The man who did not care about the war in Ukraine because this was Europe's war, now wants Europe to join the war he started with Iran, while he is lifting sanctions on Russia, so Putin can scale up the Ukraine war.

Trump is not playing chess. He is just eating the pieces.

"Never forget that a political, economical or religious crisis is enough to cast doubt on women's rights. These rights will never be vested. You have to stay vigilant your whole life."

Simone de Beauvoir, 1949

Spain has barred the use of its military bases for strikes on Iranian targets, prompting the immediate departure of U.S.

Every month the United States provides even more reason to boycott its products and companies — the strikes on Iran being just the latest.

In light of that, it’s a great time to ditch the products and services of US tech companies. I made a comprehensive guide to help you that I’ve been regularly updating for months.

In the video, the guy really knows how to prank, like dry up ink markers (teachers hate this) and kick a big rock to the street for bike riders to find, ouch!

That shitty job making guy, does a great job, especially with the basic webpage mutated into an explosion of graphic crap. The top executives are so happy in the #enshitifcation
