Last post by Faust - August 31, 2025, 11:59:39 AMFrom the looks of it, it likely will subside sooner rather then later, Russia have their "eastern corridor" down to the black sea, it is much harder to liberate a city than it is to defend it, russia is now in a defensive posture rather than trying to advance, its a horrible situation in Ukrain to admit this but it is very unlikely they will be able to accomplish anything else substantial, thats why a lot of the retaliatory gestures have been inlands, with small disruptive attacks on Moscow.
On the Russian side, they have decimated their 18-30 year old male population, they are going to have horrific cultural issues from this, hope the cost was worth it.

Aneristic Illusions / Re: The Republicult™ On Parade
Last post by Abbot Mythos - August 30, 2025, 10:03:58 PMI suppose I really shouldn't find this kind of thing to be amusing, as the MSM has already done such an outstanding job of normalizing the Republicult's™ behavior, but this article got me to wondering:
Collins 'alarmed' by Trump firing CDC head
Now, Collaborator Collins is always "concerned" about something the Republicult™ is perpetrating, but very rarely does anything more than voice her "concern." So, I always believed "concerned" was her normal DEFCON 5 level.
Then, I realized from the title of this particular article that she's now 'alarmed.' So, I immediately equated Collins being 'alarmed' to her moving from her DEFCON 5 to her DEFCON 4 level.
And so, I decided to actually read the text of this article, and found the following quotation:
'"I am very concerned about and alarmed by this removal," Collins said.'
Then, I became a bit confused, after reading the words, "very concerned," and "alarmed" in the same sentence. And I wondered if "very concerned" and "alarmed" are both DEFCON 4 indicators.
Adding to my confusion, still further down in the same article, I found the following quotation:
'"I am extremely alarmed at the firing of the CDC director," Collins told reporters following an appearance with the Maine Sheriffs Association.'
So, as Collins is now talking "extremely alarmed," I'm wondering if in her mind this situation has actually escalated to her DEFCON 3 level?! But, I think it's far more likely that "very concerned," "alarmed," and "extremely alarmed," are all indicative of her DEFCON 4 level. Or, in reality, are "concerned," very "concerned," "alarmed," and "extremely alarmed," still all just her normal DEFCON 5 level? Based upon her years and years of past behavior, I'm tempted to believe she's still at the latter level. But then, she probably has realized by now that she's an unpopular candidate for reelection in 2026.

Aneristic Illusions / 'Deathnomics' is Transforming ...
Last post by Abbot Mythos - August 27, 2025, 12:40:19 PMI was surprised to not find a remotely recent thread dedicated to the Russian/Ukrainian War on this board. (That's, no doubt, because this old, established board now has so few active members.)
I do not actively follow The Telegraph. But, as per a quick Google search, this British media outlet appears to be fairly well respected. And, the following well-written article, quoted on an American political website, caught me completely off guard:
Russia's new middle class can't afford for Putin's war to end
'Deathnomics' is transforming Russian society. Few would welcome peace
I'm not, as I usually do, going to post any quotations from this particular article. If the title alone is of no interest to you, then neither will be anything else I might attempt to bring to your attention. But, I will say that I found this article to be a sobering, thought provoking read.

Aneristic Illusions / But ... but ... isn't this *ga...
Last post by Abbot Mythos - August 24, 2025, 09:09:54 PMWorse still, isn't this yet another "gateway drug" leading our country down the path to Biblically Evil Communism?! This sounds like yet another abomination perpetrated by the POSOTUS, and masterminded by his late best friend, Wall Street financier Jeffrey Epstein! And so, I can't help but wonder, to avenge his murder, is the dead fellow pervert's spirit now striking out against Truth, Justice, and The American way from beyond the grave?!
Intel announces $8.9 billion investment from US government, which will own 9.9% of chipmaker
I thought MAGAts prided themselves on being soulless, take-no-prisoners, laissez-faire, let-the-buyer-beware Capitalists. So, this sounds like even more extreme right-wing hypocrisy to me!

Last post by Faust - August 22, 2025, 08:47:50 PMQuote from: Pergamos on August 22, 2025, 05:50:01 PMI wish Liberals could separate "good at mocking Trump" from "would make a good president" but that's fine for now, Newsom is definitely doing a good job of mocking Trump.
Yes his biggest task is make a tweet that causes Trump to have a stroke. If he does then, I dont know, nominate him for a regicide award.

As of today, Newsom is not my first choice for the next Democratic candidate for POTUS. But, the election is still a long way off. A lot is going to happen between now and then. And, I'm hoping a number of other good Democratic candidates will "throw their hats in the ring."
