I prefer to believe this battle with the spectre of death just takes a bit more time before we are given the news that Death, in fact, has died. No one, after messes with Chuck Norris. https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/celebrity/articles/chuck-norris-martial-arts-master-141700258.html
Chuck Norris, martial arts master and actor whose toughness became internet lore, dies at 86

Interesting that this wasn’t fully ai generated. Either way, this still means we’re now in the world predicted by The Running Man.

Mojtaba was not the most likely candidate just a few months ago. It's probably that the violent murder of his father significantly increased his chances. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/mar/04/mojtaba-khamenei-son-of-former-supreme-leader-tipped-to-become-irans-next-head-of-state

Trump: “The heavy and pinpoint bombing, however, will continue, uninterrupted throughout the week or, as long as necessary to achieve our objective of PEACE THROUGHOUT THE MIDDLE EAST AND, INDEED, THE WORLD!” is the modern equivalent of “The Floggings Will Continue Until Morale Improves”.
Perhaps Anthropic survives this round, but understand this means that, soon, unassisted drones will be killing perceived threats from the pacific to west Asia, and perhaps beyond. https://apnews.com/article/anthropic-hegseth-ai-pentagon-military-3d86c9296fe953ec0591fcde6a613aba
Hegseth and Anthropic CEO meet over military AI use

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is pressuring Anthropic to give the military broader access to its AI, or lose its Pentagon contract. Hegseth gave Anthropic a Friday deadline to open its AI technology for unrestricted military use or risk losing its government contract.

Hegseth met Tuesday with Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei, whose company makes the chatbot Claude and remains the last of its peers to not supply its technology to a new U.S. military internal network.

I’m reminded of the Jimmy Saville cover up, which also included the Royal family. A pity the story regurgitates the lie of Epstein as a Russian asset. Israel is still off limits, it seems. https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026/feb/24/andrew-mountbatten-windsor-biographer-andrew-lownie-entitled

Very cool. And a recipe for disaster. What if Peter Thiel, or some badly programmed AI gets hold of these, and starts to build paperclips? https://www.seas.upenn.edu/stories/penn-and-umich-create-worlds-smallest-programmable-autonomous-robots/
