don't take the $750 b/c FEMA could repossess your home if you don't pay it back

The only reason misinfo like that is so successful is because it's cruel enough to sound like something the US government might actually do. See Medicaid estate recovery.

Her birthday is on the 20th. There's still time for a "happy birthday to this future president" post to really seal the deal.

My take is that pretty much everything should start out as a monolith and evolve organically from there. You will know if/when you need a separate service.

Financial Times - Letter: Seize peace in Ukraine before it’s too late

It's interesting to see a few liberal pragmatists in a sea of Neocon double-down brainworms.

I really believe NATO could reach a peace deal with "security guarantees", with the current front line locked in as the new border and still sell it as a victory (though it would have been far better to do it in 2022 despite the Boris Johnson meeting). It will only get worse for them the longer it goes on.

links to lancet article, which cites un report "Applying a conservative estimate of four indirect deaths per one direct death9" (n 9 citation, which is about drug trade ???).

Looks like they meant to link this (page 32):

A reasonable average estimate would be a ratio of four indirect deaths to one direct death in contemporary conflicts [...]

I might be too conspiracy-brained, but I wonder if the Iranian "hardliners" let the reformer guy win to give the people a crumb of domestic change without having to do it themselves.

It was retaliation for the assassination of a Hezbollah commander

This is a pro-Ukrainian map, but it's usually pretty accurate.

One of my favorite pieces of video game music of all time, from one of my favorite video games of all time.

According to the video description, this video was supposed to be included on the game disc, but was removed just before release.
