The status quo is just a lot more visible, now.

I was fine with you knowing this information until “The hard part is always moving the body unnoticed.” Always? As in every single time?

I was actually quoting a buddy of mine. That was his reasoning:

If a loaf of bread goes from $2 to $5 in one presidential term somebody fucked up

You have to love those GOP talking points. State some facts, then intentionally come to all the wrong conclusions. World class whiners.

Occam’s Razor time, he doesn’t have to do anything because we are on the downslope of the inflation. He just has to sit there and tweet for a year, then claim credit. And the same low information voters who said it was Biden’s fault bread went from $2 to $5, will praise his economic prowess.

It was “<breed> dog meat.” I forget the name of the breed, but you can look it up. Apparently, it is a breed specifically raised for food and can also be found in South Korea (e: on the menu).

There is a video going around the interwebs of a Russian soldier freaking out because they were eating it too until someone in the group translated the label.

Of course the numbers are good.

My bullshit detector is going off for a different reason. This is an arbitrary short term vs long term comparison. The money that went to Israel wasn’t going to HUD either way. As someone correctly pointed out, $20B is a rounding error here.

This opinion is a breath of fresh air compared to the rest of tech journalism screaming “AI software engineer” after each new model release.

That dude’s comment was 100% troll baiting. No one makes such braindead arguments in good faith. Why would I waste my time? Now, I’m curious… why are you so upset about my response to a blatant troll?

Sorry, you sounded like you were asking for a definition as if English was not your first language. Did you really want to split hairs over the definition of take? How about, what he said was so stupid it doesn’t warrant a response?

Take is a weird word. Take as a noun refers to what has been taken. So, in this context, it is like an opinion informed by a story. In a more definitional use…

I took from that story that the sky is blue. That is what I have taken from that story, therefore, that is my take.

This take is so stupid, it doesn’t warrant a response.

Hmmm… I’m a staunch pacifist and also 100% behind helping Ukraine. These things are not at odds because the enemy of pacifism is aggression. The person that can actually end the war is on the other side of the world.

Didn’t expect so much hate for this game… In terms of simulations, in 2002, the original game was light years ahead of its time. They did a lot of things right that it took the more popular mil sims years to get correct. I’d go as far as to argue it is one of the most realistic squad-based tactical shooters of all time.

You want to see a picture of me when I was younger?

Thought “libs” was an American specific term. My apologies.

I guess you’re part of the American right? You see… the right in the US has been fed a steady stream of Russian propaganda through their talking heads for a while now. So the right has become indistinguishable from Russian bots. Sorry for the confusion!

That is a great idea. I’m in.
