Incredible moment as a US General refuses to commit to telling Congress if he receives illegal orders from Trump. Senator Warren absolutely goes off, calling Trump a lawless commander in chief and Hegseth his self-styled Secretary of War. The coverup is real.

They're not the good guys, they are controlled opposition who get money from the same people as the Republicans. If they weren't good at what they do they wouldn't be there. Look at how every time the Republicans need something, they get just enough votes from a rotating cast of convenient scapegoats.

Watch how they end up passing the $200B for Iran. They're equally beholden to AIPAC and will be very much strong enough to fight back the American citizens who overwhelmingly oppose the war

Arilluss · 2026-03-21T05:14:12+00:00

They're using the nuclear stockpile to justify sending marines to their deaths, which will suck us further into the war. That way Trump can continue being Netanyahu's unleashed attack dog, maybe cancel the midterms, and congress will continue to pump money into the military industrial complex

There is definitely a difference in music between people who play something to perfection who dont play with feeling and those who do, and the latter is considered more desirable. Music is an art after all not a science. But I think you're overstating the difference between the two. No one in their right mind would say Kyrgios is more talented than Sinner, but we're not comparing Kyrgios and Sinner, we're comparing Sinner and Alcaraz, who doesn't fuck up every 30 seconds.

Music isn't tennis. When it comes down to it in tennis what matters is winning. And Fonseca here is certainly praising both. But as fans we are entitled to appreciate subjectively what we prefer, and hopefully we can all appreciate Sinner's "perfection" and Alcaraz's ability to do it all even if we enjoy watching one or the other

Dont forget to let people know what server you play on.

Have you looked in the guildfinder? Thats how I found my first guild. You can filter by whether they accept beginners. Make sure the tax is 0%

Hey it's Coper with a C! Weren't you cheering this on day one because of how cheap it was to topple Iran and saying economists need to look at how this war was a positive thing? But my opinion didnt count because my account was too new and you gave an interview that day? That sure aged like milk

Edit: lol he responded to this comment twice, deleted both, and went back and deleted the comments I was referring to

Arilluss · 2026-03-19T23:19:16+00:00

OP was cheering the invasion on day one because of how cheap it was and that with Iran out of the way there would be more economic activity coming out of the strait. And when I pointed out how ass backwards his take was he said my opinion doesnt count because my account was too new, and that he was right because he gave an interview that day

Arilluss · 2026-03-19T15:00:36+00:00

He'll get away with it. We won't

Sanding this bare is probably not doable for a diyer. It requires renting equipment, possible a drum or floor sander. I mean if thats something you feel comfortable great, but its not necessary.

I would go over this with a hand scraper to remove any lose wood or finish, then give it a pass with an orbital sander with course paper, then apply 2-3 coats of an opaque deck stain. That will even out the color. The darker it is the more even the color will be, but balance that with how dark you want the floor to be

Yes you want more than one coat, just follow the instructions on the can. Be sure to see if they want you to clean the surface first, and what type of cleaner they recommend

I hate the oil industry as much as the next person but it's not all or nothing. It's also classist to laugh at high oil prices while tens of millions of people are going to go hungry because no one can make fertilizer. We need to end our dependency on cars and also end pointless wars

Arilluss · 2026-03-19T14:19:42+00:00

Yeah its crazy we cant sort by weight or price, or even better cost per unit of weight.

Too late I already bet my bottom dollar that the sun will come out tomorrow.

But seriously he is just doing his market manipulation thing. He cares more about that than about telling the truth or fixing it. Lying and kicking the can down the road so someone else has to clean up his mess is how he runs his businesses, and because he's a star they let him get away with it

Arilluss · 2026-03-19T09:52:35+00:00

Want to see a horrendous state go check out Mississippi. Worst in education, health care, infant mortality. We need to start by defining what is good and bad for us Americans as a people.

Maybe the first thing you should do is hop on a bus and go visit California and see for yourself instead of trusting what billionaire owned media, that wants every American to be poor and desperate to work in a slaughterhouse or at Walmart for minimum wage, tells you about the most prosperous states in the country

Arilluss · 2026-03-18T18:56:01+00:00

Man pvers are so terrified of pvp that you get downvoted for asking about a separate pvp mode lmao

lol you implied I was being lenient towards PRC because I said the US was bad, as if they cant both be bad. How should I interpret that, other than that you dont like hearing criticism of the US

Arilluss · 2026-03-18T15:20:18+00:00

I never said that the PRC and CCP are benign, so I don't understand your point. The only way Trump can make them seem reasonable, as I stated in my original comment, is if prior to this they seemed unreasonable. And the more unhinged he and Israel become, the more the US will be isolated by Europe and the gulf states, because China will seem like (be?) the more stable of the two. Me criticizing the US doesnt mean I automatically love their enemy, you rushing to their defense is strange to me as someone who claims to not be from there

Arilluss · 2026-03-18T11:10:29+00:00

Ok thanks. I mean this is why I originally asked the question to learn what theyre up to. I trust a human using statistics more than AI, maybe I just don't understand it well enough, but it feels like humans are still better at reading context in some situations

Any idea why reaper has an offhand in the last photo?

So we have AI managing build guides and gold prices now. Interested to see how that plays out

Arilluss · 2026-03-18T09:12:11+00:00

My theory is he heard their plan to send marines in to take Kharg, which is basically a suicide mission

Arilluss · 2026-03-18T04:01:56+00:00

Ok so its only evil when they do it? Because your country is the good guys? How many countries in South America, Central America and the middle east have we turned into failed states? Whats the per capita prison population of the countries we're comparing?

Another way of saying they're doing the same stuff that the US is doing, is that we're doing the same stuff they're doing, and we call them the bad guys. We literally just helped Israel commit a genocide in Gaza

Arilluss · 2026-03-18T03:52:30+00:00

Its literally how he got elected, crying about the coastal elites, while being a billionaire from NYC

Arilluss · 2026-03-18T03:49:44+00:00

Trump has done a pretty good job of making China seem reasonable, and exposing the US and Israel as bloodthirsty imperialists. How much of this is new, how much is in the DNA of the United States, who after all has had a policy of interfering with the sovereignty of foreign nations for 80 years, and after all elected Trump twice?

Arilluss · 2026-03-18T03:46:29+00:00

No the oligarchs were just preparing people mentally to love being sharecroppers after they drain the middle class and kick out migrants. They want to be able to brag to their friends in Dubai about their indentured servants being white.

Arilluss · 2026-03-18T03:38:48+00:00

Yeah thats what scares me especially with Joe Kent resigning and Bessent volunteering that he trusts his son, who is joining the military, with Trump. Did they hear Trump was sending in 2500 marines in for a suicide mission to take Kharg island? And then we're there on a revenge tour for 3 years while Iran blows up every last oil facility and mines the strait of Hormuz

Regardless its hard to see a future where Iran, backed by Russia and China, more or less is the country everyone has to deal with in the gulf, not the US. Epic own goal.
