There are no “Animals in the wild” that are effectively obligatory upright walkers. Our gluteus Maximus is shaped differently than every other animal on the planet.
They’re no different. Both enable and are often indistinguishable from evil. “Animals in the wild” defecate where they will, it’s one of the reasons you don’t drink untreated waters from streams. Do we really wonder why food borne diseases seem to be increasing? The dolt just expressed a miasma theory of infectious disease, but he’s not aware enough to understand that apparently.
And his oligarch buddies are using their media control to work overtime pushing out his propaganda meant to counter it. Everything from happy-horseshitting about a rise in revenue that still represented losses to touting their alleged plans to have moon stations manned by humanoid robots. I’ve felt that the corrective messaging over the past couple days has been somewhat obvious.
LOL…CNN doesn’t want him (“we’re quite capable of being incompetent as we are, thank you”), but it seems to me “I’m going to force myself on you anyway” is quite on brand for Ellison and the rest of the oligarchs who support the KKKristofascists…
One of the bike trails I ride on is the “Homeless corridor” between Everett and Seattle. Once you cross the county line in Snohomish Co. (the northern side) There is exactly 1 public restroom in the 20 miles of trail. This is because the homeless tend to vandalize the facilities, and that is an actual risk and cost. However, homeless people still need defecate and urinate. The current solution insures it’s done in a more unsanitary way from a public health perspective.
John is also, all of a sudden, wearing suits again. He did in this interview, in the interview with Fox News Digital, and in the interview with Jon Stewart.
After wearing shorts (with his briefs exposed) during his meeting with Netanyahu a few days back, I guess he now has decided that he wants to be taken seriously.
CF is probably now working on making Iran give the lion’s share of the fees to himself as a thank you for ending the don’t call it a war, call it a skirmish.
As of early August 2026, the oil cargo in a fully loaded Very Large Crude Carrier (VLCC) supertanker is valued at approximately $150 million to $160 million USD.
So that pending agreement to “open the Strait” works out to roughly $11 million for Iran at 7% fee and $4.8 million at 3% fee for Oman, for every large crude carrier that passes through the Strait of Hormuz on the way outbound.
A liquified natural gas tanker ranges up to around $100 million in cargo value. Traffic through the Strait before the war was around 120 to 140 commercial vessels every day, and presumably Iran and Oman would charge fees for value of inbound container cargo headed to the Gulf states as well as outbound oil, gas, fertilizer, etc. Sweet deal for Iran!
JOhn THune must have pulled him aside and said something like, “If you want to be one of us, you have to wear a suit to be admitted to our dining room.”
