Why not? If you falsely identified it as a barracks why would you discover it was school within 40 minutes?

But your anchor is the median household income is around 83,000.

If you are both this number, you are 'doing well' and should think about ways to give back.

And your taxes should probably go up.

I know it doesn't feel that way, but there it is.

All of this ⏬️ panic and speculation. Nothing changed in the Strait and people spent billions. Can it get bad? Yes! But we have extremely limited knowledge of Irans current capabilities. My guess, they have more than we want but less than needed.

3 parties jap about total closure of Hormuz. Iran and russia for obvious reasons. Take what they have said before about anything and make your conclusion. Its third you should watch out for, doomers, panic trolls and paid assets. These do more more harm that 3000 ballistic

I know thats not the point and Elon losing polls and being sad is funny but what's especially funny is that 11,8% would be god tier add campgain. 3% is solid. Just another thing he has actually no clue about

Dutch intel says russians. Having a general op, last huzzah and to undermine Signal as they try to rein in different messaging apps

As explained, Signal safty is robust, this is phising so between the screen and chair

We are aware of recent reports regarding targeted phishing attacks that have resulted in account takeovers of some Signal users, including government officials and journalists. We take this very seriously. 1/7

"Iran Claims to Strike Tanker for Running Strait of Hormuz Blockade"

Unfortunately, some news agencies are following this trend of believing the IRGC. The tanker Prima is off the coast of Mozambique and no where near the Persian Gulf or Strait of Hormuz.

Untrue. We use 100 million barrels per say. We lack 20 million. So using 400 million would be have been 3 weeks. A lot can happen in 3h let alone weeks

russia has changed its approach to recruiting foreigners into the russian army to participate in the war against Ukraine. Recruitment is now carried out on a systematic basis! #neocolonialism

More on the race. With best excuse recorded for tank nerds, ever!

"British team protested that result and declared the Americans the winner instead, on the grounds that the AMX-10 does not meet the definition of a tank, being a wheeled, and not tracked, vehicle"

Iranian Shahed-136 drones shot down by a UAE AH-64D Apache crew using the 30 mm M230 cannon.

In Ukraine, we also used helicopters extensively against Shaheds. Later, Russian forces added air-to-air missile launchers to Shaheds to target helicopters. Keep in mind.
