I saw this item pass by on the local news the other day, including an interview with Versluys, and I don’t recall any of them mentioning the exports bound for Ukraine. Looking at the article from a few days back, that doesn’t mention it either. Just saying, there’s a good chance the protesters did not intend to impact Ukraine.

Sure there is hope! Admitting you have a problem is the first step in tackling that problem!

Welcome to the club 😀

Dude, Walter, Donnie and the Jesus from The Big Lebowski. Whenever I see Turturro play any other role, he’s so bland and normal.

Not really sure why, but the title reminded me of this Frankie Boyle joke:

American foreign policy is horrendous 'cause not only will America come to your country and kill all your people, but what’s worse, I think, is that they’ll come back 20 years later and make a movie about how killing your people made their soldiers feel sad.

Wow never knew it could be so powerful. That’s like a cluster bomb of fire.

Thanks for that explanation! I also worked at a movie theater, we did have a couple fires that started at the popcorn machine, now I know why :)

Wouldn’t you still risk sparks falling, possibly igniting dried grass?

Not sure if that is actually possible from the few sparks that fall, just a question.

socialism

noun

so·​cial·​ism ˈsō-shə-ˌli-zəm

any of various egalitarian economic and political theories or movements advocating collective or governmental ownership and administration of the means of production and distribution of goods

Not anyone. Billionaires will not be helped by this.

Spoiler: they won’t

So that was what I’m advocating, sitting around and waiting? I’d have to ask you again to copy/paste that bit…

You do realize It’s not binary, right?, It’s not a choice between voting for democrats or sitting around waiting.

Am I? Please copy/paste that bit.

You’re advocating a reset without a change to the underlying system. Expecting a different outcome is insanity.

All that does is make a whole new generation of politicians become attached to their privileges.

wow nice, I had no idea!

The ruling is seen by some as a blow to Germany’s fight against right-wing extremism, although for others it could be proof of the country’s high standards of free speech.

Yes, nothing says free speech like repressing pro-Palestinian demonstrators under vague security rationales.

European leaders are still stuck on X, says enough about them too.

I was fresh awake and happy to be spoiled for choice 😀. The answer is, was, and always will be fries.

Same here! And on a slow day when I finally managed to get through the whole Subscribed feed, there’s still the All feed to tackle. I really like that system.
