Get it? It's a jump to conclusions mat

When the Secretary of War made these comments, about one in five people killed by Operation Epic Fury were elementary-age schoolgirls in the middle of a normal school day.

Anyway I don't expect to change anyone's mind. I just want to be on record somewhere saying that killing this woman — and then claiming to be the real victim, with the militarized might of the federal government behind you — is one of the most cowardly things I've ever seen.

🇮🇶 Iraqi prisoner of war comforting his 4-year-old son in Najaf, Iraq, March 31, 2003. The photo won the Pulitzer Prize.....

The photograph captures an Iraqi prisoner of war sitting on the ground, his head covered by a black hood, gently placing his hand over his child’s eyes. The boy, barefoot and frightened, sits against his father’s lap amid coils of barbed wire. Taken in Najaf during the early days of the Iraq War, it distills the human cost of conflict more powerfully than any statistic could.

In March 2003, U.S. forces advanced into Iraq under the premise of dismantling weapons of mass destruction. Towns like Najaf became battle zones as both sides endured heavy casualties. For civilians, these confrontations meant chaos, separation, and loss. In this image, the father’s protective gesture, shielding his son from seeing his captivity, transcends politics and ideology. It is a moment of love and helplessness in a place defined by violence.

The hood was a standard procedure for captured combatants, used to disorient and dehumanize. Yet the presence of the child breaks through that anonymity, reminding the viewer that behind every war prisoner lies a family.

The photo was taken by Jean-Marc Bouju for the Associated Press and went on to win the Pulitzer Prize for Feature Photography in 2004 for its raw depiction of human emotion during war.

Well yes. Our game studio utilizes AI. AI is an essential part of our creative process. (Sly smile spreading as the crowd grumbles)

@bykevinclark 49ers: forgot to fumigate the training room in the offseason

@bykevinclark “The preseason game winner Jake Moody has given him the confidence he needs to get over the yips” - me, an idiot, but also Kyle Shanahan?

@robertmays Couldn’t be me when my favorite team has star talent the likes of Jake Tonges

Bang Bang

[Jeff Howe @jeffphowe]

49ers TE Jake Tonges, who has been in the league since 2022, had never caught a pass until the Niners' last drive, when he caught 3 balls for 15 yards. Two of those catches were third-down conversions, one of which was a TD that put the 49ers in the lead.

My twins and I are in a tent in the middle of the war, running to each other for comfort in each other's arms. 💔
Your support is our only hope to survive and stay strong.
Every bit of help from you could change our fate amidst this pain.

ASIAN MARKETS IN TURMOIL:

[Maia @maiamindel]

No guys Trump isn't blowing up the economy with tariffs for *no* reason he's blowing it up so in the long run the US has lower wages, higher interest rates, and moves down the value chain so it can produce cheap plastic trinkets instead of software and pharmaceuticals

Special Election in 2026? Plenty of time for Rubio to run for his old seat after he’s inevitably fired in 8 months.

[Nathaniel Rakich @baseballot]

If this happens, Ron DeSantis would appoint a replacement senator for Rubio, and then there would be a special election in 2026. #FLsen

@jaycaspiankang Personally I’d take inflation over “half my friends are getting laid off” but don’t expect any politicians to make that trade for a generation. It’s grim!

[John McIsaac @johnpmcisaac]

@jaycaspiankang People look at wage gains and think “I earned that” and they look at inflation and think “president did that.” Better sales job could’ve maybe changed that? But I’m pretty sure a way more depressing lesson will be learned.
