Permanently embarrassed millionaire

@reivanen @AnalyticaCamil1 Yes, but ~160k men was never enough to hold all that territory, hence the relatively successful counterattacks in 2022 before Russia mobilized properly. I'm sure the hope was to have the whole thing sorted within a month with minimal bloodshed on both sides, and this is plan B.

@WonderNine5 @AnalyticaCamil1 Russia stopped because they reached an understanding with EU and kiev to get a settlement. As predictable as the sun rising after night, EU and kiev betrayed that promise and made the conflict last 100 times longer.

Genuinely, just cut this shit out. This is the same variety of jingoistic hubris that lead to the Russian military getting its teeth kicked in 30km outside of Kyiv. 99% of USMC’s successful reputation is a product of its very smart and very aggressive war planners (arguably the best in DoD), and I can almost guarantee to you and everyone else that they’re looking at this proposed operation and trying their best not to look at the White House and tell them to “go fuck yourselves with a rusty pipe.”

@MocaIsSoLoca Yeesh you weren't kidding

all this build up to reveal the ugliest creature known to man

@AnalyticaCamil1 I doubt the usmc is going to do something that risky when the US is willing to pour infinity billion dollars at the problem

@AnalyticaCamil1 To actually win outright and promised if Ukraine could hold out a few weeks and mobilize, Russia would have to back off and we'd send them all the supplies and money and munitions theyd need to win, and Russia would probably collapse. It was a failed gamble

@jerseyh0mo They'd still be hungry and meta still wouldn't have a vr metaverse anyone wanted to use lol

I forgot about this stupid shit but imagine if they poured $80 billion into feeding the hungry instead of this failed cartoon universe that nobody wanted

@JeremyPaup18218 @GoUncensored @goddek See above?

@GoUncensored @goddek Then why do they keep openly saying Noone can keep them from nuclear weapons? Im confused

So Iran has hypersonic missiles, cluster munitions, the most advanced, war ready and cost efficient drone model on the planet and they've effectively been fighting 6 countries at once for 3 weeks with a yearly budget of $10 billion. and we're supposed to believe they never figured out how to build nuclear weapons? Nonsene. If Iran wanted a nuclear weapon, they'd have one. They don't and never did. Joe Kent's telling the truth, they literally voted against developing them in 2004. "Iran must NEVER get a nuclear weapon" is the "Saddam Hussein has weapons of mass destruction" of 2026. This entire is treasonous and based on a total lie.

@agilofingr @theepicmap Now we're cooking with gas

@theepicmap This may sound a bit radical, but I have another idea

@theepicmap Bloons td6 ass lookin map smdh

@mike_lorne @GAMERTAGVR @boztank Is it though? Isn't it basically persistent VRchat tied to your real identity so you can be advertised to? What about that has appeal to what userbase?

@GAMERTAGVR @boztank This is better. A lot of people poured their hearts into Horizons World. It’s a great concept. Just needs visionaries to drive growth.

During @boztank AMA on Insta, Horizon Worlds isn’t shutting down on June 15th. It will reverse back into being an app (uninstall if you wish) & existing worlds/games built on the Horizon Unity engine are still playable in VR. This a win. The Horizon community keep their app and anyone not interested can carry on without it. This is how it should have always been. A choice 👍

@GAMERTAGVR @boztank I don't know what demographic this promotional image appeals to but it isn't mine lol

@thinkingshivers @rock is this true?

China may be beating us in batteries, but the United States has TWICE as many rocks as China does. Why not simply use those to store gravitational potential energy by hoisting them high up?

@ComesMilitaris @Clint_Davey1 And then what would happen? Obviously the US could steamroll the Iranians and occupy Tehran if it were committed to the idea, but that would just be the start, same as the last two times.

@Clint_Davey1 The US shouldn't invade, but this is silly. Iraq in the 80s almost took it. Iran was stronger then.

Sure, if you do a land invasion and try to occupy the whole country.

I am once again thinking about Fry’s Electronics

@eraopas @rinalu_ As of literally within the lifetime of a majority of its inhabitants, lol

@rinalu_ Kyiv is Ukraine, not Moscovia. So it’s up to the Ukrainians to decide how to spell and pronounce.

Kiev was not the first capital of Rus’ (Russia). The first was Ladoga, followed by Novgorod. Russia uses the Cyrillic alphabet, so “Kiev” is simply the English form of «Киев». “Kyiv” emerged in 2005 as a political spelling game. For centuries in English it was Kiev, matching the Russian pronunciation. - In Byzantium: Kiow, Kiovia, Kyou. - In 2005, the UN officially adopted “Kyiv” at Ukraine’s request. - Then in 2019, the #KyivNotKiev campaign kicked off, as if changing a few letters could rewrite a millennium of history. And there is no equivalent form like “Mosckba.” In Russian, the city is called “Moskva.”

@RCM_XIII @TheCinesthetic Apparently literally everything about this guy's life prior to ep4 happened in like a week lol

@TheCinesthetic For me it felt too much like a Wikipedia entry about Han's life - he's on Corellia, now he's an Imperial recruit, now he's rescued Chewie and they're on the run, now he's met Lando and got the Falcon, now he's making the Kessell Run - I really wish it'd been more... (cont.)

Solo: A Star Wars Story (2018) keeps getting dismissed over a thirty-second origin gag, while the rest of the film just moves. Train heist, Donald Glover locking into Lando & a crew dynamic that actually clicks. It never really got judged on what it is.

@MissTogaHimiko @Dag_Zaggles @doggygoth I would rinse chicken, in a bowl or pot or strainer I would not wash chicken, with soap, in the sink itself

@Dag_Zaggles @doggygoth There is no world in which you could ever convince me to scrub raw chicken with soap in the sink I'm sorry I simply do not give a shit what the excuse people use is it's stupid as fuck

I once had an entire friend group blow up over various different issues that all only came to light at once because of someone in the discord server who refused to understand that washing chicken was dangerous

@AutismCapital Finally, the tedious task of *checks notes* having fun, can finally be automated a way to the dustbin of history

We joked that with the new Xbox CEO it would now be the Copilot Box and lo and behold, it’s became the Copilot Box.

@TheModernist_CA @RektifyEarth @nocontextmemes There is literally nothing inherently unhealthy about pizza Bread, cheese, tomato, basil, some meat, maybe some bell peppers or mushrooms.

@RektifyEarth @nocontextmemes Pink would support a healthy lifestyle

@RektifyEarth @nocontextmemes What's pizza, chopped liver? How much do you think a cat has to say, really?

@nocontextmemes Isn't black brown and blue like the only good options?
