Moe is starting the 'Uncle Moes' family americana restaurant and he bought an enormous flash fryer from a Navy auction that can "flash fry a buffalo in 45 seconds". Homer wants it now.

No, they would starve to death. But tbh most of the EU would collapse the moment russian troops enter poland anyways- only like three countries would ever die for Ukraine.

Admiral Sir Tony Radakin added that Russia "knows the response would be overwhelming, whether conventional or nuclear".

But he added that it showed the need for nuclear deterrence to be "kept strong and strengthened," warning that the world was entering a "third nuclear age" following the Cold War and subsequent period of disarmament.

These freaks are going to get us all killed.
