For once, Putin is right. The #IranWar has been an asinine catastrophe and a gift to Russia.
Well done, Donny. You've fucked us and Europe both.
#CIA DIRECTOR’S MOSCOW TRIP FOLLOWED #RUSSIAN ASSESSMENT OF U.S. WEAKNESS: CIA Director John Ratcliffe made an unannounced visit to Moscow earlier this week, after U.S. intelligence reported that #Moscow believes that the U.S. has been weakened by the war with Iran – leaving #Europe and America vulnerable to Russian escalation, the WaPo reports.washingtonpost.com/national-se…
Six months of war. Thousands killed. Air and seas poisoned. Families everywhere squeezed by rising bills.
The price of #war is paid by people and the planet, not those who profit from it.
Six months into the US-Israeli war on Iran, people are paying the price in lives, environmental damage and higher bills. The crisis shows how dependence on fossil fuels leaves people exposed to volatile prices and future shocks.Camilo Sanchez (Greenpeace International)

On the 27th February 2026, the Strait of Hormuz was open, Ali Khamenei was 86, and it was possible that his death through natural causes in the then not too distant future would have opened the door to a less repressive regime in Iran.
I know all the geopolitical stuff about the Iran war matters, but we should never forget that Trump's war has killed the innocent and wrecked the lives of so many.

An Iranian strike also hit a Chinese-owned building in Kuwait, killing a worker. Jordan intercepted 5 Iranian missiles — no casualties there.
The US carried out a fresh two-hour strike wave on Iranian military command sites & drone factories

I love being a loser. I have an EV and charge with solar. Rising oil prices because of the #IranWar haven't really impacted my budget much. Yes, everything else is rising, but fuel is not something I worry about.
When the US starts having shortages like Russia is currently facing, I won't have to wait days in my car, and then fight to the death for fuel.
Be a loser like me
On Monday morning, the Pentagon said in a news release that 19-year-old Army Pvt. Isabella Gonzales of Carrollton, TX, was killed in action on Friday, during an Iranian strike on Muwaffaq Salti Air Base in Jordan.
This is a young woman who could have been in my classroom. I feel pained by her death, just as I am sure the deaths of young Iranians grieve those who teach in Iran.
Amidst all the talk of geopolitics, let us not forget the human cost of this unnecessary, illegal, and utterly evil war.

Say what you will about #Trump, at least he was able to walk away from an utterly stupid, pointless, self-defeating war with his tail between his legs after getting bested by a supposedly far weaker opponent he was trying to invade for no good reason other than ego before it completely destroyed the domestic economy.
Putin is still in #Ukraine after four years.
RUBIO APOLOGY TOUR...
Trump's US Secretary of State Marco Rubio met UAE President Mohamed bin Zayed Wednesday as he kicked off a tour of the Gulf countries hit hardest by Iran during Trump's debacle of a war against Iran.
DID YOU KNOW.....
Trump's war debacle cost Americans more than $100 BILLION DOLLARS
AND...
Iran destroyed 250+ US military base facilities in the Middle East using drones and missiles.

Never forget Trump's cynical betrayal of the Iranian protesters.
Are Iran hawks setting up Vance to take the blame for Iran not being defeated?
The needless suffering of the people of Iran.

Okay, if this is real, this is worse than I was expecting. I've been thinking about secondary outputs but I've been thinking way more about plastics, inks, other secondaries.
I have been worried about products shortages but maybe not enough. I am and have been assuming that there will be preferential distribution to corporations (which obviously includes most freight) and least preference given to individuals trying to do their own work themselves - e.g., like RAM over the last several months. But I haven't thought about the price side of that.
And holy shit it's gonna get fugly.
So, uh, yeah.
Maybe buy an ebike. Maybe make some plans.
some newsworthy things:
- demand destructing is here
- inventories, strategic reserves are at an all time low
- no relief in sight
quiet frankly you all should stop worrying about what is reported on #trump and the #iranwar and brace for #economic consequences.
Holy fucking shit, I just looked at airline flight prices for the first time in months.

Vor allem, weil Dünger teurer wird, wird auch Essen nochmal teurer werden.
Das stört Menschen in den reichen Staaten, die ausweichen werden müssen.
Das erschüttert Gesellschaften in den Staaten der globalen Mehrheiten, in denen die Nahrungsversorgung nicht resilient ist.
Und das tötet Menschen in den dysfunktionalen Staaten der globalen Mehrheit und stößt ihre Gemeinschaften in Chaos und Verzweiflung.

kpler, which is a company which tracks shipping data, says iranian control of #hormuz would reduce the traffic by ~50% from it's previous flow due to the bureaucracy involved, basically.
yeah, spot on and very remarkable. could be that the markets now price #trump's initiatives as a risk.
