  1. I usually tell them that it’s more important for us to discuss our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ than talk about finances. “You have an accent, are you saved?”
  2. ….. but what a glorious 24 hours it was. Years from now I will smile when thinking about that day while eating government cheese.
  3. “Science” is derived from an old Indo-European word that meant, “to do your own research online”.
  4. And that same British photographer went on to worldwide fame for photographing Bigfoot
  5. 3 putt is a gentleman. I’m positive he won’t make jokes when he sees your shrunken balls.
  6. Rubio will probably tell us that, while Trump did have to promise to blow Putin at the next G-8, he held firm on not having to stroke his balls. Advantage Alpha Trump.
  7. Kobylarczyk. Notice that the Latino man did not say, “Shut up, you stupid Polack”! Which may be why he is still employed. Karen 💇 haircut noted.
  8. Drifter, thank you for protecting us all from the looming recession. Your sacrifice is appreciated.

    Getting old sucks

    Or as his neighbors call him, “The Super-Spreader!”
  11. And like that, 16k in value from yesterday gone.
  12. Yup. i’ve been looking at all kinds of YouTube videos from content preparers that seek to show how every modern woman is incapable of being a good wife, and the opposing content saying that all men are idiot, bro children who fail to attract women. I was literally stunned by both the volume of gender war videos, and by the positions taken by both sides. It was like watching two different MAGA factions ignoring each other’s valid points while insisting that only they possess the truth because they’ve done their own research. Both sides insist that almost 100% of the opposite side are side are not worth living with. We are soon going to take a demographic hit from people in their 20s and 30s refusing to get married because they can’t stand the other gender. The sadder thing is I think that both sides are largely correct. Society is now made up by selfish, stupid, arrogant, mouthy non-empathetic people with no level of self introspection. Which sort of also explains our current political situation.
  13. I support your proposition, but predict that your plan to have YouTube posters voluntarily demonetized their platforms in that fashion will fail. We don’t need to watch it, quite correctly, but they don’t need to write it down efficiently when they earn coin from the clicks.
  14. Oh, I totally agree. Hence my caveat about only if there was a high chance of the shooter disappearing after the shoot-down. I just like the psychological impact of every time Russia thinks it can limit the drone problem, whatever solution it comes up with results in failure and crashed planes and dead orcs.
  15. Excellent point. I guess I assumed that because Ukraine is using drones to defend territory in the front lines as a main defensive tactic to limit Ukrainian personnel losses, that this was near the front. It makes a bunch of sense to conclude they will be using the private planes to track down drones heading for refineries and other places. Still, there are probably partisans and special ops people who could bring down some planes if this was happening in the middle of the boonies away from quick Russian military reaction assets and they had a good idea of target acquisition geography and timing.
  16. Appealing to Georgia fans’ intelligence is like appealing to Putin‘s humanity. I mean, you can do it, but the future negative result is already ordained.
  17. Just like Ukrainian snipers with 50 Cal single shot sniper rifles will have fun aiming for engine cowlings and pilot side windows. Let the games begin.
  18. The existence of private military companies under the control of potentially hostile-in-future oligarchs is surely a threat to Putin. This looks like it will put control of those private military companies under the MOD. Putin has to have total control of the military to survive, and the scare he got from Prigozhin is probably still on his mind as things continue to unravel. Also, Russia has been forcing men to sign up as reservists. Russian law says these people cannot be called up and sent to the special military operation without a declaration of war. Those men were willing to sign up because it meant they would not be sent to Ukraine under the current law. So now they are changing the law that prevents the use of reservists on the front-lines in Ukraine as more meat assault fodder, which is one hell of a bait and switch.
