Monday morning #headlines recap

Multi-front war is back: Beirut → Israel → Iran → Yemen, inside 18 hours. The ceasefire didn't just stay empty - it shattered. Israel hit Beirut's Dahiyeh, Iran fired its first missiles at Israel since the April 8 truce, Israel struck back inside Iran, and then Yemen entered the war, declaring a Red Sea naval blockade and putting missiles on Tel Aviv. Good thing Trump is calling the shots.

Israel closed all Gaza crossings and halted humanitarian aid to roughly 2 million Palestinians after Iran's strikes - collective punishment for an Iran-Israel exchange Gaza had no part in. The evil nature of the jew is unparalleled in the modern world.

North Korea nuclear threat: if the US hits Iran with nukes, North Korea will fire nuclear ballistic missiles at Tel Aviv and Washington. Notably, Xi arrived in Pyongyang for a state visit the same day. Kim Jong Un has entered the chat…

Crude jumped +3-4% as Israel struck Iran "ignoring Trump pleas”. Weak men make expensive gas.

Russia is grinding into fortified Konstantinovka, the southeast now effectively fallen - a "double cauldron," with Shevchenko liberated and advances in nearly every sector except Kherson. Meanwhile Zelenskyyyyyy landed in the UK to meet Macron, Merz, Starmer - reportedly to an empty airport. The war has now passed WWI in length.

Ukraine launched a drone boat designed to level half a Romanian city by hitting an oil depot next to an ammonium nitrate depot, to try to drag NATO into the war, but the boat got hung up on pollution buoys – but not before the Starlink antenna on it was photographed. Cue the Benny Hill theme…

Korea's KOSPI cratered ~8.8% with circuit breakers tripping twice, dragging Friday's US positioning purge across the Pacific while oil gapped up and silver knifed through its 200-day line.

Blackstone gates private credit: the $1.3T manager restricted withdrawals from its flagship private credit fund - not the only fund to do so in recent days.

SpaceX IPO Friday (June 12): Hyperliquid's pre-IPO perp has slid ~25% from peak toward the $135 IPO price; one Danish pension banned its investors from the shares over governance and money-burn.

Philippines 7.8 quake (~12 dead, 200+ injured, buildings down in General Santos).

President Trump cuts off and walks out of a Kristen Welker interview while she questions him about voter fraud. Here’s an idea: instead of acting like a little drama queen, maybe consider hanging a few of the voter fraud perpetrators.

Trump just signed an executive order that will functionally wall off the Canadian export economy from the United States. Until a leftist judge decides otherwise…

Dan Crenshaw shits on Massie for saying the USS Liberty attack was purposeful, and acts like everyone knows it was an accident. Dan is tired of Huckabee and others getting all the attention for publicly fellating the jews.

Iran inscription on missiles bound for Israel: “In the name of Jesus Christ — to all the people of the world: We are fighting a criminal gang. The corrupt people of Epstein Island. We will not compromise. To rid the world of corruption and usury.” Hilarious if true, but somehow I doubt it.

Dorm room of the only white woman in the entire University of Toronto engineering department is surrounded by streetshitters and they try to force their way in. As much as I hate nasty pajeets, I feel even more anger toward the cucked father that allowed his daughter to be in this position.

There are roughly 11,000 physicians in the US on H1B visas. That means 9,900 of them used fraudulent documents for their H1B approval. I think the number is higher than that, but regardless never let an Indian doctor touch you or a family member.

Albanians filmed going door to door and dragging Israeli settlers out of their country. This is the way.

Twitter post: “Many of them are giving up. Visa crowd is openly saying it’s better to just stay in India… plus they’re adding in the ‘hatred towards Indians’ as a motivating factor.” Good news for today: bullying works and jeets are getting scared.

Remember to focus on what's important today frens...

@Twig

@techriot I forgot how much you actually do love AI. I imagine that parts of the tech can be fun too.

@Twig

@techriot No I think AI is more relevant than sports. Sports is borderline irrelevance. We should work out more and watch sports less.

@Twig

@techriot AI is just a lot of hype and gaslight. Just like bitcoin and other intangibles. Some people need and love to be distracted.

@Twig

@techriot I have a block for now, plus it's planting season around here so I'm doing lots of yard work during the days too. Around here we're having 14 hours plus, of daylight so that's keeping me really busy too. Also, I have, or had some sysadmin chores to complete. I usually do those during the night. Surprisingly, out of all my sysadmin concers, I now have one outstanding and I'm going to see if I can fix that one tonight. All in all, I feel blessed, since I made lots of progress, where I thought that I would fail. So that's a good thing. Enough about me, how are you doing?

@Twig

@techriot you're right @Twig, I have been very light in the posting department these days. I really have nothing to post about these days.

@Twig

@techriot No, not really. Everybody is kinda tight on the purse strings these days. I suspect that this will be the reality for several years.

@Twig

@techriot I'm not a professional writer but yeah, that's me too. Writing like coding and tricking out devices are just some of my hobbies. I'm working in the Linux console right now and this client allows me to chat on the fediverse without a GUI.

@PNS Another dindu. I hope that kid has a kind recovery and never let his guard down, ever again.

@PNS Indeed, "Roxanne" and "Watching You" are two favorites.

@freepatriot Or, we can have zero immigrants and zero minimum wage. I prefer that reality.

Nice @Twig, this is the first D-Day reference I've seen in two days.

@PNS They're always moving the goal posts, when they can't control the narrative to gaslight the rest of us.

@PNS poor thing, she needs a purpose and plenty of sunlight exposure.

@MSP_SMIMSA Not only in this context either. I often work in the Linux console using fbterm and gpm for the mouse. So I don't even have to hit C-c anymore, I just have to highlight text with the mouse. Anyway I often forget this and hit C-c and end up killing whatever app I was working in. I hate when that happens too.
