I think it was a very irresponsible and stupid decision for president Biden to take. It is not going to make any significant military difference for Ukraine. But it does make a hell of a lot of a difference in steering things up even further, provoking escalation, and bringing the world that one inch closer to a third world war. It seems to me that Mr. Biden made this decision so that he could do something, the last thing perhaps before he leaves office for good. A looser move based on anger and his inability to accept his decline. He deserves to go to jail for this. Imagine if it is a catalyst to initiate a nuclear war! Imagine the damage. He should not have been even thinking about such a thing let alone do it.

At which age does life stop being dynamic and starts being the static and same-old like as in you don't expect meaningful opportunities to pop up, specifically for romantic relationships?

I felt that at 27 years of age. Felt it in smaller scales starting from 24 years old. Truthfully though when I was 15 years old and i was forcibly displaced, i expected to never escape and die from starvation or something.

By now at 30 years of age, the dynamic mysteries ended. I saw the past. I predicted my past from my previous pasts (except my escape). I foresee my future today. For my life is over, set it stone, no more surprises like getting a girlfriend or the exciting things, that the young are privileged to experience in stable and safe regions and conditions.

And I'm still broke.

The Trump Transition Team continues to refuse to sign the 1963 Transition of Power law (induced by the JFK assassination) and related documents with the White House and GSA. He is simply ignoring the law, just like he did when the government was trying to get him to return stolen classified documents.

The Biden White House has continued to reach out to the Trump team to get them to sign these agreements and are being ignored. Since the documents haven’t been signed, the government is unable to grant security clearances or provide briefings to incoming administration officials, other than Trump.

But that also means that FBI can't conduct background checks on Trump nominees. Trump has taken the unusual step of hiring a private company to conduct the background checks. JD Vance has also already disclosed that Trump is going to fire FBI Director Chris Wray. Typically the results of FBI background checks are provided to Senators prior to confirmation hearing and interviews with nominees to give them as much information as possible about them. Transition agreements also provide office space, IT equipment, office supplies, fleet vehicles, mail management, and payment of compensation and other expenses to incoming members of the Administration. The Trump team will not have any of those things made available to them and will be taking over in the dark and without key personnel unless he convinces the Senate to recess itself.

Article II, Section 2 states:

“The President shall have Power to fill up all Vacancies that may happen during the Recess of the Senate, by granting Commissions which shall expire at the End of their next Session,” reads the clause."

In 2014 SCOTUS ruled that if a recess—whether inter or intra-session— lasts 10 days or longer, a president can make recess appointments. The person appointed by POTUS would serve in office through the end of the next annual session (2 year maximum).

I mean, they are all alarming in their own ways, but RFK Jr., Pete Hegseth, and Tulsi Gabbard alarm me the most for various reasons, including demonstrated incompetence and much more. What about you - who bothers you?

before any of you jump the gun and claim that I'm a victim blamer I like to point out that I'm well aware that rape is a very traumatic experience. I myself am no stranger when it comes to trauma so I should know that like any other victims of trauma people who were unfortunate to endure rape often times do not want to REMEMBER such experience. so they...

- Dont want to think about it

- Avoid hearing anything that relates to it

- (most importantly) dont want to TALK about it

it might also explain why so many rape victims dont bother to report their incident. so with all that said I now have a 6th sense and that is to never believe women who I just met or dont know personally when they say they were victims of rape. to me if a woman does not hesistate to scream that "she was raped" from the top of a mountain without feeling any sort of trauma, anxiety, or shame then is obvious to me that she is lying or orchastrated the incident in her head.

she is most likely trying to avoid accountability by claiming that she was forced into it or simply trying to use this as a way to gaslight you once you start to feel the false sympathy for her that she wants you to feel.

till then this tweet explains it better than I do. I should also know cause a girl who I almost dated was a prime example of this. she claimed her ex raped her the night she lost her virginity but then her story started to sound like horseshit to me when we cut each other lose and she would shame me for being a virgin while she was not; like who the fuck would be happy to lose their virginity via rape?

I feel we are running out of places to go. I feel the white, middle-class suburban family towns are disappearing. I hope my kids can grow up in that same environment I did.

Forced diversity integration has not brought positivity. My hometown I have grown up in essentially my entire life is being transformed into what seems like a more dystopian look. It is becoming almost unrecognizable. I am fearful for my family's future.

Yeah i know it depends on the country but if we average them, which one do you think is more dangerous? I always thought the middle east is pretty unsafe because of terrorism and oppression and stuff until I heard more about South America having a very high homicide rate. Personally, I just keep hearing more people having issues about Muslims being dangerous terrorists. Basically islamphobe people but South America is a Christian region while being one of the most dangerous and I don't hear people stereotype Christians as drug lords and gangsters. Maybe it's because I live in a Christian nation which is why they don't bring that up.

Also Should They?

Is it bigoted to believe that marriage is only between a man and a woman?

A "bigot", according to Merriam-Webster, is "a person who is obstinately or intolerantly devoted to his or her own opinions and prejudices."

Does the belief that marriage is only between a man and a woman fit that definition? If so, how and why?

Of course he needs to defend his country. Fucking US and biden started this. And Putin can even drop a nuclear bomb soon, man. This is no joke.

Now that we have Goetz out of the running for attorney general, which of Trump's cabinet picks will be next to be the subject of dirt and scandal? I think it will be Kennedy - but who do you pick and why?
