Russia is resorting to even more meat waves now as they’ve started to run out of mothballed equipment to press back into service. That’s why you see more insane things like motorcycle assaults in daylight against fortified position and singletons running around on the battlefield.
Russia still might win but the loss of life is going to be beyond belief. But apparently they are ok with it.
Wow, rock really cratered. I don’t have a good sociocultural explanation for why that’s the case, though.
Anyone who votes for Trump in 2024 is a fucking idiot. You know what he is, what he’s done and that he is a doddering old Alzheimer’s case who will still do a coup after an unsuccessful one three years prior.
Here’s my anti-endorsement: Go fuck yourself. Since I can’t slap you through the computer screen, do that to yourself too.
Ha! That makes me like him even more.
When you’re already with your dream woman, other options ring hollow and unappealing even if they throw themselves at you.
Try again next life, ladies. 😉
AITA for telling my vegan friend I don’t want to come over for Thanksgiving Dinner?
Because of a girl I was dating, I did a vegetarian (not vegan) Thanksgiving one year. The crucial point was we didn’t try to make anything that mimicked another food. And it helped that she was (like me) a good cook. She asked me if I’d be willing to try it and I think was surprised I said yes. (She would’ve been ok if I’d said no.) But shit, I’ll try anything that won’t wind up with me in prison, a buncha people dead or Putin serving me a polonium pie.
I don’t remember what all we made but every bit of it was great. I didn’t miss the meat at all, though I’d not want to do a veggie Thanksgiving every year. I do recall we made some sort of nutty stuffing that was quite delectable.
You can do a lot with mushrooms and nuts, for sure.
Speak for yourself, buddy. “Spooktacular” is a year-round conversational staple for me.
This pizza I ordered from a pizza place literally 2 minutes away.
Caveat: the pizza place is two minutes away if you drive at 10,000mph. That acceleration and decel is a real bitch.
If Harris wins, will the Supreme Court steal the election for Trump?
This is the most likely coup path and the only plausible one as Trump will not have the support of the military at all (usually necessary for a coup).
Also, he’s old and tired so that makes doing the coup more of a challenge. But if he does pull it off, the Supreme Court is the way it’ll go down.
The sins of the 90s: Questioning a puzzling claim about mass surveillance.
It’s amazing how dumb supposedly smart people can be. Those comments, good lord. There’s more clowns than a circus convention.
Tech people are pure fucking idiots.
The web is losing. Badly. But a comeback is possible.
Cheap light transformed civilization.
Calling Trump a Fascist Is Well Overdue. Why Did It Take So Long?
Chatbots remind us that natural conversation is artificial too. Indeed. In the sense that most would mean it, nearly all my conversations are artificial (as compared to a baseline human).
Learning to trust Trump’s generals: There’s a reason why his military men now call him a fascist.
Democrats must finally reckon with the political danger of concentrations of wealth and power.
On immigration, what Americans want is democratic control.
Hospitals adopt error-prone AI transcription tools despite warnings.
There could be principled objections to Harris and her policies. Could be. I haven’t really seen that, though. Most of what I’ve witnessed has just been misogyny and racism.
Personally, I think she’s slightly better than Obama. Which is not great. But is like a ray of heavenly light compared to Trump and Vance. And since Bezos decided to bend the knee to Trump, no way in hell I’m voting for that ticket (as if I needed another reason to not vote for a senile declining old rapist).
I hope either to die calmly in my sleep or surrounded by vast piles of my defeated enemies.
Either one is okie-dokie with me.
Our equipment mostly rocks the mic like a vandal, no matter what some leftist doofbags claim. Yeah, sure, the T-64 is a great tank if you like your whole army dying in like 0.02 seconds when hit with an RPG or a brisk wind.
If there had been a shooting war during the Cold War, we would’ve tore up the USSR’s shit like a cat with roll of toilet paper. And unfortunately we might yet get that chance in 2030 or so.
