How many other Western, from what is supposed to be a democracy, leaders have gushed about falling in love with a dictator? Actually I’m sort of curious if there is more than one. Trump may have been working the flute but Kim sure played the pied piper better.
Then left you in the same situation afterwards.
Assuming this meant pirated tapes (unsure if that msg was for digital or not) but even digital has been going on longer than streaming services were available. Its like people forgot about napster and kazaa. Though to be fair they may not have been around for them but it’s not like older people had no options when the Internet was newer.
I’m not American but live next door. I really hope that spray on hair douche gets his comeuppance. Dude blurted out plenary authority on tv then stood there silent and still but blinking like there were technical issues so they could edit it.
The amount he says during his word salads of speeches is amazing. I don’t think I’ve heard anyone say so many words without a tiny bit of relevance to the previous sentance, or the previous comma if typing it out. Truly if you want someone to speak without saying anything meaningful, he’s your guy.
Okay I’ll correct, I don’t think I’ve heard anyone not under some supervised care say so much irrelevant to what they were saying one sentence ago. Though I guess technically he is supervised but not in my intended meaning.
Course the Trump supporters will ignore the fact he said it 400 times or so during a deposition cause he’s obviously innocent. Apparently that was only in 2022 but I’m sure they just missed that in their news.
Yeah just wait until the US becomes the country other democracies like western nations are installing their own government in. That’ll be an interesting time. So far the Trump administration has shown how inept they are from top to bottom, just feather his balls and hell roll over like a suckling pig.
Or they get under control of a power hungry nation like say Russia, imagine them with the power of the US military behind them?
Neither option great. Fucking assholes, the lot of them.
Let us citizens be in control. Not all communist per say but way more citizens than fat cats in government to appease. Hense why the government should be for the people not their own grifting schemes.
Huh never realized that for gas but makes sense. Parents had a gas stove that I hated turning it on as a teen cause if it didn’t light I felt like I had to wait some time, don’t recall thinking of the fan even then which would have been the obvious solution but then I wouldn’t be sure the gas hasn’t accumulated cause well no Google back then to check.
Usually gave it like 4 clicks (of the spark trying to light it) if not lit then wait a bit. I sort of wish I understood gasses better, even if I knew high school chemistry well at the time. Never had a gas one since I’ve been adult to think of that part.
My work computer had an update yesterday, logged in and my usual browser wasn’t the default. Have seen it a few times. So while I usually agree if it is my usual I change it back to that. I hate windows programs asking to be my default, I know what I want, if it’s you you’ll know otherwise piss off.
So many windows notifications lately for the stupidest crap. I already set it up how I liked now stop bugging me so I can write code. Also if I wanted backups, to set up a Microsoft account my windows install will be the first to know. Otherwise piss off.
Not productive when I get distracted and annoyed.
Do they get to the crescendo? I don’t know much about music but trying my hand and took some course and there was a comment ‘listen to this one it sounds like it’s building the entire song’ but the song never gets there. Bit melancholy/sad type tones chord progression but seems like it’s epic in its sound. Course the epic part may be due to the composer knowing his stuff but the idea was a chord progression that kept building to nowhere.
So curious of that sounds about right for your description. I forget the name but when the instructor put a link I was like oh yeah that song, like lots of movies or probably commercials used similar for the emotion. À
Just be cool to know another name if that sounds right is all. Enjoy finding more examples to compare and notice what makes the sound (even if I can’t reproduce it)
Unfortunately but least you have a good mindset while things are pearshaped in their current way. It feels like that lately even in Canada (for world situation). Like who the hell lets a leader stay in after starting a war and losing it? Seriously, that’s balls. Let alone losing all soft power the country had. You’d almost think he was working for a select few…
I hope things improve one day, but world order is definitely not the same now. Perhaps for the better but things were calmer before is all.
Heh like a bit from Dune, people got too soft, ended up the fremen were enough to let Paul be emperor and change everything by becoming ruler. The philosophy from that story really shows for it anyways. Power doesn’t necessarily corrupt, it attracts those who are corruptable to do what they want. Huh, I just typed it differently and understood what the author meant. Neat cause it’s way more accurate. Also hitchhikers guide to the galaxy, no one that wants to be president should ever be given the position. Same idea, different stories but works still.
Yeah that’s for countries that don’t respect democracy, not… Oh nevermind.
I’m not sure the last time I saw the phrase international observers offhand (I am sure it’s happened but just missed it) but they are definitely needed in that country. They seem to be degrading themselves to third world, in function if not by cold war meaning.
There’s an argument about the pandemic team he disbanded could have recognized COVID early enough so it’d barely be a blip or known in our memories. So perhaps still, even if he didn’t try. He just wanted more money for his personal things, plus recind anything Obama did. Like the Iran agreement. Not to mention all the soft power US used to have and acting like the US can still do everything, and not cause a worldwide fuel issue. Slightly different metrics but I think he ranks up there myself.
Okay maybe he didn’t set out to get people killed but even worse he doesn’t care he did, that’s gotta be close in being awful. Let alone with any decision he makes is to benefit himself, never the people. I’m not sure how often a powerful empire has had a dude in charge to break everything but I don’t know much history. Least hell be known as one of the crazy leaders, but we know he just wants all the money and whatever it takes.
I believe that perspective works still.
They make non aluminum antiperspirants (least according to the package, I’m using Dove ones currently) that boast all day protection. Since I switched my shirts don’t get stained in the arm pits anymore.
Also found trimming armpit hair helped too.
Wait he’s in a newer one with Harry Potter? Fuck yes. I actually haven’t seen Radcliffe in much else except Extras which he was hilarious in (probably mid Harry Potter movies), actually one of my favourite bits from that show.
I appreciate you telling me, I’ll have to check it out. Being old I miss a lot of random things now but would never want to miss a good laugh which Weird Al never disappointed with.
My first thought, have enjoyed him since the UHF movie(always enjoyed those spoof type ones and it was/is fantastic). He always seemed like a great person from anything I’ve read, I feel bad that I probably missed my one time seeing him in concert recently.
Got my brain on first read, I bet he’d be amused how it looks at a quick glance.
Funny it doesn’t smell druish.
Only the lucky ones. Actually I dunno, Im mostly familiar with the spiral types, lived in one for awhile but haven’t checked out many others yet. Well once had a good look at Andromeda and it was a looker for sure, but nowadays I go to sleep to early
Yeah but perhaps the rest of us countries get a breather, like a trade war with Canada. What the fuck did we do?
Mean I agree they need a political enema, which I think we said the same thing.
