At about 2 a.m. last Tuesday, Republican Sen. Ron Johnson of Wisconsin stood on the Senate floor and explained why he opposed sending more aid to help Ukraine fend off the invasion launched in 2022 by Russian President Vladimir Putin....
Why is our military so huge? Why have we spent Trillions over decades?
In part to counter Russia for sure.
Now we have an opportunity to proxy war the shit out of them without risking American lives while preventing possibly worse escalation down the road should they win in Ukraine all while using old munitions and equipment that would be decommissioned anyway while increasing production at home and . . .
Nowadays I find a lot of games feel like too much work and/or anxiety when I just want to relax for like, 30 minutes to an hour after a long day. On the other hand, the games specifically designed to help you unwind just feel boring imo....
This doesnt exactly conform to a mixed review based answer but as far as missing out, check out Observer: System Redux.
Got it free from the Epic store. Not my usual genre. Like a horror cyberpunk detective game with wild visuals.
You track down a killer, using cybernetic implants to help you find clues and jack directly into peoples heads where you fall down the rabbit hole of their minds.
I dunno, I thought it was wild and unique and not main stream.
If you get it make sure It’s the system redux version, they added ray tracing and MASSIVELY upgraded the visuals and added some story.
We’ve spent Trillions to counter Russia overvthe decades.
To support Ukraine in a proxy war that weakens, destabilizes or destroys Russia where no American soldiers die and we get to test out our arsenal in a real world scenario is a worthwhile investment not to mention the moral and humanitarian aspect.
Do we have problems at home? Yes but that’s never been a good enough reason to reduce military spending.
I do think the military budget is out of control and more money should be appropriated to the issues that matter like healthcare but at this moment in time we should absolutely continue to support Ukraine.
We are the world leaders and other countries follow. We can’t let our support erode. We can’t let Russia win this one.
For most of my life, I’d used cheap leather wallets from places like Walmart and Kmart. Even with a small amount of cash and a few cards, I always felt they were quite bulky, and within a couple years would start to become frayed and tattered looking....
I’ve been using an All-ett wallet for about 15 years. Similar idea. I can understand why you’re so jazzed, slim wallets are great and you can carry them in your front pocket.
Ok, you have to try them with President brand butter. It’s a cultured butter from France. It’s the most buttery tasting butter my tastebuds have ever tasted. It’s all I buy now.
I’ve seen it at Publix and Walmart. If you can find it give it a try. It’s better than Kerrygold.
I like Arby’s. The roast beef sandwich with their Arby’s sauce, their beef and cheddar, even their chicken sandwiches. They are delicious. Their curly fries have no equal, and the potato cakes are great too.
This is a (slightly older) article about Nuclear Energy and climate change. It’s a hottly debated topic in climate communities, so I thought some of you would enjoy to read it....
I get your point but at this point I get more satisfaction simply progressing and completing rather than overcoming harder difficulties. It’s a trade off I guess but I have a huge anount of games I haven’t even played so I guess It’s quantity over quality given my free time and that’s ok, I can change the difficulty back at any time but yes, I’m sure it impacts the enjoyment from the gameplay itself.
I overcompensate for my subpar burger grilling skills by going all out with the fixings. Toasted sesame bun, cheddar, crispy bacon, ketchup, red onion, fresh jalapeno, tomato, romaine, mayo. Squash it down and chow it down.
