Well given that I'm neither American nor particularly aligned to Washington Post (I had to Google "wapo") or the New York Times, it wasn't a particularly interesting question. Having lived by the South China Sea however... yeah it's probably more pertinent to my interests what Yogibear posts about that.

Did you forget your image macro?

I guess we'll find out when Yogsy posts them some day.

Be careful, I heard that having strong opinions on seed oils lowers your testosterone

Ukraine certainly was one of the most corrupt nations in Europe. Pre-pandemic its CPI score was 30, placing it between Bolivia and Myanmar.

Russia scored 28 (ie, worse). So I'm not sure what outcome you expect from Ukraine losing. I'm also interested to hear if you think countries like Mexico, Nigeria or Cambodia, also below Ukraine in the ranking, are "evil" and don't deserve statehood.

I know. I know. I'm already a converted vegetarian or "bad at it vegan". I'm spending a fortune on an EV car payment. My electricity is from a wind farm. I'm off all the socials. I've been recycling properly for decades and they tell me it was pointless. I'm getting pretty tired of personal responsibility. Can we do the guillotines now? I can't make the first move. I've got kids and a mortgage. Start rounding them up and I can do some small part there too.

Look, that's honestly quite sad and very telling of the way things are, but I audibly snorted at the idea of Jeff Bezos noticing his income slightly lower this week, panicking, scrambling to find The Borbendorfs' payment. A single tear wells up, but he wipes it away frantically. Never let them see. Never let them know how it hurts.

One of the good things about living in Ireland is that I'm 99% our government is neither competent enough to perpetrate elaborate crimes against its people without being exposed almost instantly, nor powerful enough that even fascists getting into government would have a meaningful impact bar providing a colourful humorous segment of the inevitable documentary on Europe's second fall to the Axis.
