A military guy named Spider was talking to the anchor on CNN and he used "attrit" for attrition warfare. He seriously seemed joyful as he described "what Israeli's proportional response should be." I thought of some lyrics...

Woah, generals and majors always / Seem so unhappy 'less they got a war

A full-scale war is indeed bad but...

Jonathan Panikoff, the director of the Scowcroft Middle East Security Initiative at the Atlantic Council...

“A full-scale war, or even a more limited one, could be devastating for Lebanon, Israel, and the region. But from it, unexpected opportunities will also come — to undermine Iranian malign influence in the region, for example, by actively impeding its efforts to reconstitute Hezbollah. And a new administration should be prepared to take advantage of them."

Ghoulish fuckers must revel in their fantasies of mass death and suffering.

I posted that before I read the next paragraph. Holy mother of fuck.

That is what old wars and hot wars do. They create new power dynamics, vacuums to be filled.

"Oh, Janet. It's been rough."

"What happened?"

"First a punchcard error made BunchOfDots crash. And then a disk error corrupted LadderClimb."

Kamala could modernize the plan and have AI run everything for an even greater cost savings.

DC Democrats

That makes me laugh because I use that phrase myself all the time at Hexbear to poke fun at how the DC dems don't do anything.

I edited this...

[In a Truth Social vid post Mr. Trump said...]

“Almost 200 grams of gold and more than 100 real diamonds. That’s a lot of diamonds... I love gold. I love diamonds. We all do.”

Mr. Trump was referring to the most expensive watch in the collection, the Trump Victory Tourbillon. The 18-karat gold model features a partly skeletonized dial and Mr. Trump’s engraved signature. It has the word “Trump” on the dial where, say, “Rolex” might ordinarily appear. The price: $100,000.
