Kaja Kallas is saying out loud what many European leaders quietly understand:
A united Europe is one of the few entities on Earth large enough to resist pressure from Washington, Moscow and Beijing at the same time.
That’s exactly why extremists, oligarchs and foreign influence networks work so hard to keep Europe fragmented, paranoid and internally divided.
Empires prefer neighbors.
Not rivals.

@LuftkoppTim @Nomoreultra Have you ever heard of a place called Florida? Or Hawaii? Or Louisiana? Or the entire Gulf coast of Texas? We also have a state with more than a thousand lakes. Please think next time.
English
@Nomoreultra I live nowhere near the coast, only a few dozen kilometers away from the Czech Republic, virtually in the center of Europe and are basically constantly at around 50-70%.
Sure there are regions that are lower. But on average it's way higher than in the US for example
English
People just often forget that Europe has a way higher humidity than many other places.
Sure we "only" have like 30°C max most of the time but the thing is that we get this with like 60-70% humidity.

i used to think europeans were being dramatic about their heat because it’s normal over here until i actually went to europe

I don’t think New Yorkers should try to “pull up” anywhere down south…
I dont think they’d like how it ends.

@ReviewsPossum I would have also accepted: because they frequently crash out the same way irl

For the same reason horror protagonists are usually women: because audiences are more likely to sympathize with them.

Hey @grok why is the victim of demonic possession in movies usually a woman?

@kimmie_c_ Where do the studios keep getting money to make these flops?

Paramount is developing a new Godfather sequel from a "woman's point of view." It's called "Connie," a feminist retelling of the Godfather events from Connie Corleone's perspective based on a novel of the same name. Why do feminists keep doing this kind of thing?

@revenant_MMXX In my country the property price to income ratio from 1980 up untill around 2000 was 3-4x the median household income
It's now 8-9x the median household income in recent years.

If you got a $5 coffee every single day (which nobody does) that'd be about $1800
If you got it every work day, 5 days/wk, 50 weeks/yr, that'd be $1250
If nobody ever got $5 coffee, coffee shops would all close and rich people would blame Millennials & Zoomers for that too
dank@cptdankkk
Kevin O'Leary says most people waste $15,000 a year on stupid stuff like $5 coffees "Stop buying coffee for five dollars and fifty cents" "You go to work and you spend $15 bucks on a sandwich, what are you an idiot. It costs you 99 cents to make a sandwich at home and bring it with you" "Bring your own water, your own drink or your own coffee mug. You start to add that up every day it's a ton of money" "Most people starting on their job making their first $60,000 piss away about $15,000 a year"

@OrevaZSN The ROI is shit. Government excels at two things and two things only: violence and writing checks with other peoples' money. That's why it should be as small as practicable.

@Globalist200 @AnatoliUkraine @grok Intent and effect are often two different things. I hope for your sake that you are correct, but the lesson of Damocles is often forgotten.

@BadRoboMojo @AnatoliUkraine @grok I think you will find its the formation of the EU because it was specifically formed with the intent of ending conflict on the continent.

@KIRONewsradio If you don't want dangerous idiots at city council meetings, then stop electing them to office!

Seattle City Council President Joy Hollingsworth is asking SPD to have two officers at every Seattle City Council meeting. She stopped by the Gee & Ursula Show to explain exactly why.

@SpudCannon3000 @Karai_Dan One doordash order could buy enough pots, pans, dishes and cutlery from a thrift store to cook basic food for the next ten years. We've just normalized helplessness in our culture.
English
People know it’s cheaper and healthier to cook at home. It’s that it takes capital to cook at home. Some people don’t realize cooking at home is a luxury in itself.
There are people so poor, they don’t have pots and pans, let alone dishes and spoons / forks. Or the soap and sponge to clean them.
English
So I guess the easiest way to piss off American zoomers is to tell them it’s cheaper to meal prep than eat at restaurants or order delivery.
The amount of crashouts I’ve seen today is mind boggling and a little worrying. I hope young Americans aren’t this helpless IRL.

@Illoath "No one thought how they would get through the week on a paycheck"
Please tell me you're not this stupid
English
I'm not "defending" Taco Bell I'm pointing out that 20 years ago and all way back to about 1956 no one even thought about how much food cost and how they would get through a week on their paycheck and everyone older than me is fucking lying about it now.

🚨 SECRETARY MARCO RUBIO GIVES A NO-NONSENSE ANSWER ON RACISM CLAIMS AGAINST INDIANS
A reporter asked Rubio about supposed “racist comments coming from the US against Indians.”
He replied without hesitation or apology:
“Every country in the world has stupid people. I’m sure there are stupid people here.”
“There are stupid people in the United States that make dumb comments all the time. I don’t know what else to tell you other than the United States is a very welcoming country.”
“Our nation has been enriched by people who come to our country from all over the world, have become Americans, have assimilated into our way of life, and have contributed greatly.”

The people telling you to povertymaxx and eat bread sandwiches so you can afford a used car are just plain wrong. Even as far back as the 1800's people were averaging 3,000 to 5,000 calories a day.

@starsandtigers I am reacting to stupidity. If they want to give me a cool title I'll gladly take it!

@mgiannopoulos @AmericaPartyX Literally didn't happen. People who screwed themselves in other ways blamed their unfortunate departure on social media to hide the fact that they lied on their visa application. Such as doing work here without a visa or admitting to drug use after signing that they didn't.
English
@BadRoboMojo @AmericaPartyX You are not an entire country. Neither is Trump.
English
@mgiannopoulos @AmericaPartyX I'm very welcoming, but if you piss and moan about me on social media I don't want you coming over to visit. Don't be a two-faced asshole and you can come in 😘
English
@AmericaPartyX "the United States is a very welcoming country" - That's hilarious coming from a representative of a country that wants to read your social media posts before coming in for a simple trip.

@MarkWarnerVA We have a republican party with a backbone, dumbass. It's called MAGA and its the only version that's done a goddammed thing for voters this millennium.
English
I’m proud of my reputation as a bipartisan legislator, but as long as we have a Republican party full of Trump acolytes, and until we get a Republican party that’s willing to find a backbone, we’ve got to win decisively in November.
