Biden bombing Syria again. That was predictable. For the Dems/libs, equal representation means picking officials with a bunch of different skin colors as long they are all war-mongering neoliberals.

being half-Syrian in the US is fun because good-hearted liberals always ask me in hushed tones what I think of the evil dictator Assad and I can tell them with a straight face that without him still in power, my Christian family would probably be dead or displaced

The world having complexity and nuance? Pshaw, what are you trying to do, confuse people? FREEDOM BOMBS FOR EVERYONE!

Also, some funny stuff I found today:

I think some people really, really enjoy sitting at home and scolding people about their wish to resume normal life and have some semblance of formerly taken-for-granted human connection.

Why, I don’t know. Bullies gonna bully.

The Coronavirus Is Plotting a Comeback. Here’s Our Chance to Stop It for Good. Many scientists are expecting another rise in infections. But this time the surge will be blunted by vaccines and, hopefully, widespread caution. By summer, Americans may be looking at a return to normal life.

I expect a slight rise, too; no third wave, no surge, though. How large a rise depends on vax rate and behavior going into spring.

After a year of being pummeled by grim statistics and scolded for wanting human contact, many Americans feel a long-promised deliverance is at hand.

Glad I am not the only one who got very fucking tired of when someone mentioned they missed being with people or hugs, some lib emerged from the bushes wearing five masks screeching about killing Gramma. Damn that got old.
