Fun fact, that word is etymologically related to “placenta”.
It’s really fascinating the way the US has alienated most of its allies in such a short time frame. I can’t think of a single example of something like this happening in history.
I mean I guess there’s a non-negligible chance of her hitting a double fault…
Very nicely put. This describes my own faith almost to a T.
Friendly reminder that Trump refused to condemn a group of white supremacists chanting “Jews will not replace us”.
He is not on your side. And, if history is any indication, allowing government to control speech and expression by fascist means is much more dangerous to Jews than any group of student protesters could ever be.
I’m convinced these events will permanently change the role of the US in the world. I checked all of Germany’s major newspapers (progressive and conservative) and they all agree that Europe can’t rely on the US anymore and will have to fend for itself and/or find new partners. I don’t doubt it’s the same in other major European countries. This might well be the start of the end of US hegemony. I sure hope that whatever new world order we move into isn’t worse than the one we had, and that the changes go over without additional war.
I know the main thing here is Vance and Trump backstabbing and bullying Zelenskyy, but I just want to point out that Trump repeatedly talked about “raw earth” instead of “rare earths”. We’re truly fucked.
Having pets live with you is not (necessarily) the same as treating them like toys, though, is it?
offer nothing in return
Warmth, company, fun…? Also, the experience of being responsible for and caring for another being can be very valuable.
There was, 8 years ago. But the second best time is right now.
Agreed.
Well, for now they’re being deported to Guantanamo Bay. That doesn’t necessarily mean they will then also be deported to their home countries. I could very well see the Trump administration keep thousands of people there indefinitely and have them do slave labor (which is legal in the US).
Who says they’re planning to send them anywhere?
Reddit is no longer a safe place for free speech
Friendly reminder of when spez, many years ago, literally just changed a user’s comment, and then went on to not be immediately fired over this insane breach of everything to do with customer relations.
A new colour (visible to humans).
I think this is a sensible plan. Next after Gaza, Ukrainians should be resettled in Poland, and then Americans in Europe.

For almost 80 years, an important part of German culture has been to fight Nazis and wannabe Nazis.
Scientific 👏 journals 👏 are 👏 a 👏 scam 👏 industry 👏
I honestly, literally believe that Trump still doesn’t know what a tariff is.
