There’s a certain bay in Cuba that looks perfect for an amphibious landing…surely nothing can go wrong if the boys at the CIA get their best minds working on a plan.

Not shortsighted. Carbrained and corrupt. Also, the time to invest in European EV production has passed. China has got that market cornered now. German carmakers squandered any advantage they might have initially held on building bulky, expensive cars that the average person can’t even afford.

True but again, I’m not sure that the average person in the former colonies benefits from this as they should. Being exploited by your fellow countrymen or global corporations instead of a colonial power offers no inherent improvements, after all.

Wow, I’ve never read much theory but it seems I’ve come to the same conclusions as Michael Parenti just by using the old noggin. Thanks for the link.

Yes but not for the reason you think. While the USSR still existed, countries like mine still had to show that they were better than it. That they could offer higher quality of life and that capitalism could be the superior system not just for the elites but the average person as well. That impetus is gone now.

Just to bring everyone up to speed, the current interpretation of the 2nd Amendment is that the whole spiel about a militia is basically irrelevant. Source: Supreme Court decision in DC v. Heller (2008).

Love it or hate it, them’s the facts. That said, plenty of other decisions have been overturned at a later date. Like the one that made black people less than equal to whites in Dredd Scott v. Sanford or the endorsement of segregation in Plessy v. Ferguson. So things might change at some point.

Let me guess, it’s Edison and anything?

Es wurde ihnen regelrecht aberzogen, zu wissen was eine URL (oder ein FQDN) ist. Eine der großen Tragödien unserer Zeit.

Nun bringt es wenig, das den Leuten heute nachträglich wieder beibringen zu wollen, aber immerhin predige ich immer wenn ihr doch eh schon wisst, dass ihr zu web.de wollt, dann gebt das doch genau so in die Adressleiste ein.

Because nobody is stopping them.

KELCHSTÜTZEN.

Yes, that is literally what these things are called.

Capillary dilation of the so-called blush response? Fluctuation of the pupil. Involuntary dilation of the iris…

“Poop”?

Will make zero difference to ardent supporters of the death cult. They know. They’ve known for years.

They do. Not. Care.

If Mary was smart she would have used the Free AI Text Humanizer.

“You got me! Now what? 😉”

And *number.

I got really into Flopsy’s Dream and their debut album Pleasant Pudding last summer.

It’s the secondary project of Tom Davies, a Geoguessr YouTuber I’ve been following for years. Soft, laid-back rock that hit the spot just right for me.

You know gas prices are too high when you’ve clung to petroleum as an energy source for half a century too long (despite knowing about its deleterious effects and limited availability).

Down, boy.

Och, ich könnte schon auf den einen oder anderen Neoliberalen verzichten…
