Raison d'État

"All men dream, but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds, wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act on their dreams with open eyes, to make them possible."

Read a paper where they OD-ed rats on MDMA, and treated them some with SSRIs. Treatment group showed neuroprotective effects from SSRIs. Lost the paper though when I forgot my password to my encrypted driv# :p

Dosage and quality control are key, and Prohibition militates against both.
I've had MDMA maybe ten times in my life, never once experienced the crash.
Dodgy suppliers mix dopaminergics in with the MDMA because its cheaper and gives the effect the market expects, but it increases the oxidative stress and free radical damage to the neurons.
Vitamins C and E have been demonstrated to protect neurons even then, at least in Rhesus monkeys :p
Ending the MDMA trip early with an SSRI is supposed to work as well, but the one time I tried that I mis-dosed and took an OD of Xoloft :p

One of the reasons we have microplastics that we don't talk about, is the "biodegradation" additives in plastic, mandated by law and regulations in Western countries since the 1970s.
The additives compromise the polymer's strength when new, reduce its useful lifespan, and force it to become microplastics at end-of-life, rather than depositing whole in sediments or landfill.
1970s Westerners achieved their dream of being able to litter without (visible) consequences, but the price was too high, and no politician wants to walk it back...

The 🇺🇸 Tomahawk double-tap on the girl's school in Minab was not as stupid as it looks.
Many ranking officers at the nearby military base send their daughters to that school. The base is fearsomely fortified, but Iranians have an unusually family-obsessed culture, and it was quite predictable that Iranian fathers would defy orders and break cover to try to save their little girls. The 40-minute delay between "taps" maximised the number of fathers on-site.
In the lingo, "Operational Planners leveraged Cultural Awareness and Human Terrain Mapping to bring High Value Targets (HVTs) with range of friendly kinetic effects".
It's 2026: boys can be girls, girls can be targets, and winners are never charged with warcrimes.
Tucker Carlson - "Mister Traditional Values" - disagrees, of course:
"You can't have a war unless you believe you are — on the deepest level — better than the people you're fighting."
"If you wake up in the morning living in the kind of country that thinks it's okay to kill — not simply military officers — but their daughters…
That country is not worth fighting for."

Yes I agree, but I have suspicions about the sudden end of that specific plane. Yes, the passengers were recorded trying to break into the cockpit of '93, but it was also an hour and a half after the start of the attacks, and fighter jets were in the air despite all the NORAD exercise shenanigans.
And then we get two very different stories about the fighters from NORAD and FAA, and something different again from the fighter pilot.
Exactly what I would expect if a pilot said "fuck it, they're dead either way" and opened fire in defiance of standing orders. I wouldn't judge him for it, but the American people would.
Re "just well executed" - it was, but I also think the NORAD exercise was "snow-ploughing", which is very slightly more than mere LIHOP.
(And then we have WTC-7, whose collapse was announced a full minute before its actual collapse. I was a teenager, but I was watching the news live that night...)
