Busby should probably not be considered a reliable source

That's not to defend Israel's actions in Gaza. They still killed all those people and destroyed their homes, regardless of the weapon they used to do it

Even the actual literal Nazis got things right once. They armed Ethiopia against Italy's invasion. They did it for shitty reasons, but I'm still in favour of sending guns away from Nazis and to the people fighting against being colonised. If Hitler himself can end up on the right side of history on the odd occasion, so can Cheney.

Exercise Formosa

Well this certainly wasn't the "Chinese troops in Taiwan" headline that I worried I might read. Apparently there's a Formosa in Brazil and it's not just the old name for Taiwan

Islands have been done separately from the mainland when they're part of the same country on this map. Look at Canada, where Vancouver Island and Newfoundland end up far away from the rest of Canada

Is it a worse look than what Tyson did to any of his real opponents because of the history of male violence against women, or is there something else you're getting at? And is whether or not it looks good what should be the driving force being decision making in sports?

I'm not exactly a regular, but I've been writing a bunch of stuff and picking up my language classes again. Which game are you modding?
