No pity. If they don’t go, that means some one else has to do it. It’s the ultimate in selfishness.

This is not Viet Nam. They are being invaded. If they don’t believe in their country they should give up their citizenship.

My Gen Z son says these are Alphas and he doesn’t want to be associated with them.

At the point, pretty much all of the Black Sea Fleet is “submarines”.

This is truth. The old adage about throwing your vote away isn’t exaggeration, or even opinion. In a First Past the Post election, is just math. And math doesn’t care about anyone’s sense of moral righteousness.

I suppose that depends on your point of view.

I think it’s important to understand that, no matter how big these numbers get, Russia will not stop. Putin will sacrifice every man, woman, and child in both counties to maintain his fantasy of “winning” this war. The only thing that will stop him will be the inability to continue.

Turning office space into living space is often mentioned in discussions like this. It should be noted that converting the space is not as easy as it seems. In particular, moving the plumbing infrastructure to support individual bathrooms and kitchens is extremely challenging and it makes some projects impracticable.

You don’t think that Lemmy and Reddit can both fail to meet expectations?

This is clearly by design.

Yeah, that’s the official name, but I’ll stick to the APC designation. It carries troops. It’s armored. It does not have a tank-level main gun. It’s an armored personnel carrier. A good one, but an APC, none the less.

For anyone who doesn’t get the significance, these crazy cats took out a modern main battle tank with an armored personnel carrier. That’s like if the Bismark was sunk by the Titanic.

Yeah, I got bored at 360 hours. If course, I’d be bored with virtually everything after 360 hours, but some people must have higher expectations.

Depending on who you talk to, it actually might. Even this phrase, a sensible request for freedom on its face, is absolutely a call for the dissolution of Israel to some who use it. Finding an innocent in the conflict, outside of a maternity ward, is mighty challenging.

I imagine they’re planning to purge Austin.

I just finished a 430 hour run in this game. It’s not the masterpiece we were all hoping for, but it’s not the failure I keep reading about, either. It’s fine. Some folks just seem to enjoy being salty.

I’m done for now, but I’ll be back after the CK and DLC drop. I had fun.

Damn, that’s scary. I’m next door, in purple-ish Georgia, surrounded by cray-cray Florida, Alabama, & S. Carolina. And now Tennessee had lost the plot, too. I’m looking hard for some source of optimism.

People will do batshit crazy shit if they think God wants them to.

I think the only people supposing the CCP these days are actual Chinese people. A distaste for China seems to be the sole unifying topic in the west.

I’m actually willing to accept that Hawley 's masculinity is under threat. I feel pretty good about mine, tho.
