  1. She wants to end all funding to Ukraine. Fuck her with a cactus.
  2. Ahhhhh. Worked. Much obliged Imma
  3. I have an iPhone 13 mini. The new iOS got uploaded a day or two ago, and now I am back to the point where this appears in the middle of the page and floats around as you try to scroll the Paige page. The last time this happened, I changed themes, which seemed to fix it. Now, no matter whether I use the default or the 18 iOS or the no avatar version, it still happens. I’m only mentioning this in case it gives you some better diagnostic as to what is happening.
  4. @PTINS - i’d love to hear your thoughts on a subject I know nothing about. I find it interesting that the city of Angarsk in Siberia - a larger city of 200,000 residents - has been largely without any building heating since December 7. This includes homes, apartments, hospitals, schools, etc. When the heat went out, the temperature was -20. Today on December 14th the heat is still out, Angarsk had a recent heat wave, so the highs are in the teens and low 20s, while trending colder at the end of the week. That said, if the temperature remains below zero for a week straight, that city’s residents are living in an icebox. This news jogged my memory about another fact I read recently, that all of the Ukrainian attacks on the refineries have prevented the refineries from planned outages to transition to winter fuel, fuel that contains the necessary ingredient to prevent fuel freezing and gelling or doing whatever it is fuel does without those ingredients. If that inability to refine winterized gas is true and continues into the December and January winter months, what effect will that have on transportation in the country? IOW, what can you tell my ignorant self about the absence of winterized refined fuel in a country so cold - and the consequences to the countries’s economy and the military operation in Ukraine?
  5. Konstantin had a recent podcast where he talked about this hacking, adding that the hackers claim to have sent all of the young computer software engineers (working on the country’s conscription system) - conscription notices to join the war.
  6. Don’t forget to fondle his balls while you’re blowing him. I also note that in the history of the NFL, no rookie quarterback has ever had a good game against a 3-11 team and then not developed over time to the point that they were no longer a starter.
  7. Proving intent to deceive beyond a reasonable doubt is one of the most difficult things to achieve as a prosecutor. And here we don’t have dozens (or hundreds) of transactions approved by the same corporate representative - a case where pure numbers of transactions would lead a reasonable juror to say that the person approving that had to have knowledge of the falsity of the statement in question. With an individual, you could have a situation where someone was going to reside in the house, and after they signed the closing papersone of her family members needed a place. So she let that family member live there. Any one of us in that position would do the same thing, and the change in behavior would not be fraudulent or malicious, but an entirely reasonable and normal thing.
  8. Not only is it an easy thing to give, preventing NATO on its borders was one of the main reasons for the special military operation. Putin invaded to prevent NATO gains on his border - and to de-Natzify the <checks notes> government led by the Jewish guy. I see this more as an opportunity to refute Putin‘s lies about the justification for the war - not directed at the non-gullible who know his reasons are bullshit - but directed at the Russian sympathizer in the White House who adopt Kremlin talking points. With one of the main goals achieved, Russia has less grounds for continuing the war….at least per their bullshit justification. I assume that the reason Trump supports Russia is purely personal and transactional - whether it’s future financial or current kompromat prevention. So I have my doubts that this will change any minds in the White House.
  9. I think most grand jurors know that Trump did the exact same thing on several Mara Lago area home purchases, so they aren’t going to indict her if they can’t indict Trump too
  10. Well, his daughter is a female, so it’s not like some more valuable alpha male was being denied prescription medication. And you know how much Nick Fuentes hates to be around women, so keeping her inside the house from now on will obviously help MAGA world.
  11. Two score game now. Just keep that defensive pressure.
  12. Apparently, the third attempt to indict James has failed. So Trump is not doing selective enforcement on James, they are just repeatedly trying to indict her even though that’s not how DOJ has ever worked.
  13. If they are indeed staffing and arming what is essentially internal security forces, that means less resources going to the Ukraine front. And I’m fine with that.
  14. With your post in mind, I see this Julia Davis info.
  15. “I am the Great Shadeholio!”
  16. Motion to nickname him Joffrey…
  17. Of course. I was referring to the children of undocumented immigrants born in the United States and now living in the Rio Grande Valley. I have zero idea what percentage of those first-generation-born-in-America Trump supporters make up voters in the RGV. I guess I naïvely thought that the machismo identifying cultural component got watered down a bit every generation - and it was more recent immigrants that were attracted to that.
  18. That seems….not wise.
  19. Seems like the GOP plans to end birthright citizenship needs to be emphasized with that crew. I see where SCOTUS is taking that up again
  20. As someone not at all familiar with RGV Mexican Trump supporters, what is the reason for that? I got mine now, raise the ladder and eliminate any future economic competition?
  21. Some friend is hiding her face with his jacket while she left the courtroom. The same waste of oxygen that uploaded pictures of a passed out guy’s naked junk with no problem, does not want to have her face recorded leaving the courtroom after she was charged with a felony. I hope they show every one of her fucking videos during sentencing to show her abject lack of contrition throughout this event. If any entitled snowflake ever deserved actual jail time, she would be it. I don’t want her in jail for 10 years, but 30 to 60 days just might educate her a bit. She has already put a fork in her future employment prospects.
  22. it seems like every third YouTube video is somebody describing how Russia’s economy won’t last much longer. I haven’t seen many describing the impact of the Russian economy’s implosion on Belarus. Put another way, is it safe to say that when Russia goes down that Belarus will be in that same situation sooner than later?
  23. Naturally, the dude is likely a self-professed Christian. Or at least a self-styled modern American evangelical Christian.
  24. if Ukraine struck Belarusian refineries that refine Russian oil and send it back to Russia, that would seem to be a legitimate military target, albeit certainly an attack viewed as aggression and a violation of Belarusian sovereignty. I remember reading years ago that Belarusian troops might not want to participate in a war versus Ukraine, and that scenario might be used by Belarusian military to overthrow the big idiot in charge - and also lead to a potential revolting population in some areas. Does anyone have an idea what military resources Belarus would bring to the war that hasn’t been given to the Russians already? Or is it a simple fact that Ukraine doesn’t have enough troops and defensive capability to protect yet another front from Belarusan meat waves? Or will the very idea of Belarusian meat waves in Ukraine topple their government? Or would Belarus be scared shitless of Poland Lithuania and Latvia and just strenuously protest? Somebody please edumacate me…
