The more he says that, the more likely it is in my mind that he has been rigging elections. Narcissistic projection.

You are repeating Chinese propaganda, as is financial times. Yes, we suck at this. But China isn't evil oppressive government. And they're not really better. That's just their disinformation.

Isn't a bill like that basically a license to kill?

Do not attempt to make people except responsibility for things done by other people in their demographic group. It's wrong.

So, he admits nobody should listen to him in the future?

So, he has to vote for us?

"Rein in"?! Disband them. Arrest them.

Zelensky should only meet if Putin is willing to wear a red clown nose the whole time.

I'm appalled that even YOU are understating the needed solution: It isn't about "no strings". It's about stopping these criminals by imprisoning them and prosecuting them. There must be NO funding, with or without strings.

Indeed.

You know how everything was batteries now can use a USB charging cord? That's because it dozen years or so ago the EU mandated it.

Now that there's no East Wing, is the West Wing just the wing?

Tax them into financial normalcy.

Will the new designs be available in the US too?

I may have missed something in bluesky's threading system.

A friend posted an announcement on Facebook that the save act was defeated in the Senate. Anybody know if that's true? And if so is it really dead or will they resurrect it again?

The point of view is what I have or have not seen. I stated what I had seen and what I had not seen. You contradicted that as if you knew what I had seen or not better than I did.

Your thoughts are... Unusual.

How many barrels per day was their output before the war?

No, I'm a grumpy old man. 🤣

You are simply one of those people who doesn't tolerate points of view other than your own. End of story. You shot people down. Not a good look.

I must be disingenuous without knowing it, because I am not very young. I am in my seventh decade.
The way you speak does not make me take you seriously. You would have no way to know whether I ever encountered someone saying it was a grammatical rule. I did not. It was always a stylistic rule.

That would be a big nothing. There need to be no ice agents. If you think hiring women would change the situation you're delusional.

Actually, I don't think split infinitives are wrong. That was always a stylistic opinion. It was never represented as a grammatical rule. It was considered awkward, which I disagreed with.

In fact, you should read them out loud in the Senate.

Are you starting to get the impression your constituency wants more action than you've been offering? Show some courage and responsibility. This is your job. Do it or get out.

Is Poland going to say no?

It's what I was taught 50 years ago.

I do a lot of sloppy things in casual conversation. I don't think anybody speaks with perfect grammar all the time. My father used to try and sometimes it sounded comically awkward. But that's not relevant to what is or isn't correct.
