As deadly riots burn Iranian cities, Western media ignores the shocking wave of violence, turning instead to US government-funded NGOs for data. The one-sided portrayal has helped push Trump to the brink of authorizing renewed US attacks. Western media has ignored a growing trove of video evidence showing terrorist tactics deployed across Iran by protesters described by Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch as “largely peaceful.” Recent videos published both by Iranian state media and anti-government forces reveal public lynchings […]

This is another case of Trump doing the right thing in theory. From Matt Stoller: Trump also issued an executive order to ban buybacks, dividends, and cap executive compensation for defense contractors. The rumor is that DOD deputy secretary Steve Feinberg complained about the unwillingness of the contractors to do competent work. Feinberg is a […]

The Foreskin Tactical Hoodie is the antithesis of all things feminine and female. It comes in black, brown, and olive green. It does not come in fuchsia, lilac, or ecru. It is perfect for outdoorsmen and army-man dress-up parties. It is not for doing stuff women normally do, like yoga, crying, or watching Heated Rivalry.
Yes, it has so many pockets that it is basically a wearable purse. But don’t get the wrong idea; it is only for men. A purse is obviously full of feminine items such as tissues, mascara, and loose change. You are only allowed to carry manly things like TP rolls, guyliner, and cold hard cash in the Foreskin Tactical Hoodie. Manly men don’t carry around change. That stuff is heavy. Manly men toss their change on the ground and walk away confidently while something explodes and heavy metal plays in the background.
Alongside the mounting pile of elaborate theoretical models we see a fast-growing stock of equally intricate statistical tools … [M]ost modeltesting kits described in professional journals are internally consistent. However, like the economic models they are supposed to implement, the validity of these statistical tools depends itself on the acceptance of certain convenient assumptions pertaining […]

For the last year or so, left-leaning UK voters have been subjected to the looming nightmare that Reform – a bunch of xenophobes and welfare-state-slashers – might form the next government. There has been very little silver lining to this. The one bit of schadenfreude to be gleaned is the impending annihilation of the Conservatives […]
On 3 January 2026, beneath the cover of darkness, more than 150 US aircraft and elite Delta Force units struck Caracas, abducting President Nicolás Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores. Having neutralised several key military and communications installations, US bombers then engaged in an act of psychological warfare by targeting the Cuartel de la Montaña, […]

Welcome to Blast Zone 66, Brooklyn’s ultimate adventure gym / future site of a grim 20/20 news segment. We’re the only place in the city where you can pay between $63 and $74 to watch your children come perilously close to spinal injuries and hepatitis A—all to the booming hits of Marshmello.
ATTRACTIONS
Our cavernous, bright purple playspace is truly a kid’s wonderland/ a manifestation of darkest parental nightmares. We feature a wide range of high-flying activities, including:
- unmonitored ziplines
- trampolines crowded with fully grown men clumsily attempting back flips next to toddlers
- forty-foot slides at ridiculously steep angles
Why are the ziplines directly over a concrete floor? Should there be exposed metal pipes in the middle of the trampolines? Are the slides constructed in such a way that the angle and velocity will result in children landing squarely on their necks?
Beats us. We aren’t physicists here, just purveyors of fun.
