Upvoted just because I’ve been meaning to look up the definition of tranche and you reminded me. Thank you. :)

After re-reading your comment, I see that too. Sorry.

He fucked the global economy. Of course it’s going to hurt Russia. It’s like setting yourself on fire because you have cancer - sure, the cancer will suffer *too. *

Any reason to believe he doesn’t have it?

Oh. You have a sad read ahead of you…

ISO PTSD trigger warning! Hide that shit the next time.

So sad and so true. You made me giggle and frown at the same time. Have some 🥇.

You could go on, but so far you are getting nowhere. I was trying to get you to look at the definition.

I know what you mean, but knowing what words mean means something too. The US can’t become a third world country.

4 years. Let’s see how it plays out.

You are in group chats at this level? Because, I’m sure as fuck is not. And if I was, I’d read every message.

We are four years out from a book deal.

I agree. Depression is not an excuse. I was only correcting a point.

Agreed!

Not saying he deserves pitty or anything, but depression doesn’t depend on outside things and events. He could do what you say and still be depressed. Have no problems in the world and still be depressed. Turn into a golden god of love and still be depressed. It’s in the brain.

As I understand it, each country decided. But I’m not a NATO scholar. I’d be happy for someone more knowledgeable to chime in.

They can’t even take one country, let alone “Europe”. Would it be better with the US in our corner? For sure. But to think the current Russia could take anything except for small parts here and there is laughable. And this only because mother Russia doesn’t give a shit about her children.

Always is…

Of course it will drive inflation. But printing will be done.

There is always the good old money press.
