  1. Keep laughing at Vlad and making jokes at his expense. Zelenskyy says Putin is afraid of humor, calling comedy a 'powerful weapon' for spreading truth https://www.businessinsider.com/zelenskyy-says-putin-is-afraid-of-humor-calls-comedy-a-powerful-weapon-2022-4
  2. and then it got weird...
  3. Oh, I agree. It's not feasible at all in the short-term, which is why the best time to start was years ago. The second best time is right now. It would take a deliberate and monumental shift that we are extremely unlikely to take, but we are funding our own demise if we don't.
  4. It's well past time for the West to start looking critically at the actions of India and China and start holding them accountable. China, especially, should no longer be considered a developing nation. They are clearly Superpower #2. The favorable treatment and lower standards needed to be stopped a long time ago. If they want to get in bed with Russia, sanction their asses. Regardless of if they get further in bed with Russia, this shows the folly of relying on dictatorships as a major trading partner. The West needs to pull our manufacturing and the US needs to focus on building the capability and prosperity in our own hemisphere.
  5. Only if the West takes our eye off the ball and let up on the assistance. Russia has lost a catastrophic amount of equipment that they can't replace. As long as the US and NATO keep flooding Ukraine with weapons, especially if we make more of an effort to get them more of the heavy shit the UA needs, Russia learning from their mistakes will be too little too late.
  6. [ralphwiggum] I'm a torpedo! [/ralphwiggum]
  7. I agree. I feel mixed. War sucks and is awful, but when the Emperor has no clothes, laughter is the most effective weapon in the world. The worst thing for a wannabe strongman is for people to laugh and ridicule him.
  8. Why are they so mad and ready to massively retaliate, if it was a fire onboard that just exploded some ammunition? Seems the Russians might have some mis-directed anger here.
  9. Bumping in case anyone missed this. It's hilarious. Ukraine's internet/meme deployment remains masterful.
  10. https://www.airforcemag.com/article/0808battle/ This is how Hitler lost the battle of Britain. A dictator's wounded pride. Only a power-crazed, vengeful idiot takes this route. Hitler ground down and destroyed the Luftwaffe's ability to project power, while letting the RAF off the mat. Sucks hard for the civilians, but aside from artillery shells, the Russians can't replace many of these assets. Every civilian target is one less missile/bomb targeting the UA military. It also gives the military an additional chance to target the missile/aircraft, while not being under fire themselves.
  11. Раз, два, три, Not it.
  12. Troll spam flagged on Twitter as age-restricted.
  13. Fucking Russian trolls got these flagged on Twitter as age-restricted content. Anything embarrassing to them, they mass report. Apparently, losing their flagship, which is named after their capital, is hitting them every bit as hard as you'd hope it would.
  14. Motherfucker can't even grow a mustache and those stupid fucks want to put him in the Senate?
  15. Never thought of it that way, but the ones that work on non-avian dinosaurs kind of are. There's lots of paleontologists that work on other animals too though, both vertebrate and invertebrate. Historically, a lot of ornithologists hated the idea that some dinosaurs evolved into birds, feeling that it somehow made birds less special. That said, the evidence is overwhelming and has been for decades. I'd guess the upcoming group of ornithologists is far more receptive.
  16. Pos rep for listing three groups of dinosaurs that are all extinct.
  17. Unfortunate, but that's reality. They'll scream till they are red in the face that government is corrupt and incompetent. If you elect them, they'll damn sure try to fulfill that prophecy. They want to break things and hurt people. As long as it's the right things and people hurt, that's a feature, not a bug.
  18. Good point. Everyone make sure to mention this when you call Gaetz' office. The busses are already trafficking the minor across state lines. Gaetz doesn't have to do it himself.
  19. Also, where are we going to find a prostitute with a heart of gold at this hour? Oh, that's right...Westheimer.
  20. Fitting, for the GQP, that the Velociraptor Reagan is riding is vastly oversized and has no feathers. It's all puffed up "Movie Magic" and then there is also the Velociraptor.
  21. That ape toed quarter-wit needs to shut the fuck up.
  22. No matter what we do, they'll be opposed, because the Dems control the Presidency and Congress. Any move Biden makes will be called the biggest foreign policy mistake since Benghazi. Whatever Biden does, they will scream that he should have done the other thing, no matter what that other thing is.
  23. Unsuccessfully. Despite him and his dipshits firing repeatedly, the light is still green at the end of the clip. Those dudes make Stormtroopers look like crack marksmen.
  24. If you're going to snort off your hand, go old school and use your anatomical snuff box like our ancestors did. It's a triangular shaped trough formed by 3 tendons running from the forearm to the thumb. https://teachmeanatomy.info/upper-limb/areas/anatomical-snuffbox/ To form the depression, do an aggy thumb's up, but pull the thumb as far backwards towards your forearm as your thumb muscles will let you. Adjust and fine tune thumb position until you get the biggest trough. Achievement Unlocked.
  25. "and why shouldn't I root for Russia, which I am." Tucker Carlson After a commercial break and some time to think about how stupid it was to admit that, he said later he was "joking" and only rooting for "Amerika".
