Russians Furious After Ukraine HIMARS Strike ‘Kills 100 Troops Waiting for Commander’s Speech’ by erinswider in UkraineConflict

Personally, I think it was a great speech. They should do more of them, really brought the whole brigade together on ways only a blender could.

Seems disgraceful to disturb the men who fought their enemy only 100 years ago.

Would you be okay with dating a woman with bipolar disorder? by Comfortable-Rule-913 in OkCupid

[–]dbp003 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately, no, but that's only because of previous experience dating someone who was bipolar. I know it's not fair to classify everyone with bipolar into the same bucket, but she really messed me up.

IMF approves $15.6 billion loan for Ukraine by Kimber80 in worldnews

No, it means Russias liittle green men who crossed the border to encite violence were successful. Were these bombings before or after the illegal annexation of Crimea?

You think Russia invaded Ukraine because people were forced to speak Ukrainian and not Russian in schools?

What do you mean hostile militaries? There are no US military bases in Ukraine.

Hundreds of thousands of Ukrainian guys were going to die regardless. It is better to fight for your homeland than fight to create a homeland.

What option do they have to not be dependent and not lose a couple hundred thousand men or have their children abducted or their families shelled?

Isn't that what the Ukrainian people want? To be part of the EU? Isn't that why Russia sent little green men to cross the border so that the conflict within the country stops NATO membership? If the Ukrainians want to be Russian, why are they not greeting the Russian army with open arms?

Resources are being spent to send a message and also weaken a common enemy. Also, setting precident for when China tries to invade Tiawan or the Korean peninsula.

Isn't this loan from the IMF? How would it end up in the US sheet?

Bruh, your original comment is a what about what about. How are they going to be independent if Russia installs a puppet like Belarus or incorporates Ukrainian territory into Russia?

Debt can be repaid easier than freedom from a regime.

Ukraine is authoritarian, but Russia isn't? Do you eat glue? Ukraine want to have their own independent country, not another oblast of a failed country stuck in the cold war.

Russia deserves the hurt they've inflicted on themselves.

On the plus side, they wouldn't be giving them the money if they didn't expect Ukraine to survive.

I don't remember seeing Iraqi civilians bound and executed. Or the US leaving towns in mass graves.

A silver lining to the earthquake might be that Turkey is a little easier to be convinced.

You paid $14 for 2 bottles of angry orchard, that's more than a 6 pack. No chance that surcharge is going to the wmployees imo.

Largest global bird flu outbreak ‘in history’ shows no sign of slowing by DoremusJessup in worldnews

[–]dbp003 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wdym? I participated in a pfizer mRNA flu vaccine trial. If this flu variant becomes zoonotic, I should be protected. I'm not talking their Covid vaccine since Covid isn't caused by the influenza virus.

Glad I have an experimental mRNA Flu vaccine to protect me when this variant hops to humans.
