A tweet from Miles Brundage sardonically asking whether anyone in Iran is running water plant security evaluations, quote-tweeting Dustin Volz's report that cyberattacks on US water systems have expanded to Michigan and other states, with Iran suspected despite Trump's public rejection of that idea.

Kelsey Piper (verified) @KelseyTuoc · 1h Iran war reactions which were promoted by the algorithm to my attention have distinct commonalities by country: Israelis: "here we are in the bomb shelter with our adorable children, full of hope!" Iranians: "the dictator is gone, and our people are celebrating! my relatives who were murdered on Khamenei's orders are avenged!" Americans: "this is going great/we thought that three days into Desert Storm too/we hit a school/that was the Iranians/no it wasn't but it was an accident/why are we doing this/I hate Israel/damn it's fun to be good at things though/how do we get our munitions numbers up?" UAE: "okay, my flight was cancelled due to one of the bombings, but I got a complementary hotel stay and an upgrade to a Gold suite!"
