  • Maybe, but I think they may have a really hard time trusting anything he says or anything the US puts on paper.

    Let’s say he somehow gets a deal that is similar to the JCPOA, who is to say in 3 or 4 years a new president wont pull out of the deal and restart attacks on them. Hell Trump might do it again in 4 months because fuck you thats why. Iran is in both a good and bad place it feels like. The Strait is their only leverage right now, and we keep hearing about warnings on gas coming soon. Maybe they play that and if gas finally does spike they would have Trump over a barrell even more.

    Like if I were Iran I wouldnt sign a fucking thing without strong promises from a lot of other places that say of the US strikes them again or pulls out of the deal without sufficient reasoning then they would suffer some penalty trade wise or something.



  • I thought Iranian officials, big, strong, beautiful men came to Trump last week with tears in their eyes saying “Sir, despite all the fake news telling us we were winning you have completely demolished us. Your big strong military the likes of which has never been seen and your amazing leadership has caused us to lose all hope. We humbly submit to you and want to become the 52nd state right after Venezuala but before Cuba. Thank you for showing us how wrong we were sir.”

    Am i wrong about that?








  • This feels kinda bold to me. Like yea Republicans might go for his replacement but Trump burned at least 2 senators who are there until next year and more than a few others who are retiring. Some in the GOP seem to suddenly find their spines when no longer in power so weird chance this backfires.

    Also it feels like it would 100% fire up the opposition if they force through another justice like this. But Dems never cease to amaze me in their ability to fail when everything is stacked in their favour.







  • Finished Cult Following: The Extreme Sects That Capture Our Imaginations—and Take Over Our Lives by JW Ocker. Was interesting but at the felt a bit shallow? Maybe i was expecting more of a deep dive on how cults form/beliefs. Not sure was short so maybe that was it. As an aside fuck the guy that ran the ant hill kids cult. That was probably the worst thing I have heard.

    This week i started The Enemy Within by Christie Golden its a D&D book set in Ravenloft. Its next one the series I have. Its ok so far.

    Also started audiobook of Queens of the Conquest by Allison Weir. Found myself wanting to do more historical/academic books lately at least for audiobooks. Not far into it but it is informative so far.
