include Overtime been exempt from child support/alimony.
@Based_Accelerationist @LysanderMooner Except what has been strategically effective? They haven't nominally damaged Russia significantly. The pressure to end the war for military improvement & closure is more important ghan these red light green light issues. Winning faster benrfits them to consolidate & help allies. Simple as. They are being ultra conservative and should go faster to avoid too much attritional issues.
@LysanderMooner I can imagine hard liners are tired of a slow crawl when they're likely capable of more.
@CheshireHuman I just tune out. He's said it before that it is a cope to the current social situation all around the west. Which is fine, but altogether it ain't for me either.

@MrpoopyButhole Looks like it's all over for us oil bros. We're done.
Anyway, I bought more.
@Justicar Eh Slavic White. Not as good per say and a generally greater corrupt peoples historically, but not all is wholely written away. They will likely be the other half to recover and not live through communism in full again
@Justicar At the end of the day people need something immaterial to believe in. No matter your stance on these broader populations need something beyond them.
@houseoftolstoy For decades Chinese banking has gladly taken its cuts so that the uniparty groupings can wash their money with low tracing through China. Ukraine now is the most blatant example of this, but it is an operation there for more specific interests as opposed to broader banking. China and Russia have and always will have some level of corruption to take these cuts as it is essentially to take free money with the same blame they would have gotten anyways.
@houseoftolstoy I have told everyone in my other circles the same shit, but with China. China certainly does "Some" shit. However, legitimately all that this is through Russia is a money washing operation between western elite structures through corrupt Russian banks in a trade for a cut of foreign currency they can use for other things just to "Wash" IE transact a home of money through these banks. China is famous for doing this as black money operations for politics in the US.
@Based_Accelerationist The system itself is so fractured & broken that they can not kick the stilts too hard either lest they risk collapsing everything in on itself. No amount of panic at this point is going to send us into a foreign war. If it somehow forms into a foreign one it collapses into a domestic one if it wasn't a domestic one already. Much of what you talk about requires a backdrop of willingness to work with the state. People only have material prosperity left. Not enough to war for
@Based_Accelerationist Another 9/11 wouldn't spark more than some sort of civil conflict. I would otherwise agree if we were more united, but any 'Major' event is simply going to splinter people at the core of things. People do not proclaim things and into account goes some relative faith into institutions & figures. We won't have lockdowns again until we are sufficiently unarmed. I mean they could try and they would likely die.
We'll have draft riots if they attempt any war.
@Based_Accelerationist I haven't seen this sentiment anywhere either. It's made up bullshit. I'm not even a huge fan of Trump either. The only people fighting age Christian men want to fight at this point are not people abroad. It is either immigrants or doing the thing. But what I will say is that nobody wants to do so without a leader. Because obviously no single man action will do anything. But aside from actual feds there's nobody IRL, in my normie circles, of any kind that will die abroad.
@Based_Accelerationist It may look like the boomers may be prowar with Trump, but I have yet to meet a single guy, or christian guy who is of fighting age that will fight a war for Trump that is not a civil war. Trump isn't convincing anyone to gp die in a foreign war.

I can't be the only one who would absolutely love to see the bullshit models they worship of how they think this is going to work.
It's all coming apart for them: Malthus' original predictions have been dis-proven, Neo-Darwinsim is under serious challenge, and elite Fabian Socialism is failing all over the West.
Their vision is basically religious. But religious in the wild-eyed French revolutionary Enlightenment cult sense.
Beware of the French, they fuck everything up.

@Wopu Sovereign bullion and actual US based 64' & oldest coins are the most trusted silver content fractionals you can get. However, you are essentially betting on the trust of proven silver isduance in years of release to be important in a price explosion of silver that would cause a wide spread counterfeit market. Otherwise just raw silver is the way to go. I think it is useful to keep a mix of it all.

This prediction was absolutely spot on. Almost every pickup truck I see is the ones with the cab taking up half of the truck, as if pickup trucks were meant to be used to transport a small family rather than being used for hauling various loads in the bed.
It is rare to see a pickup truck that actually looks like it was made for hauling loads in the bed while also having efficiency in terms of size in mind (e.g. Ford Ranger).

Sometimes you have a near perfect day - solving a hard problem, mentoring someone worthy of your time, completing a difficult workout.
Sometimes you also end up making the perfect plate of bacon.
And sometimes, you get to enjoy a whisky and cigar afterwards.
Going Your Own Way can be awesome.

My Carnotaurus figurine finally arrived. Stunning sculpt with great painting work.
An absolute menace and definitely one pricky boy, especially at the horns, arms and back area.
@Justicar Part of it too is that tech community people can just go 'underground' and work on their own hobby work on their own. No real pressure to share or show it off. They can handle their personal lives and just work on stuff on the side instead of deal with gay retard communities
