It’s Monday. Well, damn. I’ve been having some issues with my left arm for a couple weeks now. I thought it was just a pulled muscle or two because it was only mildly uncomfortable and didn’t interfere with activities. A couple days ago I was out at the park throwing the ball around for Abby and a click developed in my shoulder. By that night I realized it definitely wasn’t a muscle issue. A trip to an orthopedic surgeon a couple days later confirmed what likely are multiple tears in my rotator cuff. I have an MRI scheduled for next week that should reveal the extent of the damage.
It even hurts to type.
Dammit.

LEGO Iran
It’s Tuesday. Iran has dropped yet another AI-generated, LEGO-style video—this time taking direct shots at Trump with all the subtlety of a plastic brick to the face. This one leans hard into meme humor and over-the-top animation, turning global tensions involving Iran, the U.S., and Israel into something that is as slick as a big-budget Hollywood movie. It’s ridiculous, funny, and very clearly designed to get under Trump’s skin.
But behind the goofy minifig chaos, there’s actually a pretty calculated move going on. These videos are part of a broader digital propaganda push, with Iranian accounts and affiliated groups boosting them across social media like they’re trying to win an Oscar. It’s public opinion meme warfare, 2026 edition, and right now they’re killing it.
