The answer is ultros. The answer is always ultros, until such a time that it actually is ultros.

Alternatively, attack of the zombie fish, come to avenge their brethren what got fed to cid.

So I think I've identified the funny meme show of the new season: Magical Girl Ore.

The name is self-explanatory.
... if and only if you have some understanding of a particular quirk of a language that isn't english. While I do have that understanding and guessed correctly, I was also deeply disappointed on checking that it wasn't magical mineralogical moe mayhem. This show has brought not bauxite-tan into the world and is lesser for it :-\

It bothers me that this Stormy Daniels shit is gonna one day wind up in a history book. In a hundred years or so this is gonna be taught to children in American History class, and they're going to have to take a test on it.
Oh, probably less than a century. Iirc clinton's blowjob is already in history books, though I got no clue if they're making students identify the specific sex act on tests. Give it more fifteen, twenty years on the outside. That'll be around the point you'll be teaching stuff to kids currently too young (or just straight unborn) to remember it.

It's a bit under the nominal gdp of iceland. More or less a nation of its own in terms of economic weight, albeit a small-ish one money wise.

Homs Airport was struck by missiles, at least 14 dead. Assad outraged. According to Trump, it wasn't the US.

Heh. IS got a navy and cruise missiles now?

Ohwait, Russia accuses Israel.
For what it's worth, the place hit was apparently bombed by israel a couple months back... article linked by starv mentions it. If it's not the US, israel is pretty much the next most likely, this time. Even odds it has sod all to do with the gas attack, too, outside of being convenient timing.

Seem to recall our border patrol folks getting in on that sort of thing, too. Might have just been less specific sorts of violence and whatnot, or simple murder or what have you. Been a bit since I last looked up stuff like that.

Well... you can? Chop off a hand and then never use a touch screen device again. You don't have to use one as is.

Sweet fornication the TV babbling heads were citing harvard studies claiming a link between using less eye-stabbing color themes on social media and being depressed, and saying that wanting less eye strain is a reason to pay extra attention to your child's mental health. Their flailing insistence in calling it "filters" make me think they might be talking about stuff like f.lux, too.

Someone make it end before it starts, high intensity/bright color schemes are the headache devil ;_;

The statewide bans in several states are a more important factor there.
More importantly again, adjacent ones. Iirc some of the stricter continental states still have plenty of trouble due significantly to neighboring states that aren't as guns-go gung-ho.

I wish I could be confident enough to say that surely someone on either side knows there is no way to win a trade war with a critical trading partner, and move to stop shooting themselves in the foot repeatedly.

I know little of the current leadership in China beyond the rather alarming admiration Trump had for the dude over there declaring himself president for life... and we've yet to hit bottom on stupid shit cheetobitch will engage in.
Whatever their various problems may be, by and large the upper parts of the chinese administration isn't stupid. Unfortunately, shit like this you can't afford to not retaliate, unless you happen to like being what amounts to a client state to another nation. China'd probably love to knock this shit off, lots of people in the US would love to knock this shit off, but unfortunately conservative malfeasance got us a fuckwit as a president so welp.

You ever been there? I mean, I've been to Brownsville, I've seen what some would say is Mexico, but as I've never experienced it directly I suppose I have to doubt it...
I've been to mexico, yes. Somewhere, I'm pretty sure I still have a wallet that was bought there.

Not all, but they're pretty rare, apparently. Iirc the last number I noticed was that out of the last 150 or so incidents (going by the common definition of 4+ shot (at?)), all of four (4) have been female. So it happens, just... not often. At all.

Unrelated, but AP is apparently reporting that china is now swearing to respond to any tariffs with same strength trade measures.

Ladies and gents, welcome to an economic tantrum spiral. Sadly, the excess cats will solve no food shortages.

Seeing mention that the shooter is dead, for what it's worth. There's been at least one fairly confirmed fatality, regardless.
