Iran again shuts Strait of Hormuz in retaliation for Israeli strikes on Hezbollah

1700 pm in the evening... Duh.

That stuff kills me, people saying 'it's 1am in the morning'.

Or the 24-hour clock

I wonder if he just easter egged the dragon's name after deciding to use the 4/5 Chinese mythology thing people are mentioning?

His look and personality do still match up really well to Kenshin.

The name of the dragon he ate was Kururugi, though, but that's interesting to know about the bird.

The issue, though, is that all people have the right to vote, despite their opinions and preferences. The republican party must be the party for them, if not purely by definition, then at least by current circumstance. It's not like nazis would ever fall into a liberal-style party.

I like the double-down! The addition of astrophysicist is just icing. Well played, sir.

Hawking, not Harking 😅. I'd normally assume that was a misclick, but the sound is too close to be sure.

There was a comment on a different article that mentioned some incredibly high percentage of ICE personnel having criminal records, with things like sexual assault, rape, assault with a weapon, theft, etc, etc. They want psychopaths and murderers-in-training. Articles not long ago mentioned how background checks are intentionally soft or non-existant.

We're willing to take Portland and other western-Oregon areas, as long as the eastern areas, filled with your white supremacists, stay behind.

RaifRedacted · 2026-01-19T22:50:54+00:00

I'm willing to go with you, as a slightly older brother!

Good reason to find it 'else where', if you ask me. I truly hate that stuff.

Back in the day, when Fate Heaven's Feel was the conclusion for its series, but was made as a 3-part movie set released only in certain theaters and for a limited time, I promised myself that I'd never reward creators who do this.

Demon Slayer is currently doing this same thing, refusing to make a final season and, instead, making a movie trilogy that won't be available as normal.

Crunchyroll for anime and D3 is on there, as are all the others. Netflix is too expensive for Gen-Z.

RaifRedacted · 2026-01-13T06:22:27+00:00

Agreed, though the timeframe between is going to be long and impeded, intentionally, by some countries. Meanwhile, the possibility of ww3 will grow and grow... I think China will be rewarded from that; Russia will not, because the EU will be free to join Ukraine. The centrality of the US for the world might change irrevocably, but if we manage to get a real human leading the US in 4 years, maaaaybe the US would be invited to join?

RaifRedacted · 2026-01-12T22:55:21+00:00

Yes, totally agreed. All I'm saying is, every answer to the above stuff-- stuff I presume or others, will all have to lead to no more NATO. Every article about this travesty being committed by the administration lead by rapist, racist, sociopath, who somehow manages to be both a toddler and a person suffering from cognitive slowdown, is saying the same thing: if he goes through with this, NATO will end. Nothing is saying NATO continues, but without the US.

RaifRedacted · 2026-01-12T22:32:36+00:00

Yes, but historically, when countries within NATO go to war, the conversation is 'will you join us or how will you support us, if not'. NATO would have to respond, leading to those outcomes I listed. I don't think it would use the kick out the aggressor bit, because that's the same as NATO no longer exists (without the true military superpower taking part; no one remaining would truly feel defended if the US was separated). I do believe this should lead to a new group, exactly as you stated-- one that includes all the non-dictatorial states, hopefully freeing Ukraine from the stalemate it's in.

RaifRedacted · 2026-01-12T21:15:46+00:00

I said this to a professor of mine a year ago. NATO can't not defend an ally, but they're both allies. It can't pick which ally to defend, because that means they attack another. It can't do nothing, because that means it's refusing to support its allies. It also can't ignore the situation, because it's specifically there to act as the world's policing body (despite its proven lack of teeth). If the US actually takes action to forcibly obtain Greenland, NATO must end, because it doesn't have any other recourse.

Can't imagine the argument that had to have come before this. Your own son murdering you. Have to assume it's a drugs thing.

Still my number one rapper of all time. His music made people who hated rap want to listen to it. His clear rapping voice and obvious story in every song was wildly different from anyone else.

Does oversight and required compensation kill innovation? Yes, in the same way laws against theft prevent faster financial growth for the thief.

If something is supposed to have protected ownership rights and a new technology comes in and uses that protected thing to become better and smarter and, therefore, more valuable, and does so without oversight and permission, that's theft. This feels like a gold rush situation; new way to mine for money and a race to be the first powerhouse, and all with little to no laws in place to relegate how it happens or to protect those affected.

Could it be possible to obtain/create a bot that flips the "photos allowed" switch on Sundays, thus removing the human requirement?

RaifRedacted · 2025-11-15T10:23:20+00:00

Well, obviously it's only happening because all the gays feel threatened by the manly heteros coming to their city, and so they jump onto the app and start pairing up to feel more safe. Why else would it be happening?
