I seem to have rather unexpectedly gained some new followers recently. In the spirit of managing expectations, please understand that I will disappoint you in some way, and more likely sooner than later.

The UK has the same responsibility to Iran's embassy today that Iran had to the US embassy in 1979. I hope they take that seriously and discharge their responsibilities with the same professionalism that Iran did back in the day.
In phone conversation with the UK Foreign Secretary this evening, I made clear that the UK is per international legal obligations dutybound to ensure the safety and security of Iran's London Consulate and Embassy. If the UK cannot uphold its duty to protect diplomatic missions, Iran would be left with no choice but to consider evacuating our personnel. I also urged the UK to avoid interfering in Iran's internal affairs, including by continuing to refrain from taking action against Israeli-backed terrorists posing as news organizations. Ofcom has clear rules and regulations about the incitement of violence and glorification of terrorism. The UK Government must take action to ensure that its own domestic laws are upheld.

Happy St Crispin's day to all who celebrate it, and damnation to the French. And more importantly: happy birthday to my bro @xbradtc.

At this rate the Chinese are going to liberate Constantinople before the West ever gets around to it.
我要向印度道个歉,以前是我太大声了,确实印度还是不错的,文明古国,也有很多科技成就。 自从见识到了土耳其以后,我才发现什么才是人类道德和智力的洼地。对比之下真的印度真的是当之无愧的文明古国。 真的是一山还比一山高,强中自有强中手。 爱你,亲爱的邻居,印度

This is an assassination attempt. They're trying to give Justice Thomas an aneurysm. There's no other possible reason for writing something this utterly retarded.

Cook County argues resisting tyranny is not a valid purpose anymore, because the government will handle resisting tyranny for us.

I love everything about this scene. It's one of the greatest monologues ever from the greatest play and the best Shakespeare film. But the best part? Brian Blessed isn't wearing a costume. That's his own personal suit of armor. youtu.be/xaVD3iBz7CU

Apparently they couldn't find enough people in--checks notes--INDIA that wanted to operate a 7-11?
🚨 7-Eleven officially ended its India operations, shutting down all 31 stores.

Had the weirdest dream earlier. I'd stolen a Dodge Ram from a dealer and had to get it back to the ship for some reason because Shepherd Book needed a truck? And Paul Giamatti was there because of course he was. I wound up driving through a building and got stuck in an office.

Anyway, the cops had me at gunpoint and I was like welp, this sucks. Then I woke up. Very confusing.

New isn’t always better. Decline is possible. Innovation doesn’t always equal progress. Only better is better.

This is outstanding. It's on par with Happy Fun Ball and Old Glory Robot Insurance.
SNL took a commercial for a real psoriasis medication and turned it into a story about a mysterious force that may have existed before humanity. Ryan Gosling, Sarah Sherman and Ashley Padilla helped turn “Otezla” into one of those sketches that gets more ridiculous the longer you watch. Here’s how it works.

Convair: the Keltec of the aviation industry.
“Ok, anyone else have any ideas?” Convair: “We do.” “Is it completely mental?” Convair <bashfully>: “Ermmm, would a Mach 4 attack hydro-ski seaplane count as mental?”

Over the past little bit or so I've learned more about Jeanne d'Arc than I ever expected I'd want to know, and I've turned into a bit of a fan. This is appalling.
BREAKING: Foreign rioters are defiling French national and religious symbols. For the second time in less than 3 years, they are targeting the statue of Saint Joan of Arc in Paris

The man has demonstrated that he can take a ~250 ft tall, 300 ton rocket booster traveling at Mach 5 at ~300,000 ft altitude, reorient / decelerate it, and land it on a tower with a spatial and velocity error of < 1 m and < 1 m/s, and y’all retards are out here speculating that he must have faked a 4000 lb car doing a kick flip from rest at sea level. I’m sorry but you just don’t have any intuitive sense for physics or engineering difficulty. If you’ve seen a man piss through a keyhole 100 m away, you don’t need a conspiracy theory to explain how he manages to piss in a lake.
