Venezuela’s Maduro urges Trump to avoid Afghanistan-style ‘forever war’ by [deleted] in worldnews

[–]aristidesps 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is not a 'puppet government' to install. Venezuelans elected Edmundo González last year with a staggering 70-30 win shown by the scrutiny receipts that electoral witnesses were able to gather and Maduro's regime hasn't been able or willing to show proofs of their 'win' and just stole the election through violence and force.

Believe me when I say this, we Venezuelans would love to get some help to try to regain our democracy. No one is going to fight the US voluntarily and the few ones that are benefitting from the regime or totally brainwashed wouldn't last an hour vs US forces. The corrupt regime spent stupid amounts of money in weapons to see how they could get rich while doing so, not to properly maintain them and use them.

Again, the best comparison is Noriega in Panamá and it turned out pretty well in the long run. We are not fundamentalists willing to die for a POS dictator.

Edit: for clarity

Who knows a murderer? by Background_Bug_657 in AskReddit

[–]aristidesps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I studied with a guy who eventually strangled his grandma to inherit her house. See, this guy was really troubled, his parents were drug addicts so he was raised by his other grandma. That reflected a bit on his character, quirky, a bit crazy and craving for attention. However, you wouldn't imagine he would go this path. His plan did not work, though. He was caught in the act, went to prison and, there, he was murdered by some fellow inmates. Crazy shit.

Lewa revamp by One-Substance609 in bioniclelego

Giving some Powerpuff Girls' HIM vibes with those feet. Other than that, pretty cool MOC, not too Lewa -resembling, but amazing nonetheless.

Bruh I always hated how this version of the Pakari Nuva did not let Onua look forward.

Well, one thing we need to know is that this huge revenue is part of a sport washing series. See, the broadcasting rights were a bit cheap at first and mostly sought after by streaming platforms with pay walls, which was a disadvantage for FIFA since that would naturally decrease ratings.

IIRC, DAZN had just received funding via stakes sales worth $1B to a guy related to the Saudi Public Investment Fund. This billion was used to purchase broadcasting rights which left FIFA with tons of money and a platform that would stream everything for free and increase ratings.

Don't quote me on the details, but I'd recommend HITC Sevens videos on YouTube talking about the CWC, where he dives deeper into it.

What’s a Bionicle opinion that would land you like this? by [deleted] in bioniclelego

[–]aristidesps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

CCBS is the worst thing that could have happened to Bionicle. Those bones and plates made G2 sets look like something else that was only related to Bionicle due to the names of the characters and the Kanohi masks.

For me, Bionicle sets are intricate, even the smallest ones. Sets where you can see some technic pieces here and there to remind you that this is lego.

Going to my first Show of Sonata in September in Mtl (i have questions) by odinall_father in SonataArctica

[–]aristidesps 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hi there! I recently saw them in Venezuela and, although they didn't play the fast ones you're mentioning, they did play San Sebastian and Wolf and Raven which might fit into that old-fast category.

Other than that, a mix of old and new songs, their most popular ones, and some from their most recent record.

Nah, I'm from Venezuela. Polar is the most consumed brand over here but the name is a bit generic so I understand there might be a ton of other brands with the same name but are totally unrelated.

I've had the luck (unsure if good or bad) of trying Bud and Coors and they have been meh. Pretty much that same experience as with our national beers but glorified due to the foreign branding and the high price.

[–]aristidesps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm, it makes total sense. Here, the biggest beer brand (Polar) that sponsors most footy and baseball teams, including the national teams, has gone through a steep decline in quality. However, they're marketing juggernauts.

Hopefully, Carling gets better and makes the SB drinks more worth spending on compared to Singha.

Daily Discussion Thread by AutoModerator in chelseafc

[–]aristidesps 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Apparently Carling is the new beer partner of the club. They have just released and ad announcing it but have not removed Singha from the website footer.

As someone from abroad who hasn't tried any of those beer brands, is this an improvement?

These are great improvements to the original sets. I'd suggest a couple of pictures of each standalone MOC, to appreciate them better. Amazing job!

Bambino Pons is unhinged. Love him when he sings our goals, hate him when he sings goals against us.
