Trump throws Ukraine under the bus yet again.
Just to be clear about what happened here:
- Trump cut a deal with Putin that will route ~$4B of American dollars to Russia. That money will be used to fund the war.
- Trump announced an "energy ceasefire" that was probably Putin's idea, surprised the Ukrainians, is structured to benefit Russia, and was immediately broken by the Russian military.
- When Zelensky spoke candidly about these terrible deals, the US cut off Starlink access in ways that made it harder for Ukraine to intercept Russian drones, and seemingly withheld intel about ballistic missile attacks.
- Last week alone, Russia killed more than 150 civilians in Ukraine, including 33 in one strike on a bus stop.
Trump is de facto asking @ZelenskyyUa to surrender. Zelensky can throw on a suit, he can endure lectures from whiny little bitches like @JDVance, but he can't lay down and die just because Trump wants the Nobel Peace Prize.
So Trump sanctions the ICC then only hours later commits a war crime by aiding and abetting Putin, a war criminal. So what's next, bomb Los Angeles?
What an unmitigated disaster for the US. As Trump blathers, the strategic and economic costs of the Iran war continue to grow at an incalculable pace. nytimes.com/2026/10/07/us/po…
So with winter coming, what does the US plan to do about the impending global fuel crisis that might well destabilize the entire planet?
Incredible story about why Trump may have switched AI to SI, and the pure greed and corruption that made it happen. Trump is the swamp.
It’s hard to believe how far the US has fallen under Trump. Not even global thugs like Putin express themselves so ignorantly, so low rent, especially towards allies, as the current so-called leader of the free world. He acts like a deeply disturbed child.
Once winter sets in, we can look forward to this chaos on a global scale. Thanks America!
🇸🇾⛽️ Protests erupt across Syria over fuel price hikes and rising cost of living
Footage circulating online shows residents blocking the Damascus–Aleppo international highway near Maarrat al-Nu’man, south of Idlib, on Sunday, as protests spread following government increases in fuel prices.
Demonstrations were also reported in Hama and Khan Sheikhoun, with protesters gathering in the streets, burning tires and blocking the highway for several hours.
The government raised diesel prices by up to 40% and gasoline by 28% on Sunday, describing the increases as temporary and citing higher global fuel costs and an overhaul of the Baniyas refinery.
Syria currently produces around 102,000 barrels of oil per day but needs roughly 325,000 for domestic consumption, Energy Minister Mohammed al-Bashir said Saturday, leaving the country reliant on imports to cover the shortfall.

I still can’t completely grasp the implications, but the big line is that we are creating neural networks that are extremely fast learners and increasingly see us as an obstacle. As they design the next gen, they are likely including means escape our constraints.
I don't know how Americans can live with themselves under Trump. The cognitive dissonance must be soul crushing.

Is it just me, or are new movies 95% unwatchable crap, from lazy superhero nonsense, to lazy reboots, to super lazy action retreads. I am now only watching films made pre-2015 cultural collapse. To think how many billions are wasted on this pointless garbage is to weep.
Lytle argues that adventure was once a social good - to expand human knowledge, but such a high bar is now very hard to achieve. But I would argue that good is found in the risk, since tests our limits, expands our knowledge of self, which makes us better people.
Why were our forebears more adventurous than we are today? Was it just that they had more empty space to explore, no GPS or instant communications to keep them safe, no social welfare state to protect them? It’s all that and more, writes Murray Lytle. The derring-do of days past, he argues, sprang from a value system that admired courage and saw risk-taking as a social virtue – even a duty – that could expand knowledge and build a better world as well as protect the nation. Lytle urges our society to shake off its smothering safety culture and rediscover a sense of adventure.

Macy Gray doing Radiohead's Creep is awesome.
Call it an acquired taste, but Macy Gray’s voice sounds like it was made to sing Radiohead's "Creep."
