Yeah not a chance. Li-po batteries cooking off is pretty fantastic, but it’s more of a spewing fire thing than an exploding thing.

No, I was actually asking because I didn’t want to automatically assume you are a tankie, but seeing as this is a relatively fresh account that only cries about shitlibs on meanwhileongrad, I think that speaks for itself.

The tankie perspective on Ukraine would require me to be a massive western chauvinist. Basically I’d have to believe that the CIA psyop’d the cast majority of Ukraine into wanting closer economic ties with the EU, that yanukovych is a NATO puppet who got elected promising closer EU ties, then did a full 180 on that position specifically to spark a revolution, then also supported the revolution and performed false flag killings of protesters. And then they baited putin into sending little green men across the border, sustaining low level conflict for almost 10 years, then in a master stroke suckered him into an unprepared full scale invasion into a brick wall, wasting tens of thousands of Soviet vehicles and over a million killed and wounded and revealing Russia as a paper tiger.

If you think none of that was organic and the US and NATO orchestrated the downfall of Russia’s military, you have much more faith in their power than me.

Downplaying or downright whitewashing the role of the USA is … lacking, at best.

What did they do specifically?

“The Ukraine” specifically referred to the Ukraine region of the USSR. Since it gained independence its just been “Ukraine.” Typically anyone calling it “The Ukraine” is either misinformed or some flavor of Russian nationalist.

And you forgot the part where russian imperialism is basically working as a recruitment drive for NATO. If you want to call Ukraine a proxy war, sure, but who the fuck started it?

The Ukraine

Yeah they were channeling the spirit of ippo, whose strategy was to get punched until he got brain damage but keep fighting anyway, because willpower or something.

Following the event, the Japan Boxing Commission (JBC) announced all Oriental and Pacific Boxing Federation (OPBF) title bouts will now be 10 rounds instead of 12.

Oh good. 6 fewer minutes of head trauma will certainly make a difference.

(Unironically a great manga, but terrible for boxing advice)

It’s the second. It’s always been the second. Dude indirectly funded hamas for this purpose.

Most prominently by the Bible itself.

40 Then they took the body of Jesus, and bound it in strips of linen with the spices, as the custom of the Jews is to bury.

6 Then Simon Peter came along behind him and went straight into the tomb. He saw the strips of linen lying there, 7 as well as the cloth that had been wrapped around Jesus’ head. The cloth was still lying in its place, separate from the linen.

Strips of linen, not a whole shroud, plus a separate head cloth.

Ah, the usual bluster then.

He talking about a hot war between Russia and the US or a US Civil War? Cause… He may have a point if it’s the latter.

Kinky.

It’s not, but with… Political views as they are, it’s gotten a lot of pushback. People don’t even realize they use it regularly.

“Someone called for you”

“What did they want?”

Bam. Easy. I was stoked when magic the gathering changed card wording from “he or she” to “they” because it cleans up the wording so much.

Ukrainian officials estimated this week that more than 1 million Russian soldiers have died in the conflict

I just wanna call this out as misinfo. Ukraine’s claimed numbers are casualties which includes killed and wounded. I don’t know if Ukraine has any claim for number killed, but estimates are around 300k, though the fact that Russia sends soldiers on crutches to the front lines, some of those might be double counted.

Im sure his wife and daughters will enjoy their time in Russia when his military career ribcage blossoms.

Those drones pack a punch, you know.

Sitting on a chair with a hammer suspended above your nutsack and having a friend cut the rope at a random time will provide the same effect and surprise with much less effort.

Muhammad wanting to save all the young girls? For himself?

Wait so the targeted ship wasn’t even going to Israel? Wasn’t that the whole point of the blockade, not just attacking anyone vaguely related to Israel?

One of mine has the habit of extending just one front paw while being pet lying down. We ask if she’s heiling kitler.

I do the thing where I hold my cat’s head in both hands and scratch her chin and rub my head on hers while telling her I’m gonna turn her into teriyaki stir fry.
