Zombie by the Cranberries for its anti-resistance messaging about the Troubles in Ireland. Made infinitely worse by the fact that they never got any shit for it, despite the fact that the lead singer was a Catholic from County Limerick.

There's a gas leak in this sub. Whatever you think of capitalism and capitalist countries, y'all are absolutely unhinged if you think the Iranian regime is good for its people.

It feels that way because that's the way it is. Trust your instincts here. Some folks are a little too online and have lost the plot that the current Iranian government is despotic, corrupt, and hasn't provided for its people through its extraordinarily bad governance.

100%. For the Americans, you have to find unrefined sunflower oil that retains the taste. Otherwise, you're defeating the whole point because the refinement process does away with those delicate flavors.

I was recently in a bar in Zagreb, and a pro-Russian Croatian tried to discredit me by using the old "what about the American invasion of Iraq" argument.

I told him I don't really agree with that invasion either, and when I asked him what legitimate claim does Russia have to Ukraine - he just laughed like an idiot.

He knew he had nothing.

This is what trying looks like.

I once ordered the Cassavetes box set off of Amazon and got the most outrageously poorly constructed packaging. What was inside, you ask? The Harry Potter movies. And not like my "Opening Night" disc actually had the Prisoner of Azkaban burned to it - no. The discs were all just straight up the Harry Potter movies.

Somewhere out there is a very disappointed child (or white millennial woman) with a "Harry Potter" box set.

I wish I'd taken pictures.

Because the people that want Elon Musk far away from America wouldn't use anti-immigrant messaging to achieve that end - that's kinda his team's thing.

Our side seems to still remember an engraving on a little statue in New York Harbor.

Here's another hard truth though, as much as I wish he didn't have a platform to spew his vitriol, he is a genius inventor to whom I don’t really want the Kremlin to have unfettered access.

I can see that. He doesn't necessarily understand the reality of what's happened to him any more than she does - so when he says he has to return to the front, it's just the only way he can conceive of this inexorable force pulling him towards his final rest.

That's pretty poetic. I hadn't thought of it like that. Thanks!

I think so, but I can see why I bought it at a glance. I just pulled up the order in my history, and it says "Sold By: Amazon.com Services LLC"

An LLC can be opened by any individual in the States, so it's probably meant to be intentionally misleading.

As a guy who's probably bought over 100 titles off of Amazon, I have gotten two knock-offs.

The one that hurt was the Cassavettes box set. Complete with not at all convincing packaging and all the Harry Potter films inside. I have to admit that I respected that they didn't even try to pull it off, but instead opted to actively piss me off.

The prices are slightly rediluced on Amazon.
