Nice argument. unfortunately, I've already drawn you as the meagre, liquid filled Brand X, and myself as the copiously tomato abundant 74·40
it's saying they need to smash israel to free palestine. Or maybe the lib has a different resolution pictured.
I'll play it when they finish the fucking game.
yeah, is there some law about energy drinks there? I also tried dongpeng, and it tasted like cough syrup, it even came with a plastic dosing cup on the lid like Nyquil bottles have.

they don't require it, but for shock resistance and compactness, The US and UK use 93-97% enrichment. Russian and Indian military vessels use 40-50%, Chinese and French military vessels use <10%. Russian nuclear icebreakers and floating power plants use 20-40%.
we have an ideology which is incompatible with and hostile to liberalism, and their socialization on the internet has left them unable to deal with that fact in a healthy way. they usually love dunking on ideological opponents, often by pretending to have conversations with news headlines in an aloof and dismissive tone. (you'll notice Reddit has a surprisingly frequent number of front page stories where the headline simply a quote or declaration from an adversary like Putin, usually abridged or summarized in such a way to suggest weakness, hypocrisy, or frustration). unfortunately, they're out of their depth when it comes beyond flat earthers, creationists, and anti-vax. On reddit, they manage to fill the gap with moderation power and downvotes. here, they just seethe. it's hard to believe, but these people have such poor coping skills, I literally see them routinely invent quotes that don't exist in the source or imagine historical events on the spot which they will then assert happened without investigation.
he is hacking the suspension bridge effect.

How was Iran able to plausibly claim, and the IAEA sort of went along with, that they were building a nuclear energy industry and not a weapon program when they were enriching uranium to 60% and most civil reactors are less than 5% and reactors like CANDU can go as low as .7%?
The Widest ship in the World, the Ramform Titan. Belongs to a category of ships known as Seismic Acquisition Vessels, which scan the sea bed for oil drilling locations

why does New York have ranked choice voting for the primary but not the actual election?
What country should Americans who violate their visas in other countries be deported to?
It's likely Iran will now have months or years to reinforce their defense.
I don't know how they should address their internal security problems. Stricter movement controls, firewalls, surveillance, social welfare, affirmative action, federalization, seems like a lot to accomplish in a short time
For air defenses, they'll likely need to look to China since Russia is occupied with Ukranian drones. For China, wouldn't the value of being able to test their equipment (Their personnel as well if they're discreet) to gain experience at running an air defense network against western 5th gen planes be extremely valuable, even more than the cost of the batteries they send? US retaliation would be sending more Patriots and PrSM to Taiwan?
Did you think something had happened? Rookie mistake, nothing ever does.
I don't have any direct experience, but the CHUWI CoreBook X 14 gets pretty good reviews, and they make even cheaper laptops than that with similar memory and processor, but cheaper chassis and 16:9 screens.
"Diary of a madman" is a short story from 1918 by Chinese author Lu Xun. It describes a man who falls ill and begins to read Confucian texts obsessively until, to his horror, he can see the words "Eat People" written between the lines. It's a timeless classic about the horror that comes from awakening to an unjust culture, realizing how all the pillars of your society have licensed it, and even your friends and neighbors are complicit in supporting that which everyone knows to be self-evidently wrong (Cannibalism, which the publisher notes reveal is not entirely a delusional hallucination or a metaphor, but an actual social ill taking place then)
The narrator continues to unravel as he next realizes his own complicity within soceity, but as foretold in the prologue, ends optimistically, with him resolving to struggle to build a fair soceity for future generations and finally recovering from his illness and leaving his village to serve as an official.
I bet you look ugly, and if we listen to you, we'll need to listen to even uglier people down the road.

It's called harm reduction when you pick the lesser evil in an election. it's called campism when you support a 3rd world country defending itself from the West.
have liberals still not realized their two most frequent critiques are contradictory?
Cuba had operational nukes on their soil, but they were still forced to remove them following confrontation with the US, so it's less of a guarantee than some think.
None the less, I think Russia could've done a swap where North Korea provides nukes to Iran, and Russia provides an equal number of SL/ICBMs to Korea.
Finally saw the episode with Pickle Rick. Why did this become the quote for people to loathe?
The episode was pretty funny. "Pickle Rick" is a mild example of "L0l Randumz Xd" humor, because the reaction of literally every other character is that it's underwhelming and unfunny. the rest of the episode has good jokes, references, super fluid action and gore.
Edit: I don't want this on the front page while US-Iran stuff is going down.
yes, it's staggering how he was able to condense it down to a mere 87 minutes, but remember this was released only 4.5 months after October 7th, so he had less ground he needed to cover.
The genres of liberal protest signs
Post your favorite liberal arts&craft cliches. I'll start with the one I'm partial to.
Without fail, some PMC or boring white guy will rock up with a sign like:
"this is literally the last thing I want to be doing. I am an endless well of lethargy, a monument to near-total apathy. Alas, the incompetence of those in charge has forced even my refined detachment into the streets. So here I stand, spiritually degraded, holding this sign like some kind of activist, a word that, until now, I associated with some kind of transient tempter of the youth. Can we hurry this up? every second spent protesting is a grotesque violation of my sacred right to passive despair, but alas, here we are, because apparently, even my cynicism has limits. Enjoy my grudging presence, you exhausting idealists."
she wants to frame it as a minefield topic that her audience would be overly critical of and exaggerate her positions. But lots of creators have made videos already. Shaun, for example, made a perfectly succinct video that garnered no controversy. the simplest question is what takes would she be compelled to include in her video that Shaun did not?
Well, No controversy from his community. the contrapoints subreddit on the other handhad some things to say
