Shit, even in America we know FIFA is corrupt.

This would be a lot funnier if SA wasn’t so common among the militaries of the world.

This is theater. Kaliningrad has a land border with Lithuania, but not with Russia. Invading from there would require a buildup that would be obvious and create logistics that would be insane. If Russia moves tanks to Kaliningrad, it’ll be through Lithuania.

Even the leader of Shin Bet called these people terrorists.

People watching Bat21 in the future are going to be so confused.

Yea, Communism is famous for being unable to compete in would class athletics. : /

I get the larger point, it’s just that this metaphor doesn’t quite support it.

This is bad. Lane’s argument is that freemium software is tore up from the floor up. You’d get the impression reading this summery that he was just bitching about one program his Boy Scout troop used.

That’s not true, the new versions carry targeting pods and they can use the camera on the hellfires to zoom in too. In fact, planned upgrade packages will continue to modernize the A-10 weapons systems until the eventual final version designated F-16.

Careful with those Irish peacekeepers:

The Germans were notorious for using on-the-nose naming conventions. For example a radio-homing system was called “Odin”, which the British correctly guessed was using one transmitter rather than the usual two because Odin only had one eye.

IDK the reason they didn’t deploy that thing, but it certainly wasn’t prudence or concern for pilot safety because the Me163 rocket plane was used.

I didn’t say it wasn’t American, I said it’s not American to eat it. No American has ever purchased, much less consumed grape nuts. They don’t even put the product in the boxes anymore. Just some led shot and asbestos to give it weight and they change out the box design every once in a while. They’ve been doing this since the 80s, it has to remain on the shelves to satisfy the terms of a demonic contract.

Before that, Grape Nuts was funded by the dentist lobby hoping to cash in on all those broken teeth. But nobody ever bought any and the dentists gave up.

If you look closely at the back of the chair you’ll see why even FOBITTS flying drones have a 25% casualty rate.

I’ve always wanted to love Iron Maiden, but I just can’t. It’s the lyrical delivery, like Dickinson invented the opposite of “flow”.

Obviously the band is GOAT when it comes to T-shirts.

Obviously this frat-boy shit is dumb, but if you had to figure out if someone was a real American or a spy, this would be an excellent way to do it.

Like if someone said “I eat musli” or “I like grape nuts” you could go ahead and shoot the spy.

“If I should die, think only this of me: that there’s some corner of a foreign field that is forever England,”

Even their poetry was imperial and expansionist. Oh well, at least this gives me some context for that Roger Waters song.

Or is this Lemmy being pro-war?

Supporting Ukraine’s violent resistance is not pro-war any more than shooting a robber in your home is pro-crime.

OK, the Utility is getting a loan against expected future payments by Microsoft. So, if all goes to plan, MICROSOFT IS PAYING FOR THIS!

Existential horror has calories?! Never mind potato chips, philosophy made me fat.
