In 2005 I was a civilian contractor working for the United States Department of Defense. I can safely state with great confidence that you do not gently caress with the US Military unless you have no desire to continue existing.

He also played a piano with his cock

Is it wrong to think about the fact that Zelenskyys cock would have to be hard enough to be able to hit the piano keys with any kind of passion but not hard enough for a full erection because that would have probably destroyed the piano completely and then consider the fact that a limp cock simply would not have worked at all, or have I already put way too much thought into this?

Or maybe you are all prudes and the intricacies and delicate considerations of a man tickling the ivories with his manhood is just something that’s too much for your puritan sensibilities

Wheres my (canada) healthcare super military then?

edit: we have to depend on our southern third world country level healthcare cousin to defend us, very useful. But hey, I have free healthcare(that im paying out of the rear end for) that I never used in 38 years.

honestly, even if we could share our healthcare with our American neighbors across the border, there's no loving way our infrastructure could handle 300 million plus new patients. We have a tenth of the population of the United States and already have massive wait times for certain surgeries.

Better to have massive wait times than simply being told to pay up or die

That's true. I wish we COULD share our socialized medicine with you guys because learning that medical bankruptcy is actually a thing and happens often was absolutely shocking. That is NOT a thing in Canada. Ever.

e:holy poo poo you guys pay HOW MUCH for insulin? That's...that's not right at all. Nope.

Anyway to get back on topic, my younger brother spent a couple of years in Kyiv and Saint Petersburg, teaching both peoples. He is fluent in both Russian and Ukrainian and has been mistaken for a native born of both countries. When I talk to him I can see that this conflict just breaks his heart because he loves both Russians and Ukrainians. It's very difficult for him to watch his friends kill each other.

re: F-16's

Anyone mocking the F16 doesn't understand; Vipers are really, really loving loud and they shake the walls and knock things off shelves when they fly overhead. Don't underestimate how intimidating a combat fighter from the 1970's and early 80's can be.

I was trying to talk to someone about this war yesterday, but I found it hard to be objective because I am literally descended from people that fled Stalins Holodomor. Other ancestors used to live on the Prut River bordering Romania, but the Russians destroyed that too. Sorry, I’m just frustrated because nothing seems to have changed over there. gently caress

At least I can think about my wife’s ancestors, who kicked the British out of Pennsylvania. That puts me in a better mood.

That is all. My family settled in Manitoba Canada after fleeing the Holodomor. My grandfather joined the Canadian Armed Forces and met my Grandmother while training in England for some kind of beach landing in 1944. He helped to free Holland from the Nazi's.

When I lived there, I used to go buy cigarettes at a tiny shack across the street from my student hostel. They were 30 rubles a pack (roughly $1 USD at the time) and they were the worst, most loving vile things I'd ever smoked. Russian cigarettes are so loving lovely they made me quit smoking entirely and I've been nicotine free for 13 years and counting. It's notable to me because it was the first time in my life that my life itself was improved because of how lovely something was.

I've worked in cybersec and with Ukrainians in the past and Ukrainian hackers fall into two categories; super boring, humourless and insanely competent, and really nice dudes who are insanely competent. I'm sure there are other varieties out there, but that's my own experience. It was weird as gently caress working with guys in Kyiv while the invasion was ongoing. These hacker dudes with cardboard boxes of Molotov's on the kitchen table behind them. I also worked with Belarusians. They were cool, but in a more sinister gangster kinda way. The Ukrainians were always a touch more dorky and endearing.

That was my experience working with Ukrainian Netcracker employees as well. They really, really know their poo poo.

e: a word of caution. English is my first language but apparently my Ukrainian accent is excellent because the Netcracker people were immediately suspicious. My first attempt to greet them in Ukrainian apparently surprised them because they asked me "where are you from?".

They described my accent as 'too good' for someone not born in Ukraine. I had to quickly explain that my younger brother had lived in Ukraine and had taught me how to speak, so as to address their suspicion.
