Something I keep bringing up but never see in these open letters is: why are politicians exempt? Are there no child predators in the ruling class? I think the Epstein files have shown that these people need to be under surveillance just as much if not more as the people. Otherwise this just means: become a politician and you get immunity to having auch material.

Of course the argument is national security, blah. But somehow that trumps protecting children. If there are exemptions, it is not about the children.

Someone I know who really drank the Russian propaganda kool aid keeps insisting that NATO in fact keeps provoking Russia into a war.

No matter how badly they might be doing with boots on the ground, they are readily winning the propaganda war. It is disheartening to see.

To the surprise of absolutely no one. What a god damn farce this was. Cannot wait for the day the scattered remains of MAGA tries to do the same with his bloated corpse.

They know what they’re doing when it comes to funneling money into their own pockets, I agree here. But they’ll do it in such a hamfisted way, that it will bring down the entire house of cards, because they don’t understand or bother to understand the systems they’re pilfering. Though, this might very well be part of what they want to accomplish anyway.

If Trump takes over the FED, the US economy will go into an absolute tailspin and depression. The only reason inflation has been sort of brought back under control is the FED. Trump has no fucking clue what he’s doing on a monetary level and neither does any of his ghouls and cronies.

That is so damn cool.

Oh, I might actually look into taking them up on that offer. My community would probably be slightly active and it would be cute to have. Seems like a worthwhile thing to support :)

Though it appears to be more directed at large entities rather than little hobby-ists. Understandable of course.

Was it really just reddit? I seem to remeber that other sanctuaries bad mouthed them viciously as well because it is such a war for donations to keep their operations going, so they fight each other? Maybe that was also part of it. Either way, atrocious and a great loss.

Which trade would make someone with inside knowledge the most money if this goes through? Asking for a friend.

Ahja, klar. Weil unsere Kassenbeiträge irgendwie keine Selbstbeteiligung sind? Ne? Gut, dass wir drüber gesprochen haben.

Honestly, it can hardly be worse than any season of Discovery or Picard. I quite liked a good chunk of Strange New Worlds.

I think that’d be a pretty dangerous proposition by now. Maybe someone is doing it but is now too afraid to do the switcheroo.

Sehr gut.

Finally. I feel like this is the first time they shot any down. So far they only observed in any NATO country. Hope they keep shutting them down from now on.

Knew a guy who married someone who was like this. Months prior he was so proud and happy with his switch. I could see a light go out in him and it was so sad.

Microsoft is such a horrid company.

I know a few people who drink the right wing coolaid and hate renewables, but they also think China is a great place and outsmarting western democracies at every turn. Cognitive dissonance is a hell of a drug.

Good thing solar and other renewables are still going strong some placed at least.
