  1. Dems: We should make sure kids have quality education, access to healthcare and food. GOP: That's cOmMuNiSm
  2. It was a coup with extensive pre-planning and placement of pro-coup officials. In the lame duck period, Trump purged the Pentagon, AG and Defense Department, among others. Trump installed loyalists willing to bend/break rules that even Bill Barr wouldn't touch. Fucking Devin Nunes toady, and all around shitheel, Kash Patel was the Secretary of Defense's Chief of Staff. The new Secretary of Defense who took direct control of the D.C. National Guard, but only for January 5th and 6th. While the situation escalated, the National Guard was held up for critical hours before finally deploying. Mike Flynn's brother Charles helped delay the deployment https://www.esquire.com/news-politics/politics/a38439573/january-6-national-guard-delayed-trump-pentagon-officials/ If Pelosi had accepted 10,000 troops, they would have been under the leadership of pro-Trump and pro-coup zealots. I don't know what would have happened, but the odds of something even more catastrophic happening would have been fairly high.
  3. [T-55 crews] Damndest thing Sir. All 5 of T-55's lined up side by side have same engine problem. Blyat tank, like woman, maintenances cycles have synced. Once fixed, we will have transmission problem. Then maybe something go wrong with treads. Oh well, we have stay here. [/T-55 crews]
  4. Hence why it took 5 of them to change that lightbulb.
  5. We deservedly shit on Russia a lot here, but it's important to give credit to them when the occasion calls for it. The Russian Navy has a long and distinguished career of failure, but even considering that, losing so many boats to a country with no navy is a monumental accomplishment. Achievements like this are special and should be celebrated. Maybe aggy can loan them a space in the Hall Of Champions* to put up a plaque. That's the second or third time they've hit Romania in a short amount of time. Clearly, our deterrence is not working and needs to be significantly expanded. At a minimum, we should set up an air defense bubble over Western Ukraine and allow the Ukrainians to move their equipment further east to protect citizens and Ukrainian troops.
  6. Ukraine was dropping bombs like Quinn Ewers.
  7. Geolocated images show both the Ropucha and Kilo on fire.
  8. Pictures are starting to surface. I'm going to break it into a couple of posts in case it crashes. Looks like at least the Ropucha is fucked, probably Kilo too. There were reports on Russian Telegram channels that both the Ropucha and Kilo were damaged, but they've been deleted. Geolocated images show both the Ropucha and Kilo on fire. First, the Ropucha. Bigger shot of the left image that shows the damage better.
  9. This is Surly. Shitter may be full, but there's always room for more shit. It's like Jello.
  10. Some, I assume, are good people. On a serious note though, my MIL is Venezuelan. Excellent arepas can be good, but the bulk of them are overrated and tend towards too dry. Cachapas and patacones are both fucking awesome and are usually a far superior choice to arepas. You haven't lived until you've had a pabellon on a patacone, preferably with a papelon con limon.
  11. Fuck Briles. Baylor should have been stripped of their football program and no coach from those Baylor teams should be employable anywhere. Props to Castiglione, Venables and OU for speaking out about it now, though they did open themselves up to it by hiring Lebby in the first place.
  12. To paraphrase Royal, if a dog's gonna bite, he'll bite as a pup. Anthony Hill is laying under the porch gnawing on Alabama's severed leg.
  13. Get some sort of small pillow, or stuffed animal plush that you can use to brace and support the muscle wall with when you are standing, sitting, or getting up. It keeps the incision site from expanding due to the movements of bowels.
  14. THERE WE FUCKING GO
  15. I like this Worthy throwing the deep pass thing.
  16. These interviews during game play suck. Let the coaches do their job and then talk to the reporters during dead time.
  17. If anyone finds this hat, can y'all post a link and/or PM me? I've been looking for awhile and can't find one. Gracias.
  18. Cross posted from the Elon thread. Re Elon turning off Starlink and blocking the Ukrainian attack on the Black Sea Fleet. When those drones washed ashore harmlessly, it also gave Russia intact drones to dismantle and learn how to stop them. Elon shut the drones off in early Sept 2022. The drones washed up on the shore in late September 2022. It would have taken the Russians a long time to reconstruct enough of the drones to prepare defenses, but Elon just handed them some intact ones. https://www.navalnews.com/naval-news/2022/09/ukraines-new-weapon-to-strike-russian-navy-in-sevastopol/ Ukraine had launched 6 drones going for a surprise kill shot on the Russian Black Sea Fleet. Elon personally shut it off and told the Russian ambassador he did so. https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2023/09/07/elon-musk-starlink-ukraine-russia-invasion/ How many civilians have Russian missile cruisers and missile subs killed since September 2022? Elon is personally responsible for every one of those deaths.

  20. Utah got fucked hard there. There is no honest way to overturn that call. It was clearly a catch and a fumble. It's not remotely close. With Rising, Utah would be boat racing the rapists.
  21. With the reports that Ukraine will be likely to succeed by winter coming out recently hot and heavy, plus now sending ATACMS, looks like NATO/DOD are smelling blood in the water.
  22. They've got the same body shape, but I'm taking the Penguin in the cage match.
  23. "The pride and winning tradition of The University of Texas will not be entrusted to the weak or the timid, but it will be entrusted to the awful and annoying, especially in the cases of Bob Cole and Lowell Galindo."
