I still think Twitter remains the best source of breaking news, but I don't think I've ever been that great a fit for the medium (as seen in my follower account😂), so I'm moving most of my posts to Substack. 1/2 substack.com/@plaintivenumb…

Feel like we moved really quickly beyond the fact that a terrorist tried to murder the Pennsylvania governor and his family by burning down his house with everyone inside. Seems like that should've been a longer-surviving story.

Current MLB pitching is probably too good, but I think Judge still can challenge Bonds’ record…. Park fx, a weaker AL, and of course his own amazing talent.
Tuhayta is on the first 'green belt' above al-Khokhah. The Houthi defensive lines in the Tihama are anchored on these four or five green belts that run laterally from the coast to the central highlands. Pushing up to Hodeida means fighting through these defensive belts.

Over the past 24 hours, approx 43 airstrikes hit Houthi-linked positions in #Yemen. x26 strikes in Sana'a incl. sites for 1st time like Fardhat Nihm. x7 strikes in Al-Tihayta, Hudeidah. x5 strikes in Al-Hazm, Al-Jawf. x2 strikes in Majz, Saadah. x3 strikes in Maifat Abs, Dhamar.
Tommy Edman has landed his first Dodgers brand deal with the national car shopping site Edmunds! Edman’s name has been misspelled for years, and Edmunds knows the feeling. The Dodgers versatile research toward any big purchase, especially cars. CONGRATS TOMMY! 🙏

Do you think they’ll figure it out?

Would work better with US and/or Gulf enablers/advisors on the ground, but it's doable I think. The Houthis can take a lot of damage, but the toll from airstrikes is piling up.
Coordinated localized probes at multiple points along the FLOT and a slow, careful, deliberate effort to walk the anti-Houthi forces back up to Hodeida behind a US ISR soak & wall of airstrikes?
I think scale is what matters. Major coordinated offensives - no. Demonstrations, mobilizationand probes in a variety of areas - why not? All with lethal and hungry US strike effort overhead looking for snacks.
I just don't understand how anybody can look at the shambolic state of the Yemeni government right now and think "yeah, these guys can totally pull this off" It all depends on KSA and UAE decide, and if these reports are true then we're seeing a massive shift in their positions
Amazing the old Leo1s are being used so much…
#Breaking: Germany has announced a major new arms delivery to Ukraine, set to begin this year. The shipment is funded by the €3 billion package approved by the German parliament on March 21.

Ah yes. Definitely on brand. 🤣

I sell on Amazon. You'd be surprised how little the prices are going up. Chinese sellers raised prices for an item by 15%, about $10 extra retail. I just ran 107% on my China items - it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. $10-20/item.
Of course Foucault partly misreads disciplinary institutions because he misunderstands early modern military practice and the actual workings of the barracks…

"My teachers ... told me that every serious author goes through successively three stages with regard to each manuscript: self-admiration; self-loathing; fatalistic indifference. Once, they said, one had reached the third stage the manuscript was ready to publish."—Raymond Geuss
I want a timeline where Stephen A Smith running for Prez actually ends up leading to Sir Charles as POTUS.
