Yes, this is a war of choice.
No, there is no equivalency here.

If you think Iran and the United States are equivalent your mind is poisoned.
I detest Trump and will dance on his grave but this is insane.

We claimed Navalny had sabotaged all the security cameras as part of a CIA op to overthrow Kremlin by killing my highest profile replacement. So I am the real victim. I accept your sympathy.

Although if true it would mean Russian intelligence are a bunch of clowns.

You should watch the episode of No Reservations where Tony talks with Nemtsov.

I also like β€œbring back conference geographic sense” at 3, which would detonate ESPN as an additional benefit

We may need a multinational Luddite movement.
We may need to actually destroy AI for planetary protection.

AI:

Bill was ahead of me on this, but I also did not realize it was a 13hr old skeet.

Yes, but I get to choose the tacos and beer.

Like:
3 tacos from my favorite spot & I’m good for 6hrs but I could easily house 24 πŸ””s in 24hrs.

I’m not making it through 2 dozen Old Rasputins, ever, but I’m reasonably sure I have already done that with Bud Lights in less time.

Never thought I’d appreciate an 8.4oz. beer, but wonders never cease.
This is pretty cool!

Shame what happened to Lender’s. I used to go to the one in Orange, CT as a kid and loved it.
