You have these guys to thank for that:  Not because of anything positive they did, lord no, but because the peace terms they inflicted on Germany and Austria-Hungary so clearly laid the ground work for the rise of the Nazi party and World War II that most of the Allied diplomats in World War II believed a completely different approach was needed.

And if didn't matter one bit that the Germans had saved their asses at Waterloo, or even that their monarchs were incredibly closely related. The stuff with World War I is more a testament to how much of an idiot Wilhelm II was.

Eric, are you not paying attention? The charge is that you have two books, one where you tell people Mar-a-lago is worth a billion dollars and the other where you tell the tax people it’s worth 18 million. This is exactly what you lost the judgement over. I love that even in death Trumps are so worried about their image that they can’t help but reinforce and repeat the behavior that’s killing them. Edit: Papa Trump is going to have an aneurysm: quote:1) I AM WORTH MUCH MORE THAN THE NUMBERS SHOWN ON MY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. 2) | DIDN'T EVEN INCLUDE MY MOST VALUABLE ASSET, MY BRAND. https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/111133661793804558 Murgos fucked around with this message at 03:51 on Sep 27, 2023 |

A reminder that Eric Trump has never had a job in his entire life that wasn't gifted to him by his convicted sex offender of a father. And that job is "businessman" As in even Eric himself cannot explain it further than that. Yet the motherfucker is richer than you and richer than me. Hooray for capitalism!

I would just use my four-dimensional transport system like Slipstick Libby envisioned and transport a nascent Earth away from the Goldilocks zone, eradicating warfare and strife for all eternity Well okay, but the aliens can have their warfare and strife, it's none of my beeswax

I read a long Harpers article years ago (probably a decade ago now) profiling several Chinese men who had settled in Sub-Saharan Africa to set up Chinese-oriented businesses, a few of whom had started relationships with African women. Their perspectives were equal parts fascinating and horrifying. I distinctly remember one man musing about the genetic characteristics his mixed race children would inherit as if they were farm animals.

Glad to see Chinese men and white men really do have so much in common.

The poor translator, Eddy, put up with a LOT of that guy's racist bullshit, but he does get back at him later when it turns out their chinese made measuring tapes are all different measurements. I hope he's doing better today, it's a decade old docu by now.
