Brace for “Russia and Taliban good because USA bad” themed replies
Brace for “Russia and Taliban good because USA bad” themed replies
they already do a fantastic job of “terrorising” their own local populace, burning food aid, banning forms of art (paintings, photography, music and what not), banning girls from most social and work life, getting money from drugs, kidnapping and extortion.
We can discuss the formal definition of terrorism for pages but I am pretty convinced the meme has a valid point. Sure it is also a government now, so superficially it might make sense to partner with a government to fight local terrorism but when the government is the main source of domestic terrorism, then yea this meme is still funny.
And if they hadn’t secured some deal with the USA and were not in power right now, I doubt they would forever shy away from suicide bombing the fuck out of that place.
Finally anyone who has a grain’s worth of intuition about the world’s politics would know that what Russia calls “a partnership against terrorism” is a cover up for continuing to meddle in affairs of middle eastern countries like many other major players (USA or NATO would call it bringing down dictators for instance). Though this is admittedly separate from what is being discussed here, I was compelled to make this point too.
I think the prompt was: write an article about this train and give it some extra oomph

And out of 7 days, if you are only being >inconvenienced for a couple hours maybe that’s >something you should be more tolerant of.
Out of 7 days these are the only two days most people can sleep past 8 and some people like sleeping. It is no different than consistently throwing late night parties during weekdays when most people have to wake up early the next day. There is a generally acceptable universal range which is no loud noises between 10pm to 9am. If you are the person who needs to make noise (such as the occasional party or repairs that need to start early etc) then it’s you who should go and tell/ask the neighbours about it, not the neighbours who should come and convince you to reduce noise.
they seem to be basically saying that they make most of their profit by selling your private data to advertisers, trend calculators etc etc
Oh man if it is Akkadian and not Assyrian then it ruins the whole joke!
children no longer obey their parents? mf you have no idea what is to come
Anyone who collaborates with more than five people on articles but doesn’t use automatic reference&citation management is just insane(ly inefficient). I collaborate with lab people who cant use latex and can only use google docs. My absolute requirement was using a citation management extension (like paperpile). Now I also require that we use crossref for figure numbering and referring otherwise I am out.
ahh basically the reason I got into maths, annoyance at not being able to understand. After my PhD I realized that I could still only confidently have a solid understanding of maybe say %2 (%1 being the stuff I used in my thesis).
the most important parts are left to last %0
I remember being shocked when I saw for the first time a default subscription method was “recurring unless cancelled”. It seemed mad at the time lol…
it is not a free trial if you dont risk getting billed for the first month
I am playing TOME4 on a high end setup. I could probably play that game on a calculator.
Next time I will make sure not to talk about goverments until I build one myself
Oh no doubt that ISIS will be an even more horrible hell for the region than even the Taliban. But also what Taliban commits there is beyond the word injustice it is violation of every known human rights and is a cultural genocide. Their incompetence will probably end up killing millions in the region.
I understand that the meme might be operating from a much more simplistic view of ISIS = terrorist = Taliban but nevertheless it is the involvement of the major world powers in the affairs of these regions which enable these groups. Lets not forget that ISIS’ emergence was sped and perhaps even mostly born out by the USA’s involvement in the region and USA’s justification was also fighting terrorism. In the end Russia fighting terrorism in the region might even be the funnier point in this meme.
