Google Street View imagery of Jamtland County, Sweden within the GeoGuessr interface. Many tree types common in northern New England are visible, as are farmhouses painted red.
I could've easily confused this for rural New Hampshire or Maine, or perhaps Atlantic Canada. Good thing I didn't!
Whatever. I still hate my country and would rather live in Russia.
And yet it hasn't worked.
The war won't end for at least 3 years because Hegseth is enjoying this. He sees it as a video game.
This war is not going to end as long as Trump is President. He's clearly having the time of his life, as is Hegseth. Honestly, if you voted for Trump, you voted for this, and I'd respect you more if you just admit it. If you're gonna say, "I dIdN't VoTe FoR tHiS" and play dumb, go fuck a cactus.
Is that in Portugal?
I thought there was nothing left to strike?
Devastating.
I've just got a pit in my stomach reading about this. I sadly live in a country where mass shootings are far more common, and it's perhaps for that reason that we don't often hear about the aftermath in terms of the effect on victims' loved ones.
Thirty years ago today, a devastating event happened that changed gun laws forever...in the UK. The USA will NEVER pass gun control, and even if we did, it wouldn't work. I hate my fucking country!
How reliable is district-level polling? In my memory, not very.
Of course, by supporting CBS with my viewership I am perhaps part of the problem. I'll readily admit that.
"Around the world"...you mean "all over the US", right? The rest of the world follows the science. We follow QAnon.
I can't boycott the show I love, but I know who I'm rooting against. I'm disappointed Stephenie hasn't had her hilariously embarrassing blindside yet.
You have to realize that half this country are just not good people.
Senator, all due respect to Asian Carp haters, for whom I'm sure this is a big deal, I think the fact that he threatened to annex Canada again merits a mention.
If he invaded Iran, he might invade Canada. Fuck this country with a cactus.
Usually I'm appalled at the way the administration uses AI slop on social media to announce their policies. This time, however, I find it hilarious somehow.
War II.
Personally, if I saw that for myself, I'd see that as a reason to take Grandpa's car keys away (except obviously a set of car keys are far less powerful than what Trump has). This story is insane, but also darkly hilarious.
For whatever reason I just remembered the story Lindsey Graham told about why he decided to become a Trump sycophant. He said that early in Trump's first term, Trump freaked out when he thought the US had been nuked; he was watching archived footage of the atomic bombings of Japan that ended World
Realistically, it won't be moved. FIFA might be even more corrupt than the Trump administration. Plus at this point it would be too much of a logistical hurdle.
That being said, do people care about the World Cup as much as they did 15-20 years ago? Anecdotally, I have my doubts.
It sucks, but it's also understandable. I probably wouldn't feel safe visiting as a non-citizen, as disgusted as I am about everything.
What about a far more large-scale event, one involving millions of people at soccer stadiums, one you might have heard of? Could that be moved too?
Noted.
I literally searched for any news that there'd been a mass shooting at a Whole Foods. This wasn't a funny joke.
Holy shit, what happened?
I'll add you, you seem cool.
Given how most of Xitter is porn bots and redhats, I think BlueSky is generally a more reliable source.
I agree with you about the government, but the civilians are perfectly justified in hating us after we bombed a school for shits and giggles.
The idea of “medical freedom” weighs one parent’s decision to refuse vaccines as more important than another’s decision to protect their own children from contagious, vaccine-preventable diseases”.
@jimalwine.bsky.social and I in a new OpEd about AZ trying to ban childhood vaccine requirements.
I would like the war to end soon for a number of reasons, but I honestly think it'll last years.
