I have a buddy with whom I grew up whose entire family is in the CIA and he's told me that his clan basically treats Yemen like their personal playground

While I'm sure they do good work and their particular mission somewhat excuses it, turns out most of their budget is wages which makes it a no for me.

LOL.

Go to the supermarket, buy some food, and then throw it really hard.

Almost all, and all charities with any form of reach, have paid employees. Try running any organization where everyone's a volunteer. People stop showing up sooner or later.

I think what might help is if we send some of our best right-wing grifters over there to tell them to work harder and make the right decisions. That'll set them on the right path to a full belly.

Del taco is pretty decent if youre just looking for a quick bite to eat. They should look up the closest one on google maps and swing by the drive thru

Their chili cheese fries have no reason to be as good as they are

the situation in afghanistan is a direct consequence of a brutal american foreign policy that seems more determined to deny the taliban "a win" than address the material condition of the people living in a region that the us managed for two decades. it has been depressing to see this crisis be ignored and then forgotten by most people and for us congressional leaders to actively impede efforts to understand the consequences of its actions

the nyt published a good overview of the circumstances facing people here and the new yorker has a solid piece here

I dont think anyone is trying to deny that the taliban won, i think it is more like "they won so why is it our responsibility still?"
