Critics have condemned such “Soviet” tactics as counterproductive. But Tim Willasey-Wilsey, a lecturer in defence and security at King’s College London, said: “The liberals in us all want to say this is self-defeating. On the other hand, I was speaking with a Ukrainian friend whose husband has been on the front line since 2022 and she said it was disgraceful for fighting-age men to hide from conscription.
There it is again that funny feeling
"They wanted to turn their brains off, and go nerd out [...] and have some fun."
"why can't people just fucking nerd out about stupid fun sci-fi shit?"
"and have a stupid nerdy time."
Beyond anything political, I think they'd be an incredibly annoying person to be around. What does nerd out even mean?????????????????? Are they attempting to turn to jello as if they're taking recreational sedatives? What positive experiences do they have in their lives that makes them feel like they turn their brain off and, in response, receive a good time from others? Do I socialize wrong?
I remember in a Blowback episode George HW Bush was the Darth Vader of privatization (of the military).
Underfund thing -> it underperforms -> people get mad -> private option sounds good -> private option sells your organs
Counterpoint: I told him to pass me a soda. Little did I know that it was ✨spooky soda✨

Shout out to the cop who just kept pointing their gun at him as he fell to the ground. Just in case he was going to jump back up as a fast zombie or something.

Oh holy shit! What did the Yemeni people who did the attack want, just so I know? Have the US and it's allies been doing anything in the region that might arouse their ire? Maybe there's something they could cease doing in order to bring about more harmony in the world.
sighs to be fair, this is 1984 coded and a major 🚩YIKES 🚩
China YTA and UR FIRED! XD
It counts as negative theory. You owe us a chapter of State and Revolution
I get this visceral disgust when people feel the need to maintain their heterosexuality like it's a coveted state of being. Like it has to be some accomplishment. Like any exploration of other sexualities or any cessation of desire has changed you as a person. You don't even have to like every girl if you don't want to, man. What a dumb game to play for no gain. When I play a dumb game for no gain, I get to do submission wrestling and it's a lot of fun. When you play a dumb game for no gain, you tell me that I'm touching sweaty dudes in BJJ.
I hope this post is enshrined on my heterosexuality record and follows me to the pearly gates where I have to explain to Peter why I don't give a fuck about how straight I am.
From what I understand, Trump actually got chilled by the attempt, right? Like he actually had to stop and think about the world and his place in it for the first time in his life. I don't know, I'm sorry to anthropomorphize a republican. I haven't really been following. But he's supposedly talented at reading the room, right?
