The Iranian navy, which has been destroyed eight times, has apparently closed the Strait of Hormuz again, because the United States, for the seventh time, won the war that wasn’t a war, so now the United States has to open the Strait of Hormuz that was already open before the not-war began. The not-war began because Iran had uranium that was totally, completely, beautifully obliterated, so they can’t build the nuclear bomb they weren’t building, which is why the United States had to start the not-war it definitely didn’t start. Now the United States, which has nuclear weapons, is threatening to use nuclear weapons to stop Iran from getting nuclear weapons, because nuclear weapons are far too dangerous for countries with nuclear weapons to allow other countries to have. If the United States saw the United States doing what the United States does in other countries, the United States would invade the United States to liberate the United States from the tyranny of the United States.

@DanDePetris Although Condi is an unreliable narrator, she’s accidentally correct. A Middle East in which Israel’s aggressive behavior is constrained by Iran and other Gulf States might yield better outcomes in time.

@nguyenhdi I’m generally immune to the question because I’m interested in neurobiology, and the antecedent conditions simply aren’t there to support the hypothesis that AI is conscious.

“ at the halfway point of the journey, making up real life, we were surrounded by a gloomy melancholy, one expressed by so very many derisive and sorrowful words in the café of the lost youth.” 2/2

Synchronicity! I’m reading Comedia in the morning and In the Cafe of lost Youth by P. Modiano in the evening and discovered this epigram in the latter, attributed to Guy Debord:”… 1/2

@CarloDallapicc1 @Rob_Motto And Elway had to navigate the Niners. Elway’s a beast. Rodgers is somewhere in his shadow.

@policytensor No deal of any substance is coming soon. Even if it does happen per impossible, Israel will scupper it.

@ThomasEWoods Longevity science is a confounded mess. But 3-4 things appear to be absolutely central: —Get great sleep —Avoid steep insulin spikes —Stay physically active —Have close friends, especially important for men who generally suck at sociality

@najam_ali There’s very little that Xi can do for Washington in a war of choice conducted by Trump and Netanyahu. If Trump needs help, he doesn’t need to look any further than addressing his own delusions. No matter what happens, Xi will school Trump. He’s a very serious leader.
