RFC2324 posted:I don't see how it's possible at this point, unless age catches up to one of the pair of geezers we have as options now. I like that TLP is pissing off Trump mightily, but I’ve had to warn some of my liberal friends that by no means are they progressive. Being Republicans, TLP doesn’t mind that the boot is on someone’s neck, they just find Trump’s choice of boots to be distasteful.

https://twitter.com/SVNewsAlerts/status/1290674216623366144?s=19 May have been fireworks. The  argument could be that Israel hit a warehouse in the port because it had a weapon shipment for Hizballah inside - since 2013, they’ve hit a bunch of targets (warehouses and convoys near Damascus and Homs) in Syria for transferring weapons to Hizballah, and in recent days there has been some activity between Hizballah and IDF near Southern Lebanon. I really, really hope this was a horrifying industrial accident or else it’s going to be a loving hellish few weeks in the Middle East.

This Beirut explosion has been kind of tough for me to watch in real time. My wife and I spent a loving unimaginably glorious time vacationing in Beirut when we were broke-rear end English teachers in Egypt a decade ago, and stayed at a hostel right by the port. Two of the biggest night life and funnest neighborhoods- Gemmayzeh and Ashrafiyeh- are located right there, and have apparently suffered heavy damage. I have to wonder if the small hostel where we stayed is even there anymore. A good friend and trusted colleague is Lebanese and she spent her day calling her aunt, who verified that the hospital that she works in is very damaged and overrun with patients, but she and the other nuns survived. On a professional level, another security officer at another U.N. agency different than mine that I went through a training course with years ago was briefly stuck under rubble but managed to dig himself out to render aid to others who were injured. Photos of his destroyed office make it clear that if it weren’t for the shatter-resistant film on the exterior windows, he’d probably be dead. Everyone from my organization is OK, but our security guy went from making sure our people were good to going back and volunteering with the Red Cross to provide medical treatment to other casualties. Lebanon is a beautiful, beautiful country, the Lebanese are a friendly and resilient people and Beirut is a gem of a city. My exposure to this trauma is minimal beyond calling to check in on a sobbing woman who was concerned about her (thankfully OK) family and obviously I’m personally fine, but I gotta say this is hard to watch unfold in real time. Gonna go hug my doggy now.

Yeahhhhhhh I have every confidence in my own ability to safely operate a motorcycle, but zero confidence in the drivers around me to not kill me. A bunch of friends got super into motorcycles and then quit simultaneously after one of their friends was first on the scene to a motorcycle vs truck accident. Spoilers for  There were two people on the bike, a man and a woman. The woman had multiple compound fractures but nothing life threatening beyond the agony she was in, but the guy... his jaw fell off when my friend tried to do CPR on him.

I am 100% pro-vaccine and will get a COVID vaccine when a safe one is mass distributed and accessible to all. That said, I think I’d wait a month or two if Trump’s October Surprise is to roll out a rushed-through vaccine. I’d hate to find that it’s only 10% effective or produces severe side effects, like a desire to vote for Trump or something.

Everyone check your 2020 bingo sheets and check if you had “Israel and UAE announce surprise diplomatic agreement and thank Trump for his role in brokering it  ”https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1293922803419353088 None of this is really surprising, the Gulf monarchies have been not-so-secretly making deals with Israel on a lot of things over the past 10 years.

Hadn’t seen this mentioned here before but a former SEAL decided to get all kitted up and throw a pipe bomb at the protests in Portland. His OPSEC was so good that a dude managed to get video of him wandering away holding his hi-cut helmet, equipped with NODS. https://taskandpurpose.com/news/portland-police-seek-former-navy-seal-investigation Normal country; things will surely quiet down before the election.

As an undecided moderate who lives in a swing state and posts TL;DR in response to anything over 500 words, I must say that while I find Trump to be an icky person, I do like that his agenda is simple, direct, easy to read and doesn’t challenge me to engage with an issue that I don’t understand very well.

Apparently Oakland had a Shroom Church that got raided so enjoy that instead: I think I mentioned this in Dadchat, but Michael Pollan’s book “How to Change Your Mind” is a well-researched and presented book about the history of psychedelics, particularly psilocybin. In recent years, more of the mainstream medical and psychology community has come around to their use in therapy, particularly for addiction and also people facing life-threatening illnesses. I’d highly recommend it.

If the prosecutors approach you and ask how you’d feel about him pleading down to a lesser charge, I’d say dig in and request he be prosecuted on that charge.

Patriot Prayer is the same group that set up a sniping position in downtown Portland a few years ago during some anti-fascist protests. Their members are serious and this is something that won’t go unanswered. The trend has been there for a long time, but I feel like in the past few weeks, the country has taken the on ramp to a highway that leads to a place we don’t want to go, and I don’t see any way that we’re going to collectively make the decision to exit. The violent right is going to poo poo itself if Biden gets elected and probably stage more “defensive” rallies; if Trump wins then they’ll probably start hunting leftists because they think they’ll have impunity.
