    Like many other women + working people, I occasionally suffer from impostor syndrome: those small moments, especially on hard days, where you wonder if the haters are right. But then they do things like this to clear it right up. If this guy can be Senator, you can do anything.

    Another instance of intra-rebel fighting in Efrin. al-Jabha al-Shamiya & Liwa' Shuhada Badr headed by Abu al-Qasem Deiri clashed in Kafr Janna. Apparently, Shuhada Badr attempted to confiscate the home of a civilian close to al-Jabha al-Shamiya.

    Exonerating a fascist terrorist because you're an antisemite. Amazing.

    Dude, it’s like a show that you didn’t like anyway but for some reason kept watching that should have ended after 12 episodes and here you are 22 eps later and the writers are just ambling around and we have no idea how or when the whole thing will finish or why still watching.

    ISIS just claimed responsibility for the attack in Manbij, claiming they have killed 9 SDF ("PKK apostates") in Manbij last night using machine gun fire. They also claim to have captured the weapons & ammunition of those killed.

    Interesting headline from the prime minister's plane. A "senior diplomatic source" (AKA Bibi) said that Trump recognizing Israeli sovereignty on the Golan is important precedent regarding area captured in "defensive war". In other words, signaling possible annexation of Area C.
