To me, Russia has old ass nukes that might not even be operational.

Might not be functional doesn't lend to the kind of odds I'd wager the continuing survival of humanity on.
Just a few functional nukes can cause a lot of bad shit, and so I'd rather consider that a non-zero number of Russia's nukes work than let my hubris tell me none don't.

Do player characters that can be named count?

At least it's not screaming.

Of course, all a country has to do to join NATO is to have Biden say they are in NATO now.

Holy crap, the qanon shaman actually said something smart?

Perhaps MAGA turning on him and calling him Antifa was a (somewhat) life-changing experience?

President Joe Biden on Thursday told Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that the overall humanitarian situation in Gaza is unacceptable and warned Israel to take steps to address the crisis or face consequences, a stark statement from Israels staunchest ally.

The 30-minute conversation was the two leaders first phone call since an Israeli strike killed seven aid workers from the World Central Kitchen in Gaza. The killings have set off a furor inside the White House and Biden has been described as reaching a new level of frustration with Israels campaign.

President Biden emphasized that the strikes on humanitarian workers and the overall humanitarian situation are unacceptable, the White House said in a statement shortly after the call wrapped. He made clear that US policy with respect to Gaza will be determined by our assessment of Israels immediate action on these steps.

Biden also said Israel needed to announce and implement a series of specific, concrete, and measurable steps to address civilian harm, humanitarian suffering, and the safety of aid workers.

Biden is getting harder on Israel's lackadaisical attitude toward preventing civilian deaths.
Trump would be getting a hard-on whenever Israel kills innocents.

RoboCop is one of the best movies of all time.

I tend to give people the benefit of the doubt, but an argument this stupid has to be trolling.

It's a Feb 2024 account with 51 karma.
That alone says a lot more than I need to say.

Too bad the doctors couldn't do anything to her Dayum-Shedumm Syndrome.

Alas, Biden's not hard enough on Israel, and he's also not hard enough on Russia.
But he's still better than Trump.

Trump would encourage Israel to ramp up their genociding, throw Ukraine under the bus, and Mike Johnson NATO if or when Russia decides it's time to gobble up the Baltic states.
And then there's all that Project 2025 shit...

captialism is evil. Any where the idea that it brings properity to anyone but the wealth 1% needs to go away. Taiwan should be conquered so to issue a crushing defeat to capitalism

You should give away all of your money to people poorer than you instead.

So, in other words, Lukashenko wants to return Brest to Poland?

Because the ship hit the Key bridge and not the Tay bridge.

Why can the US send bombs to Israel who doesn't need them but cannot send bombs to Ukraine who desperately needs them?

Horses being atypically vocal.
Horse comes to a stop: Snort.
Horse gets scared: Repeated and long neighing.
Horse is seen for five seconds, standing still and doing literally nothing: Snorting, nickering, and neighing.

In general, a horse snorts if it needs to clear its nose, nickers to express delight, and a neigh is sort of a "hey, I am here" call to other horses (or people). A horse neigh immediately followed by a nicker is possibly the best thing you can hear from a horse, for that is the horse saying "I'm so very happy to see you!"
But you'd never hear that on TV, because I guess the stock audio libraries they pull their sounds from don't have it.

Probably a house cat or something that can fly

Yeah but you wouldn't automatically know how to fly.
Also, your vision will feel really messed up if you become a bird whose eyes are on the sides of their head.

I'd definitely try that.

The Godfather is great and deserves its best picture award, but The Godfather Part II is just kind of meh.
Michael's (further) descent into being an (even more of an) unscrupulous jerkass crime boss is nowhere near as fascinating as his turn from a naive goodyshoes to a ruthless mafia boss of Part I, and the interspersed mini-story of Don Corleone's ascent from a destitute immigrant to a mafia boss feels tacked on, undercooked, and inconsequental.

i remember this message board...........it was long ago so i forget when...........but anyhow there was one person there............for some reason they used a lot of ellipses.........for ending their sentence maybe........it was hard to tell........and they did it a lot.........and they never used paragraphs.......or capital letters.........which made their messages a chore to read if they became long..........and they always were super long.........so I always skipped reading their messages.........but I developed this partyl funny image in my mind..........whenever they had a lot of ellipsess..........they were literally were frozen..........like unable to think..........and with a vacant smile too.........

maybe not the whole plane but they can make a class above First Class, for the ultra elite who can afford $50k on a ticket, and they can have a man sized black box in case of emergency

Yes, that kind of a box will be intact after its 30 000 foot free fall comes to a sudden end.
That cannot be said for the human inside it, though.

San Andreas. Felt like a bit of a step down from Vice City at the time. I havent played the game for literal decades so maybe I'd feel differently about it now.

It was a pretty big map compared to the previous games, and unlike Vice City it didn't have loading zones (I might be misremembering that) but the map itself felt much more sparse, in particular, the south western quarter of it.

I too have a slightly hazy memory about it. I think the map was sort of cordoned off by applying a five-star rating on you if you ventured outside Los Santos before you had progressed through the story to "unlock" San Fierro.
Anyhow, I think the more the story progressed and more of the map became explorable, the less the map had to offer.
What I mean is that while Los Santos was explored through the missions and the assorted side content quite thoroughly, Las Venturas and the adjacent desert's missions center on the Venturas Strip and the old airfield.
I mean, did you know that Las Venturas has a golf course, or that there's a town northwest of the airfield?
Do you ever recall going to those places due to a mission, to find a collectible or a weapon, to get an rare or unique vehicle, or... going there for any reason at all?
Yeah, me neither.

Saints Row 3's Steelport is such a downgrade from SR2's Stillwater that it' almost painful to think about it.

Stillwater is very diverse with its locations, has unique pedestrians for almost every neighborhood, tiny cool details to find if you look for them, and many, many intricately detailed interior locations, such as an airport terminal, a sprawling cavern, and a giant underground mall!

Steelport consists of copy-and-paste neighborhoods with perhaps five unique interiors and a few little less copy-and-pastey places, and the exact same set of pedestrians everywhere. I cannot be sure it has more than ten pededestrian types in total for the entire city, when Stillwater could have that for just one neighborhood. I mean, it even had barber shop quartets singing acapella songs in some places!

Suffice to say, Stillwater is a living, breathing city that's fun to see and explore and has plenty to offer even outside the main and side missions, whereas Steelport is a location to traverse through and across as you progress through the game.

This is russia. We shouldn't assume all the shooters got out alive, just that Russia has found four people they are planning on putting the blame on.

Reminds me of that joke about MI6, CIA, and the KGB going into a forest to find a wolf.
The MI6 asks every forest critter where the wolf is, but comes out empty-handed, the CIA burns some trees and also comes with nothing, but the KGB returns with a beaten-up rabbit who confesses to being a wolf.

I'm sure that regardless of who and of what nationality and ethnicity the perpetrators of this terrorist attack are, Russia will find a reason to blame Ukraine or (any other country it wants to subjugate in the near future) for it.

my senior year of high school I had pneumonia, and the doctor prescribed me industrial strength cough syrup. Twas a vile concoction indeed!

I'm reminded of when I was a kid and came down with some kind of illness, and the medicine I had to take was, well... it was purple, had the consistency of a thick smoothie, but had an awful, synthetic and bitter taste that would make sugar-free juice concentrate feel like pure nectar.
To this day I cannot even guess what flavour it was trying to be.

Suppose that sometime within those ten years you go a tad mental and start regarding staring at a wall as entertaining? What then?

I remember that you could get killed by a car on the first level of RR.

I rememeber one of those skinny guys walking into the path of the truck and he was sent levitating toward the sky while a hundred blood spatters flew out of him like they were popcorn.

If the elections were legit, 1500 more people just outed themselves as anti-Putin and thus arrested before the vote can be held, and since it's not going to be legitimate, it just means another 1500 to be forcibly conscripted...

Don't know if you noticed, but these protesters are extremely unlikely to be arrested since they are proteesting in NYC.

Why would they fight each other when they could team up and together turn demons into harmless ducks that poop homing explosive eggs?

Just have to wait for a cargo door to blow open mid-flight and tear a huge hole in the fuselage for Boeing to learn.
