I mean, tindr for hitmen would obviously be murdr.
Even Yanukovich had been trying to push for EU membership, AKA the guy who was the target of the so-called coup you're bitching about. He had to shift gears when Putin's attitude changed and he could no longer split the two, but the whole "euro" part of Euro Maidan was about the sudden shift away from the EU.
Nah, the extra absurdity of using Microsoft SAM might unintentionally make something actually funny.
On the other hand, by the time you're spelling billion with a "B" any appreciable fraction of that is still going to be enough money to functionally remove you from the normal economy. Too big to fail in that even if all the bullshit collapses they'd still probably have more money than God.
Ooh! Is that a segue to talk about the environmental damage caused by releasing the heated coolant water into rivers and streams that aren't supposed to be that hot?
Is he more divorced than Elon these days? I didn't think that would be possible
Gee, I wonder if there were any major shake-ups in the Ukrainian government circa 2014 that could have explained this change in tune.
Ukraine wasn't able to join NATO because of active territorial disputes regarding Russia's 2014 illegal annexation of Crimea. The 2022 invasion and intervening Russian-backed fighting in Donestk and Luhansk were naked imperial land grabs trying to force Ukraine back into the Russian sphere of influence despite their democratic processes repeatedly trying to move towards the EU.
Or in simpler terms, imperialism is actually still bad when Russia does it and it's weird that you don't seem to understand that.
Just reminds me of this:
Like, if the current world isn't giving you sufficient free reign to change the world with your money then the problem isn't that you need more freedom the problem is that you keep demanding even more power.
Dumpster Fire Elemental?

It's weirdly open about its nostalgia for the good old days when you could throw around racial slurs and watch porn at work with no consequences.
I'm also glad to see that whatever incremental improvements have been made the system is still unable to consistently do hands.
Attempt 2 got all the way to the part about Scott before I had to come up for air.

The defense of Wikipedia's preference for policy over basic human decency in the Chelsea Manning name change was once again left entirely implicit.

This is probably for the best because otherwise David's insistence on reliable sources over letting LWers do their own hagiography on Wikipedia's letterhead is much harder to criticize.

Is Neoreaction: a Basilisk a bit of a woozle/citogenesis? Maybe? But are we going to argue about the central factual claims it makes? Nope. There's no attempt to dispute the overlap between NRX and Ratdom, just an un-argued assumption that nobody should care enough to put it in their Wikipedia article. I swear, you build ten thousand bridges and nobody cares but you repeatedly speak favorably of actual fascist's attitudes on race science on your large and influential platform and everyone loses their minds.
Edit because man who can remember how to do formatting?
On one hand, being here means that I've had to learn to parse this description in order to understand what we're talking about. On the other hand now that I have this cursed knowledge I'm pretty sure my presence here is necessary for my continued mental health, such as it is.
This must be how people end up in one of those outer-god-summoning cults.
I tried to actually put it to the tune but it only barely scans, to say nothing of how impossible to follow it is if you dont already know the story. If you're going to express your terminally online frustration through a lousy parody song I'm going to insist that you put in the effort to do either the parody part or the song part well.
Yeah, I always hated the part of art and storytelling where there was always a tiny and sometimes misshapen window into the human soul there. Better to do away with that and replace it with an endless parade of #sponsoredcontent. That way there's no risk of suddenly developing empathy or accidentally connecting with the people I'm exploiting as a billionaire VC.
I'm always shocked to see someone to Milkshake Duck themselves this hard within a single post.
I wonder if anyone has worked out an economic model that treats this kind of lockup as though the money had been just literally lit on fire. Be interesting to see what that does to the money supply and whether it could help discredit the monetarist position on inflation.
You know, I would expect the at-a-glance symbolic information to be more useful just from sheer accessibility. But I never would have expected them to be more accurate and rigorous than the detailed safety sheets.
See, in StarCraft we would just say that the meta is evolving in order to accommodate this new strategy. Maybe Go needs to take a page from newer games in how these things are discussed.
In addition to the lack of fascism, I think that the attitude towards shitposting here creates a much healthier social environment. Like, your shitpost may serve to inspire a serious comment but you're also allowed to just spout off because you think it's funny or you need to get a emotional response out of your body or whatever.
