The issue was they had no launch control over them, then. They wanted to keep them from being able to utilize them to start a nuclear program, in future. If the 21st century has shown anything, not like countries ask global permission to start their nuclear programs due to MAD, see 🇮🇷 🇮🇱 🇵🇰 🇮🇳 🇰🇵

Ahh gotcha. Interesting.

Im a little confused by the South Africa reference here. Ukraine’s weapons were all transferred back to Russia for dismantlement, so which other nation that gave them up are you meaning here?
comment in response to post
Thats true. The nuclear material (ICBMs) had they couldn’t actually launch - then. But they were built in Ukrainian SSR and they had substantial knowledge of the Soviet nuclear program. Certainly enough knowledge to be deemed it important enough they surrender them upon the dissolution of the USSR.
comment in response to post
Is it? They were in the Ukranian SSR when the USSR dissolved, *because* they were built there.

Hadn’t thought of it like that. Thanks, I appreciate your helpful response to my question.

What on earth does *this* have to do with Aukus? 😵‍💫

Theyre called The Crusades, actually.

Personally I prefer this take on the POA to reciting it. bsky.app/profile/craz...

I’m a bit confused. Tbh overt maga type patriotism bothers me too. But what other flag would be appropriate? Historically, the stars and stripes flag is the original “no kings” flag, right?

Thats the best friendly fire incident ever. 🤷‍♀️

Former ND resident… that makes me happy to hear. 🥰

And people showed up anyway. Lots of them. Maybe focus on that? :)

I do not think people should stay home, but I think it’s erroneous to say its unrelated.

Wait, what? These shootings seem like more of a reason to attend them? 😵‍💫 🤔

Has been for a long time. ❤️

*bygones… oof 🤦‍♀️
comment in response to post
Yeah, if you genuinely shared it with good intentions, then there is absolutely no reason double down and to not remove them all when its pointed out that its bad information, *and* the account you got it from removes it. 😤
comment in response to post
Lol they blocked me, that probably says everything. 😏

Honestly the obstinate partisan deductive reasoning, that lacks any reasonable nuance, is frustrating to read.
comment in response to post
Right. I was calling them out on their assertion that they were. If you’re going to force someone to report all your posts, instead of deleting them, then clearly you’re not on the same side.
comment in response to post
Really? Then it would seem that you’re *not* on the same side.
comment in response to post
Yeah, maybe except Thomas Massie and his brand of committed asshole MAGA. 😏
comment in response to post
And you cant even opt out to not see them, just to see them *less*. Pass.

I logged back into X to my (now dormant) circa 2009 account this morning. I had notifications suggesting tweets from Jack Posobiec, Stephen Miller, Richard Hanania and Noah Smith. 😵‍💫 I promptly closed the app.

Except… in this case they have the evilcorp power to potentially have a precedent set that protects all copyright holders from generative AI plagiarism/exploitation, including those that are completely without the litigation power they have. So.
comment in response to post
Thanks AI. I hate when I ever have to side with the dual evilcorps that are Disney and Comcast/Universal. But here we are… 😤😑

Honestly (given how he’s already screwed over red states/populations) they may as well put it all in an interest-earning disaster rainy day fund, and self-fund their own relief efforts. 🥴
comment in response to post
Yeah. Once you’ve made it abundantly clear they can enforce like masked thugs who are a law unto themselves, with the full blessing of the govt and zero accountability - well I’m sure there are more than a few ICE agents taking that as a green light for actions they have always wanted to take.
comment in response to post
Im guessing because Stephen Miller shouted at a few more people?
comment in response to post
*Of course* he cites Megan McArdle. 😏

Interestingly men have vocal fry too, yet its *only* annoying when its coming from any woman.
comment in response to post
Thats actually a pretty good summation of it.
comment in response to post
Pretty sure Dave Portnoy could not handle the kind of blunt talk I have in mind.
comment in response to post
Ugh, she showed her face on here, with the same schtick takes she has on Twitter? 🥴
comment in response to post
Thug power-tripping cops. Thats who.

It’s cope. People (somewhat understandably) just want to believe that more people didn’t deliberately vote for a second term of him. They did.

Thats how I afforded to visit France many years ago - a baguette and cheese a day goes pretty far! 🥰😅

Damn, the hand of a Murdoch lackey is all over that front page. And I’m here for it. 🍿
comment in response to post
Thank you. I actually am going to have this added to mine.
comment in response to post
Damn more than one bad take there, on that Twitch streamer account. Yikes. What are they talking about? I literally have both LoZ Switch 2 games in my hands right now.

Reform sells papers and generates clicks, responsible governing doesn’t. 😕🤷‍♀️

Unless you’re a deported immigrant, of course. Then these countries are just FINE.

Lol, I just passed a bunch of people lined up outside GameStop a few minutes ago.

If the words Marsha Blackburn podcast are featured in it, I doubt ut will be. 😑

This 👇 is the *highly effective ad* referenced in the article.

Yes, I learned pretty early in my studies, that it’s very often the Crusaders that were the historical villains at that time.
