Spielberg's Disclosure Day
One of the writers or somebody associated with the film wouldn't confirm or deny if it's set within the Close Encounters of the Third Kind universe.

What the fuck is wrong with you, Austin?
At least he has a unique name and that and his face are plastered on the internet for future employers, dates, etc. to find.

Trump’s America
She's in it for herself. She knows she was being recorded. Trump's cabinet members aren't really denying she said what she said because it's true and/or they know she was recorded. If this is some 4D chess bullshit, I don't see how it helps him since these interviews were over a long period of time, and they couldn't time VF's release of the article with anything the administration is doing.

Things not going well in Venezuela
I don't think this is related to Venezuela, but reading his social media, you really can't tell. And we are putting a blockade of sorts "around" Venezuela.

I notice that none of them are really denying what she said, and even her post says things were taken out of context. And we know they have tapes (I doubt VF pushes all of that out there unless they had tapes). Next day or two will be interesting.

At least we stopped pretending it was about drugs and are openly stating it's about oil. Not sure what land they stole, or should I say "Land" but yeah...- Русский корабль - иди нахуй
Yeah, it gets into the whole discussion about the fact that if we don't, China will happily fill that void, and what will be the economic and other repercussions for that. I'm oversimplifying, but when you look at the British up through the 1940s, and then our filling that void during and after WWII, both the Brits and us were not doing it solely out of some benevolent act of goodness or to prevent future wars (although that was a huge driver obviously for the US after 1945, and we used it to accumulate a lot of forward bases overseas). However, a huge driver of it was to make sure that the markets and resources in other parts of the world were open to our commercial interests. Even when you factor in the Soviets during the Cold War and discuss the political/ideological implications, at the end of the day, you could argue that having a massive Navy (and Air Force) was driven mostly by financial reasoning. We could dress it up and say it was Communism vs Democracy or whatever terms you wanted to use, but we knew that where the Soviets exerted their power, that those were markets and resources that American companies would be locked out of. And arguably that economic access helped pay for our massive military. The same holds true now, only with the Chinese. In that aspect, Ukraine and our tariff situation are catalysts - where we pull back, China quietly moves in - they've even made overtures to Europe in terms of the economic aspect. But that's more for a thread on China. Us pulling back as the arsenal of democracy over the last 4 years is going to be a huge issue going forward - countries will pivot away from us and to Europe and South Korea for their defense needs. Both of those could be threads in the business/finance forum.- Trump’s America
I feel like there are recordings of her interviews. I always love how they say he's done more in 11 months than any President in 8 years. I feel like FDR probably accomplished more in the 8 years leading up to his death, but that's just me.- Русский корабль - иди нахуй

Sky News reports that Britain, at the "Ramstein" format meeting, announced the allocation of a large air defence aid package to Ukraine worth nearly €685 million. British Defence Secretary John Healey said that Kyiv will receive air defence systems, missiles, and automated turrets for shooting down drones.

I'm enjoying the pivot into antisemitism that so many on the right are going through. I'm sure that will play well in Florida.- Trump’s America
- Charlie Kirk got ded, Erika Kirk grifts in place
Yep, these people used to be confined to the back rooms of bookstores or student unions or some cheap restaurant late at night. They very clearly knew their views were not mainstream, and it was not easy to spread them around. Here in 2025, they can blast it out to all of their relatives at no cost, within seconds, not to mention around the world.- Русский корабль - иди нахуй

The war in the Black Sea absolutely exposes Russian weaknesses and serves a lesson how to defeat a superior opponent, using technology and smart strategies. The Russian offensive operations in the Black Sea have completely reversed. In stage one they launched a blockade against Odesa, Ukraine. The sinking of the Russian flagship, Moskva, abruptly ended this operation. Russians were forced to break off their blockade and withdraw to the occupied peninsula of Crimea. In the second stage Russians tried to hold the line, while firing long-range missiles into Ukraine. The Russian-occupied harbour of Sevastopol, Russian-occupied Ukraine, was the lynchpin of this operation. When Ukrainian long-range missile destroyed the Russian headquarters along the submarine Rostov-on-Don in August 2024 and other warships in this sector, this operation fell apart. Again, Russians were forced to further retreat. The third and current stage started with the withdrawal of the Russian Black Sea fleet back to Russia, making Novorossiysk the new headquarters. The operations from there has been similar to those conducted from Sevastopol. The greater distance to the combat zones in Ukraine should have made things easier, but the last weeks proved otherwise. New drones have penetrated Russian defenses and struck Novorossiysk multiple times, including Russian air defense assets The strike today against the Russian submarine "Varshavyanka" marks the beginning of the end of Russia's last naval holdout in this region. Russians will never ever feel safe anywhere in the Black Sea. Together with raids against Russian shadow fleet tankers, this will further complicate Russian abilities to wage war against Ukraine, as well as any other states in the Black Sea region. I wouldn't be surprised when Moscow will soon "offer" a naval truce. For the Asia-Pacific region this development will be of great importance. From the comments First, the Japanese sank the original admiral Makarov, and the Ukrainians sank the ship Admiral Makarov, which was christened in his honor.- Русский корабль - иди нахуй
The Ukrainian general staff has confirmed that the Astrakhan gas processing station was struck last night. Locals reported of explosions and unusual fires have been seen on videos. NASA FIRMS map detected a large heat source after the strikes. The damage assessment is underway. Aside from processing gas, the station feeds from the Caspian Pipeline Consortium (CPC), connecting natural gas transports from Tengiz, Kazakhstan, to Novorossiysk, Russia. Ukrainian forces already struck facilities of that pipeline in the past.- Trump’s America

I've listened to some of his stuff (not much), and he can be like Zeihan and a little long-winded, but he seems good for those not following things too closely and who aren't aware of a lot of the day-to-day stuff (and can be listened to in the background). - Things not going well in Venezuela
