I take solace in the fact that the sun is going to obliterate us all eventually. It gives me kind of an odd sense of peace.

Speak for yourself. I'm built different, the sun is welcome to try. disgost

As a kid I thought we would all get taken out when the sun goes red giant, but the other day I learned that life on earth will die out long before that. Once the mid ocean ridges are above water, water will no longer get subducted into the mantle, putting an end to plate tectonics which depends on water for lubrication, and the atmosphere will be wiped out by solar wind.

I kinda feel like old age will get me first (if I can survive the water wars).

Let’s game this out. Iran’s best response is to tire out israel by wave launching drones until every missile is fired, then just let drones land where they may in cities. They are already mass producing them… russia can just wait a while for their next 20 shipments.

Israel can’t tolerate this, because your girl only stays if you’re an asshole who picks fights they can win. BB goes down, unless he can get the US to spot him a few billion in missiles and airframe hours. Either way the US can’t afford this game either, although china should be staring at taiwan and encouraging us to bet harder.

Ukraine doesn’t get patriots (they go to israel) russia doesn’t get shaheds (they go to israel), so both sides kind of lose here. Europe can’t be ready for russia’s crazy and give israel their weapons after supplying ukraine.

China should really sucker punch the philippines and take an island right now. The US is strung out and can’t respond. That’s the next crazy thing.

Iranian media reports dismiss attack came from abroad While we still wait for official comments, Tasnim news agency has quoted “informed sources” as saying that “there are no reports of an attack from abroad against Isfahan or any other part of Iran”. Separately, an Iranian analyst argued on state television that mini-drones were flown by “infiltrators from inside” the country.

🤷‍♂️

That's strange. Best to wait and see in that case.

Love how the most psychotic countries on earth are just allowed to have nukes for some fucking reason.

[-] Tunnelvision@hexbear.net 6 points 2 years ago

They have nukes because they’re strategically located in the Middle East. Just like how if Ukraine won against Russia they would have received nukes from the west too.

Oh this really is gonna develop into an all-out proxy war between Iran and the US isn't it?

[-] peeonyou@hexbear.net 30 points 2 years ago

This time it will go beyond proxy imo

[-] Sleve_McDichael@hexbear.net 23 points 2 years ago

holden-bloodfeast neocons right now

[-] axont@hexbear.net 7 points 2 years ago

Iran and the US have been having a proxy war since at least 1985

[-] anonochronomus@hexbear.net 3 points 2 years ago

1980 if you count the Iran-Iraq war.

[-] kristina@hexbear.net 30 points 2 years ago
