  1. https://www.politico.eu/article/germany-donald-trump-afd-greenland-nicolas-maduro-national-rally/ Too much of a Nazi jackass even for the Nazis
  2. Berg and Hedy Lamar are two of WWII's most interesting brains. I would have called Berg an autodidact like Lamar but really as a lawyer with some language skill he had the skillset to do espionage. She's the one who just whipped stuff up on the back of a napkin Carol Sturkas style.
  3. You will be most un-surprised and saddened at the reach of Murdoch's enterprises into the UK.
  4. You will be fine. Your views on the current mess will be welcome. You are not there to defend this mess. You'll learn a lot about the people you meet. A lot of racism in Europe exists for sure. The further east you go the more racist in general. The more they had US troops stationed there during the Cold War the less racism. Not true in every case of course. Many of the people in the East have traveled to the US now or had kids go to university, but go to rural Romania or places where things are just a layer of modernity painted over how things were in the 1930s and even further back and you'll see some very unprogressive views on things.
  5. Do you think the defense contractors who have so much at stake in the very necessary but very expensive F-35 program want this mess?
  6. Its not cost effective to have the average ICE applicant apply to join Armee because flying them up to Greenland costs so much more because of the tonnage.
  7. Adding more roster spots specifically for position players would create career opportunity and longevity for specialists such as all-hit no-field PH guy, defensive wizards, guys who had ample speed, or backup catchers who can help you spy on the Japanese Navy.
  8. I'm happy TJ Sabula has cut off further donations. He's gonna be more of a folk hero if he's not making bank off this.
  9. Gonna be a lot of tariffs then
  10. That's remarkable. 2015 Me would have exploded. Now, its "oh look at what the nazis are up to"
  11. Speaking of Virginia, the Gadsden license plate has to go. Just noticed in the parking lot that one of my buddies from grad school has one. I'm much less likely to call him now. I like that it tells you who is a knucklehead but I also don't like them flying their freak flag so conspicuously.
  12. This plus the story about the RW lunatics going after the orphan of Renee Good make me very angry.
  13. Christmas in Romania
  14. Cited on Bulwark today. Miller called this a Santonelli moment
  15. We aren't mad enough
  16. Yep and this won't change your opinion
  17. Kroney Kapitalism And of course its the worst non-politics human involved.
  18. Post by @maryfernando.bsky.social — Bluesky
  19. Troll trying to have that...not having it.
  20. can they do it on Christmas too?
  21. This might be the January version of your response. Trump definitely wanted Tiananmen Square in summer 2020 with the bible photo op with Milley during the BLM protests. I am hopeful that color revolution is possible. BTW, the communist regimes that still exist are always and every morning thinking about that list. The missing element in 1989 in Eastern Europe was Soviet desire to pull a Tiananmen Square that allowed the color revolutions. They wish to control any of the symptomatic elements including: religious fervor, ethnic separatism, economic pain.
