We've officially reached Schrödinger's Strait... It's simultaneously always open and closed.

But each time a tanker tries to transit the strait, there is quantum waveform collapse.

You need to use the deflector array to send a tachyon wave pulse with reversed polarity through the straight to stabilize the wormhole uh I mean straight. Duh. Sorry I watch too much star trek.

I don’t know. It sounds like some kind of illogical fallacy, Captain. Recommend proceeding with extreme caution into spending an entire evening on your seat of choice with a truly unhealthy amount of snacks and refreshments while you watch the voyages of the starship Enterprise.

octarine-noise Apr 15, 2026 +9
Send in a bunch of tankers at once, and observe the diffraction pattern they make exiting the strait. It should be possible to deduce the optimum angle/phase to send in a large number of coherent entangled tankers so they all make it through.

I_only_post_here Apr 15, 2026 +77
Y'know, I remember seeing someone posting right as this whole conflict with Iran was starting that this was the big 4D Chess move by Trump. They acknowledged that it was a big gamble, but it was a move to gain leverage over China by cutting off their energy supply and reassert ourselves as the one and only superpower. Wonder what that guy thinks now seeing that Trump wants to let China get easy access to that oil again... oh nevermind, they'll find some mental gymnastics to jump around this too.

I still feel like Nixon did nothing compared to one of his successors. > During his 1990 deposition regarding the Iran-Contra affair, former President Ronald Reagan stated "I don't recall" or "I can't remember" 88 times over two days of testimony. Some reports indicate that in total, including various statements, he used similar phrases at least 124 times to describe his memory lapses on specific details, according to the Los Angeles Times.

Yeah Nixon and Ford totally disillusioned me as regards to politics. And then we elected a f****** actor who dutifully played the part. This craziness has been going on a long time. Trump brought publicity to it but the same shit has been happening since young people scared those in power in the 60s.

Or the people who chose not to vote. At least MAGA, misguided and evil as they are, did their democratic duty. Choosing not to vote while the world is filling up with dictators is like throwing a 10 course meal on the ground during a famine. F*** them.

> At least MAGA, misguided and evil as they are, did their democratic duty. If they don’t do any actual research or fact-checking I’m not sure if they really did their democratic duty. If I’m supposed to walk the dog, and I walk her around the house in 2 minutes and come back home, without her having an opportunity to go to bathroom, did I *really* walk the dog? But yeah I agree with the general sentiment. Not voting is dumb as f***.

Yes the most famous case of that was “the frito bandito” he was an arson investigator investigating his own arsons. He wrote fiction books that would be use in court to help convict him. For example when he was scouting out a place he would hear people have conversations and put that in his “fiction” book
86
ruinersclub Apr 15, 2026 +102
China has been getting Oil Tankers since Day 1. This is just Trump admitting his blockade doesn’t work and he isn’t going to stand up to China. This is the biggest military failure in U.S. History.
102

Certainly not the biggest military *failure* for the US but probably the most incompetent.

This is Trump's standard process, actually. He creates a problem, then he later works to undo the problem he created, and finally he claims that he is the greatest person ever for solving the problem he created.

This is classic Trump as described by one of his ex staffers from the previous administration: “first Trump breaks it, then he takes credit for fixing it”
2213
Wompatuckrule Apr 15, 2026 +1077
A further key point is how he takes credit for fixing the thing while it remains broken.
1077
punkindle Apr 15, 2026 +280
or someone else fixes it, without him doing jack, and he takes credit for it.
280
Wompatuckrule Apr 15, 2026 +156
Exactly, he wants all of the credit (even when he has nothing to do with success), but will take none of the blame (even when it's undeniably his fault). He is a man-child in that regard and [this quote captured by his biographer](https://theweek.com/speedreads/575962/donald-trump-tells-biographer-hes-same-now-first-grade) is probably the single biggest truth Trump has ever uttered: >"When I look at myself in the first grade and I look at myself now, I’m basically the same. The temperament is not that different."

DiveCat Apr 15, 2026 +76
I bring this up fairly regularly. It is f****** pathetic to be an adult that is proud of being emotionally stuck at 7 years old. It’s even more pathetic to elect that adult to lead a country.

Wompatuckrule Apr 15, 2026 +80
>It’s even more pathetic to elect that adult to lead a country. The phrase I think which captures that is, "He's a poor man's idea of a rich man, a stupid man's idea of a smart man and a weak man's idea of a strong man."

It may reflect the possibility that about 40% of Americans are emotionally stuck around age 7, and see themselves in him. If that is actually true, we need a reformation of humanity at this point to survive.
19
TheWorclown Apr 15, 2026 +27
That one detail, specifically about COVID, baffles me. He was in the perfect position to take all the credit if he just told everyone to listen to Fauci and reap all the personal benefits. *Any* president would have done that. It’s the easiest political win. This f****** guy truly cannot even stand the thought of sharing any of the credit. He’d rather light everything on fire than admit that.
27

Isn't that like the classic small time mafia protection racket setup? Mom and pop store gets windows smashed overnight. Next morning a shifty looking guy shows up and suggests that perhaps they'd like to pay him a steadily increasing fee each month so he can "make sure it won't happen again"...
25
OW2007 Apr 15, 2026 +19
It's been the classic Republican move for decades. Cut funding for and demonize thing they don't like - things that actually help common people (education, social safety net, the f****** Post Office, etc) Thing starts to fail because it doesn't have enough funding. Republicans say "look at that awful program failing. Time to privatize it." And Republican voters fall for it every time.

It's as simple as the US cannot blockade Chinese ships so this is about saving face rather than admitting he was forced to. It's why the Chinese ships where repeatedly crossing the blockade and going back again, to demonstrate this.

Americans are happy for this too! For every American radar dish destroyed and AA armament depleted, an American military hardware supplier gets a big fat check from the government. It is the ultimate form of jobs creator. Money will rain down from on high, the S&P will top 50k, and Jonny Arkansas will find a good manufacturing job making missiles at Huntington.

21
zen_cricket Apr 15, 2026 +11
I mean, it worked for Reagan. “*Federal prosecutors hate this one trick!*” It’s bullshit though, you should still be made to stand account for your actions. It’s not like there aren’t people on the other side of the fence incarcerated that have dementia. They don’t get released due to dementia, but instead continue serving their sentences. There’s more than enough evidence to warrant a conviction without him ever having to take the stand, unless he chooses to. But if there is no accountability at the conclusion of this, we will cease to be a country of laws and order. A case can be made that we’ve already crossed the Rubicon, and the die has been cast. Time will tell.

As a non-America living in the US I can say that most don't support him, but the way the system here "works" means that he doesn't need a majority to support him he just needs to organize districts so he wins more of those. No need to chase votes.

He blockaded the blockade and we all know double negative makes a positive.

Max-Phallus Apr 15, 2026 +11
You mean: Iran closed the strait and America couldn't reliably reopen it, so to save face they blockaded it. But then when they couldn't reliably blockade it, they announced that they had opened it?

…and people just ignored him, so now it’s open

ruinersclub Apr 15, 2026 +15
They didn’t ignore him… This is Trump admitting he doesn’t want the smoke from Xi.

Prestigious_Face7727 Apr 15, 2026 +19
I mean, every rando on Listnook's first thought was "no way he's going to fire on a Chinese tanker, so the blockade can't work". Only one (orange) person didn't think of that.

Anyone notice he now calls the Gulf of America, Gulf of Mexico now? When did America face such a disastrous loss, that they surrendered that gulf? How many good MAGA keyboard warriors injured their fingers demanding that war be fought? And for what? Such a waste... DOGE died for this....

It may depend where you are located. In canada it says: Gulf of Mexico (Gulf of America)

But that may be worse because it seems they did that everwhere outside the US, even in other languages. Here (nl-BE) I get ”Golf van Mexico (Golf van Amerika)” - even though _nobody_ uses the latter and the implication that the US predident gets to decide not just what the US gov’t says but rule over the toponyms of every language is ridiculous and offensive. By that precedent, the King of Belgium ought to be allowed to rename Mar-a-Lago to _Het Pedopaleis_ and Google in the USA should then display ”Mar-a-Lago (the Pedo Palace)”.

Can you guys impeach him? Please?

Jsmith0730 Apr 15, 2026 +170
He’s been impeached twice. It’s an empty gesture unless the Senate moves to convict, which’ll never happen.
170
TheWorclown Apr 15, 2026 +35
Which, truly, even in sane times the Senate would never do. I don’t trust them to have that spine. This country of mine *fears* setting precedent like that. Trump’s whole second term is the consequence of fearing precedent for politicians and dragging feet through the legal process.

Shills_for_fun Apr 15, 2026 +19
You need a 2/3 majority in the Senate to remove him from office, if that's what you're asking.

I won't lie, it was a little weird for the first couple weeks after Biden took office... everything so quiet... But I'm back to the point where I miss the days when I'd sit on the can first thing in the morning, look at whats new in the news... and there'd be nothing from the president.

HAHAHA China just owned his ass by saying "I'm going through the strait, don't f*** with my boats." Actually they didn't even say it, they just did it and his big magical blockade didn't do shit so now Trump HAS to say "I LET THEM IN". Absolute bullshit.

Has nobody told him that it was never closed for China, except by USA, if they would have chosen to enforce it.

Loony Dementia Don. Every day I am just befuddled that he was elected not once but twice.

I think the funniest thing about Trump is that he’s unironically exactly what the cliche of how people view a typical US person.

Every hug Trump is involved in is “fat” by default.

DramaticWesley Apr 15, 2026 +15
His attacks on Iran is what closed the strait, and now he wants to be congratulated for fixing his own mess (which he actually hasn’t done yet)? Sometimes I wonder if we are living in the worst timeline.
15
Potential_Salt_5780 Apr 15, 2026 +29
So he starts an unnecessary war, declares victory, gets the strait closed, blocks the closed strait unsuccessfully, and says China likes him?
29
ruinersclub Apr 15, 2026 +22
China never stopped getting tankers. This is Trump admitting he won’t step up to Xi.

Scumsoft Apr 15, 2026 +11
He didn't do shit for China. China did what it wanted and seeing that he couldn't stop them, now he's taking credit for it.

The stock market manipulation continues. He's happy, his friends are happy, and the entire rest of the world is just exhausted and sick of his shit. I'd say let's keep mentioning the Epstein files, but at this point, it's pretty clear another reason he keeps up with this bullshit is so that we find other urgent things to focus on and talk about instead of that.

It was never closed to China except by Trump. So, I guess you could say Trump opened it for China. Typical half-assed solving of a problem that Trump, himself, has created and demanding adulation.

Queltis6000 Apr 15, 2026 +6
