There has been a lot of talk that the Hamas attacks were to cynically prevent a successful Saudi/Israeli deal. But nothing on the current Israeli strikes possibly being a cynical attempt to prevent a renewed Iran/USA deal.

I hope they lose. Not because I dislike the team, the players, the fans or even the media, but because: It will be objectively funny

Weird to be throwing around this sort of stuff given what Elon is saying about the Epstein files.

So much misinformation flying around. Ukraine returned all Soviet warheads on its territory by 1996. Whether or not Ukraine ever had an independent capability to launch them is debatable at most. They certainly never had the capacity to maintain them. Was Ukraine ever a "nuclear power": no.

Surely this impacts Russia's assessment of it ability to project power and/or deter NATO? It just lost 30-40% of strategic strike aircraft? Surely it's equivalent of SIOP needs revision?

Looks like you're trying to safely fly 300 passengers at 35 thousand feet through busy airspace. Would you like some help with that?

Taxis in Belfast are dreadful. Arrived from Dublin to Lanyon place. Any other country in the world there'd be a queue of taxis at the rank. Not NI. Had to walk down some stairs to a back exit and pick up a proprietary phone to tell them the Dublin train had just arrived and about 30ppl wanted taxis

Can't see this not resulting in a significant reaction from Trump admin. Tariffs have been one of the few things they've actually been able to point to as an "achievement".

The old company line: No you can't have money to do X, Y and Z productive things. We need that money for exec A, B & C to fly first class to meetings that could have been an email. A story as old as time.
