    From BBC live updates

    Among the images emerging from the latest Russian strikes against Kyiv, we’ve been looking at one dramatic clip circulating on social media.

    It appears to be from CCTV footage and shows a missile hitting an apartment complex.

    We’ve confirmed the building struck was just across the street from the British Council’s office in the city centre.

    It’s in an affluent area called Cherepanova Hora which is home to major attractions like the Kyiv Planetarium and Olympic Stadium.

    The attacks across the city have killed at least 17 people, including four children, and wounded dozens of others according to Ukrainian officials.

    The first-quarter GDP drop, the first retreat of the U.S. economy in three years, was mainly caused by a surge in imports — which are subtracted from GDP — as businesses scrambled to bring in foreign goods ahead of Trump’s tariffs.

    Imports are not subtracted from GDP. C, I, and G all have some amount of imports counted in them, so those imports are subtracted to remove them from C, I, and G so that they're simply not considered. Which is why imports is on that side of the equation.Ā Ā

    There are literally 4 spots there. Just because 5 small cars could park there doesn’t mean they have to.

    Another Grand Cherokee or Q5 could fit if everyone parked tighter. Quit trying to justify people's shit ass parallel parking.Ā

    Not sure what the issue there would be to begin with.Ā  It's a space for 4 vehicles, and there are 4 vehicles in the space.

    Definitely room for 5 if people didn't feel the need to leave 4+ feet front and back. I've watched people pull into a space large enough for 2 normal size SUVs and then center themselves rather than pulling up or back in the space. So, no, while I can't confirm an F350 crew cab with extended bed just left, it seems unlikely with the number of blocks I see just like this. And downtown Houston parallel parking doesn't typically have marked spaces.Ā

    hat tip to c-man for linking this in another thread, as for why everything has been turning into a gray-beige box. It's not wokeness, and """trolling""" over it is just another smoke screen to distract from the president's child rape. Say, didn't Babayaga give a WHOLE LOTTA shits about pedos a while ago?

  6. Should smash using a bench scraper not the knife. Can damage the knife or (worse) cut yourself in horrifying ways smashing with a knife. Unless you're using the butt of the knife, then carry on.Ā

    Also the press removes the skin and the mush is better for salad dressings.Ā
