The story I’ve been waiting for: one that isn’t naively blaming just one side, but covers the stupid brutality of both Hamas and Netanyahu’s Nincompoops.

It’s unflinchingly bleak, alas.

Quotes Dune (the book), knows a tautology when he hears one (from eugenicist freak RFKjr), & covers the absolutely silly, insulting, racist Pete Hegseth speech given to all our top generals and admirals.

Yes, there’s a trans person involved in the narrative (NOT the murder!)

What *is* involved in the narrative *&* the murder? Gun culture. If Spencer Cox is looking to “point fingers” maybe he should be using more than one finger.

Sorry @onthemedia.bsky.social - Lately my skepticism has become cynicism. Every time a GOP congressperson disagrees with President Twaddlepot, I assume it’s to appear to be a reasonable & decent human being so they can get reelected.
