That reminds me of this comic strip…

There’s a similar thing in the US but many landlords don’t accept it.

That is how war generally works. Until a peace is negotiated you would like the other side to surrender or die. Yeah Putin started it, but that doesn’t change the nature of war.

In those same tests when they let the F-35 engage at range it won most of the time. It’s literally the close in dogfight part that it doesn’t win at and that’s why the F-22 is supposed to do that for it. The F-35 without an F-22 mission profile is to sneak into radar range, trigger AIM 174s from the super hornets behind it to clear enemy air assets and then get into range for it’s air to ground payload; drop that and light the afterburner to go home. At no point is it envisioned willingly dogfighting.

State level actors are capable of providing those updates themselves… That update is the mythical off switch they talked about and it’s absolutely sensational bunk.

Yeah. I didn’t like that. I don’t like Putin but misinfo isn’t going to help.

The coffee grounds.

For anyone not reading the article he is specifically talking about any troops Ukraine has left in the Kursk region as there has been a general pullback into Ukraine from Kursk in the last few days. This is not about the wider peace negotiations.

Dude they’re rounding up undesirables, snorting ketamine, planning wars of expansion, and destroying democratic institutions. How many more fucking boxes do you need checked?

Ooo thank you.

It doesn’t take someone with 8 -12 years of university to know that giving actual fascists a platform is harmful.

Because of course it is. God forbid corporations do even one thing for safety without us breathing down their necks.

You…

You mean that in a good way right?

RIGHT!?!

Putin doesn’t have the entirety of the two provinces he’s claiming. He wants the entirety of the two provinces for a couple reasons. First it gives him a domestic win. Second it screws the Ukrainian defensive lines. Right now they are situated in a way that Russia has to fight through towns that Ukraine can fortify to make them costly. If they use the province borders, they’re relatively arbitrary and Ukraine’s line of defense has to be set up further back, where they can force Russia into towns again. This favors Russia because in a couple years when they finish rebuilding their military they can just take the next area and tell everyone they get to keep that in the next ceasefire.

Possible, and harmless to Russia since Biden’s administration sanctioned pretty much everything they could already. I will not be surprised though if Trump announces he’s relaxing sanctions based on a promise from Putin to consider future negotiations.

Waiting breathlessly for Trump’s announcement that Zelensky is unwilling to talk peace and Putin is a victim…

YSK - You can find a Tesla protest near you by making a sign and looking for the closest Tesla Service Center/Dealer…

We never had allies, we barely knew those countries, they might have gotten coffee for us at some point?

If you guys do that take pictures and send them to America so we can put them in political ads.

Honestly yeah, if a paperwork fuck up can get you detained for more than 24 hours there’s something seriously wrong and travelling there is dangerous for the border police alone.
