It likely is. Putin came to power by waging war. He needs a pretext for cementing his rule while his economy is stagnating. How about another useless ...

:grin: They actually don't breed in swamps. In Asia they breed in rain water that collects in the little cups formed by broken bamboo. Sounds lovely. ...

I read about some research that showed that even insecticide doesn't work for more than a few days. The little assholes are here to stay.

This is true. A democratically elected leader would try him for corruption. He can't go in that direction. Ever.

I'm going to have to ask you to stop war mongering and simmer down.

Did you call him "garden boy?" There's a thing called mosquito dunks. It makes the males sterile. I use them, but it doesn't help much.

Yep, it's tiger mosquitoes. We have West Nile virus here. I don't know how to kill them without also killing the honey bees. How did you kill them?

I've gotten fixated on them. I probably just need to accept them.

:grin: I didn't want to whine, but I've been struggling with mosquitos for the last few years. They're an aggressive Japanese kind. I've been trying t...

Spring is my favorite.

Are you happier in summer or winter?

The Russians should follow your advice and surrender. :grin:

It's pretty cold in Russia. They're not overjoyed. Something needs to be done about Africa and India. The UN should make a committee.

Well, there you have it.

You don't seem miserable. Do you just keep it all tucked inside?

I figure they're just high all the time. Look at that smiley face. Could be.

Yep. Recognizing that we live with contradictions might help us with clarity. Maybe.

I was recently reading about the concept of the ethical dilemma, specifically of the sort where a particular action is right and wrong at the same tim...

Oh. OK.

You mentioned my voting record, so, wut

Oh. No, he just ended it.

After. Liar.

Your point is that Biden didn't end the support quickly enough to avoid becoming partially responsible for the deaths of innocent people. I appreciate...

Biden ended the support for the war against Yemen. The support came from Obama and Trump. But yes. Some Irish people are scum.

I think you actually know it means to finance something. :rofl:

Of course. That was never in question. Biden is a Roman Catholic of Irish descent, BTW.

:blush:

I can't find the info on the discounted arms sale. Could you point me to it?

So that's a no. :chin:

Yes. You're partly responsible. We have two different narratives here. In one, the US finances a war crime. This suggests that the US had a particular...

Why can't we just get the facts straight? Is that a problem?

I disagree.

Of course. The Houthis are Shia, so Saudi Arabia doesn't need any prodding from the US to attack them. The shame is for supporting them while they did...

Yea. What you said was in line with what StreetlightX said earlier. Most of his posts contain outright lies. That was one of them.

Not financed by the US. Supported in other ways.

You could drink it with lint.

Navajos aren't Plains Indians. They live around the Grand Canyon. Plains Indians are usually Siouxan. What sort of property did Navajos have before wh...

That’s funny. There are quasi native people near me who say "youen" to mean "you all." Plains Indians weren't exactly matrilineal, but to the extent t...

Might be new onset schizophrenia.

Thank you. Thank you very much.

The Party is proud of you. See you at the Struggle Session.

Which nation?

I tried lapsang souchong tea the other day. Tastes like ashes. :chin:

I think it's valid with the premise that time accords with the way we usually imagine it. But there are other ways to imagine it and maybe some ways w...

It works well on both sides. "We're prepared for war because they are." The arms vendors win.

I'll put you down for the alien.
