlanders and Danes be damned. But history shows the US can suffer hubris, and with big flexes against Iran, Venezuela, and Greenland, Donald Trump does seem a tad close to the sun."

Trump/MAGA has ruined sports
I like it. I also like when Mario Cristobal or Carson Beck or Trinidad Chambliss talk about God and Jesus as the first thing they do after they win, before talking about the X's and O's.

Things not going well in Venezuela
I hear you. I just think we are seeing that political power and history, well...it doesn't repeat but rhymes as they say. Much like fashion and trends, it seems like there is a cyclical "come back" of styles and we are certainly in our Brat Boi Winter era as a country.

Popular comedians that are not funny. I’ll start : Bert Kreischer
You can dislike or not like Chapelle's POV's, but he's absolutely doing the public intellectual / social commentary stuff and it's awesome. I'm watching George Carlin right now and it's well-scripted, smart, dark social commentary like you said. But it's actually not funny at all.

RFK Jr. off the chain and off his rocker
In another stunning "a broken clock is right twice a day" I actually don't hate RFK's newest announcment on nutrition guidelines pushing more protein and whole foods and less processed food and sugar. Just like his phobia for food dyes and chemicals, this is actually a good thing in a vacuum IMO. Thoughts from resident nutritionists? Adults should consume 1.2 to 1.6 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight daily—50% to 100% higher than previous guidelines—from red meat, poultry, seafood, eggs, dairy, or plant sources. A new “healthy fats” section favors full-fat dairy over low-fat options and recommends cooking with olive oil, butter, or beef tallow. Highly processed carbohydrates like white bread are a big no-no for the first time. Whole grains are recommended, but they’re depicted as the smallest portion of the pyramid. No added sugar until age 10 (up from age 2). Adults should also avoid it and artificial sweeteners, including the aspartame in your Diet Coke. Reactions: The American Medical Association approved, while the American Heart Association raised concerns that the guidelines could lead to overconsumption of sodium, protein, and saturated fats. -- All in all, pretty reasonable!

Things not going well in Venezuela
I'll channel my inner briskettexan here. "Have you not being paying attention the last 100 years? There is NO International law. It never existed! It was just some made up, dressed up shell cover for hard US power. It hasn't been international law stopping China from invading Taiwan all these years it's been the US seventh fleet. Same as it ever was!"
