“Well known behind the bar” is sometimes a polite way of saying he was perhaps a very regular customer .

Was this experiment on the moon ?

In future, the accident investigators will not be trying to figure out if it’s you or the other guy at fault, but if it’s you, the other guy, your car or his car.

That’ll be fun .

I think there’s another 1/3 - maybe at intersection of them all.

A great many people in shock, and don’t realise this is just America mask-off.

It’s standard American foreign policy and has been for 60 years. The wars they have started, the regime change, it’s all standard. Ask anyone in South America or the Middle East.

Yes. I like his work, but this is rather glib - and as you point out, not at all representative of how people felt and feel about the Zx81.

You don’t need to read it. Knowing she wrote it, and they published it, is enough.

Painful lack of shame

Where are you trying to say it ?

You know he saying to himself “Pretty good, Neil, pretteeeeee guhd”

That is a fucking tremendous head.

Long story short, when I was kid we for some reason hand reared a jackdaw. So he was like eat from you mouth friendly, and would come to me if I called him from a tree . I was about 12.

My mom made me release him cos she thought he might peck my eye out. So we did. He went to live in tree across the street.

When I was out riding my bike, he would come down and land on my head and we would ride about for a bit.

Can’t do it . You must just get labelled a Russian bot and banned

Ain’t no party like an ant party

How do you know if someone has a PhD.?

They tell you

Never not true

It’s….it’s a doomscrolling machine

That’s nothing .

20 years and counting with a heart of stone, so I’m told.

So my thing is, the “deep state” for want of a better word, ultimately won’t let Trump and his backers wreck 70 years of American hegemony since WWII.

Iraq, the Cold War, the coups, assassinations a d sanctions throughout South America, all the bases in the Philippines and around the South China…. It all took a a lot of work.

I’d be surprised if America lets that go.

If you look at what going on in terms of countries moving away from US - nothing has really happened yet. Countries that don’t buy arms and oil from the US, or don’t give the US preferential access to their resources, have historically been awarded a regime change, or worse .

If we look beyond the hoohar, they actually trying to get Zelensky out now, in favour of someone more obedient. That will just sign away resources for a cease fire .

The French would already have shutdown the airports, blockaded highways and lit a fire under Paris.

Yep. I basically wear rags around the house for this reason.
