... Or you could just read a history book that wasn't written by a Mao fanboi.

I love this book! I first read it, I don't know, maybe 20 years ago, back when Pargrin (he went by David Wong then) posted one chapter of it at a time on his website. A few years after he got it published, Don Coscarelli (director; does mostly indie movies including the "Phantasm" series) read the book, flipped out about it, and decided to buy the rights to the story and make it into a movie. It's a pretty great adaptation, too! I'd rate it as mostly faithful to the source material. It's got Paul Giamatti, Clancy Brown, and Doug Jones in it.

Anyway, if you like JDATE, you should check out Coscarelli's movie of the same name. And also read the rest of the books in the series (book 4 was published about a year ago). And if you like the movie, you should also check out another Coscarelli classic, "Bubba Ho-Tep", starring Bruce Campbell as Elvis.

I've seen that in a lot of threads, and there never really seems to be a common definition for what that actually means. Could you enlighten the class?

Incorrect. The position of the Romanian government was very much that the first drone didn't hit them:

The Romanian Defence Ministry said Romania was not hit.

"The ministry of defence categorically denies information from the public space regarding a so-called overnight situation during which Russian drones would have fallen in Romania's national territory," it said.

"At no time did Russia's means of attack generate direct military threats on Romanian national territory or waters."

My favorite bit about Flat Earthers is that most of the ones who consider the question of other planets / moons believe that they are all spheres. Because they can see them. But the Earth is somehow a special case.

Y'all really only have the one joke, huh?

And how did you come to that conclusion?

Yeah, looking at the image, I was sure the article was going to be written by a cunt. Turns out, the article basically calls conservatives cunts, too, just in language that's less inflammatory than mine. So now I'm thinking they chose that picture to appeal to the conservative base so that they can tell those stupid cunts directly that they're stupid cunts.

Well, they already are across the Dnipro. They've had a bridgehead outside of Oleshky for weeks, now. According to recent reports, they just expanded it as well. The attack on the Kerch bridge has caused some major logistical issues that have been greatly exacerbated by Ukraine's constant blowing-up of ammo depots. So I think that we'll probably see Ukraine take Oleshky in the next month or two as well.

God, could you imagine the smell? That rubber suit of his would really seal in the flavor.
