So it’s an artistic homage to the futility of life?

An we are to experience the anger and rage of the artist when he goes to the fridge and finds 6 empty bottles?

Then you failed.

It’s just empty ketchup bottle.

And I use 50% reduced ketchup.

What am I suppose to be angry about?

We were never great. But we use to be mildly competent.

Holy shit. They got everything they wanted and USA got zip.

Then trump paid them 300 billion.

WTF?

Oh, and it’s only good for 60 day?

Good. Stay down.

Bullshit. I started my career in 1986, it didn’t work then either.

And when i look back at my father and grandfather’s lives, i have to say that only worked between 1939 to about 1970. That’s when all the factories started closing and they begin moving everything overseas.

“But there have been officials who stated it to news sources.”

And those statements have been made anonymously and without credible evidence to back up the statements. It’s just spin.

Over my career I saw the truth on the ground verses the stuff that came out the mouths of the “officials” they rarely if ever matched reality. Especially when it was a politician talking.

As for the rest of your statement, there is just so much wrong in it I’m not going to spend hours swatting it all down. I’ve made a valid effort to provide some reality to the news spin. I decline to comment further.

Wow, what a bunch of double talking assholes.

"KATV reached out to Google asking why the meeting was private, who was involved, and how invitations were determined.

In a statement, the company said:

“Today’s meeting focused on hearing directly from the immediate community. Our goal was to ensure varying neighborhood perspectives were at the table. This is just one conversation out of many. We remain committed to keeping this process open and transparent.”

Google allowed KATV into a separate meeting for about five minutes, but cameras were not permitted inside. Several questions about the process and attendee selection went unanswered."

The drone engine is hot and traveling at subsonic speeds. Mostly it’s just the right radar and the right thermal sensors connected to the right software.

A lot of modern platforms have networked capabilities so it’s not just a helicopter and a drone. Everything in the air and ground and at sea tend to work together.

Well, it supposed to work together… I’ve been retire for about a decade. I’m sure they have moved on since i stopped paying attention.

USCENTCOM has never officially said the copter was hit by a drone.
the closes they came is this.

And if you read the article it doesn’t say anything about drones.

The best i can find out is the crash is still under investigation.

I worked for the army for 30 years as a civilian at redstone arsenal where the U.S. Army Aviation and Missile Command headquarters are. They are responsible for the apache. I never worked on the copters, but brushed shoulder with the people who did. The statements made so far are a classic case of the president wants it to be an attack, so let’s agree without lying.

Also i gave you two links to previous episodes like this. Did you read them?

The Israel’s have no assets in that area that could bring down an apache.

It has one of the best sensor packages available, you cant just sneak up on it and shoot it.

Saved you a click….

"Sheritt has been operating in Cuba for over 30 years, but the Trump administration’s new threats to sanction any foreign business that operates in Cuba resulted in Sherritt announcing it was pulling out of Cuba entirely. But the company swiftly reversed course, announcing it would remain in Cuba. Sherritt had reached an agreement to sell a 55 percent share of its company at a discounted rate to Gillon Capital LLC, a financial office for the Washburne family, one of whose members, Ray Washburne, was appointed by Trump in his first term to head the Overseas Private Investment Corporation. In other words: companies that do business in Cuba have to shut down, unless they are sold for bargain basement prices to Trump cronies. The goal of handing public assets to private companies is in no way disguised. Politico reports that Cuba has been under pressure to “make serious economic reforms” such as “privatizing many state assets” and “allowing more foreign investment.”

The Apache was deployed because its sensors could detect and shoot down drones. There is no way it was downed by a drone.

It wasn’t designed for a marine environment. This is a complex piece of equipment that most likely failed due to salt corrosion.

The USA has a long history of faking attacks to justify wars.

Ai, tiktok, facebook are all digital drugs.

These companies have a huge number of employees who specialize in addiction and use them to ensure you can’t look away.

This is stupid on so many levels, it has to be for domestic Polish political consumption.

Trump has left us broke, disarmed and vulnerable. We have nothing left to give. We expended a huge amount of munitions in Iran and are having problems replacing them. Also we had to lower the standards for recruits to make the enlistment quotas. You really don’t want us or these new recruits in your country.

You’re On Your On dudes.

Paging Stephen King…. Will Mr king please report to Ithaca NY, your next plot line has arrived.

Duh!. It’s a high-risk, unregulated casino where the house can change the rules after the dice are thrown.

Your money would be safer in a 19th century opium den stuffed under a mattress.

Oh, we all know why they need it.

YaY florida???

I’m mean, I’ve lived in a bunch of state, and when it comes to blatant corruption Florida is in a league by itself. And yet they are the ones suing Openai???

FYI: states lived in, PA,NJ,KY,AL,FL.

Did some poking around. The AG bringing this case stole 10 million in medicare money. This a diversion to keep a grand jury finding against him buried.

Colonialism is so last century.

Now it’s all about economic exploitation, backed by the threat of military force and covert manipulation of local government. It’s a much more efficient and cost effective. And when everything of value has been exploited, you can just walk away claiming they were never a colony and it’s not your problem.
