it sucks that mittens look aesthetically cooler but are less useful than winter gloves because what if you need the rest of your fingers but can't take off the mittens because then the frostfiends immediately give your hand the cold and freezing and cold and cold and cold and cold and cold and

the official ESC page has tommy cash on it but the video of his performance was taken down from the ESC channel hours after uploading, and now there's also that new song with joost klein getting mixed signals as to whether we'll have someone out there in may or not ...no stresso, no stresso?

elon is faking it in terms of liking ai for the record before he went nuts he used to often warn about the dangers of ai, he even used to call for global regulations on ai now, like on almost everything, he's flipped in order to pursue corruption with the republicans

Desynchronising our energy grid from Russia has begun. We have thoroughly prepared for this. There are sufficient controllable capacity and external connections in the Baltic States to ensure a smooth transition. Tomorrow we will join the Continental European frequency band.

this will be the most "libcoded" thread i will ever make but, my american friends: it feels like there's too much happening. but that's basically the intention here. to wear people out and do a lot of nefarious shit while people don't notice.

DOGE and musk don't have the authority they claim to have here. as bluntly put and as uncomfortable it might be for fence-sitters - this is ILLEGAL and deserving of nothing less than complete and TOTAL legal prosecution and punishment come 2029. legitimately.

We need to figure out who's on these DOGE teams. Start taking pictures and making them public. Document what they're doing. Create a paper trail that forces them to slow down. Anything to throw some sand in the gears and make them nervous about future jail time

i feel like partyball - a kind of mix of polandball and polcompball - would be a decent concept for internet comics if there was an audience for it (something like election twitter would probably fit in that box but it's also the demographic to not do either polandball or polcompball actively)

so #1 this will definitely lead to a spike in coffee-related prices #2 who are "allies and supporters"? the US has designated colombia as a major non-NATO ally #3 i'm very curious how this will impact the US-backed fight against FARC dissident guerillas, especially as the US suspended foreign aid

NEWS After President Petro of Colombia denied entry of two US repatriation flights of Colombian migrants, President Trump has announced these retaliatory measures. Petro said he wouldn’t allow the flights in until Trump establishes a protocol for the dignified treatment of migrants.


I was just informed that two repatriation flights from the US, with a large number of Illegal Criminals, were not allowed to land in Colombia. This order was given by Colombia's Socialist President Gustavo Petro, who is already very unpopular amongst his
people. Petro's denial of these flights has jeopardized the National Security and Public Safety of the US, so I have directed my Administration to immediately take the following urgent and decisive retaliatory measures:
-Emergency 25% tariffs on all goods coming into the United States. In one week, the 25% tariffs will be raised to 50%.
-A Travel Ban and immediate Visa
Revocations on the Colombian Government Officials, and all Allies and Supporters.
-Visa Sanctions on all Party Members, Family Members, and Supporters of the Colombian Government.
-Enhanced Customs and Border Protection
Inspections of all Colombian Nationals and Cargo on national security grounds.
-IEEPA Treasury, Banking and Financial Sanctions to be fully imposed.
