Yeah, why the hell is OP using SMS?

Lol yes they are. They're part owners of Twitter, which became a pro-Trump cesspool. That alone is orders of magnitude bigger than this Russian thing.

Do you think it's big enough to bother with?

That policy doesn't seem to apply to people living in Russia, or even travelling to North Korea.

He got rid of everyone else when he took over, he's still dealing with court cases about how he handled that.

There's no war in the West Bank, that's Gaza. And this is part of a pattern, the US didn't give a shit when Rachel Corrie was murdered, or Shireen Abu Akleh (during "peacetime").

Having worked with designers in an ad agency (although not a designer myself), the male designers didn't ever have a good thing to say about the work of any of the female designers. Consequently, none of them stuck around for long (one of them is a creative director in a big agency now, so presumably she wasn't that bad).

Then again, they were assholes in many other respects as well, and the guys in the next companies I worked for were a lot better.

Yeah, he didn't do anything directly in this area last time, he just appointed the judges that would. If he can appoint even more judges, they can probably ban abortion outright for a whole generation. They know this and they'll vote for that.

Yeah, not sure that's an endorsement you want.

Yeah, it's not like Minecraft itself is marketed to the hardcore gamer demographic. It's essentially a kids' movie. I suspect it might still suck at that though.

I mean, it would be nice to see a comparison between a Chinese loan and a loan by the IMF. Maybe the sting still has to come because they haven't been doing it for as long, but there's got to be a good reason those countries go with China instead of the IMF.

To me it seems like IMF loans involve privatising revenue generating assets, lowering taxes on the wealthy and austerity on the masses. The biggest criticism of the Chinese way of financing is that if you default on the loan you used to build a port/highway/railway line, they keep that specific asset. And I guess instead of using local labour they use Chinese workers.

There's definitely things to criticise there, but I know which option I'd pick if I needed a port in my country.

Holy crap, I always assumed the runner was pushing her whenever I saw this picture. Is this often posted with a wrong caption or something?
