Can someone help me translate the legalese? Are they trying to set up some sort of system of consequences or policies in response to what the US did to Maduro or something? Or what the US is threatening to do to ships that try to trade with Iran?

Had no idea there was a Dune MMO. Or people were still making those. I thought we decided WoW, Guild Wars 2, and FF XIV were the last MMO’s (and maybe that Conan one, which sounded interesting to me).

Ohhhhh. That’s a good way to do it. I forgot that was a thing.

So jealous. I want to play the board game after playing with a friend a couple times, but it was like $400 online.

I wonder how long before they start calling AOC and Bernie tankies. Have they done that yet?

Even if they do, the US is still on a timer due to the shut down of the Strait. They may have bought themselves time to re-arm, but they also just brought themselves closer to the time that prices continue to increase which will only decrease domestic appetite for war. I expect more burned down warehouses.

I think that is what it is for me, too. I wish I could get what other people get from these games because it really does sound so rewarding. But I have short spurts of playtime available to me.

But, DS games felt like the kind where you really have to be in the zone or rhythm of it, and by the time I warmed up to that point, I had to put the controller down and I had either none or barely any progress in the actual game.

I remember losing a bunch of souls in DS3 once and never playing again lol. The dying felt too punishing. Maybe one day I’ll play again, though. It just took so much time to collect all those 😭

Right but I think there’s a huge difference between no nuclear bomb and no enrichment.

What about Covid? Remember when they asked people to for for the economy? See? A worthy higher cause to die for indeed.

Military aggression from China? When have they done that since invading Vietnam? The South China Sea spats with Vietnam and Philippines, I guess?

I wouldn’t really call it military aggression while the US is doing their thing.

And Trump term one had some crazy corrupt pardons iirc. Not to mention the very undeserved Ford pardon of Nixon.

Pretty sure a lot of politicians, like US Congressmen especially, are like this. They’ll yell and rail at each other in public but then go to lunches and dinner and hang out with each other otherwise.

I mean, Biden ran how many times before he finally won?

This reminds me of that Keye and Peele sketch where their grand plan to rob a bank was to sneak in and work there, slowly gaining the money from paychecks given to them over decades.

“Fund their nuclear program” is an evil sounding way to say “make money”.

And btw, only a necessity because of the evil sanctions the US imposes on them.

That’s weird. This is the only possible system. You know communism doesn’t work, right? That’s right, no other alternatives. It’s this forever. Ooooonly this…

What would Iran do if the US puts their bases underground? They need to kick the US out of the gulf before they do that.

EDIT: I guess that doesn’t stop them from controlling the Strait at least.

It’s like trying to buy a ticket for the Titanic when the iceberg is within view.

Keeeeep going!!!
