If they’ll cheat with you they’ll cheat on you.

On the bright side, you don’t have to wait to shit on him. His diaper is soiled more than half of the time already. POOTUS.

I assure you, the recent differences are more than just talk.

I heard someone defederated from Hexbear, but I didn’t think it was us.

You’re a fucking joke if you think the last two months is representative of the US over the past 75 years.

A couple issues.

The Signal chat didn’t show that anyone wanted Europe dead. Agree or not, it showed that the administration wants Europe to be responsible for their own military interests (As though the US received nothing from being the security for the West over the past 75 years.)

If they want to see Europe destroyed, those receipts have to come from elsewhere.

Secondly, helping Ukraine is in everyone’s interest except for Trump and the GOP. Stopping the stupid fucking tariffs is in America’s interests. Trump succumbing to his age is in America’s interests.

Don’t confuse America’s interests with those of the people who want to destroy and weaken America. Other than that, the point is correct. Europe needs to be much more active in Ukraine, even if the US administration may object.

We can’t. It’d make it too easy to discover how arbitrary “9 to 5” is.

It was legitimately funny, when it was still a joke. The memes were good. There was no way that idiot was going to be a serious contender. It was all in good fun.

At least until someone would say, “you know this is just a joke, right?” Any kind of self-awareness was banned within seconds. Now I don’t know if you’re familiar with volunteer moderators, but it’s pretty rare that they catch that kind of volume 24 hours a day within seconds.

I fully believe there were state-level troll farms operated by a hostile foreign government moderating that subreddit.

… and now they’re applying that to the entire site.

That sounds like the_donald applied to the whole site.

Yes. It didn’t help that we spent 50 years saying not to discuss politics or religion.

But the current situation was largely a coordinated propaganda effort, likely combined with blackmail on politicians. Possibly caused by the hacked emails. Both the DNC and RNC were hacked. Only the DNC side was released.

Absolutely. I was specifically referring to sanctions, which are unlikely anyway, but possible.

Europe needs to take real action. You want Ukraine to actually win? Go make it happen. You can do it.

Putin is not going to use nukes to win Ukraine. Kowtowing encourages nuclear proliferation.

America, even this America, does not want war with Europe. They may sabre rattle, but nothing outside of sanctions will come of it. And if all goes reasonably, the US should hopefully be an ally again in four years.

You need to work on your military. Ukraine is the place to do that.

The US is in this mess because none of the good guys would take bold action. EU, you’re the good guys now. Will you do anything?

Seems to be only California Teslas for now.

Yes, typically. I don’t know if that trumps “the bank has to give you your money when you ask for your money.”

Well, inside the sand thinking.

This is referring to after you know the person, already have their number, etc. You still text before every call.

I think it’s somewhat age gated. But I love it. A phone call out of nowhere means I need to drop everything and give you my full attention, and I have to make that decision within 20 seconds or it’s too late.

A text first gives me so many more options. Especially if I like to prepare, for example, stepping out of the crowded office. Or parking the car. (Which still works even if I don’t read texts until parked.)

And if you’re on the jury, you never say the words “jury nullification”. It technically isn’t allowed, and you can be removed from the jury.

But if you just think there’s reasonable doubt, then nothing can be done.

He wanted plausible deniability. He didn’t get there.

Bullshit. We supported Europe similarly to how we’ve been supporting Ukraine.

We didn’t have boots on the ground, but we did everything short of that. It’s why Pearl Harbor happened.
