I love a happy ending

The nose markings kind of lose impact when you put 50 different emojis on the front of the plane

What the hell is wrong with American elections?? The way I see Americans talk about the New York Mayoral election makes it seem like it’s happening next week. But that shit isn’t untill November?? Wait until October to start your campaign dawg

It is interesting to see how much more vulnerable top military leaders are in modern conflicts. In past conflicts it seems generals and top command were often kept far away from battlefields to protect them, but that does not work anymore. I wonder how militaries will respond to this, keeping generals confined in bunkers, or spreading out command between more people to prevent a single death being devastating.

Xiaomi phones are really cheap and work well as a basic smart phone, unless you’re buying it for the camera. If you’re in the US you may need to get it drop shipped and I’m not sure how the tariffs would affect it

Sekiro is my favorite game that Fromsoft has made. The gameplay is hard but I actually find it easier than the hardest parts of Dark Souls/ Elden Ring because so much is about learning patterns. Outside of one or two bosses they are easier to see and you can track their arm movements so you can tell which attacks are coming. Compared to Elden Ring where bosses are causing so much on screen visual noise that I can’t tell what’s going on.

The environments in Sekiro are also beautiful. Its less gloomy than Dark Souls so many of the areas are very vibrant. I love spending time in many of the more fantastical areas of the game.

The key evangelical for O9A … is Joshua Caleb Sutter … a paid FBI informant since 2004.

I can be ur angle or yuor devil

The theme song for this show has been stuck in my head for over 20 years

Yeah that ‘big balls’ guy is linked to the Com which 764 is part of

one of the big figures in the ONA group is also a paid FBI informant since 2004

Teen kills parents in attempt to gain funds to assassinate Trump. The teen was linked to the Order of Nine Angels, a neo-nazi/pedophile group originating in the UK. (Huge CW for looking up this group or any related groups for violence, pedophilia, animal cruelty, suicide)

Anyone have any thoughts on ONA or related groups like 764 and terrorgram? They feel very parapolitical to me in a strategy of tension kind of way. They’ve been linked to multiple terror attacks across Europe and the Americas, oftentimes carried out by people as young as 14. Right wing accelerationism seems to be on an upswing since COVID.

Are we going to get an East and West Syria? One an Israeli proxy, the other a Turkish proxy.

Lmao at tree spiking being considered an act of terrorism

I would post the emoji of the blob on fire, but it’ll just end up saying “visit hexbear.net”

Additionally, provinces have announced retaliatory measures:

Nova Scotia will cancel procurement contracts with US based companies, double road tolls for American travellers, and ban sales of American alcohol in provincial stores

British Columbia has announced they will ban sales of alcohol produced in states that voted for Republicans

Canada announces retaliatory tariffs against the USA. Initial tariffs will be 25% of $30 billion as of Tuesday, followed by 25% of $125 billion in three weeks

Part of me thinks these tariffs from the US will remain until the next election and the Cons are elected. Trump will then drop the tariffs and the Cons can take it as a victory and claim they saved Canada

Ric Grenell is returning to the US with six US nationals who were in prison in Venezuela.

Are the mercs who pissed themselves during a coup attempt being freed?

Peter Ciriwami, governor of North Kivu province in the Democratic Republic of the Congo has been killed as M23 encircles the provincial capital of Goma

The Kivu conflict has been ongoing for more than 20 years at this point. M23 previously held Goma in 2012 before a ceasefire. It seems like no state is truly in control of the eastern DRC as M23 is backed by Rwanda, while the UN has claimed the DRC is arming non-state militias inside Kivu province to fight back. In a similar fashion to the Myanmar Civil War there are so many active groups here it feels impossible to keep track of alliances and controlled territory.

I don’t even know what the media will call it this time to say it’s not a Nazi salute
