@SpeedRacerJak @BallerToy1327 The whole point of the movie was coming to grips with the life you lived. The good. The bad. The choices of what could have been. It wasn't making fun of him. It was humanizing him.

@jurgen_nauditt Yes because asking you to build up your military is exactly what Russia wants. You will do anything except look in the mirror. Amazing.

Trump is working with the Russians to destroy Europe.

Only an hour after we learn that Russians tried to stage a fake assassination attempt for Victor Orban to help him in the coming election, Trump releases a video promoting him.

@Josh05837206 @ThrashGuitar199 @HazelAppleyard Bad take. In no world is it justice to have a father that killed the animal that raped his 6 year old daughter spend any time in jail. Ever. Thats not justice. This is why we have a jury system.
English
@ThrashGuitar199 @HazelAppleyard It was a premeditated murder, most likely pleaed down to manslaughter. I agree, it was justified but he still took the law into his own hands and the country can't have people self dictating when murder is justified. Just because he was right doesn't mean the next person will be

@HazelAppleyard What fucking jury voted to send this man to jail?

@BuenoForMiami I am not totally against your points but 2 other points to consider:
1. Planes almost always also carry freight, not just passengers. So if you buy something you may have benefited from that.
2. Planes that crash into buildings affect more than the passengers.

The crux of the argument is;
Why should tax payers, many whom don’t fly themselves, be responsible for those who do?
In my opinion, airlines should be responsible for their own security. Americans shouldn’t have to work to pay for the flying privileges of others. That’s just wrong.

@jessiegender Some guy who was probably born 30 years after Star Trek feeling like he can explain to the world what Star Trek meant originally in the 60's is kind of peak Internet. Kind of like me explaining to gramps what it was really like to fight in WW2 or Korea and how he was wrong.
English
Just a reminder of when Gene Roddenberry said that he wished he had had gay sex, believed everyone was on some level bisexual, wanted queer rep on Trek & hoped he was “not male or female”, aka nonbinary in modern parlance. Anyways, tell me Roddenberry would hate “wokeness” again.

@May_Roma Most Americans have deep respect for Japan. Far more than our other "allies" in Europe.

ホワイトハウスは日本にはこんな美しい動画を作成して配信。単にものを買わせたいだけではここまでやらない。欧州には塩対応である。さらに日米会談では日本に有利な条件を合意。アメリカ政府の中に親日の人がいるのでしょう。

@oelma__ We don't have to. Not needing to justify it is LITERALLY why we have the 2A. That said: See the people in Iran that cannot fight their government because they have no weapons? 30k slaughtered a few months ago. This insures the PEOPLE are never the sheeple.

@BallerToy1327 1st season of the new BSG was awesome. But I grew less and less interested as they went on.

Looks like the 1979 Battlestar Gallatica edged out the 2003 version.

@DoctorLemma Was one of the greatest things I have ever seen in sports. So inspiring! Now you have people taking THEMSELVES out of the olympics... what a difference a few decades makes.

The United States had never won Olympic gold in women's gymnastics. Not once in history. And in Atlanta in 1996, with Russia breathing down their necks in the closest team final in years, they were about to lose it again.
Then their star athlete fell on her vault. Twice. The lead evaporated. Eighteen year old Kerri Strug was last to go. She ran, vaulted, landed wrong, and heard her ankle snap. Her coach told her they needed one more jump. So she stood back up, ran the full runway on torn ligaments, stuck the landing on one foot long enough to salute the judges, and collapsed. Her coach carried her to the podium in his arms as 32,000 people chanted her name. The United States won gold for the first time ever, beating Russia by less than one point.
Then came the detail that changed everything. The scores were already there before she jumped. Her coach had miscalculated. The vault was never needed. She tore two ligaments and never competed again. When asked years later if she regretted it, she said it was one of the proudest moments of her life. She graduated from Stanford University, worked in the US government, and raised a family.

@JohnCleese Yes.. telling you Brit's (and th erest of Europe) to actually build up a military and a functional Royal Navy is really in Russia's interest...

He is clearly doing all he can to help Russia, America's enemy since 1945

How can anybody tolerate Trump's persistent lying & untrue blaming of others? Trump is unable to take responsibility.

@TroggAst @ColbyBadhwar Yup. And the US doesn’t and is held to a standard where any drone that gets through is a failure. Context matters.

@droguul @ColbyBadhwar Ukraine has always had limited amount of pac 2 3 intercerptors meaning they have had to be more selective about targets

US PATRIOT crews are evidently leaving their batteries on automatic engagement mode rather than semiautomatic.
That is the original doctrine for ballistic missile defense from the 1980s & 1990s. Huge failure of leadership here. The Army is not unaware of the latest best practices established by the Ukrainians.
OSINTtechnical@Osinttechnical
Ukrainian air defense experts arriving in the Middle East to assist Gulf countries were shocked to find that some PATRIOT batteries had been firing up to 8 missiles at a single target -The Times Ukrainian teams are rapidly working to share lessons learned with allied personnel.

Are you shitting me Johnathan?
The Danes would’ve already sent several frigates if we ‘hadn’t’ spent months telling them “we want Greenland, and we’re willing to take it by force.”
Why, exactly, would they deploy assets they’d need to defend Greenland against an American operation to seize it to the Middle-east?
John Ʌ Konrad V@johnkonrad
Who else remembers half of Europe laughing at Trump when he said America needs to own Greenland because we can’t trust Denmark to fully cooperate in a war?

"Sources describe the preparations as unprecedented since World War II. Soldiers were fully armed, deployed under the royal defense order, and ready for combat."
Even if NATO survived the Greenland crisis it will inevitably leave scars in the alliance.
GeoInsider@InsiderGeo
NEW: Denmark reportedly prepared for a possible U.S. attack on Greenland. In January 2026, Danish soldiers were flown to Nuuk and Kangerlussuaq under Operation Arctic Endurance, carrying explosives and blood supplies, ready to defend the island if President Donald Trump attempted to seize it by force. Plans included destroying key runways to prevent U.S. aircraft from landing, ensuring that any attack would come at a high cost. The operation involved elite Danish units, including the Dragoon Regiment and Jægerkorps forces, alongside French alpine troops, with additional support offered by Germany, Norway, and Sweden. Sources emphasize that while European allies stood ready to assist, it was Denmark’s own planning and readiness that created the strongest deterrent, signaling clearly to the U.S. that Greenland would not be taken easily. The crisis escalated after the U.S. military operation in Venezuela on January 3, 2026, which made officials fear that Greenland could be next. Overnight, what had been a simmering concern became an urgent, all-hands-on-deck defense of the Kingdom, with Europe coordinating closely but leaving Denmark in the leading role. Sources describe the preparations as unprecedented since World War II. Soldiers were fully armed, deployed under the royal defense order, and ready for combat. F-35 fighter jets and naval assets were mobilized, while multiple European allies offered troops, air support, and naval presence. Operation Arctic Endurance was officially presented as a military exercise, but insiders stress there was nothing simulated about the readiness. Although President Trump later publicly ruled out military force, sources warn that the Greenland crisis is not over. Trump is here for three more years a high-ranking Danish source says. No matter what happens, the distrust and challenge to the Commonwealth will persist as long as he aims to go down in history by expanding U.S. territory. For French officials involved in the crisis, the past year under Trump has been a stark lesson: Europe must relearn the grammar of power and cannot assume that military support from the United States will always be available if Europe faces threats.

@NAFORaccoon How many drones get through in Ukraine? They getting the same success rate? HIGHLY doubt it. And every one that gets through the US defense is hyped beyond belief by folks like you and the media.
English
Ukrainians who went to the Middle East to teach how to shoot down "shaheds", were horrified by the way the US military does it - The Times
- They launch up to 8 Patriot missiles at a single target
- Sometimes they even use an SM-6 missile ($6 M) to shoot down 1 drone
- Radars often operate without proper camouflage, essentially "shining" like beacons. In Ukraine, however, radars are constantly moved and hidden.
As an example, they cite a case where just three cheap drones destroyed an early detection radar AN/FPS-132 worth about $1 billion and another air defense radar (~$300 million), which had long been stationary and easily tracked by satellites.
But it’s not all bad news for the US military. Pete Hegseth appears to be able to bench press 315 lbs.

To the MAGA lot, let’s get the Falklands straight.
Britain didn’t invade anything. A failing Argentine regime did in 1982 to distract from chaos at home.
The Falklands were British. The people there are British.
The UK did what any strong nation would do, we defended our people and took back our territory.
You can't say the same about your ill advised war in Iran!

@Wilson34David @Telford00001 Yeah and that's purely an American issue... I think not.

@droguul @Telford00001 Oh there’s plenty more. Try a few weeks ago with the John Davidson comments. Plus the fact millions of them voted Trump in as President. Thick as two short planks.
