Pound for pound it's probably cheaper, but since you can't really flush it I think I'll stick with regular toilet paper.

Wanted to share this since we got a good laugh.

She got the phone and figured out it was a political call. Again. About the tenth one this month. See, my wife is from Michigan and she still has a Michigan phone number, and the DNC has been pestering her for weeks.

She figured out who it was, then told she wasn't allowed to talk to people without her husband's permission, just to put them on the back foot. She handed the phone to me.

I greeted them and asked who it was. She said her name was the same as my wife's name. My wife's name is fairly old fashioned so I'm pretty sure it was just a bit to try and build rapport.

She asked if I was planning on voting for Kamel and I said I was undecided, trying my absolute damnedest to sound apathetic and disconnected, the kind of people they're desperately trying to dredge up. She asked why, and if she could help elaborate on some issues for me.

I said "Tell me, is it true that Tim Walz ordered the entire state of Minnesota to put tampons in the boy's bathrooms at elementary schools? Because I'm a father of four and that just seems like pedophilia to me."

*BEEP

instantly hung up.

8 And in that region there were shepherds out in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. 9 And an angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were filled with fear. 10 And the angel said to them, “Be not afraid; for behold, I bring you good news of a great joy which will come to all the people; 11 for to you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. 12 And this will be a sign for you: you will find a babe wrapped in swaddling cloths and lying in a manger.” 13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying,

14 “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace among men with whom he is pleased!”[a]

Merry Christmas. Christ is King.

We're coming up on Month 5 of the fabled four week Ukrainian offensive that was to have pushed the Russians back to Moscow by August. The Ukranians are estimated to have taken more than a quarter of a million casualties, are almost totally out of armored vehicles and are largely down to attacking in waves like zombies by drugging their conscripted soldiers with methamphetamine. We've even seen the most blatant attempt at a CIA color revolution in our lifetimes in the form of the hastily aborted Wagner rebellion, and the company has since largely been absorbed into the Russian Ministry of Defense. And we've finally started seeing fatigue set in within the US political system as the normally cowardly cuckolds of the Republican party are now suggesting that pouring a third of the defense budget into the most corrupt country on earth might have been a bad idea.

Thus I ask, how do you think the conflict will be resolved?

One small caveat, since I haven't seen this mentioned much on the site. The Russians officially consider the United States a belligerent in the war, and won't accept negotiations brokered by the US government. Turns out lend lease isn't a trick that works twice.

This shit is right out of the USSR. For memeable nicknames I suggest Comorbidity.

So the Democrats have wasted absolutely no time engaging in "optics" regarding their complete retreat of the Afghanistan front.

Today I received an email from the VA. An almost hilariously "Millennial" email, written as damage control targeted towards veterans upset about how their sacrifices were all just basically a waste of time, effort and American blood.

Examples include:

"At this moment, it may seem to you like your service and your sacrifices were for nothing."

and

"Veterans may question the meaning of their service or whether it was worth the sacrifices they made."

Because that's the real problem, according to the liberals. Not that a United States Embassy is being sacked, but that veterans might question the narrative.
