  1. Because Texas cares about children…if they’re unborn.
  2. Only we tell him he can blow himself up, but there’s no bomb. He just has to sit there in his own waste. Where do I sign up?
  3. Yes, but tell me less about the drugging and more about the whoring part. Also, South Austin right now:
  4. Your grandparents are from the 1840s?
  5. Real talk. This is the obvious play.
  6. So with that kind of debt, when does the machine just stop? Like collapse under the weight of that debt? At some point, people aren't getting paid and quit taking IOUs, right?
  7. Hey man, I have love for all of them. Like Baskin Robbins, I love all the flavors. There are no x's. If I had my druthers, they'd all be 1. But I can't eat all the flavors at once. Plus China has too many dudes to compete with anyhow, and Russia is just out of favor with me right now. Further, the Indian subcontinent holds a special place in young Chad's spiritual, ahem, awakening. And there aren't any Latin countries on the list, so if you're down with the brown, then India has to be pretty high up there.
  8. You know what you don't have to call out as being "cool"? Things that are cool.
  9. I would be happy to help out in any of those countries. 8 3 4 5 7 6 2 9 1 /username and all that
  10. Kinda like China and US soybeans!
  11. Taking the Black Sea Fleet out of the game is...something. That also means if you had some spare anti ship missiles laying around all those ships bottled up there would be sitting ducks.
  12. Chávez nationalized a bunch of companies and their holdings?
  13. Not in a "stand your ground" state.
  14. Are you saying it's existential for Russia, or its existential for Putin? I think those are two different things. There will always be a Russia, but they've shot themselves in the dick with this war. It will be a greatly diminished and downsized Russia if/when they lose this war. Ethnic groups and former republics will start pulling out/away because Russia can't stop them. For Putin, it's existential. He will be dead if he doesn't keep going. He may be if he does, but he certainly will be if he stops.
  15. This is what I'm saying. This right here is where Europe is.
  16. If Macron or Metz said, "we're taking the army to Ukraine tomorrow" they'd get massive pushback today. Maybe less so as the war goes on, but I still don't think the European populous has decided, "alright, we've had enough." I think they're still at, "Let's give the Ukrainians what we can." Those two things (1. boots on the ground vs. 2. supplying weapons for Ukraine to fight with) are still very far apart politically. I hope you're correct though, that there's a rising tide of anti-Russian sentiment and a pragmatic understanding that if it's going to be finished, it's up to Europe.
  17. The first part, that the admin is pro-Russia is absolutely true. It isn't that they "aren't for a minute." They always are for Russia. It's just that tossing a bone to Ukraine every so often gives them cover to say, "Well, we tried." Nah, they aren't really trying. Trying is sending HIMARS like Biden did. Tfg is not doing that. But I think there are enough career people in our government that are trying to look to a place post-orange asshole where we attempt to regain some trust and cooperation with our long time allies. Right now, our allies are turning away, as they must. But that won't always be the case (he said hopefully).
  18. Strategically this is true. It's probably better for everyone but Ukraine and Russia that the war drags on and Russia suffers as long as possible as greatly as possible. But I think this is just a side effect. I don't think there's a government in Europe that could stand the backlash of the populous if they said, "We are going to end this war today. We're going to do it by throwing the entirety of our military might against Russia via Ukraine." That is what would end the war quickly. But the European people do not have the stomach for that at this point. Plus you'd inevitably get the pushback of "Russia could go nuclear!" No they wouldn't, for the simple reason that Putin wants to live. Ultimately, if he gets pushed out of Ukraine, as long as he can still beat up on his own people, he'll be cowed, but still around. For sure Europe wouldn't push for regime change. No one wants to see a European army trying to follow Napoleon or Hitler's boot tracks across Russia.
