NGL, whenever I see anything major happening and want:
1. To know if it's true
2. A sensible initial read on the situation
I come straight to your profile. Thanks for all the work you do.

Can we stop using the term "War fighting"?
It's just fucking stupidly redundant.

This was exactly what I had in my mind.
The US still able to play a benign lead role in the world if no Iraq - climate front and centre, Ukraine with real support, far greater global stability.
No Trump.

Summers evening with 15 mates, some old, some new, the smell of pizza, and beer, 4 CRT TVs, 4 Xboxs, 16 controllers and the booming voice shouting KILLTACULAR.
Your car is in the driveway, the exhaust fell off driving here, it's in the boot. You'll deal with that in the morning. Right now, bliss

Speaking as a Brit in Australia, everyone I know that had plans to visit the US has now cancelled/changed their plans.
No-one wants to risk it now. Except my mum, who's flying in to see her grandkids next month. I'm really worried, I know she'll probably be fine, but this is ridiculous.

Tbh, anything that decreases the US military's effectiveness right now is a positive.

You failed to cover all possible interpretations in your 300 character post.
Rookie mistake 😂

Been eyeing up that EV6 for a couple of years now. Is it as good as it seems? We have a Stinger GT right now.

Let’s be honest, not a lot of folks right now who can afford to be 40-100k in debt right now.

This.
The only realistic way to come out ahead is to have the car spontaneously combust, get stolen and/or get wrecked some other way after carefully purchasing a comprehensive insurance policy that pays out full purchase cost in cash.

Agreed, always happy to have a discussion and maybe learn something, but when it’s just insults this blocking makes life so much better.
