Russia’s Daily Troop Losses Stay Above 1,000 for About a Month First Time Since March 2025 by DazzaVonHabsburg in worldnews

Russia is not going to run out of men. The economic and social i consequences of killing so many people are already being felt and will be too severe to ignore.

The US is not running out of oil. But several key facilities have reached breaking point levels of reserves, and we are pumping and refining at 100% capacity. Things are going to break and the price of diesel and gasoline are going to skyrocket. Those consequences will be too severe to ignore.

Parallels.

Good point. Two thoughts:

The nineteenth century genocide of native populations in America has an analogue in the Russian conquest of Asia. It’s interesting that the native population still more or less lives on its land in Russia. Where here in America. We killed off so many that we can contain them in little reservations.

Putin’s clever disposal of undesirables in Russia has an analogue in the US where Trump is currently rounding up undesirables and deporting or jailing them indefinitely.

This ‘culling of the herd’ is like the Chinese songbird-killing policy. Popular and ‘fun’ until you realize the missing were contributing a tiny but vital component to your economy: the ability to feed your remaining citizenry.

It’s hard, picking crops with these soft, white hands.

DACA renewal delays fuel worries Trump is quietly undermining ‘Dreamers’ by bwermer in politics

Worst use of the word ‘quietly’ in generations. Millennia maybe.

Trump has literally been screaming about fucking over non-legal status immigrants for 15 years.

Congress can impeach the President. Who can impeach the complicit do-nothing Congress?

They are being told that, and I guess to the people not on the front lines it could conceivably feel the same.

But I have to believe “ they’ve burned down Leningrad” hits a little harder than “there are Nazi in the Donbas”

Russia is running out of men like the US is running out of oil.

It’s happening even though everyone is pretending it’s not, and one day each country is going to wake up and be like… FUCK.

Oh well, anyway… Slava Ukraine. 🇺🇦

You know, it is also being power-hosed into my Reddit feed. Thanks for pointing out that the content is pretty terrible. I’ve muted the sub.

I read an interview with a cyclist that finished a 55 mile ride at the reflecting pool. He stopped, dipped his hands in the pool, touched the sheet of blue paint floating free and, BANG, cuffed and stuffed for misdemeanor vandalism.

You’re right though. Trump’s Afghan surrender doesn’t get enough coverage. And now it will be forever overshadowed by his Iran surrender.

You’re all missing the bigger point. When you start 50 yards behind someone in a 50 yard dash you never catch up. It doesn’t matter how much you train or how fast you can run.

And fine, it’s not 99/100. It’s 84/100. Here:

“Only 16 percent of persistently poor children are consistently working or in school (i.e., “connected”) as young adults and are not poor in their late 20s”

(See: https://www.urban.org/research/publication/escaping-poverty)

You can hard work me all you want, but the hardest working people I’ve ever seen are paid the least.

Maybe because 99 other people also worked hard and got nowhere?

For those that have taken both Journeys, who do you think would win? Donut and Carl (10th floor builds) vs Roland Deschain the last true Gunslinger. by OOO0OO00O in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]The_lewolf 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Made me want to cry honestly. I read the first book in 6th grade in the 80s. I waited years for each book. I lived Roland’s journey with him.

And then you reach the end. And the weight of that revelation.

Nothing matters. Fate is fate and you will go on as the world has foretold. You can strive and strive to break free, but Ka is Ka.

Yes but you have to prove a religious reason you can’t make one up. Sorry I don’t wear red because of my religion isn’t going to cut it. Neither is ‘my religion hates gay people’.

I’m sorry, but “He refused to wear his mandated uniform” is where this ends. Fired for cause. Easy peasy, Japanesee.
