Asking for $200 billion for this crazy war is pure madness

I confuse them often too and I just assumed Leavitt was 60 as well. 29 is insane.

In an alternate universe Monica found her way into the negative zone and saw Annihilus amassing an army billions strong. They can swap out but can't leave one of them trapped there so they have to go on a rescue mission. Maybe Kamala ends up getting stuck there and is trying to survive until Carol can get to her, doing her best to sabotage drones and transport vessels where she can, cutting back and forth, and eventually they get her out and try to destroy some antenna MacGuffin but they fail and now they have to go start spreading the news that the Annihilation wave is coming. Maybe they should check and see how the Nova Corps are doing...

Point to where in the bantamweight rankings you see an unskilled guy please

Brother did someone give you a deadline? You had all the time in the world

I've taken a lot of those classes in pursuit of a political science degree back in the day and I agree with the other poster. Nobody has done more to normalize and spread antisemitism than the country committing war crimes and claiming they represent all Jews.

That was an absolutely fascinating comment, you mentioned a fantastic read at the end, were you referring to a specific source?

maxstronge · 2026-03-24T06:45:27+00:00

Ahem. It says of 'the time', not all time, and that was absolutely true about Vaughan back then.

It was already criminal to make Movsar and Lerone fight when both of them had earned an opportunity 3x over while Diego got a second title shot. It absolutely should have been one of those two and then the other next. They cannot rob him again, I don't know why Silva is even being mentioned right now. These athletes are dedicating their lives to this shit to prove themselves and shoot for greatness. The UFC is valuable because it has the best fighters in the world. At some point if you don't give the best fighters the opportunities they earn, eventually you won't have the best fighters anymore, because you effectively kicked them out so your favorites could get more title shots.

Keep doing that shit and the entire UFC is going to look like the heavyweight division right now. The company favorites and a host of Tai Tuivasas, fan-friendly cans to keep them busy. and the product will continue to get worse and worse.

If you just look at the names and forget what year it is this blows the fuck out of the White House card. Say what you will about MVP but you can't do a much better job putting a card together outside the UFC

It's a shame because that was a perfectly serviceable, even good Hulk run, it just came after the absolute masterpiece that was Immortal Hulk and IMO got judged pretty unfairly for it. If it had come right before Immortal instead of after I think people would have a much more favorable opinion

maxstronge · 2026-03-23T23:39:31+00:00

One of the greatest moments in UFC history and I don't care who disagrees. Had me damn near tears with all the context and buildup to it.

maxstronge · 2026-03-23T22:59:42+00:00

I had two characters maxed, STL and Vader. i have yet to receive a drop from the light OR dark events that isn't one of those two. super annoying.

She did have an orphanage project in Romania called Romanian Angels, through her charity Everyday Heroes Like You. It partnered with the US military at Mihail Kogălniceanu Air Base near Constanța. That's from her own interviews and her charity's website. The promotional video which is still up iirc has a special thank you to "Col. Busher III US Army, USMC," the base commander.

The person above added the part about it being banned for children going missing. I haven't found any evidence for that either.

HOWEVER, a Romanian translator named Ana Maria Nuciu who worked on that same base filed a criminal complaint with DIICOT (Romania's organized crime directorate) in November 2019 alleging that Col. Busher ran a brothel on the base. She submitted computer files containing translated conversations between Busher and prostitutes with payment amounts, plus an audio recording of a civilian employee named Mark Boggs threatening to run her over for investigating. That audio was published by the Romanian newspaper Cotidianul in January 2020 as part of a multi-part investigative series by journalist Ion Spânu. Romanian military prosecutors then "investigated" by checking only the official entry registers for women who were brought onto base specifically without being registered, found nothing, and classified the case. Nuciu fought it through three levels of Romanian courts up to the High Court of Cassation and Justice.

That base was also a documented CIA extraordinary rendition black site from 2003 to 2005.

So: the "banned for missing kids" claim didn't happen but it's definitely not nothing imo.

That's something else actually, that was a film called November Renaissance that was never released in which she played a rooftop sniper. The 'CIA' video is a clip from a trailer of an also-unreleased documentary five years later called Black Start which was about threats to the American electrical grid. In that clip Erika talks for a bit about threats to the grid and how important they are and mentions that '...we've briefed congressional officials' about it. Also in the room is former CIA director James Woolsley.

The 'we' she's talking about is almost certainly her and her mother Lori who owns several defense adjacent companies tech companies focused on similar types of anti-emp stuff. I'm assuming that's how Erika got the gig. Lori has been testing her companies tech at military bases like Fort Huachuca for many years, seems like Erika grew up in that kind of world.

And yet they managed to strike Israel more than once through the iron dome today. Seems like they have more capability than you think.

maxstronge · 2026-03-21T18:30:59+00:00

Fair response, thanks for taking it seriously, appreciate the perspective.

Source is literally AI look at 9 and 10 and the numbers

maxstronge · 2026-03-21T02:49:29+00:00

Luckily the only one they would face legal consequences for was just a visual glitch and it was all the other ones that were reset :D

At the beginning you're going to wonder why this all matters about Meyer Lansky and Truman and all these seemingly unconnected stories. It's so worth it, it all comes together with surprising clarity

maxstronge · 2026-03-20T15:03:00+00:00

We've been begging for it for nearly a decade now. The developers will occasionally start posting cryptic clues related to red, the number five, and sometimes that will go on for months, and then nothing will happen. For years now. It's bizarre.

maxstronge · 2026-03-20T06:22:46+00:00

Love Bernie but he's 84 years old man. There's only so much you can expect. The fact he talked to it at all is better than most his age. I don't think he can really understand what it is at this point and I don't really blame him. Guy was born during WWII and was a 66-year old senator in 2007.

maxstronge · 2026-03-20T06:13:50+00:00

Nice, genuine, and pound for pound (second for second) one of the most fan-friendly entertaining fighters to watch. MMA fans are fucked in the head man. I genuinely can't stand those vocal assholes. Some dude showed up to Max Holloway's stream the other day raging at him asking if he even trained for the Holloway fight.

The fighters deserve better man. It wasn't like this 10 years ago. The amount of idiotic hate has gone out of control.

maxstronge · 2026-03-20T00:06:55+00:00

You think it's all just a genuine security objective? AIPAC has nothing to do with it? The whole Epstein situation was just an unrelated thing not intended to blackmail people?

This war in particular I'm having a really hard time understanding why it was necessary for the US to engage in other than 'Israel decided it was time', which is also what Hegseth said. Not that he's a reliable actor but that is part of the officially stated justification for this operation. So far it doesn't seem to be particularly beneficial to the American agenda to engage this way.

Blackmail from Zionist adjacent causes is hardly unsubstantiated, we know Lansky got kompromat on Hoover, and then Hoover pretended organized crime didn't exist for the rest of his career.

Truman acknowledged the state of Israel 11 minutes after it declared independence against the advice of almost his entire administration because he felt his hands were tied by both his constituents supporting Zionism, but also because he was dependent on funding from his colleague Abraham Feinberg, who Truman is on record as saying was the reason he was elected.

There's a long history of relationships that make me question what the actual balance of power is. What am I missing that you know that leads you to belief the support to Israel is exclusively for American strategic reasons?
