Interesting, I wonder if it was a coincidence, a very close miss, or a warning shot. I would think Russia would try pretty hard to avoid killing European prime ministers, at least for the moment.

 

I wonder where this is going...

Hmm, that might be a slightly misleading summary , I think you might need to add the 21.5% "move towards independence" to that. Hard to say though, I don't know Chinese or the particular connotations of the words used in that poll, and I can tell you for sure you'd get different (probably higher) results in the USA poll if you used the word "independence" instead of "secession". Nonetheless, 25.3% is still less than New York and yet nobody is promising to start a war if the federal USA government invades New York, so it's a valid point.

Congratulations Sweden on signing up for the USA's "wonderwaffle of the month" subscription box! For just 2% of your GDP, you'll receive an exciting box of overpriced and overengineered weapon systems every month! (Terms and conditions apply, you may be asked for sacrifice your economy and your lives for the rapidly crumbling American empire)

Fortunately I don't think OP is stupid enough to buy into this shit.

"Soy reddit mentality" dude are you for real right now?

There's no point in "giving someone a chance" if you already know for sure you're not attracted to them, that's usually called "leading someone on" and is generally regarded as crappy behavior.

Bullshit. The great majority of normal human being are not obsessed with judging people and labeling them as "good enough" or not. It's entirely possible to just not feel romantic attraction to someone even if they're rich and fit and interesting or whatever other traits you think make you entitled to affection.

In the USA? This is threatening, sociopath behavior.

From what I hear though, pretty normal in a lot of the rest of the world.

Terrible advice in my opinion, this is just PUA-lite type stuff.

First of all, working out sucks and if your only motivation to do it is a nebulous idea of it making you more attractive to women, you're not going to stick with it long enough for it deliver significant results. Also, there's so many fat nerds out there fucking, you can definitely find love without being super swole. The solution to being rejected once isn't completely internalizing western beauty standards.

Second, OP already has friends so I'm sure they're comfortable talking to people they're familiar with about things that interest them, that's enough. You don't have to be the master rizzler to get a date, you just need to find someone that's interested in what you have to say and has interesting things to say to you.

Third, trying to change who you are for the sake of attracting women is also not likely a change you're going to stick to if that's your only motivation. It's also kind of dishonest, and quite unnecessary, unless of course the part you're trying to change is "I'm a misogynistic sack of shit" but that's another matter. You don't need to be able to dance or play an instrument or all the other stereotypical Hollywood "hot guy" things, you can absolutely build a relationship through the interests you actually care about, whether that be playing a guitar like a rock star or painting armies of little tiny plastic dudes.

Brussels wants to massively boost joint weapons production and procurement among its 27 member states with the ambition of strengthening the continent’s security and reducing reliance on the United States.

A bit too fucking late for that, don't you think?

 

Pretty sure that guy on the left has a black sun patch too but it's slightly too low res to make out for sure. From this WSJ article about the nazis' valiant fight against rodents: https://archive.is/2svOZ
