All of that whataboutism doesn’t stop nuclear from being a ridiculously expensive form of power generation.

UAP business aside, I’m glad congress is asking questions. We shouldn’t be paying taxes and then have our money just disappear into a black hole with zero accountability and oversight.

If that happened I’d expect to see Biden go all in on packing the court. The gloves would be well and truly off at that point.

Nuclear takes too long to build out and costs way more than renewables + storage. Why advocate for wasting money?

The court is no longer fit for purpose. Where we go now is anyone’s guess.

If it’s replacing coal and gas, it’s a big benefit.

Some good advice here. I’d add that you should figure out what your range is, don’t torture yourself trying to hit notes outside of it.

TIL polio contracted Mitch McConnell.

It’s not a direct attack on NATO though. If Russia launched a missile at the UK then it would be on like donkey kong.

NATO is a defensive pact, you fuck with one of us, you fuck with all of us. Ukraine isn’t a member but I support it’s application to join.

Thanks! I looked it up:

"Prince Alwaleed bin Talal agreed to roll over $1.9 billion worth of Twitter shares through his Kingdom Holding Company to Musk’s new private company, making him the second largest investor in Twitter. Saudi Arabia’s sovereign wealth fund, chaired by Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, owns nearly 17% of Kingdom Holding, according to Reuters.

Meanwhile, Qatar contributed $375 million for the financing of Musk’s Twitter purchase."

I wonder if they’re happy with how their investment is going?

Correct me if I’m wrong but didn’t the Saudis finance the deal to buy Twitter? Given the platform was used extensively by protesters during the Arab Spring, would it be worth it to them to pay for Musk to destroy it?

Mike Pence has all the charm and charisma of a Mike Pence. Good luck bud.

Bunkers have air vents, right?

It just sounds like a bunch of basement dwellers lucked out and got rich but nothing else changed.

Ah, that’s why I’m confused, I love the original but know nothing about modern ska.

Sure, bud. What happened on 5 December 1994?

Your understanding of the situation is somewhat lacking, I’m being very generous here.

Most of them can’t even spell fascist, let alone define it.
