I feel so bad for these children. I know there’s a good chance they’ll grow up to be freaks themselves, but still, talk about being dealt a bad hand

All-time best Felix bit

And never mind the fact that Russia, even in its currently degraded state, is objectively less evil than the United States

I have to know if/how any of them justified saying that, those are next-level brainworms

I’m sure anyone who’s even halfway familiar with this scenario has seen this map before, but I’m including it anyway because it hammers home how absurd the notion is that the rest of the Allies stood a chance against the Soviets. Even without taking the actual combat readiness of these units into account, the numerical disparity is simply obscene, as is the disparity of experience (recall that 8 of every 10 German casualties in this war were inflicted by Soviet troops; the scope and intensity of fighting on the Eastern Front is simply beyond the experience of the American and British armies, at that or at any point.) My off the cuff assertion is that this would’ve ended with mass American casualties and a rapid loss of political will, rendering superior American manufacturing capacity moot.

The other day I was coming onto the freeway where the entrance lane merges with the right lane, and before I could merge a truck that was travelling in that lane forced me onto the shoulder and almost ran my ass into the retaining wall. Had plenty of time and space to shift left before I got in the lane, and I know for damn sure they were able to see me.

People drive like absolute sociopaths in California.

Yeah, I’ve never seen anybody else talking or complaining about yet. Very peculiar, and I haven’t got a clue what could be up with my phone specifically that could be causing that.

Android, and as far as I know, everything’s up to date. It’s really bizarre.

Does the site just straight up not work on mobile for anyone else? I can only sign in when using an adblock browser, I can’t filter posts or communities, search doesn’t work, and hitting next keeps me on the same page.

(if I recall correctly, wikipedia even has a page just for Tibetan torture methods)

Would you happen to have a link handy? A cursory google search yields nothing but the expected anti-Maoist trash

It’s always a head trip being reminded that the engines from Thomas the Tank Engine are all real

I might be going to see Santa Fe 3751 next month, and I’m so jazzed about it

Jesus Christ, how embarrassing. This kind of behavior is so baffling to me. I’ve been verging on poor for a good bit of my life, and I’ve earned money by working with my hands more often than not (and thank fucking god I’m not doing that anymore for the foreseeable future.) If I had Tim Pool’s money, nobody would ever see my happy ass again.

At any rate, yeah, I never could get a grip on it. Never got a handle on roller blades either. Got pretty good with four-wheelers though lol

I’ve always been crap at sports in general, even things that I should’ve logically been good at, like wrestling (I’m a large lad.) I don’t know if it’s the ADHD or what, but not being able to get good at something right away often leads me to quit from sheer embarrassment.

That all sounds utterly fascinating, and also cause for me to once again bemoan my utter lack of coordination and balance

I never could get a grip on skateboarding as a kid. Alas

Exactly, no accountability, no citation, no critical analysis, not even basic questions like “How in shit’s name would the MOD be able to derive anything like an accurate casualty projection in this situation.”

Like I get that articles like these aren’t meant for people who tend to actually think about what they’re reading, but goddamn, it’s just gossamer thin.

Adding to Ukraine’s woes are Russia’s huge advantage in manpower and its willingness to accept staggering losses in return for capturing small objectives

Do we even have reliable casualty numbers for the Russians (i.e. that don’t come from Ukrainian reports) or is this just the usual ‘Russians have no regard for human life and rely on human wave tactics’ trope

Edit:

The offensive has also come at a huge cost to Moscow, with an estimated 70,000 troops lost in two months, according to the U.K. Defense Ministry which posted the projection last month on X

That explains that I guess

Hirbawi is fantastic, I bought mine in the same pattern ages ago, and it comes with me on every desert camping trip I take (back when I wasn’t too lazy to do that)

Imagine being so invested in your own make-believe auctoritas that you’re willing to traumatize a young girl falling asleep on a boring ass school field trip (something that has definitely never happened before and isn’t a trope in hundreds of cartoons)

I’ve got a buddy who spent some time in southern Africa, and his Afrikaans impression always cracks me up. He says Afrikaaner men especially sound like angry vikings talking with mouthfuls of shit

Which, you know, grand, it’s about time these things were made less maddeningly frustrating. But this should be a footnote in a grand restructuring plan of…basically everything, at this point, or we die. That they’re pushing this as its own thing, and that this article suggests it as a compelling reason to vote Democrat lest the Republicans kill it in its crib, is beyond insane.
