Yeah, but you gotta hand it to him: Not many people can empty a wine bottle while giving it a vacuum sealed blowjob. The man must’ve mastered some kind of circular breathing technique.

Anyway, I don’t think you supposed to remember what individual politicians used to do or say. How are they going to gaslight you into thinking they aren’t hypocrites if you’re capable to recalling more than last week?

Oddly, Løkke has been somewhat uncharacteristically competent in his current role, especially with regards to Ukraine. Then you’ve got people like Troels who might say all the right things, at least until an opportunity to take a knee in front of the nearest demanding American, stroke their thighs and look adoring up at them for permission presents itself. Arms dependencies, tone deaf diplomatic entanglements and support for stationed American soldiers not subject to Danish law comes to mind there. The latter reaffirmed just before Hegseth comes out and declares a purge of insufficiently compliant JAGs, which for reasons I cannot comprehend didn’t get Troels off his knees either. He must really like it down there.

At least Løkke is offering some - token - opposition here. Okay, it’s not much, and it’s probably about is practically useful as a chocolate teakettle, but it is barely better than nothing, I guess.

Like a… Pogrom?

Just post some more private information on facebook. Tag your friends in your party photos. It won’t come back to bite you or them on the ass later. Yeah, that checks out.

Careful Xi. You might not want to bet on that ailing horse (for which you harbor a justified inculcated hate and distrust in any case), when you really, really need the EU more than ever.

Be smart.

And, as with all the people Trump admires, the sentiment wouldn’t be reciprocated.

“Well, I suppose your squeals are mildly amusing, but the blubber is revolting and a grown man wearing diapers is just sad. Still, I’m not one to waste a test-subject when there’s Sith Alchemy to be done.”

Ironically, that might be the most useful contribution to eventual peace in Ukraine the US has made for some time now.

Thanks, I guess.

Yeah, that’s a fair point. Substitute with ‘citizens of Israel’ then.

Unconscionable. What Hamas did was inexcusable, but Hamas doesn’t treat Palestinians any better than they do Jews as a matter of public record. I get that Hamas have exploited just about any effort to help the average Palestinian ever attempted, but that should not be an argument against helping what amounts to more victims of Hamas.

Jesus Christ, I’d rather be sterilized with a blunt wooden spoon. Fuck off back to the US where you belong!

Oh, piss off - we’re not the ones doing it; call your buddy Trump and tell him how you feel.

Also: Italy, could you please clean your fucking shit up?

Oh? Have the Russians learned to make their own ball bearings without Germany assistance yet? How about CNC machines, laser cutters, plasma drilling, advanced robotics, ASML EUV litography machines…?

Have Russian developers been allowed write access to the Linux kernel source tree again?

No, no. I’m sure you’re right - they’re doing fine on their own. Vacuum tubes are very versatile in the right hands.

Where “War Fever” should be read as “Self-defense Desire”. I think the EU has long since proven beyond any shadow of doubt that they’d much, much rather spend their money on other things.

…Rather them than me.

A lot of things could happen. Maybe Unicorns will be discovered in the wild tomorrow, which would be about as likely as this happening.

As demand as unsurprising as it is unreasonable.

I have no idea why Milei and Trump though that play would work, but I guess you miss 100% of the shots you don’t take. Of course, geopolitics isn’t a sport, and misses tend to permanently piss other people off.

Anyway, what’s left on the list of places and peoples Trump hasn’t tried to fuck over yet? Belize?

“Hope for the best, but plan for the worst.”

There’s a lot of things that could be included in such a program that would be useful for the general population to know both in times of war and in peace. Civil defense and emergency response. First aid, evacuation of wounded/incapacitated people from dangerous areas. Basic firefighting, shelter locations and evacuation protocols etc.
