1) 100%, not even vaguely but fully 2) it's great! Hadn't been for a long time but they have so much now. So nice to see stuff you will buy, how novel!

You can't kill people because (you say) they are selling drugs. Targeted extrajudcial killings of nearly a dozen people in the middle of the ocean. Utterly appalling on every level. In a real country, and in our recent past, this would lead the news for days if not weeks.

Lethal force against a civilian vessel in international waters is a war crime if not in self-defense. If not in self-defense, only non-lethal actions, such as warning shots or disabling fire, are allowed. "Not yielding to pursuers" or "suspected of carrying drugs" doesn't carry a death sentence.

Here's the video Trump just posted to Truth Social, with the claim that 11 people aboard the boat were killed. There is zero evidence of self-defense here. Looks like a massacre of civilians at sea. Even if they had drugs aboard, that's not a capital offense.

Think it's a good means to tell readers who likely heard about him being a Me Too accused that this is related to that prior indicent they vaguely remember, as opposed to implying it could be a new, novel incident. "in 2018" would be the better way to say that though.

Actually, the best thing about Bluesky is that it's lower volume and less relentless. Really no way to become fully distraction-consumed and waste hours as endless nonsense and arguments fly by. For the brainworm rotted set, that makes it boring. But it's a big reason it's so much more pleasant here

This was every city every night of Mike's career. It might have been fewer grown men actually in an MJ jersey — but that's mainly cause you could actually get beat up doing that in the Garden, MSG and a few other places back then. But half the away crowd was always Mike fans in 75% of arenas.
