The world we live in isn't just dystopic, it isn't just stupid, trying to describe all the ways it sucks just makes for a really boring story.

The U.S.-Israeli war with Iran has thrown the region into chaos, killing thousands of people, costing billions of dollars, and sending energy prices to their highest levels since the invasion of Ukraine.

As the conflict enters its second month, more than 4,500 people have lost their lives, according to reports from more than a dozen countries dragged into the war since February 28.

For 20 years now Ive been saying that the US would eventually attack Iran. It was inevitable. I also said that it would be a war that would lead absolutely nowhere, cost lives and so much money. Theres soooo much money to be made though. Those missles dont build themselves and they certainly arent cheap. So, huzzah for the military industial complex and war profiteering! It's not like the US politicians wouldnt do something as shady as using insider information for monetary gain.
