They were already doing so, and this wouldn't excuse anything Russians have been doing even if Ukraine had bombed the fuck out of the place.

It's definitely a false flag (in my opinion, not actual confirmation by anyone as far as I'm aware), but not a very good one.

Well, putin orchestrated apartment bombings decades ago, so this isn't too much of a stretch.

I guess he didn't actually want to damage it though, since locals say nothing happened. You'd think he'd at least set off a grenade in the front lawn to make it more convincing.

Doesn’t targeting individuals for political purposes during a war break a bunch of international agreements or at least come close?

I'm not sure. That said, I don't consider "ending a war" to be a political purpose, but if the "rules" of war say you aren't allowed to take out the leadership, then the rules are "only the poor have to die" and fuck that classist bullshit..

And while your enemy being Warcrimes-R-Us doesn't excuse your own war crimes, I think if your enemy is trying to genocide you, then you are within your rights to fight however you need to in order to not be genocided.

corporations not knowing what fair use is

pretending to not know. They're fully capable of understanding when it helps them make money.

Supposed to be. But I woke up and decided I didn't want to go in.

Supposedly I'm giving up my holiday pay tomorrow but if I read my hiring packet correctly, their version of "holiday pay" is "well give you an hour of PTO for the day instead of the usual 3 minutes"

Genuine question to anyone with an answer: why the FUCK would ANYONE think drone-bombing the ABSOLUTE SHIT out of his residence would be a bad thing?

If anything, this just makes them look even weaker than usual. "we can't keep this small country that we said would fold in 72 hours from making large-scale attacks against our country's leadership" isn't a great look unless you want to look pathetic.

I'm confused as to why they're saying this like it's some kind of "gotcha" moment that the world will somehow turn on them for.

I can only assume it's because they believe Putler is somehow "above" the rest of us and the rest of the world should agree that you don't harm the nobility.

This is only kind of related, due to elevators, but I love when I see objective markers in a game, and take an elevator and the marker just smoothly slides away instead of staying steady for a second and popping up in a different location.

It just makes the elevator feel like an elevator instead of a loading buffer.

Clearly you aren't familiar with the mail carrier's oath.

When society collapses, the human population is at a historic low, and evil warlords stake claim to swathes of wasteland, The Postman can still be seen riding off into the horizon, for nothing will keep them from their assigned route.

Hey, I live in Ohio and.... That's fair.

I hate living in rural areas of red states.

I have a small collection of minerals in my closet somewhere. A highschool was updating its science department and I was lucky enough to be working their processing for the summer and they let me keep the collection, since it couldn't be sent to anyone like the textbooks could, and would have likely been thrown in the trash. I know, how generous of them to let me keep their trash, but my thought process was "someone else might take them or I'd have to look through a dumpster otherwise"

My favorite rock would have to be whichever one was the last one I gave to my wife. Every so often I'll find a cool one and show her, and she usually insists on keeping them. She has a couple small (definitely not originally for weed) jars she's filling with them. Usually just rocks with quartz inclusions or cool sedimentary lines.

This guy shouldn’t have a weapon, let alone a badge.

The only reason I will disagree that this guy shouldn't have a weapon is because I think he should use it on himself.

Failing that, dude needs life in prison, bare minimum.

Hey now those were TERRORIST KIDS looking for TERORIST FOOD because of their TERRORIST STARVATION

See you know they're the bad guys because I called them terrorists.

 

Which iconic sound is your favorite?

Personally I like the ambient sound of the daedalus in hyperspace.

The sound of a Zat is a close second.

 

No wrong answers. (there IS a right answer though)

 
 

They aren't around anymore as of this morning, but they liked the hoodie and hat and I thought someone might like to see two doggos.

They were both good girls and I miss them.
