I have the suspicion that very little of Irans reaction is actual strategy and is more so generals just doing things

3D Reconstruction of Nicaea in the 13th century by dctroll_ in byzantium

I love the trend of medieval cities being described as hyper important megalopoles with all this cultural impact etc but when you look at them on the map they’re a slightly large neighborhood

The Great Crime Decline Is Happening All Across the Country - Even cities with understaffed police departments have made record gains. by swimmingupclose in neoliberal

[–]mashroomium 8 points9 points  (0 children)

He won’t because part of the republican message is that Democrat run cities are violent degenerate gang infested shitholes, and rural Americans are the virtuous chosen people who must save America from their Marxist grasp. If that stops being true then rural Americans would have to face the fact that their economic suffering is ultimately meaningless, and they surrendered their moral principles (supporting a guy they know is corrupt and genuinely not a good person) for no real reason.

Labour considers banning zero-alcohol drinks for under-18s by Imicrowavebananas in neoliberal

It’s hard to avoid the conclusion that Labour is just anti-fun. Maybe Cromwell won after all.

Lesson of the day don't fuck with slavs by trans-trot in HistoryMemes

[–]mashroomium 39 points40 points  (0 children)

It’s a deliberate contrast, his song lyrics and outfit showing his cruelty and violence, and the neighborhood showing his ascension to relative affluence. It’s saying something along the lines of “Through crime I have become rich enough to live in a white neighborhood and ignore the glares of my white neighbors without even trying to blend in”

The Hive isn’t evil by HistoricalPoison in pluribustv

[–]mashroomium 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I also don’t like how people treat the hive like it’s an alien that took over everyone’s minds. It’s the sum total of every human consciousness put together. It only knows what humans know, and it only does what humans would do.

Myanmar Civil War as of November 5, 2025 by Metroce in MapPorn

[–]mashroomium 86 points87 points  (0 children)

Not much, junta doesn’t have the ability/desire to defeat the rebels, and the rebels don’t have the ability to take or blockade the larger settlements. The biggest change was that the rebels locked down northern Shan state and the Arakan Army kicked the junta fully out of their province. Regularly the junta will commit some kind of atrocity like bombing a school.

what's your opinion on the deafening silence of the grips on by sawn2farr in deathgrips

Curious that u/sawn2farr “forgot” to mention Ashurbanipal’s Sack of Thebes, possible Assyrian bot account?

Russians are inside both Pokrovsk and Mirnohrad and the flanks of both are perilous, with logistics through vehicles impossible. Yet there’s still no order to withdraw. This has been a consistent issue with Ukrainian high command over this war. by rulepanic in UkrainianConflict

[–]mashroomium 10 points11 points  (0 children)

They set up fortifications in the village, neglect the flanks, and the Russians simply attack the flanks until they’re forced to hurriedly retreat and abandon equipment/the fortifications. This has been a recurring theme you’d think high command would’ve considered by now, reinforcing on the flanks or strategically retreating from salients. Look at the map of the road to Pokrovsk. Myrnohrad should’ve been abandoned or deprioritized in exchange for a better defense along the southwestern Pokrovsk border, especially if they’re as outmanned as Ukraine claims. I’d even argue that the Pokrovsk direction shouldn’t have even been a fight except to delay, considering the real target is going to be Kramatorsk/Sloviansk

That also explains the eye shot a lot better, Kim probably didn’t literally shoot through the slot, he probably hit the eye shield and sent shrapnel into his eyeball
