And that's the first question a reporter should ask Trump.

"What are you thought on ppl referring to your envoy as Dim Philby".

That's an office mug right there.

Reminds of when there were things available for young girls in the UK I believe.

Vermicelli is comes from the making of the hole in bucatini

It is therefore the core of the vermicelli-bucatini spectrum of rationality...

What Ive learned in life is very very few ppl are willing to stick their necks out.

We all love a hero story but the fact is few ppl are willing to be a target.

I often think of resistance movements in WW2 and just how few ppl put it all on the line.

I'd say it was much more cohesive that the current state when it comes to support and control and really it was only in the final years of the Afghan war that it wasn't

Like shoplifting loaf of bread is more criminal than millions in wage theft.

Funnily enough I just thought the same thing as I just finished watching DW documentary that is 1:25 hours of intercepted phone calls between soldiers and their wives etc.

Just insane. And no strong state like the USSR to mitigate.

They need to listen to Behind the Bastards latest.

About Thomas Thistlewood a plantation owner in Jamaica from Britain who kept a diary. One of the few.

And now use said apology as evidence.

And anyone who says "hasn't learned the lessons of Libya" knows fuck all about Libya.
November 14, 2025 at 10:06 AM
Yeah. I mean this is what I love about places like Italy.

Some of my favorite memories are in little cafe/bistro/shops.

Oh for sure. Trump for all his faults, of which there are many is great at self promotion and that gives the less palatable ppl behind him an in with the masses.

Trump is just a front. A face.

Far too much focus on Trump tbh.

I mean rational or not clearly a massive part of the population are morons.

I literally spent time on X explaining to "pro" Palestinians, POC who we going to sit out or vote for Trump that ICE would have quotas to meet like any job and that they would use any means necessary to meet those.

Inflation was a global problem and voting for Trump clearly solved that.

Well also that it appears that Epstien was also involved in go-betweening with foreign nationals among other things.

Hate to inform you, but 99% of top of the pyramid ppl are like this.

First trip I did through Frankfurt I enjoyed because of the outdoor beer garder.

Second trip I was with my 5 year old child and we had to walk for ages to change gates. Not carts etc. no help.

Isn't this literally a medical "cure"?

I seem to think I have seen it somewhere else.
