you say "the price for a new russia is we bill you a fair amount for damage to ukraine" and then they whine a lot but then they pay it. it's not "lets steal their shit lol fuck them forever"

(which is who ursula etc tend to side with)

(well they could. but it would be bad for all involved except defense companies and stockholders)

i am being dumb. it's because they can't attack europe directly to try and keep their money.
December 17, 2025 at 9:03 PM
again, wealthy western europe "doing as they do" is not ukraine's fault though. if the nato bid is off the table already, why do we still need a dmz?

i'm thinking about this artist in queens (ny) who staged a historic battle in one of the fountains at the queens museum. www.nytimes.com/2009/08/15/a...

to be real, they made a good product but also got raped by private equity (like so many of our favorite things)

more importantly, rus seems mad again. i thought we were getting somewhere?

my liheap money came through (after 2 months). it paid over half my bill. we energies still won't even talk to me until i pay them 600 more. there isn't another option for electricity in our market.

who could possibly take on building it out that wasn't involved with the last 3 D administrations? (staffing = huge problem)
December 17, 2025 at 7:07 PM
idk just daydreaming. i have no staff to tell me to be quiet

similar to the way that all kroger prices are 1.5x higher than they should be because they are trying to recoup imagined losses from not being able to merge. they'll find a way to wring it out of the middle class.
December 17, 2025 at 7:00 PM
but no really, we'd have to figure out how to get the rich to not inflate everything immediately in response, trying to tank my entire admin. bully pulpit, price controls, what else?
