@Y2John84 He died at a helluva young age!

In Memory of Kevin Peter Hall 9 May 1955 - 10 April 1991

@universalk63031 @TheNameofWar Stalin was impulsive and impatient so that does make sense it would piss him off.

@TheNameofWar Joseph Stalin was from an extremely poor family and served as alter boy for sometime because of his ultra religious mother , he hated being alter boy since sermons and rituals would go for several hours , sometimes up to 5 to 6 hours straight.

WWII leaders as children

@RonaldWhit95294 @TheNameofWar I think Hirohito definitely looked more like the bullied-type. Hitler may have been a harder case than he.

@TheNameofWar Hitler is the only one that looks like he was bullied

@avila74374 @TheNameofWar In what way, he was doing his path I guess right?

@TheNameofWar De Gaulle was no leader. He was a coward and a traitor.

@nunodosudoeste @TheNameofWar Was he the Portuguese wartime leader?

@TheNameofWar Getúlio was more a leader during WW2 than a WW2 leader

@PigFaece @MyLordBebo Nah

@MyLordBebo for her maybe cos she's trained well but for most women its just gonna get them beaten. they need to get away and raise alarm as first priority. if not poss use a weapon and go for throat.

7 May 1945 A Polish servicewoman in German uniform is checking the identity card of driver William Massey of the Royal Canadian Army Service Corps at the main gate of a German prisoner-of-war camp for female personnel of the Polish Army, located north of Haren, Germany. The Royal Canadian Army Service Corps (RCASC) was an administrative and transport corps of the Canadian Army and was established in 1901. The RCASC, along with the rest of the Army, underwent a rapid expansion as Canada mobilized for the Second World War. In addition to maintaining transport for the army on land, the RCASC also commanded and maintained a ship-borne freight and patrol company, the Pacific Command Water Transport Company, during World War II. The RCASC provided support to Canadian Soldiers wherever they went; training in Canada and Great Britain, the campaign in north-west Europe, and in the campaign in Italy. They moved supplies from the rear areas to the front-lines. It delivered all rations, ammunition, petroleum products, and all other essentials. They did so with a variety of vehicles ranging from three to ten ton trucks, and forty ton tank transporters. ColourisedPieceofJake

@RukuririT @25YearsAgoLive Before maybe, now there's way worse like the minigun AA tank,the Canadian skink etc

@25YearsAgoLive This guy is singlehandedly responsible for making my War Thunder games miserable.

German SS soldier Karl Wilhelm Krause, inventor of the Wirbelwind tank, dies at home in Germany. He was 90. During the 1930s, Krause and Adolf Hitler often snuck away to go out partying, and Krause personally delivered newspapers and breakfast to Hitler, as a friend rather than as a valet. At night, they would watch films together, sometimes as many as 5 or 6 each night. Krause recalled after the war that Hitler was attracted to Greta Garbo and enjoyed British adventure films. After the war, Krause only served one year in prison, then lived 55 years in peace.

@jollyheretic Restore more like, didn't take you for a Reform kinda chap Ed.

Remember when the BNP got a fair few councillors and they couldn't afford to be selective so cllrs did and said silly things and resigned? I hope Reform have learnt from that. The councillors shouldn't give any interviews to the media at all.

@MadKamikazius @WigglyCath A shame he did other more depraved things though going off what they are saying...

@RetroFutureLand @WigglyCath Nikocado Avocado, a guy who made "mukbang" youtube videos where he ate a lot of stuff on camera until he turned into a blob, had many crashouts, and everyone thought he'd die from being fat. Then he fixed his life and told people he was just trolling.

He became groyperously obese, shat his pants several times, had gay sex, took pictures of his hideous anus, and uploaded it all online. Clearly he got us super good.

@HomerPavlos Oliver Stone did Greeks better justice with Alexander albeit a bit lopsided in nature.

> Bald Menelaus > Batman-Agamemnon > Black Helen of Sparta > Black rapper poet > Transformer Achilles > Star wars body armor > Nigerian Goddess Athena > Films in Greece and changes the colors I'm Spartan and it hurts man, it really hurts. Why does Nolan hate us Greeks?

@Wiglaf4 @Politzania10 The whole thing or just parts of it?

@Politzania10 Seeing the Ring Cycle in the Opera House was a religious experience for me.

Germanic Pagans today should see Wagner and other Germanic romanticists more seriously and even take them to be an authority on religious matters, as their works are more accurate and devoted to the source than most would think. Wagner is the Skald of the modern age.

@KarlReiter5 @acteduweininger I'd like to think he sorted out his issues and found the feminine women better than dudes in his last days.

@RoguesPhilo He can't be American, there's no such thing as an archery license (unless he's just retarded means bowhunting license?)

@shining1977 @dfranke Just fix them wrenches bro

I have a large and unsorted collecting of tools from my father (and I suspect some from my grandfather). Wrenches and screwdrivers and such. Some rusted. I am seriously considering to throw them all away and buy a complete set of new tools. With cabinet. But I wonder: worth it? Or just make do with what I have.... Kinda don't really want to replace them,.but....

You buy a German anvil. It contains 83 moving parts and requires winding twice a day. It's forged from excellent steel, holds tolerances across all three striking faces to within three microns, includes a beautifully indexed horn-adjustment mechanism nobody asked for, and requires a proprietary 11-point spanner should you need to replace the rebound calibration bushing. It runs flawlessly for years, but one day it starts up in limp mode because the onboard anvil-management system detects that it's overdue for its 50,000-strike inspection. You search AliExpress for a Chinese anvil, and are presented with a multitude of offerings from such household-name brands as DUKXJYIBF, HDBTGMXI, AND UEJQIP. They're all priced to within a few pennies of each other, appear completely identical except for the nameplate, and obviously all came out of the same factory. You text your blacksmith friend to ask if they're legit. He tells you he got one like that from KIXJBU a few years ago, and that it's been great and a terrific deal. You thank him, but KIXJBU seems to have folded so you buy the one from UEJQIP. When it arrives, it feels suspiciously light. You scratch it and realize it's iron-plated aluminum. You buy an American anvil. It's five times the price of the competition, but it comes from a brand that your great-grandfather used to love. It comes boxed with a warranty registration postcard, twenty pages of safety instructions, assay certificate, and a regulatory slip which lists its FCC certification and ITAR registration. It looks just like your friend's KIXJBU. There's a "Made In China" sticker on the bottom. You buy a Russian anvil. It arrives coated in cosmoline, wrapped in newspaper from 1974, and weighing 40% more than advertised. The finish looks like it was machined with a shovel. The face is not flat, but somehow this does not matter. You drop it off a truck, accidentally leave it outside for six winters, and use it to straighten a bulldozer blade. It's fine. You buy a Swedish anvil. It comes flat-packed in a long cardboard box with cheerful Neo-Grotesk lettering and a line drawing of a smiling man assembling it with an Allen key. The instructions contain no words, only pictograms showing the anvil face, horn, waist, feet, and 112 identical-looking fasteners. Halfway through assembly, you discover that the pritchel hole was installed upside down, but only because you used peg B17 where you should have used peg B71. Once assembled, it is clean, stable, and works better than it has any right to. You immediately wonder whether you should have bought two. You buy a Japanese anvil. It arrives wrapped in rice paper inside a paulownia box, accompanied by a certificate bearing three generations of signatures and a photograph of the first production example being presented to the Emperor. The face has been hand-polished by a seventy-eight-year-old master whose family has made striking surfaces since the Muromachi period. You are given detailed instructions for oiling it with a cloth folded in a specific way. It is the most beautiful object you own. You never quite work up the nerve to strike it.

@WulfenGrom @dfranke Do they ship to Euroland or are sanctions gonna cockblock it?

@dfranke All I heard was "Russian anvil". And yes, you'd be lucky to own one. You grand-grand-grand children will still be using it. For the intended purposes. 50k rubles is 662$ btw. And that's the top models:
