Today, it’s England v Argentina.

The last time England faced Argentina, Margaret Thatcher sent a task force to liberate the Falklands, and the lads sent them packing. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

@doctorgfitness @ElPako_777 @Megatron_ron I’m not sure that reflects a 'general' sentiment, Gordon. Based on my direct work with various American teams, their feelings are much more nuanced. Generalizing for 340 million people is lazy thinking, brother.

A woman paid for Amazon Prime for 5 years before she realized she was using it wrong.

She'd ordered hundreds of packages. Watched a few shows on Prime Video. Never once looked past the "Buy Now" button.

Her cousin — who worked Amazon customer service for 3 years — was staying over for the holidays and watched her order a phone charger at full price.

She finally said: "Wait — can I see your account for a second? You're missing 9 things that come with the Prime you're already paying for. Amazon doesn't advertise most of these. They'd rather you not use them."

She changed 9 things in 10 minutes.

She saved $340 that month. Got a package a day early. Found $1,200 worth of stuff she already owned buried in a benefit she'd never opened.

Here's everything her cousin showed her:

🚨 IRAN JUST BODYBAGGED TRUMP AND DROPPED THE DISS TRACK OF THE YEAR 🔥😂

“Donny Liar” is the savage Lego rap we didn’t know we needed — Epstein island vibes, Netanyahu strings, rally meltdowns, gas station disasters, and pure chaos, all built brick by brick with bars that actually slap.

This Iranian-style Lego masterpiece is unhinged comedy gold.
Military Lego AI absolutely cooked with this one!! 😂🎤🔥

Too on point not to share, “Aussie reply to Trump rant about NATO not being there for us.

Mate. You run a country with 600,000 homeless people sleeping on the street tonight. A country where 40% of adults can't cover a $400 emergency without borrowing money. A country where insulin costs more than a car payment and people are rationing it to survive. A country where medical debt is the number 1 cause of bankruptcy. A country where women are dying in hospital car parks because doctors are too scared of abortion laws to treat a miscarriage.
You lock up more of your own citizens than any nation on earth. More than China. More than Russia. More than North Korea. The land of the free has 2 million people in cages, and a quarter of them haven't even been convicted of anything. They're just too poor to make bail.
Your life expectancy is going backwards. You're the only developed nation where that's happening. Your infant mortality rate is worse than Cuba's. Your kids do active shooter drills between maths and English while you sell the gunmaker's stock to your mates.
Your minimum wage hasn't moved in 15 years. You've got teachers working 2 jobs and veterans sleeping under bridges and you just spent a trillion dollars flattening a country that didn't attack you.
And you’ve got a convicted felon, adjudicating raping, paedophile protecting, porn star shagging insurrectionist running the biggest dumpster fire war campaign since the Taliban thanked you very much for losing again.
And you're calling Greenland poorly run?
Greenland has universal healthcare. Free education. One of the lowest incarceration rates in the world. Nobody goes bankrupt there because they got sick. Nobody dies in a waiting room because their insurance said no.
"NATO wasn't there when we needed them." When exactly was that, champ? September 11? Because NATO invoked Article 5 for the first and only time in history FOR YOU. Soldiers from dozens of countries deployed, fought, bled, and died in Afghanistan FOR YOU. Australia wasn't even in NATO and we still showed up. For 20 years.
And you pulled out at 2am without telling anyone and left them to deal with the mess.
So maybe before you start calling other countries poorly run, have a look at your own backyard, you spray-tanned aluminium siding salesman. The only thing poorly run in this picture is your fucking mouth. Credit (borrowed from) Jim Scroggins - original author 📷 unknown”

For all the MAGA-tards claiming the USA can export enough oil to make up for the closure of the Strait of Hormuz:

The United States is, without question, the world's largest oil producer -- 13.6 million barrels per day as of 2025, a record high driven largely by efficiency gains in the Permian Basin. Impressive. But the Strait of Hormuz carries 20 million barrels per day through a waterway just 21 miles wide at its narrowest point.

That is not a rounding error. That's a 6.4-million-barrel-per-day gap before we have even accounted for the fact that America itself consumes 20.4 million barrels per day.

Read that again. The U.S. produces less oil than it consumes.

Its exportable petroleum surplus sits at roughly 2 to 3 million barrels per day. (Nowhere near 20 million bpd.)

Replacing Hormuz flows would require the U.S. to somehow stop using its own oil entirely, then increase production by nearly 50% overnight.

That is not a plan. That is a fantasy dressed up as foreign policy confidence.

And before someone brings up "just drill more" -- the EIA is already projecting U.S. production to decline through 2027. The Permian Basin -- America's crown jewel of oil production at 6.6 million barrels per day -- has breakeven costs of $61 to $62 per barrel. Margins are thin. Rig counts are already falling. New wells take one to three years to come online at meaningful scale, and that assumes the infrastructure to export them even exists, which it largely does not.

The U.S. simply does not have the deepwater export terminal capacity to ship 20 million barrels per day to the rest of the world. Building that infrastructure would take years and hundreds of billions of dollars.

Then there is the reserve question. The U.S. holds approximately 83.7 billion barrels of proven oil reserves (not yet extracted) -- enough for roughly 11 years at current domestic consumption levels. If you start aggressively exporting to replace Hormuz volumes on top of that, you are not looking at a long-term solution. You are looking at accelerated depletion of proven reserves.

The countries that would suffer most from a Hormuz closure are not the ones people typically think about in this debate. Europe, Japan, South Korea, India, and China are the primary recipients of Persian Gulf oil. A long-term Hormuz closure would send oil prices to levels not seen in modern history -- some analysts suggest several hundred dollars per barrel in a prolonged scenario -- triggering recessions, supply chain collapses, and humanitarian crises across multiple continents simultaneously.

The numbers here are not ambiguous. U.S. production: 13.6 million barrels per day. Hormuz flow: 20 million barrels per day. U.S. net exportable surplus: roughly 2.8 million barrels per day.

The math ain't mathin'.

No combination of optimism, political will, or American exceptionalism closes that gap in any timeframe that matters during an active crisis.

Geopolitics is complicated. Energy arithmetic is not. Please stop spreading misinformation that leads people -- and policymakers -- to catastrophically underestimate what a Hormuz closure would actually mean for the global economy.

[Very Brexit Problems @VeryBrexitProbs]

MAGA thinks Europe can't defend itself without America. Here's what they don't know.

1. France and Britain have 515 nuclear warheads and 8 nuclear missile submarines.

2. European defence spending hit €481 billion this year. That's more than Russia and China spend combined. The EU's ReArm Europe plan is mobilising another €800 billion.

3. European countries have over 1.7 million active troops. Russia has 1.3 million.

4. EU and UK air forces fly over 1,400 combat aircraft. Their navies have five aircraft carriers, over 60 submarines, more than 120 frigates and destroyers.

5. Europe has over 6,000 artillery pieces and that's before the biggest rearmament wave since the Cold War. Poland alone is adding 212 new howitzers.

6. The British SAS invented modern special forces. The US copied them to build Delta Force. From France's Foreign Legion to Poland's GROM, Europe's elite units are among the deadliest on earth.

7. Europe already has joint military commands ready to fight. The UK leads a 10-nation rapid reaction force across Northern Europe and the Arctic. Finland alone can mobilise 900,000 trained reservists all prepared to fight in arctic conditions.

8. Europe has its own satellite navigation (Galileo), its own defence programme (75 active projects) and is building its own rapid deployment force.

The "helpless Europe" story was never about defence.
It was about keeping Europe dependent and buying American weapons, relying on American intelligence, following American foreign policy.

Thanks to Trump, that now ends.

Israel has hit Iranian energy infrastructure for the first time; the strike hit a processing facility tied to the South Pars gas field, which could lead to major electricity shortages in Iran within days.
