[Bitcoin Teddy @Bitcoin_Teddy]

Japanese actor Hiroyuki Sanada spoke about the contradictions of human nature:

“Some people dream of having a swimming pool at home, while those who have one hardly ever use it. Those who have lost a loved one feel a profound sense of loss, while others often complain about their living relatives. Those without a partner long for one, while those who have one often don't appreciate it. The hungry would give anything for a meal, while the satiated complain about the taste of their food. Those without a car dream of owning one, while those who have a car are always looking for a better one.”

The key to happiness is gratitude: truly seeing and appreciating what we already have, and understanding that somewhere, someone would give anything for what we take for granted.

@andrewpeter13 @drewlevin @Lourlo Then why should Yuumi even be allowed to play as a jungler? Why not lock out all the AD Lethality items for Yuumi and any other champion that “shouldn’t” build it? Why punish players just for trying something different that is allowed when it could easily be prevented?

[Kharn Sagara @343forerunner]

@drewlevin @Lourlo Why don’t you let players pick whatever champion they want in whichever role without the threat of banning them? Why is there even an automated system checking this at all?

I genuinely don’t know whether to laugh or lose my mind anymore at this European hypocritical double standards.

When it comes to Vladimir Putin, suddenly it’s Churchillian resolve. No compromise. No dialogue. Arm Ukraine to the teeth, sanction everything that moves, wreck your own energy security if necessary - because tyranny must be confronted.

Fine. I actually respect the consistency of that … in isolation.

But then you turn around and lecture us - us - the Gulf monarchies, Jordan and Israel, about showing restraint with Tehran? About dialogue? About coexistence?

Are you serious?

For forty years - forty bloody years - this regime has been waging a shadow war across the region. Militias, proxies, sleeper cells, terror networks, destabilizing entire countries - Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Yemen - and threatening the Gulf monarchies, Jordan, and Israel nonstop.

This isn’t theoretical. This isn’t abstract. This is lived reality.

And yet here come Emmanuel Macron, Keir Starmer, and the rest of the European choir, gently advising us to calm down, de-escalate, and - what was it again? - “give diplomacy a chance.”

Diplomacy with who, exactly? With a system that has built its entire regional strategy on plausible deniability and proxy terror violence?

You were willing to absorb inflation, energy shocks, and political backlash at home to confront Moscow. You made that choice. You said: this is the price of standing up to a tyrant.

So don’t come here and tell us - after decades of being on the receiving end - that we should just sit down, smile politely, and “coexist.”

Either you believe in confronting tyranny everywhere .. or you don’t.

Macron, Starmer, rest of EU leaders and top bureaucrats should just STFU and spare us the self righteous sanctimonious lectures!🤐🤫

President Trump made one of the most significant moves of the past year when he announced that the U.S. would blockade the Strait of Hormuz.

The UAE WILL and CAN bypass the Strait of Hormuz to sell its oil. The Islamic regime in Iran cannot and will not be allowed to continue its terrorism. It will be stopped by force. A powerful global alliance, led by the United States, is about to emerge strong, decisive, and unafraid to protect world trade, food, and medical supply chains from the regime’s terrorism and piracy. Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and Turkey should avoid any efforts that may prevent ending this Islamic regime threat. Standing in the way of action only prolongs instability.

[The married man @marriedmn]

Divorce rates are high in this generation for one simple reason. People don't understand what marriage actually is. Social media made everyone believe there's always someone better out there, a richer man, a prettier woman, a more exciting life, but comparison kills loyalty.

People want weddings, not marriages. They'll spend months planning a ceremony and zero time learning how to communicate when things get hard. Nobody knows how to argue anymore.
They yell, they shut down, they run instead of learning how to fight for each other. Money pressure exposes weak foundations. Instead of building together, couples turn on each other, men stop leading, women stop respecting their men, temptation is everywhere. Now everyone uses therapy words to escape accountability. Everything is toxic, everything is trauma. Nothing is ever their fault.

There's no community pressure to stay married anymore. No elders saying work it out. Just friends saying leave. You deserve better. Kids became optional, sacrifice became outdated and vows became suggestions.

Marriage used to mean I'll suffer with you. Now it means I'll stay as long as I'm happy. And that's why divorce is high. Because people don't know how to suffer together.
They only know how to quit when excitement is no longer there.

We are in the trenches!!

[American Debunk @AmericanDebunk]

This Trump post is elite. And you’ll start to see it too as you read along. You will love this breakdown.

We all know about the impending deadline on Tuesday. The deadline creates urgency for Iran and gives Trump an extra negotiation chip that didn’t exist before. We all know this.

But it gets better now.

Trump is now branding the deadline.

“Power Plant Day and Bridge Day, all wrapped up in one, in Iran.”

This branding is elite framing, as it turns an abstract military pressure into vivid, memorable visual events. People don’t remember vague threats.

They remember branded days—like “D-Day” or “Shock and Awe.” Trump makes the destruction feel scheduled, inevitable, and almost celebratory.

It sticks in the mind and signals total control.

And notice how nonchalant it sounds. Trump didn’t go for epic, carnage-heavy branding. He branded it the way you’d casually announce National Potato Chip Day.

That’s intentional. He’s making an apocalyptic-like event for Iran feel routine, even mundane, for the US. This makes the threat land harder because it flexes confidence and might. This is light work for America.

Then Trump uses a direct threat. Zero diplomatic filter. It bypasses the usual State Department word salad and hits the human survival instinct.

And the closer? “Praise be to Allah.” Oh. My. Goodness.

He doesn’t just threaten their infrastructure- he mocks their worldview by hijacking their own religious phrasing right before promising devastation.

This is too perfect.

It’s a reminder who’s writing the script for their “impending” doom.

This is calibrated dominance.

Watch how the media spins it tomorrow. They’ll call it “unpresidential.” The people who get persuasion will see genius.

What a time to be alive.

[Mike @Doranimated]

For those in the American media—and in Iran—who struggle to read the president, here’s a translation into your language of his latest statement:

“Dear IRGC leaders: The United States military just extracted a single American, alive, from inside your territory. Not one American life was lost in the process. Take that as a demonstration. We can concentrate overwhelming firepower anywhere in your country. We can go where we want and do what we want, and there is very little you can do to stop us.

Your one remaining card is your ability to strike civilian infrastructure in the Gulf—countries that once tried to restrain me. That card no longer works. Your terror attacks have turned them from hesitant partners into supporters of your defeat. And I refuse to be deterred by this terror tactic.

If we can pull a pilot off a mountaintop, we can send forces to seize uranium and destroy your underground missile complexes. I am prepared to do all that if I have no choice. But to do it without losing American lives, I must first take down dual-use infrastructure—bridges, power plants, energy grids. That will set your country back decades.

So let’s be clear. Cut a deal on uranium, missiles, and proxies. Stop attacking Gulf states and Israel. Open the Strait to international shipping. If you don’t, we will act with overwhelming force to protect our interests.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

—DJT”

My assessment:

1- IRGC made a bet. And the bet was that they would keep the pressure on the Strait of Hormuz, and set the market on fire, as it would be the easiest way to make Trump think twice, withdraw, TACO, or have Gulf countries turn against Trump. But it didn’t work. It won’t work militarily or just in general. UAE is joining the war in a more proactive manner, Bahrain, Kuwait, Saudi are also more eager now than ever. Qataris have completely switched against the IRGC.
But also, Trump himself said "I don’t care about the strait" obviously meaning that others should join the fight, but he denied to IRGC its strategic value. Which absolutely sucks for them given how they are pissing off their own partners, China mainly. The goal of every single military operation is to either enhance posture or change the calculus of your enemy in a way that favors you, blocking the strait isn’t achieving that for them.
2- IRGC thought that Trump given that he kept on saying that "it’s going fast" that dragging and delaying discussions or surrender to Trump’s demands, they would buy time. But they don’t understand that it’s a war, you can’t buy time when you’re being hit at the core of your command and control and your units aren’t being replenished. I’m not sure if they are delusional or if they are in a state of denial and my understanding is that it’s the latter because they constantly underestimate US resolve just like they underestimated Israel last year.
3- Trump, if you haven’t noticed, is ready to escalate, it’s a problem for IRGC because they are so used to being the ones who set the tempo of escalations, (see Iran-Israel April 2025) U.S. options have widened so much compared to just a weak ago.

In other words, doesn’t look good for them. They made too many enemies and too fast.
