  1. https://news.az/news/zelensky-ukraine-will-not-admit-debt-to-the-us-of-either-500-billion-or-100-billion Zelensky rejects subjugating generations of their children to America with the $500,000,000,000 """reparations""" demand
  2. Elmo left his prop behind on the stage, whoopsie poopsie (Re-uploading the video to surly) f8cund07xyke1DASH_480.mp4 Poor kid.
  3. Genuinely if you're interested in the "why" this series is an incredible listen https://www.dancarlin.com/product/hardcore-history-62-Supernova-in-the-East-i/ It's on all the places you'd listen to a podcast But they were doing to China what Russia is doing to Ukraine right now. Rape of Nanjing and all that
  4. Every. Accusation. Is. A. Confession.
  5. I would bet mandatory vaccination scheduled for public education are gonna be out the window by the end of this presidential term. We've got a heroin addict with a history of literal brain worms leading up the charge against vaccination guidelines as the goddamn Secretary of Health and Human Services. The fucker used to sell baby onesies that said "Unvaxxed. Unafraid." for fucks sake.
  6. Thank goodness everyone decided to do their own research on vaccines.
  7. Truly - if Germany had not declared war on America it's a high likelihood the Normandy landings or any sort of united front would not have formed against the fascists in Europe and Africa. They are at their strongest when the powers that be would rather look away and make deals with the bully rather than confront their evil. Once there is no more pretext of ignoring the bully and hoping they'll move on to leave you alone, only then, do they start to lose power.
  8. Your history is pretty different from my reading of history. The US was very much not staying "neutral" while acting as "the arsenal of democracy" prior to the US formally joining the war as a belligerent. The only reason the US was not actively involved in the fighting was the incorrect popular belief that whatever happened in Europe would stay in Europe. German U-boats were sinking merchant marine tonnage starting in the late 1930s. Further, Germany declared war on America on its own. The tripartite pact did not require or demand mutual defense. Your science is way off too. Germany was a LONG way from the Bomb. We know this for a fact. They had a wrong model of the atom and were nowhere close to a self sustaining reaction, much less a prompt supercritical mass required for a nuclear detonation. Ironically, much of their scientific failure was due to rejection of "Jewish" science. I do wonder how many advancements we will lose out on as Americans due to cutting off "Woke" sciences.
  9. Major shift in stance for Ukraine BBC: Zelensky willing to give up presidency in exchange for Ukraine Nato membership That page has a bunch of news updates, but Zelensky is putting the resource deal on the table for real security guarantees. I hope we don't welch on those brave defenders if a deal is struck.
  10. Gotta say, it's real funny how y'all run with criticism of how a company treats it's employees and spin that into me being anti-capitalist. Forcing employee churn just to keep the fear in em is dog shit management. Treat your employees like people, not numbers on a page. Laying them off and publicly proclaiming they're all dog shit is spiking the football and just ghoulish.
  11. Hey @Anastasis this is why it's extremely believable that POTUS is a Kremlin asset. He's straight up violating decades old treaties to the benefit of mother russia and detriment of her former vassal states
  12. This is literally just being a dictator at this point What the fuck
  13. Some water head had their model Y cruising at 65 in a 75 in the left lane on 290 yesterday going Hou->AUS. They do seem to be more inattentive and uncertain drivers, which makes for a less predictable and more dangerous driving environment.
  14. I really appreciate the speed in their story telling. Last week Milchick threatened iMark with the whole "you tell Helly you fuck her outie yet?", and this week iMark talks to Helly about banging Helena. Poor oMark, now two versions of Helena have banged him, but he doesn't remember any of it Edit: I just noticed gsoda said the same thing few posts up /facepalm
  15. Sure is a nice communications network... Sure would be a shame if anything happened to it... https://www.reuters.com/business/us-could-cut-ukraines-access-starlink-internet-services-over-minerals-say-2025-02-22/ During the meeting, Ukraine was told it faced imminent shutoff of the service if it did not reach a deal on critical minerals, said the source, who requested anonymity to discuss closed negotiations. "Ukraine runs on Starlink. They consider it their North Star," said the source. "Losing Starlink ... would be a massive blow." Zelenskiy has rejected demands from President Donald Trump's administration for $500 billion in mineral wealth from Ukraine to repay Washington for wartime aid, saying the U.S. has offered no specific security guarantees.
  16. But seriously, is he up to a dozen now?
  17. Even at a $20B valuation, it would suck to lose 5% of your total net worth in a day. Man, if one air pod is 5% of your net worth wut is you doin bb Further, his wealth is pegged to the value of $TSLA, which if he didn't have Twitter, wouldn't be getting pumped and maintained
  18. Man that must be one hell of a watch to stand, never even rotating crews after deployments. I guess they just burn the ship when the captain retires huh
  19. STOP BRINGING TRANS ISSUES!!! /immamac, probably Yeah, pretty crazy that bugaboo make a cameo in this clip. For fucks sake, who would have guessed that hate for transgender people would be enough to gain all encompassing power.
  20. Ok, I may need to steal "Vladimir Poutine" that's funny
  21. Ward "Mooch" Carrol has a big omnibus video on the totality of US statements and actions in favor of russia and putin. He's joined by professor Justin Bronk
  22. Isn't that.... how you would want things to be? Ships are manned, and it's not the same crew 24/7/365 - that would be horrible for readiness and our servicemembers
