Presumably in their view those kids have been saved from a life of gay pride parades

The government as bagholder of last resort

Johnny Rotten lied to us

I hope the last one is also getting her German citizenship; being a EU citizen could be useful (and even if not, her kids might appreciate the ability to more easily become one).

And everybody sounds like they’re from somewhere in the Midwest?

I have a Clas Ohlson (a Swedish dry-goods chain, operating in Scandinavia, Germany and formerly the UK) store-brand vacuum. They’re inexpensive and reliable.

When Tesla tanks, China will buy its remnants at fire-sale prices.

With luck, Europe can step in (and possibly the other Five Eyes countries in line with then cutting the US out of their own intelligence sharing), and if Ukraine can hold on, the US has less that it can meaningfully withhold. Of course, Trump will eventually pivot to giving Russia military aid, though hopefully European tech is not beneath shooting down some Tomahawk cruise missiles if needed. (And Europe needs to harden its defences for the possibility that US weapons may be used against them.)

I wonder if Ukraine’s European allies (France, the UK, and such) could provide non-US replacements for the EW pods, and whether hacking those into a F-16 would be harder than getting a Soviet-era MiG to fire NATO missiles (which Ukraine successfully did before it got the F-16s). If that would be doable, it’d be cheaper than replacing the F-16s

Have they made her Jewish now?

Bitcoiners have sex?

The LitterLocker cat litter disposal system (i.e. a bin with a springloaded door, which accepts cartridges of continuous plastic bags) is Canadian, IIRC, and widely sold in Europe

Access Industries being the Blavatnik mob?

So they’re doubling down on the Blue Maga strategy?

Well, they do have cliffs

They could lean into sarcasm:“don’t forget to tip your landlord”. Or just Koalang it, coming up with an ever-shifting system of allegorical codewords (“green Mario” could probably last for a week or so before the river crabs catch on).

There was Corbyn, who, after his antisemitism judgment, has been deplatformed by the mainstream media, not to mention repellent, self-serving tankies like Galloway. There was a media-savvy “dirtbag left” (think Russell Brand, in his sex-god-Che-Guevara era), though for some reason they keep turning fash as soon as it gets expedient, and are the opposite of a solution here.
