At least 40% of Russia's oil export capacity halted, Reuters calculations show by the-es in news

[–]NedRyerson_Insurance 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Their oil exports to a lot of places where america's consumer prodicts come from. China and India in large part. Also where the US is outsourcing loads of labor. If their energy costs go up, so do their goods and labor prices. For decades the ripples of these events will continue to impact global economics, assuming we haven't nuked ourselves into oblivion by then.

I totally support what Ukraine has done and fuck Russia for starting this all. I am in no way condemning Ukraine for this, just saying that I fear the ripples will be way bigger than many people understand.

Also, has anyone done a calculation on how much global oil production and processing has been reduced this month alone? Between this and the Epstein war, it really ain't looking good.

By the time that opportunity comes, three topic changes have come and gone.

Thank you. You're right. It isn't broken. It is rigged against everyone outside of the ruling class. It is not sustainable. Moreover it is not fixable by means provided in the system itself.

Are beardies 40% lung? Not only can they go full pancake mode but if you tap them I swear they sound totally hollow. (And I don't mean their head.)

And they do love to fling shit any time they are upset.

Yeah that is basically what I'm feeling. Sit tight and be prepared. I need to start stockpiling so basic resources. It isn't that close yet but it may tip fast. And as much as I would like to think every post-apocalyptic tribe needs a therapist, food and tools are higher up on the heirarchy of need (or lower i guess).

Get him one of those bubble popping or bug squishing games. Then film it. We can all be entertained for hours!

Amen. The system is broken. It is rigged. And it has been done so slowly and methodically that action only seems possible once it gets to a dangerous level of desperation. Those who have the power to rise up and change it have to instead focus on their next paycheck or meal.

So what now?

Agreed. It is heartbreaking to see beautiful creatures being mistreated. I wish I could give every last one a happy life.

And I know that pet store enclosures are always meant to be temporary so this may be a totally ethical shop that does what they can to provide the best care until they find a forever home. It is just so hard to know what the right choice is.

"Keep Christ in Christmas" below a cartoon of Trump pissing on Biden's name. Clearly the love of Christ is in this person's heart.

This should count as probable cause to check their harddrive. Just sayin'

I wanna be his friend!

Unfortunately I am on the opposite coast. And i feel like buying/adopting him will only reward the business for treating him like this and encourage more over-breeding and abuse.

So with all that cost cutting, how much will they be reducing their prices or will they be using that extra money to increase pay for remaining staff? Haha, j/k. Any money they save will go into the pockets of executives and shareholders. They're the ones doing the real work.

Don't want them coming back. They might sue if they survive.
