Or, we could just rely on our traumatic memory from 9/11 and not care.

The only thing that really bothers me is that they put zero effort into rationally justifying their opinions. "Muh, my opinion, no matter how irrational and unfounded, is just as valid as yours!". That kind of dishonest deflection is trolling but I abhor dragging mods into it unless it is necessary. I can deal with trolling.

Given the hypothetical that Kamala and Donald are the only 2 available to vote for, who would you prefer win?

My condolences for your loss.

OP has shown their intentions are vengeance against Dems for perceived slights. Keep this agenda in mind if you read their BS articles.

When someone is so reprehensible, being an obvious traitor to her country for a few rubles, is put in their place I do find joy. Some people deserve much worse but insults are the only real recourse.

I only care about up-votes in this case because it objectively proves you wrong about discrediting which means your predictable burying your head in the sand patently won't work (Hence your spiral into salty hostility). Sorry friend, but beating your chest and crying "I'm right!" won't work when it's prefaced by a big red numeral "f you, you're wrong". :)

Coming back to check how soundly this statement was beaten into oblivion will forever make me smile.

Putin’s Shill Stein wants Nato disbanded, the US to give up their SC veto, and revoke weapons to help Ukraine defend itself while simultaneously forcing ‘peace’ (subjugation) negotiations with russia.

For those that don’t understand how the Electoral College + FPTP voting works, voting for her means helping donald become president due to the spoiler effect.

Ukraine said on Monday it had asked the United Nations and the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) to join humanitarian efforts in Russia's Kursk region following a cross-border incursion by Ukrainian forces.

Ukraine's army remains in the Kursk region more than a month after launching the assault, in which President Volodymyr Zelenskiy says Kyiv has taken control of about 100 settlements. Russia's Defence Ministry said on Monday its forces had regained control of two more villages.

"Ukraine is ready to facilitate their work and prove its adherence to international humanitarian law," (Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii) Sybiha said on X after visiting the Sumy region, from where Ukrainian forces launched the cross-borer attack.

How dare you politicize gun violence while a police officer is injured!

If only Democrats wouldn’t have been such jerks to people who didn’t believe in everything they did. Oh well.

Thanks for proving this is about retribution and not ideals. Pleased to meet the real you for once.

Half a year ago – and many political lifetimes before any of these events occurred – Trump averaged an approval rating of 47%. Today, that number is exactly the same. His approval has yet to go below 44% or above 49% over the past half year – essentially remaining within the margin of error. In other words, regardless of events, views of Trump – much like views of Harris and Biden – will likely remain largely unchanged.

This honestly baffles me. I just cannot comprehend his popularity. Felon, rapist, blasphemer, fraudster, laughingstock of the business world (complete idiot in general really), holds nothing but contempt for those that serve in uniform (except maybe the police but really just needs them so keeps his mouth shut), traitor, and admitted dictator...

Almost half the country loves him. WTF is wrong with people?

 

We've spent a lot of time in the past talking about systems that have been called 'game changers' or arguably overperformed in Ukraine, relative to either expectations, costs, or both.

Today, we look at some of the opposite - systems that may not be having the expected impact, and which might prompt some thinking in planners observing the Ukrainian experience.

Ukrainian president says Brasília-Beijing initiative shows “lack of respect” toward Kyiv’s position.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy accused Brazil of being pro-Russia in the Kremlin’s war on Ukraine and lambasted a joint peace proposal drawn up by Brasília and Beijing.

“The Chinese-Brazilian proposal is also destructive, it’s just a political statement,” Zelenskyy said during an interview with Brazilian news site Metrópoles on Wednesday evening.

Brazil and China signed a joint statement in May calling for peace talks involving both Russia and Ukraine. However, according to the Ukrainian president, the two countries consulted Moscow but not Kyiv.

“We are not stupid,” Zelenskyy said during the interview. “How can you offer ‘here is our initiative’ without asking anything from us?” He added, “This is a lack of respect toward Ukraine.”

Simply put, I'm looking to increase my overall vegetable intake and would like advice on best starter foods / recipes or recipe sources to help make the change more encouraging.

I distrust crowdsourced recipe websites (allrecipes for example) because 95% of the time the recipe is plain bad so, if I may be so bold, I would prefer 'reputable' sources.

Thanks in advance!

 

BRUSSELS, Sept 11 (Reuters) - Two Russian oligarchs and the country's National Settlement Depository company on Wednesday lost legal challenges against European Union sanctions imposed on them after Russia's 2022 invasion of Ukraine.

WASHINGTON, Sept 10 (Reuters) - The International Monetary Fund said on Tuesday it had reached a preliminary agreement with Ukraine that would give the war-torn country access to about $1.1 billion in financial assistance.
