I would be severely disappointed if I took a beating and then got to my table and my beer was all spilled over.

And I'd be even more disappointed if I won a beating and the same happened.

It's not their playbook. Their playbook is very different from that.

On that date, the US declared defeat and adopted the terms Al-Qaeda imposed on them.

I imagine it applies to the subset that travels to Europe.

I wonder what share of the population or each country can find their own country in a world map.

Of course not. Trump has been crazy trying to find some war that can let him cancel this year's US elections since his attempt to phish a civil war failed last year.

Israel probably talked him into Iran in particular, though.

No. But some avocados taste much better than others. "Room temp butter with the flavor of butter that zipped past" sounds like an avocado that ripped badly.

Anyway, people that like them tend to like them the first time they try too.

Great idea, instead of punishing the people that dump their trash everywhere, just go and outlaw some unrelated activity!

You should watch the movie. Feels like a metaphor or something is the entire theme.

Unrelated white circle for illustration purposes only.

After China, South Korea, and Japan getting together, I'm not even sure this one is his greatest peacemaking actions.

But then, Iran used to be the one place in the Middle East where those two lived in peace.

Just like holding anything in Afghanistan is impossible for tactical reasons, and invading Russia is impossible for logistical reasons (unless you come from Mongolia, of course), maintaining a war against Iran has been impossible for economical reasons since the Middle Age.

And apparently adding Eastern Africa to any imperium will destroy it too, but I can't imagine why that is.

Well, by definition they are.

You are saying that the error messages terminate at some point?

As a developer that learned it once, a long time ago, naturally I sign to the pledge...

I have some doubts if I should mark it NSFW.

All those student protests on the US seem to be about stopping their universities from supporting the Israel government. But supporting a foreign government is not a normal thing for a university to do, why do they do it?

Is there some educational or research resource they get?

The links like !NoStupidQuestions@lemmy.world.

I have had a pretty bad time making those work. I have tried searching for them at the communities page, and removing the exclamation mark and pasting them on my instance (lemmy.world/c/NoStupidQuestions@lemmy.world).

Some times one of those works, other times my instance finds nothing. And if I go directly to the home instance of the community, it doesn't bring my login.

What is the recommended way to use those?
