Tankard

Yep, that is 100% in no way a fucking tank. It’s a self-propelled howitzer. It has a completely different mission, different goals, and different performance characteristics.

The above piece of equipment absolutely cannot do what a tank does nor is it intended to.

What a fucking nitwit.

(For the curious, that’s an M109.)

Sanna-ty

She is right, as has been clear for a while; the Baltics and likely Poland would’ve been up next if Russia had succeeded easily and quickly in Ukraine. Then, perhaps Finland as well. Having already fought more than one bloody war against Russia, Sanna Marin and Finland in toto operate under no illusions about the Russian threat.

Many people there still alive recall losing relatives to Russian invasion. It’s not some nebulous faraway risk like it is to clownish American leftists.

Bearing In

The World Economy No Longer Needs Russia. With alternative sources in place, Putinโ€™s attempt at blackmailing Europe on energy has failed.

Funny, I was told if we didn’t bow down to Russia, Europe would inevitably become a de-industrialized backwater and that we’d all die of famine. Huh. Turns out that most people don’t have a damn clue what they are talking about (especially when they are suffering from Russian propaganda infusions).

Living Colour

Obama had unachievements yet people worshipped him no matter what he did (mostly nothing). Biden has actually done some good things because he was forced to. A huge difference there.

Ween

People be like, “Sydney Sweeney’s body should be banned!” and then go out and snarf 3,000 calories per meal.

Which of those exactly should be illegal, if we’re competing to prohibit offensive and harmful things? I know which way I’ll vote, and it won’t be against Sweeney.

Cycle

My friend, you should read some of Ian Welsh’s takes. He starts with the merely very dumb, accelerates it in a cyclotron to almost the speed of light, smashes it into more nearly-luminal BS going in the opposite direction and produces an explosion of the cosmically mega-dumb.

It’s quite a sight to behold.

Swap

Why Itโ€™s Okay to Buy A Mac With Only 8 GB RAM.

LOL! Fucking absurd. I’ve known people with Macs with only 8GB of RAM. They were not fucking happy and their computer was swapping more than a gaggle of retirees at a flea market. No, it does not matter if it’s the new Apple chipset. Only 8GB of RAM is not enough to do anything. This article is total clown crap.

Or if you don’t trust me, trust Lauren.

Orung

Girls be like: It’s morally wrong that a man doesn’t want to date a woman who looks and acts like an orangutan.

Same girls, looking and acting like an orangutan: I will only date a man who makes more than 100K a year, is 6’2″ or above, owns a house, and will accept my horrifying terribly-behaving kids as his own.

Damn I am so glad I’m not on that scene.
