I think he’s just responding to people being like “What’s the big deal? I have to report what I’m working on.” Like I don’t see any disagreement between you two.

Genuinely solid predictions. The dress-up mechanic seems more like the princess peach game, but still fits with all of mario’s stuff.

It directly states that Humanitarian is always the largest, except for FY2023 because of Ukraine.

Actually looking deeper I realized you were incorrect with your initial framing. The reason why "Governance" is higher than "Humanitarian" aid is solely due to the appropriations of the war in Ukraine. That's literally what it says in the report with the chart you cited.

USAID has plenty of metrics and such to show their efficacy. I don't know how you think it helps to deceptively attack the organization Musk is trying to destroy. Hell, that's even worse than the ineffective stuff Connelly is doing.

They spend more on governance because USAID focuses on sustainable infrastructure. They are trying to help people help themselves so they don’t need more aid. Suggesting they should have ulterior motives like fight the taliban is weirdo CIA-bullshit that causes blowback. Just help people.

Did you even talk to any federal workers at USAID before releasing that?
comment in response to post
Your bizarre hitpiece on USAID is republican-levels of deception. USAID's goal is not to fight the taliban? It's to build *sustainable* infrastructure in places so they can help themselves. Pointing out that 'Governance' is what most of the aid goes to is simply that. It's not just giving stuff out.

Armor Games was so fun. In particular, Achievement Unlocked and This Is The Only Level were very memorable.

You might also want to try Minecraft Randomizer over at Archipelago. This is also a fun way to speedrun it. archipelago.gg/games/Minecr...
