Jesus those comments are awful.

Probably the Jackson estate sold the film rights to the filmmakers and later realized that they legally would have been liable for that.

Iirc, the bullet didn’t graze his ear. The bullet hit the podium or something and some splinters from that got his ear.

Agreed. By the time our different ideologies become relevant, we’ve already made incredible progress. Let’s concentrate on getting to that point first.

He’s crossed a line that cannot be uncrossed.

You say that like it’s news but that’s his whole thing. It’s the reason he’s popular.

Shucks that was clever

Just say you made a French variation of it.

I’m pretty sure the astronauts signed up knowing the risks. They’re also extremely trained for this mission which is why they were able to resolve it. They aren’t just along for the ride.

Why the animosity?

Is there a verb in there?

During my bad trip I just thought I shit and pissed all over myself and tried to sleep on the kitchen floor since it would be easier to clean than the sofa.

It sounds like he may have had a stomach bug or gotten food poisoning from the event he was at. Diarrhea and vomiting can cause dehydration but you’ll probably be fine the next day. I don’t think this is real news.

This is a good thing. I don’t like how cozy SA and US have been for a long time. Trump is so stupid he accidentally did something good.

It’s officially called the A-10 Thunderbolt. “Warthog” is a nickname service members gave it. Similar to the F-16 Fighting Falcon getting nicknamed the “Viper”.

You don’t but it can help with packaging since you don’t need a shaft from the rack to the wheel (which is on different sides depending on region). It also means you can have different steering ratios for different situations. You can have a fast ratio while parking and a slow one on the highway. If you have automated driving, the wheel doesn’t need to turn when the car turns. Although I think all cars with any kind of autonomous driving still turn the wheel.

Does this mean that Iran haven’t mined the straight? Or did the ship just get lucky?

Haha where’s this image from? Hahaha like where could I find others?

TBH, I’m not against this. For Europe, NATO is a defense alliance mostly concerned with Russian aggression. For the US, NATO is a tool of imperialism. Trump said in this article that the reason he’s considering leaving is that NATO countries didn’t assist in the Iran war. The implication is that NATO is for supporting US interests or the US doesn’t honor their obligations.

I think that a European alliance shouldn’t be led by a non-european power. I think that the US should reduce its defense commitments abroad and lean on the fact that the US is one of the most easily defended countries on earth. The problem is that Trump doesn’t want to pull out of NATO to lower US defense spending. He just wants to re-write the world order to put himself on top.

One big problem here is that there isn’t a current mechanism for a country to leave NATO. It would weaken the credibility of the alliance if a country could back out whenever they felt like it. There are 2 ways this could be solved:

1. Amend the treaty so that the other countries could kick out an existing member rather than allow the US to withdraw.
2. Create a new NATO with everything the same except the US is no longer part of it.

I think either of these would open up a lot of chaos because countries would want to seize the opportunity to remove other problematic members like Hungary or Turkey. It could undermine the unity and credibility of the alliance.

To a lot of people, that doesn’t matter. Many believe that parents have the right to raise their kid however they want. To these people, the “voluntary” is only referring to the parents.
