Yeah Trump campaigned on deporting criminals. Currently that makes up just 1 out of every 5 of those being detained for deportation.

Yeah this entry authorization will not, and should not, stand. I’m sure suits to stop this are already filed

Those remarks were not just awful, but completely false.

I think if everyone saw what was really happening (or again, just go on reddit) absolutely no one would think they're doing about right or not enough. It's appalling.

Why wouldn't the election be fair? We have a President who is the biggest champion of free and fair elections as long as he wins.

@Doctor-Phibes Disgraceful. As posted in the other thread, Blair should immediately resign from Trump’s peace scam. https://www.ctvnews.ca/canada/article/we-were-the-frontline-canadian-veterans-outraged-by-trumps-nato-comments/

Always found his interviews interesting. He's insanely calm and candid, borderline autistic, about what he's doing, the dangers, the risks, the ease (to him). His wife has often asked him not to do certain climbs but he does it anyway, I guess she knew that when she married him.

An acquaintance of mine in Kyiv just sent me the following status update via FB Messenger: I have power. I'm fully charged on all my devices and I'm as charged as I can be to deal with the other realities of life. Some time ago I wrote that Putin calculates one more massive missile strike to kill civilians and we'll tap out. And he was wrong. He's calculated that he can freeze us out this winter and we'll capitulate. He's wrong. It's hard to be in Kyiv now but the temperatures will warm and the ice will melt and we will still not have fucking capitulated.

For the adventurous gourmet cooks here it those interested in a wholly different trip: Every year, doctors at a hospital in the Yunnan Province of China brace themselves for an influx of people with an unusual complaint. The patients come with a strikingly odd symptom: visions of pint-sized, elf-like figures – marching under doors, crawling up walls and clinging to furniture. The hospital treats hundreds of these cases every year. All share a common culprit: Lanmaoa asiatica, a type of mushroom that forms symbiotic relationships with pine trees in nearby forests and is a locally popular food, known for its savory, umami-packed flavor. In Yunnan, L. asiatica is sold in markets, it appears on restaurant menus and is served at home during peak mushroom season between June and August. One must be careful to cook it thoroughly, though, otherwise the hallucinations will set in. https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20260121-the-mysterious-mushroom-that-makes-you-see-tiny-people

I took the shell off my racing snail, thinking it would make him faster. If anything, it made him more sluggish.

@LuFins-Dad said in Invading Greenland - suicide.: ... I find it highly unlikely that every western intelligence agency was that far off, and the fact that each and every one wasn’t dismantled and built back up from scratch supports that. Beyond that, Hussein was a terror supporter, was in extreme violation of the ceasefire, and was playing FAFO games with the inspectors. Kim/North Korea and Khamenei/Iran are similar, doesn't mean you need to invade them.

Yeah I would enlist my son for that

Taking into consideration materials used, I still give it only a GCSE grade D

I was pretty proud of myself, but realistically, with the amount of time and effort it took (plus the "wholesale" cost of the battery, next time I will just take it to a shop and have them do it. LOL
