  1. South Korea's political life is much healthier than ours,
  2. Does Musk suggest that his Nazi's corporate structure be reduced to zero value through bombing and invasion?
  3. First time reposting a mastodon post. If anyone wants to re-litigate World War 2 and what happened to Germany and Japan as a result thereof. From my optic: it appears that every one of the Nazi companies value was reduced to zero and control was taken over by the conquering allies. For the Japanese it was a different matter but they all benefited from Allied occupation and reorganization.
  4. Biden should have done some of those things of course. He was trying to keep things from escalating but now...we are in different territory entirely.
  5. Randy Smith couldn't sell girl scout cookies if they were laced with heroin to an narcanon meeting.
  6. Chafin seems really shopworn.
  7. Dave Dombrowski was my speed. I think Scott Harris might be the superior GM if we can keep him though.
  8. He was really reading the Mack Bolan book Double Crossfire and musing about the effectiveness of the Fairbairn Sykes dagger vs. the Gerber Mk1.
  9. Be cool if this worked.
  10. He was a bow-tie wearer, was he not. That's a choice. You can either be a novelist of antebellum romance or a male stripper if you affect that look.
  11. Yes, the only thing keeping mad King Donald in check are the Nukes that would be launched from a submarine we helped them build.
  12. Luigi’d
  13. How is trump not facing 25th amendment for this…the rubber stamp GOP of course.
  14. plus France and UK have already given nuclear guarantees to Canada under NATO article 5.
  15. "Regime press" That rings pretty damn hollow these days.
  16. Ditto. Most interesting part is that in the "trial" of Beria scene you can see a lot of very slavic looking faces in that melee. I think they brought in people who had actually experienced the horrors first hand to add to the gravity of that.
  17. Reading Jung Chang and Jon Halliday's very interesting Mao biography for the past few months. Boy, that Mao guy was a bastard. Hitler obviously front and center was evil and there are 4-5 Holocaust movies every Oscar season to tell us how. Stalin's evil has only really ever been captured in a few pieces of media. Death of Stalin is so very good. But Mao...that guy...the paranoia, the emperor has no clothes aspects, the hangers on being worse and more venal, its just a lot. He killed more than both Stalin and Hitler so there is that.
  18. and still speaking of them Just Jack: "Congress doesn't have time to negotiate a bipartisan budget to run the government. They do have time to investigate anything bugging their oligarch overlords. www.yahoo.com/news/johnson..." — Bluesky
  19. speaking of the asshole
  20. Actually...this particular matter would be a very good thesis for historiography. Hmmm.
