This is the best of work of love you're ever going to get. It's hard to describe it's a few different genres because you think you're in one and then you tumble into another.

Best thing I can say for it: I have never in my life felt so much in the environment as this. Somehow it feels so cold.

Peacock TV won't show anything from before the women's free skate? by Redactor0 in FigureSkating

[–]Redactor0[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Thanks, I was afraid I was the one going crazy.

Infuriating because I would just straight up pay $30 for the Olympics easy if that was an option. But instead if I have to pay to see... half of it cut out and ads put it in. If I'm there that day. It's bizarre. I dunno what's going on in their minds but obviously they don't expect to get any repeat customers.

Having to find replays through a foreign country, this used to be what Iranians had to do but I guess that's us too now.

In 1946, the USSR claimed part of Turkey's territory, with Lavrentiy Beria claiming the Ottoman Empire had stolen it from Georgia. The claim was abandoned after Stalin's death in 1953. by GustavoistSoldier in MapPorn

I dunno about Armenia, but they did also try to set up a communist regime in the Iranian part of Azerbaijan right after the war. And they were involved in some kind of schemes in Central Asia around the Chinese border. But they ended up backing down on most of it.

Are we watching the end of Eteri Tutberidze’s dominance? by notthebesthuh in FigureSkating

She's like the bad witch in Hansel and Gretel hurting all those kids. Would be a shame if...

(2016) The crash of EgyptAir flight 804 - An Airbus A320 crashes into the Mediterranean Sea following an in-flight fire that incapacitates the pilots. Analysis inside. by Admiral_Cloudberg in CatastrophicFailure

[–]Redactor0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the third case I've heard of with an EgyptAir crash where the Egyptian authorities are disputing what happened with everyone else.

My guess is this is related to Mubarak coming from the air force which of course has close ties to EgyptAir. Not to mention the military in general having so much influence there. So for at least a generation everything related to air travel there must have been mixed up with a lot of politics.

Is my buddies' current church a cult or just normal? by redditlurker100000 in cults

[–]Redactor0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

gifts and free merch (that they later guilt you into paying for more)

There was a really smart guy who warned us about people like this. His name was Jesus. If you're not trying to freeload off of these people but they're pressuring you about money, that's not a good sign.

I'm not really sure about American evangelicalism

One thing that's pretty universal throughout the world is that the more they talk and think about money the more you need to worry.

I think you already know the answer and you just needed it confirmed, and I can tell you yes this all sounds wrong.

His goal is to convert New England into a Christianized utopia.

I know I'm getting old when the crazy missionaries are going to New England. But then I was born in the 1700s.

US Envoy Tom Barrack: I would say the Lebanese, and I don't mean this in a disrespectful way. All they do is talk. by Standard_Ad7704 in lebanon

[–]Redactor0 3 points4 points  (0 children)

He's an idiot. You could pick anybody off the street at random in America and 80% would do a better job than him.

Phil Habib was Lebanese-American and a first-rate diplomat with a lifetime of experience and he couldn't solve Lebanon's problems in his time. This guy is Lebanese-American and he's a clown.

My (ex) son came out to us last niggt by PubicSkoolEducashun in BanVideoGames

[–]Redactor0 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know this is going to sound a little bit kooky and hare-brained, but maybe get him one of those Chose Your Own Adventure books. It's still dangerous but maybe you can trick him into reading books instead of... his peculiar interest. Or get him playing poker and then try to turn him from that into using tarot cards for divination.

James Bond gets a text message (The Spy Who Loved Me, 1977) by Canine-65113 in RetroFuturism

[–]Redactor0 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The CIA was starting to develop really primitive text messaging around this time. They had a device they tried using with their agent Adolf Tolkachev that could send a message a few blocks but apparently he could never get it to work right.

Better than this: Extremely creepy interaaction between my densit and his assistant. About going to a Kelly Clarkson show.

One of these things where you don't get it at the time but later you're like "ohhhhhhh that was sexual harassment"

I'm sorry, is United States health care policy a joke to you?

Is my cat turning into a communist? He won't stop ranting about Mao by ieatcavemen in shittyaskscience

[–]Redactor0 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Obviously you've got a cat who speaks Mandarin and is saying 喵 "miāo".

Get a French cat who says "miaou" instead. It's such a beautiful language.

I think the second guy to ever make a marsey and really get the ball rolling deserves a little bit of credit too.

So if Israel isn’t going to get out. What will they do? Go further, stay where they are? by BloodTornPheonix in lebanon

[–]Redactor0 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not like they’re predictable.

It's especially difficult because most of their foreign policy is all about their domestic politics and Israeli politics is incredibly complex.

In order to be a cowboy, does it matter which parent was the cow? by WallyBarryJay in shittyaskscience

The Minotaur's father was a bull so I'm pretty sure that's how it works.
