North Korea has fired "several projectiles" into sea off its eastern coast, the South Korean military says.

The missile was launched from a site in the North Korean province of Gangwon and flew for about 250km (150 miles), officials in the South said.

North Korea has accelerated its missile testing programme.

Since firing an intercontinental ballistic weapon last month, Pyongyang has threatened to aim missiles at the US Pacific territory of Guam.

6. Arms Control Wonk has more; looks like artillery barrage.

Which is not that bad, and is more or less expected given that joint exercises (us and SK) are in progress.

Lil Kim always points out that he's there during joint exercises. It's a family tradition.

It's worth watching, if only because we've got our own narcissistic asshole, but it's not that bad at this point.

9. I dreamt the other night,

that I was in the White House. I could see everything; but could go from room to room unseen.

I walked into the living quarters, and there was Cheeto: putting on his suit and tie, and getting ready to start his workday (such as it is).

"I've decided to do it," he said, raising his chin in that Mussolini-esque style of his. "I'm going to bomb North Korea."

"But sir," and adviser said. "Shouldn't we consult..."

"Nah! I've made up my mind; we're gonna do it."

Does it mean anything? I sure as hell hope not.
