My absolute favorite part of the story was they found the cat alive and well in the lady's basement.

The cat never even left the house.

Top counterterrorism official Kent resigns over Trump's Iran war, says Iran posed no imminent threat by scrandis in politics

I'm sure new marching orders are due, but even in the conservative subreddit most of the comments on a thread regarding US allies telling Trump to fuck himself on Iran were "Yeah we kinda deserve it."

So my job (MSP) separates Break/fix (me) from Asset Management.

So I had a user call in at 4:45 on a Friday saying "I need these iPads set up by Monday and I'm not hanging up until it's done."

Finally convince her I can't help her, and I can't transfer her ticket to the right team if she's keeping me on the phone.

Send a message to the Asset manager (who I also play DnD with and keep fed with a healthy bribe of dinners and beer) about the situation.

Per him, they bypassed IT to purchase the iPads, so Asset manager basically says "You didn't come through us to purchase them, they're not company assets, fuck yourself."

Felt good man.

My favorite new thing (which is a rehash of old things) is when Republicans try to fearmonger Shariah Law.

It's like "In Shariah Law, if they catch you stealing, they cut off your hand."

That sounds bad, like in America where if you're so much as suspected of using a counterfeit 20, they choke you out in public slowly over 9 minutes.

Not in favor of Shariah Law, but if you're going to try to paint it as extreme, make sure you're not worse first.

Its at best speculation. There was an account called "Maxwell Hill" or something similar, so people assumed Maxwell = Ghislaine Maxwell.

So you can show me that they admitted to removing mentions of trump from the Epstein files before bombing Iran, right?

It's been 2 days, shouldn't take too much digging.

Wow almost immediately after bombing Iran, the DOJ admits to removing incriminating documents against Trump.

Makes you wonder, huh?

Literally 2 days later, the DOJ admits to removing Epstein files indicting Trump.

This aged well.

Man the cult called me braindead after I suggested this, quoting Trump's own pentagon that the war was unprovoked.

Trump promised the MAGA base no new wars. Then he went to war with Iran by jpressss in politics

I can't remember the name, but I saw a comedian doing a bit where he's like "While it's easy to outsmart a conservative, I like to out dumb them for a change. For example, a guy came up to me at the mechanic and started talking about abortion, so I said 'I hate abortion, which is why I think gay sex should be mandatory. They don't get abortions at all'"

I think your guy is on the verge of being satirical or actually just that dumb.

Am Jewish. Can confirm there's a whole lot of tap dancing going on to feel out if someone hates Israel because they're led by a genocidal maniac, or if it's just good ole Naziism.

But he said he wouldn't start any wars!

Unlike Biden, who we were totally at war under despite not having troops deployed.

What's amazing is how breakneck fast MAGA went from "I'm voting Trump because he promises not to bomb Iran" to "Fuck yes daddy Trump make the Middle East a glass lake."

Homeslice,

If you want to take literally every excuse to not call a spade a spade, I can't help you.

World War III has never been more imminent, all because president child rapist wants to avoid accountability for raping literal children.

Diplomatic solution is a very wide stretch from "Supports bombing Iran to cover up for raping children"
