We have sold the same glass of lemonade back and forth between eachother 8 million times so somehow we both have negative tax rates now!
Capitalism drives innovation!
The innovation:
Bad things happening to crypto bros and zionists? This is wholesomeness squared

I feel like too few people truly grasps the body horror of teeth. Those fuckers are terrifying.
When I went to university, our lecturer would literally pass around a flash drive with the ridiculously overpriced textbook he was the author of. He was a cool guy who had the extremely valuable skill of turning a dull subject interesting.
Taking back control from the guys who actually won the election.
Good. The inherent violence in the relationship makes it fundamentally impossible for a prisoner to consent to sex with a prison guard.
I don’t know the details of how the US legal system works but isn’t a plea bargain essentially the same as a settlement in civil cases?
If so, it should (at least in theory) have very little prejudicial value since the courts did not rule on the question if Assange’s culpability.
I know that in the real world the US regime once again learned that it can get away with murder and journalists all over the world have already learned the lesson that the evil empire will fuck them up if they air their dirty laundry. But from a legal nerd point of view a settlement should be quite useles as a precedent.
Everybody will know that this is a forced confession anyways so who cares?
I vaguely remember playing it a little back in the day
Taiwan is China, even the separatist regime in Taipei agrees on that.
When I’m reading the dinosaur book with my four year old they always point at the brachiosaurus and say that it’s me, so that’ll be my favourite dinosaur.
I hate to be a killjoy but I wonder how many of the people who answered “Yes the war has killed or injured hundreds of thousands of people and it needs to stop” really meant to say “Yes the war has killed [etc…] and it must stop with a negotiated settlement resulting in the unconditional surrender of Russia”.
Lots of commotion internally in Denmark while the reaction would be decided upon in Washington.
I don’t think Russia wants to retaliate so directly though. As I see it they have very little to gain from taking that bait. More likely acts of retaliation would be plausibly deniable cyber attacks or supporting some proxy in attacking Danish interests abroad. If I was a Danish troop in Iraq, I would be watching my back after this.
The problem with the Danes is that they have been so sheltered for so long that the concept of their actions having consequences simply don’t register any more. Everything is going to be welfare, roast pork and padding ourselves on the back for all eternity, war and disaster and calamity is something they have in “the warm countries”, it will never affect us.
In Danish we have “you can’t cut the hair off a bald guy”
Temu is not nearly as interesting for US oligarchs as TikTok. If they manage to steal TikTok, the tech oligarchs just have to run another app but if they steal Temu they suddenly have to deal with the logistics of shipping dirt cheap physical products to people.
I’m shivering imagining how cursed the content on the EU branded social media apps was. I’m having nightmarish visions of Eldritch horror levels of neoliberal cringe.
