  • No argument here, there needs to be standardized age-based testing for drivers licenses, as well as freely accessible and highly available transport for senior citizens who have had their drivers licenses revoked.

    However, this was also a really bad idea from the start. Rollerblading across America, on its roads?!?!

    What are the the odds anyone could complete that task without being hit by a motor vehicle, especially a European not used to the car-centric nature of American roadways and traffic?

    I’m born and raised, and I am positive that I would at least be clipped by cars multiple times, but more than likely I’d eventually get pasted into a red smear.

    That shit sounds terrifying.





  • I have supported Ukraine from the start, including policies that provide them with offesnive weaponry, but the surprised Pikachu face of European leaders who choose to provide weapons to Ukraine, for use against Russia, and are now being attacked, is getting tiring.

    Yes, you’re in a war, whether your population is bought into it, or not.

    Providing material lethal aid is legitimate casus belli, that includes any attacks Russia might launch against America, or assist with, in response to their support of Ukraine e.g. targeting data for Iran.

    It is reasonable to not support Ukraine on the grounds that you don’t want to go to war with Russia, but if you are directly supporting them, stop crying about the blowback.

    Nut up or shut up.













  • That is delusional.

    The correct take away from this war, is that as it stands right now, today, Ukraine and Russia are the most advanced militaries in the world.

    That’s not to say that NATO armies lack the potential, or capacity, to supersede either those of those states, but as of today, they do not have it.

    Pete Hegseth just disbanded the lone drone focused brigade that America had in Europe, and Trump has spent 75%+ of America’s long range PGM’s and interceptors to help Israel in their genocidal campaigns in the middle east.

    And let’s not get started on mainland Europes severe lack of preparedness for war, absent perhaps Poland and a few Balkan mini-states.

    Remind me again, when was the last time an invasion of Russia went well for the invading army?
