  1. The only response that matters is Germany’s. Anything short of NS2 being cut off is a win for Putin.
  2. So my guess is NATO/UN drops some sanctions for the independent state stuff. Putin will say that Russia is being attacked first, and use that as part of the justification for liberating eastern Ukraine. Bonus is China will use any sanctions or reaction about the verbiage about the independent states as leverage for their actions on Taiwan.
  3. That’s a feature, not a bug for Putin. He gets to point at NATO expansion as justification for what he is doing. He doesn’t give a shit about NATO being on his doorstep, because he knows they aren’t a threat as long as he doesn’t touch a NATO country.
  4. Before the Iraq war any flight over 8 hours was allowed to be bumped to business or first class. Once the pentagon started seeing all the contractor bills coming in for everyone flying to Kuwait that shit got nixed quick.
  5. Re: the Baerbock thing. It sounds like similar language that Biden got hammered on. The different response packages are based on other non -kinetic aggressions like cyber attacks that don’t involve troops crossing the border. The US and NATO have been pretty clear that anything crossing the border = invasion and would result in NS2 being cut off along with all the other big sanctions.

    At this point I’m not sure you could play with crayons without hurting yourself if that’s really your take. I’ll take your lack of an answer about Trump’s fellatio of dictators as an answer.

    “Trudeau’s rivals pounced on that.” Is a direct quote at around the minute mark from the video you posted. He made a ham fisted joke about how much easier it is for a dictatorship like a China to flip a switch to go green. I don’t follow Canadian politics especially from 8 years ago, but my guess is his gov’t was running into issues pushing their green agenda through so he tried to make a funny in front of a bunch of women and politics gonna politic. Would you like to see how many times Trump has praised dictators in a similar fashion or do you only hold Canadians accountable?

    Lol, the entire piece is talking about the right wing pouncing on any gaffes to fund raise and try to dent Trudeau’s popularity. The article I posted is less than 2 months old. since I’m sure you didn’t bother to actually read it. BuT tHaT SouNdBite fROm 2014!!!
  9. Man it’s amazing how many of his exact arguments are still being used today for CRT, mandates, lockdowns, etc. “segregation isn’t racism, integration is the REAL racism.” Maddox was doing all lives matter before it was cool.

    https://www.reuters.com/world/western-states-need-united-front-against-divisive-china-trudeau-2021-12-25/ Literally 1 second of googling.

    At what point were you not on the opposite side of Trudeau and the Canadian left?
  12. TIL that the away goal rule has been scrapped. Teams keep the 5 subs, and get a 6th if it goes to extra time.
  13. They aren’t remotely hiding this stuff https://www.thedrive.com/the-war-zone/44226/russia-looks-like-it-wants-to-all-but-wall-off-ukraines-coastlines-next-week The NOTAMs run right up to the end of the Olympics. Makes sense that Putin won’t step on Xi’s toes, and everything will be in place to pop off right after.

    I remember carrying you guys. My back still hurts to this day…
  15. If I was anywhere close I would, but I’m an hour north so getting down there to teach him isn’t in the cards. Looks like Oma is going to take a Lyft to his place.
  16. Yea, I’m really shocked the flight is still coming in. My kid lives in west campus, so he would have to cross the Colorado somewhere to get to the airport. He’s never driven in icy conditions, so if I can avoid it I will. She lands after 9, so shit will be frozen again. Right now the hope is cabs or Ubers are still running. If she lands and can’t get something from the airport I’ll start guiding him there.
  17. So my mom’s flight from ATL to Austin still hasn’t been cancelled. Are the roads still fucked down there?
  18. TXSG8R replied to Napoleon's topic in Futbol
    We should have played every game that way, but what’s done is done. Based on what’s happened so far I expect Gerg to field another concession roster for Mexico and put all our eggs in the Panama basket.
  19. TXSG8R replied to Napoleon's topic in Futbol
    Not sure how that helps your argument. The goal shouldn’t be to qualify for the WC and call it good with the talent we have on hand. It should be to get as deep as possible in the tournament. If we keep playing with the small team mentality we are going to get to Qatar and get hammered. We need to be making our players believe they can play with anyone and stunts like last night don’t help. Gerg’s concession rosters on big road games don’t help. This team should be dominating concacaf, not limping in to the WC still full of questions. The mental side of soccer is way bigger than people think.
  20. TXSG8R replied to Napoleon's topic in Futbol
    It’s not a moral outrage, it’s anger at the stupidity of it all. If we need the weather to help beat the worst team in the hex, we don’t deserve to play in the WC. It exposed our players to injuries. It also shows mental weakness. It tells our players that the fed doesn’t believe in them to win without help. We should be doing everything possible to prepare our players for the World Cup in Qatar. Conditions, rosters, tactics, should all be focused on that. I doubt we play any sub zero games there, so this wasn’t helpful towards that goal.
  21. Sweet. I told her to prepare for an overnight in ATL when she was packing. Thanks fellas.
  22. That’s just some top notch reply/handle synergy. So far the flight is still on track, which surprised me. Didn’t know if Austin was supposed to creep above freezing later today so roads would improve.
  23. My mom is supposed to fly into Austin from ATL around 10 tonight, and my son was supposed to pick her up and have her stay at his apartment in Austin tonight. He lives near Guadalupe/west campus. What are the chances the flight comes in, and what are his chances at driving from there to the airport avoiding any furked bridges or overpasses? I’ll hang up and listen.
  24. Her personal Twitter got banned. That’s her gov’t account.
