peanut- posted:https://www.telegraph.co.uk/business/2022/02/24/greater-russia-now-full-spectrum-commodity-superpower-less-vulnerable/ Financial Times is also making its Ukraine reports free to read for now (though I'm not sure if you have to sign in with a free account first). Haven't read any yet as I'm too sleepy but FT usually reasonably balanced on matters.

I don't want to downplay it but the cornershop acquired porn license fell through due to being untenable and even the Onlyfans/Mastercard thing also became somewhat untenable and I get the feeling that equal amounts of gently caress all will be done to have something working or meaningful before it's mothballed a month before deployment anyway. Not that it shouldn't be bollocked every step on the way.

Yeah but lots of people aren't supported in their shitposting by a Patreon or whatever. It's especially dangerous considering liberals tendency to want to speak to a manager. It'll not be podcasts getting hosed, I'll be you or me getting reported to our bosses for mocking libs for poo poo takes, or openly holding radical views. Of course they can't sack you for those views but lol at the idea most employers won't be able to find some reason to justify shitcanning you.

crispix posted:if Russia invaded GB the tories would charge people for guns I was thinking along these lines while I was on holiday. During the pandemic, you could go somewhere (shop, hairdresser, etc) and pay £2 for a mask. Lisbon airport last week - pack of 10 for 70c. If the Govt had committed to making facemasks equally cheap to get, there'd have been better compliance with mask-wearing across the board. But no, they couldn't be arsed.

I still want one of those bidet seats that makes the water just the right temperature and pressure for cleansing. And yeah blue ticks transparently want a return to the days when they could all massage one anothers egos without the proles interrupting. These two points are not intended to be related.

One of my work colleagues has a wife from Ukraine. He's having a hard time getting her over here because he didn't live with her in the Ukraine and there's no fast way of getting her over here.

Tell him to try seeing if she can go to Ireland? https://www.rte.ie/news/ireland/2022/0225/1282977-visa-waiver-ukraine/ The Visa requirements in Ireland have been waved. It's not perfect but it might be easier for your work college to get her to Ireland and go there, then get her into England.

Borrovan posted:I mean at this point the outcome is a foregone conclusion so actually yeah the rational choice is the one that doesn't involve thousands of people dying I know this was a few pages back and meant somewhat tongue in cheek, and I'm quoting borrovan because they're a generally a good poster who seems like a sound person rather than the surprisingly high number of posters who expressed similar sentiments, but this really annoyed me. I mean, the fundamental premise here is that russia invading doesn't involve thousands of people dying needlessly. Which, loving hell

I always really liked this one. (I seem to remember it was the theme tune for some series I watched fairly recently (last year or so)) There's one I'm trying to get now but I never have the rotting smart phone on with the shazam working when it's on. Need to see if there's a windows app now. Fun fact: Pat Boone got "disfellowshipped" from his church on account of his metal covers album (No More Mr Nice Guy). And apparently he's good friends with Alice Cooper. Jaeluni Asjil fucked around with this message at 01:23 on Feb 26, 2022 |
