Biden isn’t quite as bad as the soundbites make him seem, but he is slowing down (physically and mentally) in his old age and was just generally an extremely uninspiring candidate. Trump, if anything is worse than you portray. He’s way more senile than Biden, in addition to the blatant corruption, rulebreaking, childishness, and being horrifically and openly racist and sexist. He has literally quoted Hitler! No decent and reasonable person who is paying the slightest attention to what he says and does would think he is remotely qualified for any position of authority. The fact that he is polling roughly evenly with an extremely qualified and intelligent person like Kamala Harris is indeed an absolute clownshow.

That does seem to be the story of this war, doesn’t it? I bet all the major militaries are looking at stuff like this and investing in more drones for themselves, too.

Wait, fallout 4 didn’t do the ending slideshow? That’s an iconic part of the series! I’m so glad I stopped buying Bethesda games.

Unfortunately for the residents of Moscow, all Russian AA weapons are currently in Ukraine.

It seems that we have progressed to the “find out” stage. I wonder if this will have any measurable effect on Putin’s support, though. Russians seem like heavy sleepers.

This is NOT a purity spiral

Right, because that’s exactly what people who are not in a purity spiral say.

The YouTube channel Throttle House did a road trip with the cybertruck and they found that a lot of people actually were curious about it.

For all it’s flaws, you can’t deny it looks different from all the other cars around, and most people aren’t online enough to have an opinion about Musk and his bullshit, so to them it’s just an interesting looking car.

Except that they love policies that only benefit rich people who don’t care about them.

It’s not hypocrisy when you understand that “waste” is conservative for “helps the poor and/or minorities”

As the article says, there are typically a few cases a year in the US. It’s actually endemic in the wild. No need to panic just from a case or two popping up.

No it isn’t. The Democrats haven’t had their convention yet.

What the fuck? Why would you do that!?

Both have the same ultimate cause, as well: politicians safe at home demanding immediate results no matter what it costs.

Of course they saw it coming, that’s why they banned abortion in the first place. It’s all about control.

All South Korean male citizens are required to perform 18-21 months of military service.

While this is true, the fact that war would be a bad idea doesn’t necessarily mean it won’t happen. People make bad decisions all the time.

If politicians want people to have more children, maybe they could do something to make having kids less ruinously-expensive.

There is no red line. Netanyahu could literally kill and eat a Palestinian baby on live TV and nothing would change.

it does seem excessively lurid to suggest, without direct evidence, that they have been raped in captivity for the past several months

But you’re just going to do it anyway?

Israel DOESN’T dictate American domestic policy, evangelical Christians do. They believe that the existence of the state of Israel is a necessary step to bring about the Second Coming of Jesus, so they’re all in and absolutely nothing can sway them.
