Homeless Friend posted:i read da op and the last bad quote is weird to pick out. too much irreverence? too much sounding like conspiracy nut? but its basically factually true, its the exact incentive structure that happened in the US were people tried to maximize economic activity prior to covid restrictions. in short, kidnapping ftw That's some incredibly thin ice you're venturing out onto, comrade.

I like listening to this guy about shipping mainly because I haven't looked into if he is a horrible person or not https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7X42cN6Yj88 But here is a video about the black sea grain initiative

Nix Panicus posted:My current D&D game revolves around the rights of artificially constructed people and the responsibilities of their creators with the underlying question of do all people deserve a cultural homeland at any cost. Its pretty good. do the artificial people have any gold or magic items

I watched like the first 20 minutes of the new Top Gun but it was worse than Morbius. Was the place they were gonna bomb Russia? Subjecting a plane load of people to Morbius is the real war crime IMO.

https://www.irishtimes.com/opinion/2022/11/03/ukraine-risks-being-locked-into-endless-war-in-bid-for-perfect-peace/quote:Ordinary Ukrainians on the front lines are divided on a ceasefire and negotiations. My Ukrainian colleague Karina Korostelina and I surveyed the attitudes of both residents and displaced persons in three Ukrainian cities close to the southeast battlefields this summer. Almost half agreed it was imperative to seek a ceasefire to stop Russians killing Ukraine’s young men. Slightly more supported negotiations with Russia on a complete ceasefire, with a quarter totally against and a fifth declaring themselves neutral. Respondents were torn when considering whether saving lives or territorial unity were more important to them. Those most touched by the war, namely the internally displaced, were more likely to prioritise saving lives. Other research reveals that those farthest from the battlefields have the most hawkish attitudes.

At that time Sauron is his successor, not his minion Its refreshing that at no point does Sauron hatch a plan to bring his master back. gently caress that guy, he's gone and probably never coming back, also the gods have abandoned the world so Sauron can pretty much do whatever so long as he can avoid the classic blunder of over reach.

uk-backed-by-us blowing up a pipeline just like they blew up a good peace deal back in feb makes perfect sense imo. it'd also be the funniest outcome that uk just wants to take everything down with it as it sinks in the atlantic ocean

This is the hardest thread to follow because the nature of modern war makes it such that there are so many damned Bernies.

CODChimera posted:what could the ring even do other than corrupt people and turn them invisible? Its the Ring of Power. It grants power. Gollum, Bilbo and Frodo experience power as invisibility because they're voyeuristic little perverts and cowards, and also because they lack imagination. Of course, it doesn't corrupt people either - just because Gandalf says so doesn't make it true. The Ring is just... like, a gun, or whatever. If somebody you knew walked up to you and was like "That gun you have... it must be destroyed! It will corrupt your soul! Not even I can be trusted with a gun! I would become a dread tyrant, and bring ruin to this world!" your first thought would probably be that you should avoid this guy

It's purely a lacanian icongraphy that itself is the symbiosis of power by desire of it's power as an icon in the real. that's what gives it's power, not intrinsic property of the ring, but rather the cartesian projection of the eikon
