  1. It's already being shown on Russian social media.
  2. Nobody believed Medvedev's nuclear threats, because it's the same threats that have been made since the summer of 2022. Well, nobody believed them except our President.
  3. Same shipping containers that Patriots are shipped in, and similar containers have been photographed at Patriot sites in Israel.
  4. Electric vehicle tax credit ends today. That explains why Tesla was trying to clear inventory out over the last two months.
  5. Are you saying that most people can't fit in clothes they had 30 years ago?
  6. You need to get yourself a dash cam to either protect your ass when you run one of them over, or to start putting their shit on blast.
  7. This is apparently based off of Russian social media claims, but a current map of reported outages Meanwhile
  8. Somebody posted a map from the 1840s showing Crimea/Odessa as a part of "Southern Russia", so somebody posted this nice little map of Ukraine in the 1640s. Beauplan Poland XVII map - General Map of Ukraine - Wikipedia
  9. I'm sure when Russians are picking up their coffee can's worth of fuel at the handful of gas stations still open, they'll be thinking "WE ARE PREVAILING IN THE RIGHTEOUS BATTLE" lol. Like I said, he can push that narrative all he wants, but fuel rationing and shortages as well as overall energy shortages make for a helluva counter-narrative that the Russian civilians can't ignore.
  10. Ukraine will receive Swedish 4th generation multi-role Gripen fighters for the first time, — Deputy Minister of Defense Havryliuk The Armed Forces of Ukraine will also soon receive additional F-16 aircraft and French Mirage jets. He added that under the new PURL program, the first deliveries have already arrived in Ukraine, but the volume and pace of assistance have decreased. Previously, under the Presidential Assistance Packages (PDA), we received aid from the US rhythmically and in larger volumes. Today's system, where European countries purchase weapons for us from the Americans, requires some time. The more links in the chain, the more time is lost.
  11. Russian propagandist Maksim Kalashnikov stated that Ukraine's attacks on oil refineries, gas pumping stations, and pipelines are no longer pinpoint actions, but a systematic campaign aimed at Russia's economic shattering. "I can state that the situation is deteriorating. The fuel crisis is developing now. The voices of those who say that they have to switch to rationed consumption using coupons, basically fuel cards, are becoming louder and louder," he said.
  12. Aggies will tell you it's not hazing. And it's not "Redass". But it's most likely bloody shits from non-stop bad water.
  13. Yeah, he even said this: The retired detective explained he had flown into Austin Monday morning. Unable to secure a 5 a.m. United Airlines flight "on a day's notice," Jones opted to use Southwest. "I wanted to be here because — actually, because of the four boys," he said, referring to the former suspects in the case, two of whom served prison time before their convictions were overturned. "I wanted to hear someone take responsibility for that."
  14. Yeah, they are ready to declare it an attack on Christianity, but the moment the LDS members speak up, it's like
  15. It’s “Trench Ass” which is kind of like trench foot, but worse.
  16. You should be able to stream it on the PBS App for free for a few weeks after it airs. That’s the way it was with Vietnam and the Country Music ones.
  17. Russian demographics are hard to figure out - supposedly around 140 million people, give or take 5 million. They certainly act like they are doing poorly given how hard they are trying to bring in manpower from outside of Russia (North Koreans, Indians, Chinese, Africans, etc.). Supposedly the Moscow metro area has around 20 million people. Certainly feasible given the size. If Ukraine continues to hit anything and everything that keeps Moscow going, whether it’s refineries or pipelines or pumping stations, as we head into the winter, well the talking heads on state TV are pumping out one narrative about how the war is going, but if people can’t get gas for their cars, can’t run their heaters, that is one helluva counter-narrative to what the government is saying. I don’t think we’ve ever seen a modern top-15 metro area lose their fuel supply, whether it’s for cars or for heating homes. I don’t want to get my hopes up, but that seems like the kind of stuff that gets people riled up.
  18. THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION, a new six-part, 12-hour documentary directed by Ken Burns, Sarah Botstein and David Schmidt examines how America’s founding turned the world upside-down. Premieres Sunday, November 16 at 8/7c.
  19. Are we sure he didn’t coach at UT?
  20. We were all 19 at some point.
  21. If we’ve already seen shortages in Moscow, and if they are attacking the pipelines and facilities that feed Moscow as well as Russia’s exports, are we that far out? At the current pace, they won’t be able to keep up with getting things back online in a timely manner.
  22. Didn't even know that was coming out, and I'm very intrigued. I'm never keen when writers decide they need to add one more novel to a series (and maybe he had this planned all along), but I like the premise.
  23. But sad as hell how Fogerty got fucked on his contract.
