In Trump’s video about the American soldiers who have died you can see the exact moment where he stops reading the script. It’s his ‘that’s the way it is…’ line delivered with a weird riff and half smirk. A man who has always thought dead soldiers are losers who get nothing for dying.

Two scientists look at a monitor attached to a large apparatus consisting of pipes, tanks, vessels and hoses. The first scientist says "I don't get it. The reaction is running perfectly, but we can't account for 7% of the heat." The other says "Have you Asked the Professor?" The first replies "We're not supposed To disturb him when He's in his office." On the other side of the apparatus, one of the pipes goes through a wall into another room where it warms the water for a hot tub in which the professor relaxes.

Mene "hrvatenje" ne moti, če hočejo ljudje biti Hrvati in Hrvatice je to povem legitimna izbira. No, za slovenske superpatriote je vseeno nekoliko nenavadna.
Me pa moti koketiranje z radikalnim nacionalizmom in fašistoidnimi tipi vseh sort. Cf. Donald Trump, Viktor Orbán...
Niti ne! Ante Starčević je bil vseeno antiklerikalni radikalec, JJ et co in njihove simpatije do avtoritarne vlade in vladarjev bi mu šli kvečjemu na živce. ;)

As I scroll through my timeline this morning, I'm guessing that His Dementedness, the Great Satan, did not catch fire and self-combust on the podium. I must say I am disappointed, I was really hoping for a happy ending to his story.
