@JakeWolki The off white, the beige, the cream.....but never white. That pig fat is just not cricket.

@actualAlexJames Yes. What is life if I can't protect it from those choosing to do harm.

@JakeWolki I read this as "value of sheep"...I guess I need some more sleep lol
English

Imo the need/value of sleep sharply diminishes once you have kids.
I noticed years ago that all my staff that didn't have kids loved complaining how tired they were from that triathlon, movie night or clubbing sesh.
Staff with kids would never complain about sleepless nights even if you found out kids all sick etc
I'm in the business of hasty generalisations this week 😎

Does anyone else constantly feel exhausted every day, even after getting a full 8 hours of sleep?

Uh huh, because warnings on the packets worked ever so well...
There is not a single smoker in Australia who doesn't already know its bad for them. 'Awareness' isn't the issue here.
But in truth 'awareness' isn't what this is about. I'm 100% convinced this is a desperate effort to make it easy to identify and 'shame' people smoking black market tobacco.
Right now the packets look different, but once you pull that cigarette out and light it up its indistinguishable as to whether it was taxed or whether it was black market.
Printing on the stick itself? It's a way of instantly identifying who is who.
I think they imagine this will shame smokers of black market cigarettes but I think it will have the opposite effect.
If I was a smoker getting stung $60 per pack of taxed ciggies and saw a buddy smoking cigarettes without that printing on them? You'd better believe I'd be asking where he got them.

@mmpadellan Trump proved the standards for stair rise and run dimensions to be accurate. The first step is a larger rise than the 2nd, 3rd and 4th, therefore creating a trip hazard.

@harvilicz Think of it this way, if US and Russia have shared interests, and Russia and China do as well, then it puts US / China relations at arms length. It makes sense from that perspective.
English

It’s important to understand this isn’t just about rare earths, this is an opportunity to pull the Russian Federation away from the People’s Republic of China.
I’ve studied Russia for 35 years. Others like Sachs and Mearsheimer agree — Russia, especially under Putin, identifies as European, and never wanted to align with the Chinese.
This is a historic opportunity to deliver a devastating blow to our real enemy: the CCP.
Please take a moment to read my piece Reimagining Russia from @TheNatlInterest in the next post.

@unusual_whales DOGE should look into the cost of black ink being used to print these out....

This is moralistic garbage, which is unfortunately the rhetorical currency of the globalists because they have nothing else to say.
For three years, President Trump and I have made two simple arguments: first, the war wouldn't have started if President Trump was in office; second, that neither Europe, nor the Biden administration, nor the Ukrainians had any pathway to victory. This was true three years ago, it was true two years ago, it was true last year, and it is true today.
And for three years, the concerns of people who were obviously right were ignored. What is Niall's actual plan for Ukraine? Another aid package? Is he aware of the reality on the ground, of the numerical advantage of the Russians, of the depleted stock of the Europeans or their even more depleted industrial base?
Instead, he quotes from a book about George HW Bush from a different historical period and a different conflict. That's another currency of these people: reliance on irrelevant history.
President Trump is dealing with reality, which means dealing with facts. And here are some facts:
Number one, while our Western European allies' security has benefitted greatly from the generosity of the United States, they pursue domestic policies (on migration and censorship) that offend the sensibilities of most Americans and defense policies that assume continued over-reliance.
Number two, Russians have a massive numerical advantage in manpower and weapons in Ukraine, and that advantage will persist regardless of further Western aid packages. Again, the aid is *currently* flowing.
Number three, the United States retains substantial leverage over both parties to the conflict.
Number four, ending the conflict requires talking to the people involved in starting it and maintaining it.
Number five, the conflict has placed--and continues to place--stress on tools of American statecraft, from military stockpiles to sanctions (and so much else). We believe the continued conflict is bad for Russia, bad for Ukraine, and bad for Europe. But most importantly, it is bad for the United States.
Given the above facts, we must pursue peace, and we must pursue it now. President Trump ran on this, he won on this, and he is right about this. It is lazy, ahistorical nonsense to attack as "appeasement" every acknowledgment that America's interest must account for the realities of the conflict.
That interest--not moralisms or historical illiteracy--will guide President Trump's policy in the weeks to come.
And thank God for that.

"This will not stand. This will not stand, this aggression against Kuwait."--George H.W. Bush on August 5, 1990. Full quote from Jon Meacham's biography. Future history students will be asked why this stopped being the reaction of a Republican president to the invasion of a sovereign state by a dictator.

@JakeWolki @Juinz167 mostly just the smaller single shoot plants and anything that grows in the paddock where birds drop half eaten fruit. Damaras also devour cobblers pegs..have cleaned up a few acres of abused horse paddock and converted to decent pasture over a couple of years, no spray, no fertp
English

@JakeWolki @Juinz167 Damaras eat it occasionally, mostly young plants. Also our Saddlebacks have munched on them from time to time.

@theramblingfool The horror. I will build a new house, just for the cables, before I get rid of them.
