I remember reading an anthropology report about rural dalit women. They live very hard, discriminated lives, but they still took joy in mocking the higher caste supervisors and being able to eat delicious pork.

maybe the avatar cycle works bidirectionally, and the current Avatar can communicate backwords in time like Eren Jaeger and give Aang a stroke if he refuses to bulldoze the fireraeli settlements like he should’ve.

I like skipping the question part and just telling them to do something.

“Corbyn’s new party will split the vote so Reform wins”

“You should call your MP and tell them how much ranked choice or another FPTP alternative means to you”

obviously it’s a waste of time to call them, but it should shut them up as it’s literally sole actual outlet for their complaint besides campaigning to make 3rd parties illegal.

similarly, any one who addresses any complaint to the “online left” should get no response except instructions in how to participate in an organ of the offline left.

“And the Next prime minister of the UK is… Andrew Tate!”

I’ll play it when they finish the fucking game.

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.

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%?

93% of the comments in thread is dunking in the random lib’s comment chain.

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.

Slava Wan Sui [I don’t know what they say in Israel]

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.

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.

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

JK Rowling thinking of a name for the Imperialist’s bomber base: Whiteman AFB

they made a lot of changes, including Paul’s badass speech where he dresses down in order the Emperor, The Spacers Guild, and the Bene Gesserit. Chani doesn’t ride off into the sunset either, but apparently Zendaya couldn’t stand working with Chalamet any longer. Paul doesn’t accept being the Messiah until midway through the duel with Feyd he has a vision where even if he dies the Fremen Jihad will still happen and Feyd will become Kwitsatz Haderach, so I thought he was just accepting, if it’s gonna happen anyway, he might as well tie his personal ambition to avenge his house to them along the way.
