Losing the war on Iran is a learning opportunity for America.
In its radicalized fantasy world, the Trump regime is beyond help. But for the American people — especially the part that has been deceived and betrayed into believing lies — now has a unique opportunity to realize the truth.
Because of Ukrainian sanctions, fuel restrictions have been introduced in Moscow, St. Petersburg, and Kazan: russians are now limited to purchasing only 20 liters of fuel per fill-up.

New piece. Losing the war with Iran is the best thing possible for the US. It highlights the corruption and incompetence at the top of the US system and might lead to soul-searching that will make things better in the long run. The US needs to learn humility. open.substack.com/pub/phillips...
I want to highlight for psychiatric clinicians some lines from Trump’s failed emergency motion to the DC Circuit seeking to keep his name on the Kennedy Center.
“The name ‘Kennedy’ is still on the Building, but in a much stronger form,” Trump writes. (That is, below his.)

"Fast as gas" charging.
Pull your EV up to the "pump." Plug in. Go into the "gas" station to buy a sparkling water and pack of gum. Come out, unplug, and drive off at 85% charge.
Fast as gas.
Important update on story of the dumbass Swedish contract killer who got lost in Limerick using Satnav & ended up dying in a car crash on his way to assassination. Either he or his buddy, the driver (who is on the lam), is ALSO wanted for a contract killing in Finland, where they drive on the right.

A long time ago, in an Internet far away, the US government defined commercial encryption as a munition and banned its export.
In 1996, Clinton signed an executive order moving commercial encryption off the munitions list.
If he hadn't done this, it is doubtful the Internet would be teh same today
Hydrological extremes reach now such magnitudes that they add massive amounts of water only to be removed at a record pace by massive heatwaves
Its a pumping effect on the tectonic plates
Could have a significant effect supporting earth quakes and volcano eruptions
Wait for confirmation

Insane self-blinding of the US. They are throwing away their investment in the ocean observation system and the benefits it provides.

Welcome to my TED Talk on distrust as a transferable weapon.
I do not mean distrust as a mood.
I do not mean normal democratic skepticism.
I mean distrust as a political tool that can be packaged in one country, exported to another, and reused when an election gets tense.

Researchers report that tectonic stress on the major San Andreas and San Jacinto fault systems has climbed to its highest levels in a millennium, and in some sections has already surpassed them.
Democracy is the way. Truth and justice matter.
Russia can end the war today by leaving Ukraine.
Less proud to be an American than I used to be. I really thought we were better than this.
