grim posthumous scenario i had not previously considered: you post a picture of the missile headed straight for you, and are memorialized by a bunch of random assholes complaining about alt text
![A Bluesky user based in Venezuela posted 'I live near a military air base and five earth-shaking explosions were just heart.'
User @thenordic.bsky.social (a random asshole) replied 'was it too hard for you to to [sic] add a link?' along with a link to an AP piece. Quick, don't look, what do you think the odds are that this user responded gracefully to being told that OP was on the ground and reporting firsthand?](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ycbmujtxprrwbkiw3x5qsyz4/bafkreieh2ddespqvcqdhpfy4g2higsw4lfiguzpaxs3rdessztcokmww6i@jpeg)

"Gentle reminder for the umpteenth time that Maduro is a 'brutal dictator', so after the US has installed Venezuelan Ahmed Chalabi and the country has descended into a fractured hellscape of militias and gangsterism as US oil companies extract the good stuff, know my heart was in the right place."
"I'm no fan of Maduro but..." why do people in the US feel a need to preface things this way in 20-fucking-26

Just state a number of how many tens of thousands of Venezuelan civilians deserve to die in order to remove this 'brutal dictator' and be done with it. Stop pussyfooting around. Several years of crippling sanctions and attempted coups weren't able to rouse the will of the people so pick your number.

The US has launched an unprovoked and illegal attack on Venezuela.
This is a brazen attempt to secure control over Venezuelan natural resources.
It is an act of war that puts the lives of millions of people at risk, and should be condemned by anyone who believes in sovereignty & international law.

if you are talking today about how bad maduro was and were alive, at all, during the run-up to the iraq war you are potentially the dumbest person to ever live

Huge day for sensibles to declare that actually international law does not apply if they think a guy has bad vibes on here for some reason.

Similarly a big day to declare that the Prime Minister of the UK can't say anything about international law, unlike everyone else, because he is mummy's special boy.

I'm confused: Was this about arresting and prosecuting a corrupt despotic dictator responsible for murderous drug trafficking and narco-terrorism, or was it about the United States seizing control of a foreign nation's strategic resources? Not to worry, I'm sure the press will find out.
Pete Hegseth, "Finally a Commander and Chief the world respects and Americans deserve"
"President Trump is deadly serious about getting back the oil that was stolen from us"
"This is America first"
"This is peace through strength"

The PSUV: The only governing party in the world so illegitimate and opposed by the people that multiple US-backed coups and propped-up presidents were incapable of destabilising them or even rallying oppositional energy, not even the Thatcherite dud the liberal intelligentsia finally settled on.

I hope everyone at the Nobel Prize commitee and every other dunce around the world wakes up to the bill of goods they've been sold and enjoys the fucking ride they've put us on now the US is turning and going, "Oh what? The heroic Peace Prize lady in charge? Are you kidding? Nobody likes her."

Cooking up a take where you have a continuum that goes from real estate to murderous dictatorship and how Trump and MBS are the same story in opposite directions

Like Frodo venturing into Mordor I snuck into the badlands of Derbyshire this morning - 8 Tundra Bean Geese showing well at Willington GPs. A smart male Marsh Harrier & Water Rail were year ticks; also Green White Egret.
