NYT: "A senior American official said that NATO officials and the intelligence community had spent weeks waiting for a Russian war commander to emerge. No one has".
I heard same thing last week from an official: each major Russian force grouping is fighting its own separate war. https://t.co/b5KMUm9dIZ

LOL. You simply cannot fight a war that way and achieve any reasonable objective.
How is this woman not immediately breaking up with this terrible loser right after smacking him with a blue whale-sized trout?
Which is what anyone with half a brain cell told you was going to happen. Most US libs are prudish puling puritans anyway, so of course they supported this fully.
oh no no no no https://t.co/XzO0Kvwwlo

Those people are lucky that they aren’t magnetic mines, which are pretty common. Don’t even have to touch one for it to detonate.
Hint: don’t do this!
Few people understand how powerful even a “low-yield” nuclear weapon actually is. The lowest-yield US nuclear weapon is the lowest setting on the variable-yield B61-3 or B61-4 gravity bomb deployed at six NATO bases in Europe: 0.3 kilotons, which is equivalent to 300 tons of TNT. https://t.co/Pd2KipKr0w pic.twitter.com/8H63fJVQI0

Even the little kaboom makes a big kaboom.
Putting calories on menus won’t solve obesity, but it will harm those of us with eating disorders.
Oh, bullshit. I love calorie counts on menus. I use that frequently and am very, very glad they are there. Hope these whiners don’t get them removed.
Manage your own shit, people.
This study finds 9 percent (!?!) of teenagers attempted suicide during the first half of 2021.
55% reporting emotional abuse and 11% reporting physical abuse. https://t.co/XycTZEAaGz

Dang. Yeah, was always super-suspicious of those studies that show that teens were overjoyed to sit inside doing nothing at all for months at a time, missing most of ther lives. Especially since I have had friends and acquaintances tell me things like, “Madison hasn’t been the same since she missed most of the important events of her last two high schools years. She’s depressed and doesn’t want to leave her room.” And I don’t know many people!
“Studies show.” Yeah, studies can show anything. I care about what’s happening in the real fucking world.

OMG WTF.
Quantum mechanics is a lot easier to understand than immunology.
A lot, lot easier.
I went @jamespoulos's book launch party the other night in Austin, & I was trying to describe the crowd to my wife afterwards. I'm telling here that the people basically self-identified as "right," so she's like "but in what way?" Me: they're sorta just Clinton-era liberals.🤷♂️ https://t.co/W5knQj9m5T

Good thread. He’s mostly correct. A Clinton-era liberal would now be described by many current “liberals” as right or often far-right. Since in many ways my views have not changed since the late 1990s, I guess that makes me on the right too to many people — though I certainly don’t identify myself that way.
There’s nothing wrong with evolving as the times do (one should!) but too much of the left now believes that biology isn’t real, that women’s sports should be destroyed, that no one needs love, sex, friendship, etc. And that many of them are perfectly content to destroy society to “prevent” a relatively-mild virus — well, I and many people want no part of any of that. It’s nothing I want to be associated with at all.
I’m not alt-right-, right-wing or even close to that. I’m not on any team. Fuck all teams. Keep me off them and keep them away from me. But what the modern left has become is a malformed bundle of self-contradictory beliefs that harm more people than it helps. No thank you.
It’s seriously bizarre what libs have claimed no one needs in the past few years. It started before the pandemic and then got worse when Covid hit, but according to them no one needs these things:
I have no idea what kind of galactic-level crack these mooks have found to smoke, but it’s both entertaining and distressing.
