I was wondering how quickly into the article there would be fascist dog-whistling about invading Kursk. 2nd paragraph.

“I felt myself a part of history, because it was the first time since the Second World War Russia’s been invaded,” Sergei, the flaxen-haired trooper, told POLITICO
“I had the most powerful feeling,” he said.

So JB is going to star as the snake, right? Giving KG the squeeze was just him working on his method.

ctrl + f 'hannibal' : 0 results

I really believe this is one of the biggest blindspots of the Israeli public. They are still unable to even acknowledge how many people died on Oct 7th to the military response. This author has family in Be'eri, where the tanks shot houses that were filled with hostages. He has to know about the various documented instances of Hannibal Directive happening on Oct 7th. Just another one of the "it's Hamas' fault" denialism that he writes about in other cases, but cannot even mention. The latest genocide campaign really started when the commanders authorized the 'killing zone' along the Gaza fence area that included the rave festival grounds.

This denial is critical to keep the big lie of Oct 7th alive, to maintaining some thin veneer of victimhood over the top of continuing genocidal acts through out Palestine.

Carry trades refer to operations wherein an investor borrows in a currency with low interest rates, such as the Japanese yen, and reinvests the proceeds in higher-yielding assets elsewhere. The trading strategy has been hugely popular in recent years.

I use the adb method. Gets the job done with minimal fuss. I have a few cmds saved in a text file for copy, delete older than x days, etc.

 

I try to avoid driving in the city generally because sicko-biker

But occasionally I have to operate a car in the city during rush hour, and it seems like every 2 blocks some rideshare is stopping in a travel lane to do pick-up/drop-off.

I can understand it to some degree if there is truly a complete gridlock of traffic (no harm no foul), but seems like people just be putting on emergency flashers and stopping about anywhere now.

Anyway, just another reason to avoid getting in a car when inside a city.

 

Adm. Rob Bauer, NATO's top military officer, discusses what business and government can do to defend themselves, what he sees as the need for increased defense spending and how a second Trump presidency could affect the alliance.

from WSJ News

a few of the phrases:

  • rules-based international order (no mention of ICC/ICJ etc obviously)
  • govts should be more like business, business should think more like govts
  • in China they all think about 'we', but in the west it's all about 'me'
  • invest in MIC for the future of the west

the message is pretty clearly 'more austerity is required for more MIC or we are gonna be screwed' if you read between the lines a bit

Was just think about the ‘bounty’ as equivalent to IMF loans, etc. Han was packing heat to protect himself from a threat to his existence, just like all the AES having to defend themselves from imperialist plots.

Not sure how much I would trust an 'open cell network' standard coming from 5EYES, but it is funny to see them trying to find a way to remain competitive with China's tech industry.

 

"Growing the beard" refers to the opposite of jumping the shark; i.e. when a show dramatically improves in quality. In the series Star Trek: The Next Generation the second season is considered to be better in terms of storytelling over the first season. This shift coincided with character William Riker, who was clean-shaven for the first season, growing a mustache and beard that he retained for the second season and most Star Trek media afterwards.

"L" because we know Labor creates all value.

I don't know much of the financial details of how this would work exactly, but it sure seems like ELMU is playing with some serious fire by going ahead with the Twitter purchase to save face, when paying to not do the deal was likely the much more prudent move
