should be fine, we're probably done with tsunamis
The U.S. has two tsunami warning centers, both operated by NOAA. Employees were terminated from these centers today. The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center covers Hawaiʻi, and now it is less safe to be near the beach.

The great strategist takes everyone for fools, spinning the tale that Russia has low unemployment and claiming it’s wonderful compared to other countries where it’s much higher. He conveniently forgets to mention that he pulled a million or two men out of the economy to be ground up in his "SMO".

According to Russian market research company Romir, 33% of Russians are spending over 50% of their monthly income on food.
The UN states that spending 50-59% of your income on food indicates barely meeting daily needs.
Above 59% indicates poverty.
