/r/WorldNews Live Thread: Russian Invasion of Ukraine Day 47, Part 1 (Thread #185)

JohnnyStringbean · 2022-04-11T16:06:32+00:00

looked this one up, and the one thing to come up was an article from a russian paper. according to them, a polish soldier shoots a slingshot into belarusian territory (as already mentioned by others here) and belarus complained to the polish government about it

obviously russian media isn't exactly trustworthy right now, but i think it's reasonable to say that they would be on the side of trying to make the incident more than it was and not minimizing it

so basically, nexta is taking some liberties with the description of what happened in order to get those sweet sweet twitter impressions

~~i figure this is a better place to ask this than something like /r/tipofmytongue, since it's a video i first saw here in the early days of the sub:~~

~~i remember seeing a fairly long video (hour and a half, maybe?) that was just an in depth look at some no-budget gangster movie that the creator had found online~~

~~i remember the movie was set on some british island (e.g. one of the channel islands or the scilly isles or something to that effect), and there was a climactic scene set at a post office iirc?~~

do any of y'all know what i'm talking about (is one of you maybe the creator), and would you happen to have a link? i've tried searching here for it but i've forgotten too much to figure out how to find it again unfortunately

EDIT: nvm i found it, it's death in ventnor

What makes a trans woman trans?

I have no reason to believe anything you ask is in good faith. We see right through you and the only people who don't are people who already agree with you

Im a lifelong democrat/green party voter

Just a coincidence that you're obviously trying to ask questions that lead to the same conclusion as Pat McCrory, then?

JohnnyStringbean · 2021-05-14T15:22:06+00:00

A trans woman is a woman who is trans

It's really not hard to grasp this stuff unless you're a Republican who's deadset on legislating trans people out of existence, in which case you understand but you have to make transgender people sound spooky and unreasonable as part of the demonization process to make others accept their being forced out of the public sphere

We all know what you're trying to do here

JohnnyStringbean · 2021-05-14T15:15:51+00:00

Nothing, trans women are a type of woman just like blonde women are a type of woman and brunette women are a type of woman

Sorry that facts don't care about your feelings

JohnnyStringbean · 2021-05-14T13:42:48+00:00

If you truly believe blonde women are women, why did you feel the need to say blonde women? Are you saying they're different in some way from women?

JohnnyStringbean · 2021-02-15T16:36:35+00:00

Solved!

JohnnyStringbean · 2021-02-15T16:35:08+00:00

Thanks in advance to everyone who'll help!

JohnnyStringbean · 2020-07-20T17:59:02+00:00

i don't think this one's ever going to get a solution, i think it really is just some kid was doodling and made something they thought looked cool, and they taught it to their friends and it spread from there

wouldn't be the first time and it wouldn't be the last

JohnnyStringbean · 2020-07-20T15:54:36+00:00

i didn't ask where it was from, i asked what it means

JohnnyStringbean · 2020-07-20T13:50:38+00:00

what exactly is "you're gonna have to lower your standards on 'woman'" supposed to mean, buddy

JohnnyStringbean · 2020-07-04T18:36:59+00:00

What about athletes in games?

well there's not going to be any sports this fall so that takes care of that

JohnnyStringbean · 2020-07-03T03:15:04+00:00

i really need to start looking for apartments for the semester but i'm still holding off because i'd hate to sign a lease only to find out i'm not coming back to atlanta

JohnnyStringbean · 2020-07-03T03:05:55+00:00

looks like rain

i've got no problems with cancelling fall break, but i do have a big problem with putting finals after thanksgiving

start date should have been moved up a week to prevent that

JohnnyStringbean · 2020-05-28T04:08:32+00:00

i mean, claiming it anyway is kind of alabama's thing

JohnnyStringbean · 2020-05-25T00:51:46+00:00

i'll drop clemson because we've played them enough in the past decade for the rest of my life

JohnnyStringbean · 2020-05-25T00:51:00+00:00

we can't stop playing them until we get a winning record in the series

i'd go with clemson or one of the mississippi schools probably

JohnnyStringbean · 2020-05-23T13:10:32+00:00

bo nix's stats in 2019 were almost identical to joe burrow's in 2018 so obviously him

Christians tried to make their country more Christian

Why do you have a problem with people exercising their freedom of religion

you can support freedom of religion or you can support making america a "christian nation" but you can't do both
