President Donald Trump suggested that the United States is preparing to take new action against alleged drug trafficking networks in Venezuela, telling service members during a Thanksgiving call that efforts for strikes on land will be starting "very soon." https://cnn.it/487SPPL

Old Polish joke; two old friends meet for the first time in a while and stop to chat. "How's your year been?" asks the first. The second one shrugs. "Oh, you know" he says, "about average. Worse than last year, better than the next."

If it were Hamas that were constantly bombing and killing hundreds of Israelis, it would not be described as a “test” of the ceasefire. Reporters would be able to call it what it is: a clear-cut violation, whose perpetrators should be held accountable.

The Gaza “Ceasefire” is a Total Fraud
The fire has not, in fact, ceased, and there have to be meaningful penalties for Israel’s violations.

“It always embarrassed Samuel Vimes when civilians tried to speak to him in what they thought was “policeman.” If it came to that, he hated thinking of them as civilians. What was a policeman, if not a civilian with a uniform and a badge? But they tended to use the term these days as a way of describing people who were not policemen. It was a dangerous habit: once policemen stopped being civilians the only other thing they could be was soldiers.” ― Terry Pratchett, Snuff

screenshot of a tumblr post from user “wildmansters” The thing that really boils my potatoes about Al in general is that I have been a creative professional for over a decade now and the devil has ALWAYS been in the details. Big and small, I've had single-person businesses rip me to shreds over how their colors turned out on newsprint, and have worked with huge companies with THICK brand guidelines with every detail of their brand identity laid out and enforced with an iron fist. But I guess all of that stuff doesn't matter anymore? Who gives a fuck if this Al generated baby has six fingers, that mom-and-pop shop is still going to use it. That rug from Temu says Happy Thanksgivirg? Oh well haha it's just a silly funny thing now (nevermind that you never would have given a B-grade item from a craft show the same consideration). I don't actually care that the Al Coca-cola ad has a truck that changes size every scene, but I can't help but think about how, if it had been some poor underpaid artist, they would have been laughed out of the building. I don't really know how to put it in a succint way but it just feels all the more obvious how much more grace and flexibility has always been possible but never offered.

Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu are habitual liars. So why, we might ask, do so many journalists and politicians act as if a ceasefire is in place, even as Israel’s bombing and killing in Gaza rages on?

No one shld lose sight of the fact that the Guard was only in DC as part of an extended political messaging stunt. The shooter is guilty for the attacks/carnage. Donald Trump is responsible for them. This is the collateral damage of Trump abusing his powers as President.

Nick Offerman responds by giving well-justified credit to Makowsky and Millard. Class act. Go watch #DeathByLightning and read the book Destiny Of The Republic. Both are absolutely great.

We are now further away from the theatrical release of Raiders of the Lost Ark (June 12, 1981) than it was from the year it takes place in (1936). We have reached the Indiana Jones event horizon.

remember, folks,
This Thanksgiving remember the cranberry sauce, but forget the Marijuana. Terry was convinced to take a "toke" of a joint with his friend "just to relax". Immediately after, Terry killed his friend who had given him the marijuana in a murderous craze. Not so safe, is it? Marijuana. Not Even Once. Ad Council

Literal Republican doctrine: Trump isn’t even responsible for things he does let alone what his direct reports do but everyone in this demographic we don’t like is responsible for one random person in it.

"a single person of this demographic may have committed a crime, therefore we must punish the entire demographic" is a policy response you may recognize from fascist governments dedicated to ethnic cleansing elsewhere.

The Pathways project is a major part of the new pipeline deal between Carney and Smith, appearing 17 times in the memo's text.

But much like the pipeline itself, First Nations in its path don't want the megaproject.
Carney-Smith deal will bring carbon capture to Cold Lake. They don't want it
Alberta First Nations are being shut out of a sprawling carbon capture and storage project on their traditional territories that is a key part of Thursday's Alberta-Ottawa pipeline deal, chiefs say.

The Afghan refugee accused of shooting two National Guard members in Washington, D.C., fought in the late days of the U.S. war there as part of a "Zero Unit," a paramilitary force that worked with the C.I.A., according to a person briefed on the investigation and an Afghan intelligence officer familiar with the matter. The units were known for their brutality and labeled "death squads" by human rights groups. The suspect, identified by federal officials as Rahmanullah Lakanwal, 29, grew up in a village in the eastern province of Khost. A childhood friend, who asked to be identified only as Muhammad because he feared Taliban reprisals, said that Mr. Lakanwal had suffered from mental health issues and was disturbed by the casualties his unit had caused.
