Have seen euromaidanpress articles before, I think they’re legit if not a bit sensationalist and obviously very pro-Ukraine.
And of course Russia blames a smoooooking incident. There’s this one Russian guy who just smokes everywhere he shouldn’t. Munition storages, aviation bases, flagship Moskva…
You’re probably in good company then, but should still strive to do a lot better.
He’s not leaving politics, he’s at most changing vector. From being visible, to working more in the shadows.
Thanks, saved me having to write that. There is a lot of valid criticism women can level against “the modern man”, depending on the culture they live in. But this is not it. I have never heard of a guy claiming to be of higher status and cussing off a woman who rejected him. Maybe we sometimes think we’re higher status than a woman or whatever, but then again we do that with other men too. It’s a human thing, not a gender thing. Women most definitely categorize men into lower and higher strata subconsciously too, if nothing else.
The breaks may or may not actually stop the car - Tesla
Oh okay. Let’s get back to hating on Europe and why they don’t want to buy our strong and beautiful cars.
That’s correct. In school the most important thing you can possibly learn is to learn. Information is abundant and easily accessible, the school, university or even research labs are no longer gatekeepers of information. But knowing HOW to find resources, HOW to filter it, HOW to use it, HOW to sit your ass down and work with information in a meaningful way is a specialized and rare skill.
Sorry, like always, when I write “you” I mean the ethereal concept of a human reader, not you personally. Pretty sure many here use tiktok though, made a comment about it the other day how adults dancing for kids on there a creepy, and if the downdoot R*ddit system here is any indicator, people did NOT like that one bit lmao.
And I can’t exactly throw away my phone because of work.
I hear that all the time. Does your work DEMAND of you to doom scroll TikTok while on the shitter? Or just that you are reachable via phone and/or text? If it’s the latter a Nokia phone does the job and does it better too.
But at least AI slop is easy as shit to see
For you, and for now.
Worse, they want not just Ukraine but Europe to actively lose. The destruction of the EU is the goal.
Reliance on AI obliterates your ability to solve problems. We have an extreme competency crisis right now mostly because especially young people find themselves utterly helpless without their pocket rectangle and easily overwhelmed. It also convinces you algorithmic search results and AI responses curated by companies are “reality”. Turning people trusting these technologies into sedated and borderline mindless consumer cattle.

Russia and China are stepping up their demoralization efforts.
After disrupting and perhaps permanently crippling the US by helping to get Trump elected, the next step is of course to now support the other side so we do the funny civil war happening. Especially China is very interested in this for obvious reasons. Social media is getting swamped again with AI slop and bots en masse if the recent Lemmy posts are any indicator. Throw away your mobile phone. Barring that, delete all social media you participate in for more than 10 minutes a day. It does not “connect” you with anyone, it destroys you!
Not quite, the DNC was still ahead. But democrats didn’t want the optics of a last-minute open primary where the candidates rip into each other trying to get the nomination on live TV. Plus Kamala herself seemed to move quickly and wanted the nomination before anyone had a chance to get a word in.
Fun fact, we didn’t use to need that. Which is why millennials typically don’t use /s outside Reddit. 90’s and early 2000s forum culture required everyone to use common sense, a concept now entirely ethereal to zoomers. Back in my day…
Societies change, as often for the worse as they do for the better. It also depends what you consider “normal”. For many boomers growing up in the 50’s and 60’s this is fairly normal. We’ve used to shoot students protesting an actual invasion against Vietnam.
And then there are still a lot of immigrants here who fled really bad dictatorial shit holes. They look at headlines going “ICE deported 300 people this week” and go “It’s not even a thousand and they were not gunned down in the streets and their families exterminated, what are you complaining about?”. Perspective.
Fight it however you can, or don’t.
He’s perfectly safe. All he did was take a deal for money from the official US government. Another administration can cancel the deal, but no one will seek retribution from him.
I guess if the people of Greenland accept a measly 10k soon to be worthless USD in exchange to join a dying empire, they deserve to be part of that empire. Maybe Trump is actually smart and this is a hidden IQ test.
There is a shipping route opening up that would enable Asian-Europen-American trade via a about 2/3 shorter route than currently possible. It would make any route through the Suez canals or around Africa pointless. This might not sound important right now, but it would fundamentally change the fortunes of countries and reshape the world.

And…then?
Greenland still belongs to Denmark even if you give 99999999 gazillion to each Greenlander
I don’t think anyone in Greenland is dumb enough to sell out their country for 10k to then live in a country where you will pay out of your ass in taxes, handing those 10k right back to the IRS in 5 years tops.
Greenlanders would have to call themselves “Americans” henceforth, which is considered an insult and lower class of civilization world-wide.
Ohhhh good job Bernie! I’m sure Johnson will get RIGHT on it! The House you lost will surely vote for that. And the Senate you lost will surely confirm it. And president Musk will absolutely sign it!
Ah, here is step one. The “Mutter der Nation” medal for women having 5+ children.
