They only held the vote because the would-be monarch insisted on it. So even he recognized that it wasn't necessarily the best option.

The only country cucked enough to have voted for a monarchy.

How long until Apple Maps and Google Maps happily comply like they did with the Gulf of Mexico?

Literally just projection from the Iran war.

Literally just have to change one word, "Iranian" to "American", and it would be 100% accurate.

I think in 2022-somewhere in 2023, a line of control armistice with each side still claiming all of the territory but not at war would have been possible. Provided it also included guarantees for Ukraine to stay out of NATO.

Now, the entirety of the four oblasts plus staying out of NATO is the bare minimum.

The CIA meeting in Moscow may be linked to an offer from Washington to halt the war along the current front lines, in the knowledge that, following the strain caused by the regional conflict with Iran, they will be unable to maintain the current level of support for Kyiv next year. This offer is likely to be rejected by the Kremlin as it fails to meet the objectives of the so-called ‘Special Military Operation’. If the Chernihiv front opens up, the battle for the Donbas will draw to a close more quickly than expected, and with it, possibly the end of this conflict (at this stage).

At this point the minimum reasonable deal is all of Lugansk, Donetsk, Zaporozhia, and Kherson, not just line of control.

I'm going to be in Portugal during the festival. I chose the dates that I did to include it. But I'm probably going to still be doing stuff with family and wouldn't be able to make it down to Lisbon

That would defeat the point of having multiple instances.

Nitter is open source, so anyone can run it. They'll have to individually C&D every instance, and even then they can only do the ones they know about. They can maybe take the source code down from GitHub, but it's already out there.

Jolani doesn't sponsor terrorism, he commits terrorism.

I made a comment elsewhere that China should give Iran a nuke, and for a second I thought that's what this was a response to.

Either would be pretty funny.
