If Israel didn’t exist they’d have to create one to serve US interests in the region.

Real Biden heads know this

They’ll threaten anything they can to placate a genocidal apartheid state.

Hey now, not just any genocidal apartheid state. They’re not doing this shit for China or Iran or Russia.

Israel isn’t just a bunch of evil fucks. They’re the gun pointed at the head of the Egyptian government, for the purpose of controlling the Suez Canal. They’re the knife at the neck of Jordan and Lebanon and Kuwait, guaranteeing cheap oil continues to flow into the American economy. They’re a field testing ground for the next generation of brutal police and paramilitary tactics and weapons. The crowd disbursement weapons and surveillance tracking tools and social media misinformation campaigns used to break up knots of Palestinian resistance, hunt down dissidents for capture and killing, and to turn Arabs against one another today will be the same ones unleashed at the next OWS or Ferguson protest or Trucker Rally tomorrow.

And then there’s the sheer volume of money laundering. Now that Switzerland and the Bahamas and Panama have all been staked out, Israel is such a great place to move your money whether you’re an international arms dealer or you’re just looking to hide cash from the IRS.

Israel serves so many different geopolitical interests for wealthy western plutocrats. What’s a little ethnic cleansing in exchange for all of that?

The media will eat this up. They love their John McCain warmongering and Mitt Romney deficit scalding. And they adore bipartisanship, particularly when it becomes an excuse to have Democrats in the White House signing Republican legislation.

The liberals will fawn all over Harris for bringing in more Republicans to Beat Trump. Winning the election is all that really matters. Policy is a distant secondary concern.

Was this the cargo plane that tacked through the edge of the perimeter?

Or are you talking about some unreported plane that buzzed the Shinjuko tower?

China when someone does a thing it does for years

Wait, when was the last time a Chinese naval frigate circled Okanawa?

Wonder which western business he’ll end up as a highly paid consultant for.

It is a fact that USB-C is superior.

The floating tang in the center of the USB-C receiver is a classic “planned obsolescence” design feature. Its built to fail and force you to buy a new device.

You’d think modern browsers would prohibit this, or at least throw up a warning.

let democracy and the will of the people reign

Two of Maduro’s closest allies — the leftist presidents of Brazil and Colombia

Well, that’s a flat out lie.

recently joined a chorus of nations, including the U.S.

Country that loves to do coups in Latin America has strong feelings about the state of democracy in this Latin American state.

Maduro warned that a bloodbath would happen after the election if the opposition didn’t accept his victory.

He was right. Right-wing rioters tore through Caracas, killing police and civilians alike. This is just J6 for Venezuelans.

Wasn’t Bin Laden a CIA asset during the 80s? Might be more curious to know why he was using the last dredges of the Operation Cyclone budget to bite the hand that fed him.

Didn’t know Mexico was as backwards as the US

SSM was legalized under ALMO back in 2022. Incidentally, quite a few Americans absolutely hate ALMO for falling to endorse the continued embargoes of Cuba and Venezuela, and the genocide in Gaza.

Anyone complaining about all the terrible things that might happen to people under Trump hasn’t been in Texas or Florida over the last four years.

It’s nauseating to see Democrats throw their liberal fellows in arms under the bus, election cycle after election cycle, on the grounds that they deserve to suffer for having a fascist governor.

what do you say to people that will be hurt if trump wins?

I would say they should not have voted for him.

What do you say to people that will be hurt if Harris wins?

There’s a certain dramatic irony in the effort to account for labor activity in the business making the actual process of work significantly worse.

• Ask for per-task time tracking

• Get angry when you use round numbers in your time estimates, because “How could every task possibly take increments of five minutes?!”

• Get angry when you use arbitrary non-rounded time entries, because “How am I supposed to determine the average time it takes you to complete a task when there’s so much variance?!”

• Gets angry when you spend an hour every day filling out your fucking time cards, because “You’re not supposed to bill for that!”

• Gleefully accepts absolute garbage work that you just subcontracted to Fivr.

Don’t worry. I’m sure it’ll turn out the Hamas negotiators were the unreasonable ones the whole time.

Teach her to order something off a foreign-language menu, invite the family out to dinner, and see if she can place her order fluently.

Doing the “Five year old white girl shocks waitress by ordering Orange Chicken in perfect Mandarian” bit IRL would be pretty funny and adorable.

Can’t believe they got Weird Al to do “Dare to be Stupid” for that film. What a moment in history.
