Ukraine offers to trade its drone interceptors (which work better against Iran's small drones) to Gulf States in exchange for their Patriot missiles (which work better against Russian aircraft and larger missiles)
The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) is quietly pressing California to tighten voter registration verification for military and overseas voters β part of what it calls a βnationwide β¦ enforcement program.β
If you are confused about why Iran is attacking all of their neighbors, the reason is very simple:
their neighbors are mostly being armed by the US anyways. So regardless of whether they attack a US carrier directly, or attack an air base in Kuwait or Bahrain, either way they are depleting the armaments of their attackers. They can also grind the economies of these US-friendly nations to a halt as everyone takes shelter, further harming the US and their ability to wage war. The goal is a war of attrition: make the US use up 10 missiles and drones for every one missile or drone the Iranians use. Make their neighbors question the logic of cooperating with the US.
This strategy is very obvious, and very effective. There is no doubt in my mind that every single military advisor to Trump told him that this would be Iranβs defense strategy. But try telling Trump or Hegseth that they arenβt the smartest one in the room, you already know what Trump would say: βYOUβRE FIRED!β
There is still always the nuclear option (literally). Although if you watched the interview with Colonel Douglas MacGregor I posted earlier, nuclear strikes might be enough to convince China and Russia to begin open hostilities against the US in the Middle East.
All people of conscience must oppose this war, and demand the war criminals Trump and Netanyahu face justice under international law.

NEW: Police Make Mass Arrest at Whipple, Ending Week of Action Against ICE in MN
Dozens of people were violently arrested by state police and Hennepin County sheriff's deputies after a march against ICE to the Whipple Federal Building on Sunday, March 1, during the last planned protest of the 'Bring the Heat Melt The Ice!' week of action in Minnesota.

A Sunday morning march to the Whipple Federal Building ended with state police and sheriffβs deputies making mass arrests once again, continuing a trend among state and local law enforcement to crackdown on protests against ICE in Minnesota.

Whoops, one of the more complicated formulas on my mileage sheet, not that its particularly complicate, somehow got messed up resulting in me making 1049$/hr at Amazon yesterday. Yeah, it was a good day, but not that good.
Interesting, but I'm more looking for a log book rather than a tracker as I collect a lot of info (mileage, time, packages and stops), and need a way to get it into a spreadsheet, everything on Play does that by using Google Sheets and I'm trying to avoid Google whenever possible. But, thanks.

Yay⦠Well, sorta yay, finally got 2 new M2 cars to add to my collection, its been months since WalMart had anything I wanted, in fact their stock has been real low for a long time. Unfortunately I seem to have lost my database of my collection, so that's annoying, going to have to re-do that. That said, here's the collection ![media-1] Admittedly kinda hard to see as its just so many of them, 32 if'n I'm mathing right. From top to bottom, the first shelf and the left cars on the second shelf are all VW's, mostly vans or van-pickups. A pair of oddballs fill out that shelf, a 50's American cargo wagon and a 70's Bronco in patriotic paint. Below that are the American cab overs, whether Dodge A series or Ford econolines, so far 16 of those taking up just over two shleves. Finally at the end are the rest of the miscellany, a pair of 50's Ford conventional trucks, and the newest addition⦠![media-2] A 1970 C900 pickup. 100 was ½ ton, 200 ¾ ton, 300 1 ton, so⦠? Not sure what the weight class were on these, but they were heavy duty trucks typically box trucks, flatbeds or other service vehicles, a pickup is very interesting to see, and I always love the styling on these.
@Zhi Zhu πΈοΈ Honestly it doesn't surprise me with how expensive medical school is, its easy to imagine that some doctors would justify it as a small price for all the good they'll do. It does make me wonder if'n the price is a bug or a feature.

This is absurd. If another country hit our top civilian and military leaders and wiped them out, then bombed 1,000 targets and threatened five more weeks of bombings, we'd say it was war. Get real or get out of here with this.
@kirbygoulet it actually wasn't because only congress can rename it and they didn't do that. So you can keep calling it the Department of Defense just like you can keep calling it the Gulf of Mexico.
#SCOTUS cleared the way Monday for #California #schools to out children identify as #transgender to their parents without getting the studentβs approval, granting an emergency appeal from a conservative legal group.
The order blocks for now a state law that bans automatic parental notification requirements if students change their pronouns or gender expression at school.
So like ... In this kid ban on the internet shit, what the fuck are they SUPPOSED to use instead? Or is this just our generation's "go play outside" ... In all those spaces for kids to play outside that have been turned into streets and parking lots?
Ughhh, I'm sooooo sleepy. As people my age do, I woke up at 0300 to go to the bathroom, and decided to check a couple of my gig apps. Amazon was throwing money around, so I stayed up and went to work despite this being my Satyrday, and the last three of my week having been rough, I mean I can catch a nap when I get home, right? My body says nope, while complaining all the time that we're tired.
Huh, interesting, DeviantArt did something interesting, I stopped following an artist, and all their posts vanished off my artists you're following page (or whatever they call it). This might not sound like anything special, but every gallery site I've been on, unfollowing an artist only results in their future art not showing up on your page, because the page is semi-static, old content stays forever, so I guess the creation of the page is real time?
You know, these kind of articles are usually little more than a thinly disguised ad, but after looking at the Ikea page, I think I need a few of these.
While its displayed in the article and main Ikea page as a simple arc, it appears that its an arc from base to base, so you can arrange in various shapes dependent on where you put the bases, and even wall mount it. Oh, and it can change colours. Ok, not sure why I need it, but I need it.

Neat as it is, and I haven't read the article yet, but I doubt it'll be any kind of success here. Sure, I think it'll be great in major cities, and would be a great UTV or golf cart replacement in suburbs and exurbs, but the price and the cost of insurance will make it too expensive for those unless something changes.
