Nice sources! Puts things in perspective for me. I really mean that.

Still doesn’t change the fact that the enemy is at the gates. And has been for decades. And it ain’t America’s gates. Which is not to say, “Not our problem.” It eventually will be our problem.

Europe has to spin up a war economy. Yesterday. We Americans have the privilege of being able to do that with two oceans buffering us. Europe has no such buffer. Once again, the filthy Russians are knocking.

500 calories a day

Are you certain?! That’s concentration camp calories if one isn’t moving, at all. Hell, I’d think your brain alone burns that much. I’m not calling bullshit, I’d really like to understand.

Km makes sense. And few people run 30-60Km a week, so that threw me. I’ve known exactly one person to run that per week, and she was an outlier.

So, let me do the math, this guy is running _18-38 miles a week? OK. LOL, I walk that. :)

More liberal cope? JFC people, liberals got their ass handed to them again, as usual. They simply lack the ideas and will to win.

Whatever. Prepare to defend yourselves against the fascists. Or don’t. Far as I’m concerned, I’m on my own from here on out.

Genuinely surprised to see these comments. I really thought lemmy would eat this particular onion. Thank god for some sanity!

The committee is 5/5, Democrat/Republican. Care to rethink that comment?

Look, these people are playing a game we barely understand, at a level we can’t comprehend, at stakes we don’t understand.

Best guess from my dumbass? They let the “hacked leak” do the dirty work. The facts get out, but no one can point a finger at the committee. Bonus: A “leak” won’t be taken as seriously as an official release.

And as to why Gaetz got busted in the first place? (He was my Congressman, so I’ve been following along closer than most.) He was a rich frat-boy who got into federal office long before he was ready to play. FFS, he was showing his “conquest” fuck pics on the House floor. Dumbass should have learned to play in the state House before he went national. He was a child among wolves, and now they’re eating him.

Anyway, they’re meeting again on 12/05. Let’s see if they have the balls to release the official report.

Those are the guys who get fat after high school. They drop the “calories out” thing, still eat like a race horse, wonder what happened.

and run 30-60k a week

You mean calories? I’m a little lost.

You just described how it works! People get mixed up on calorie intake. I’m scrawny, but when I eat, I eat. No calories other than beer at night. Not a Coke, not a single pork rind, not even a Jolly Rancher. Nada.

So people see that and think, “Gosh! Wish I had a metabolism like his!” Nah. I just don’t eat in between meals.

I remember a 6th-grade pizza party where I horked down 10 slices. And I was always one of the smallest guys, last picked for teams, all that. I was fucking amazed at myself.

Us skinny people, and the people observing us eat, usually got it all wrong. I thought I could eat superhuman amounts of food and stay skinny. Nah. When people watched me go to town, that was the only food I put in my face that day. Not a single calorie otherwise.

My wife started getting a gut. LOL, she’s barely 3-digits. Mystified! “Uh, babe? You’re snarfing candy all day.”

I got a hella beer belly a few years ago. Guess what? I had been going around the office, filling my thermos with the coffee leftovers, and chunking 1/4 cup of sugar in there. Took a few months to dial that back. :)

All that ramble to say, none of us are very good judges of calories in/calories out.

I have dick like a baby, 10-pounds of dangling fury.

This still has me laughing after it was posted a month ago.

I’m all for America funding as much as possible, but FFS Europe, the monster is ringing your doorbell.

OR, wait for it, it might be because Democrats absolutely suck at winning elections. It might be because no one likes them. And all that might be because they’re total fucking failures at governing.

“But muh libs have done such wonderful things and the GOP is the devil!”

SELL it to us then.

“But LOGIC!”

No one votes on logic. Sales class, before lunch, “People buy on emotion.”

Your post is exactly why libs so always fucking lose. Jesus, just say it out loud, “We lost because my pussy hurts!”

Typical liberal cope.

“We KINDA won!”

Face it y’all. Democrats and liberals are a LOSING block. FAILURES.

I’ll continue to vote straight D, because it’s the only choice I got. Fucking losers and failures.

Heard plenty of GOP noise against Gaetz, but that’s about it.

And yes, Congress has the say unless Trump’s people convince them to approve interim appointments. Even McConnell said, “Fuck that noise.”

And now witness decades, like since the 50s decades, of the Legislative branch ceding power to the Executive. And here we are.

Don’t forget low-level healthcare like nursing home and everything hospitality related!

Why housing though? Labor? Might come out in the wash having more rooms available.

Yeah but Gaetz has a suspicious stepson everyone quit talking about.

Gaetz’s relationship with his “adopted son” has been met with bafflement in Washington ever since he first revealed Nestor in 2020, describing him as the son of an ex-girlfriend.

“We share no blood but he is my life,” he said at the time.

It remains unclear whether Gaetz formally adopted him.

The officer corps will stand up. Which is exactly why they’re plotting to court martial “treasonous” officers over the Afghanistan pullout. You know, the event Trump started and Biden finished? The events ordered by both Commanders in Chief?

The enlisted men will, mostly, do as they’re told.

That’s a reminder to shoot back.

“I see guys in camo,” O’Shea said. “Four or five of them pop out, open the door and it was just like, ‘Oh s***. I don’t know who you are or what you want with us.’”

FFS, if unidentified, armed men in paramilitary gear snatch you off the street and your reaction is, “GOSH! What’s happening?! Please don’t hurt me!”, that’s on you, especially after the events of the past 8-years. SHOOT THEM!

“But I might get in trouble! I might get killed!”

Yes, you might get killed. And you might be on a fucking train to a concentration camp. FFS, they’re already plotting how to set them up and Steve Bannon is saying, in front of god and everyone, that they’ll need citizen militias to round up illegals.

Jesus Christ libs, pull your head out of your ass instead of crying for more racist gun control.

Apparently the “woke” crowd is actually asleep.
