Guess it's just the claims system, kicked an empire's teeth in but was grinding along but had to stop. I guess my people were exhausted by decisive victory. AI empire had such awful planet layout, spending a lot of time going through it. At least they added espionage, even if it's not as fun as SE IV. Also the game seems to encourage not expanding much, so maybe 3.5 X Game chugs in late game but that's Paradox for loop I guess No kidding, see a lot things blocked out because I am missing X DLC.

Wonder what they promised to Israel. West Bank annexation and cleansing getting US approval ? Actually missed the more obvious idea that Bibi was just stalling to give Trump a win

Who knows how much, well and how it played in. Seems like he'll get the credit though. Bit embarrassing for Blinken but oh well. Although this is essentially the same deal from May, no? https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2025/01/15/israel-war-gaza-ceasefire-hostages-news-hamas/#link-RO4YL25X2ZB6DJP3TWPCCUIFTE

Bondi saying she hasn't heard Trump's tape with Raffensperger was pretty funny.

Was in the mood for a 4x game, picked Stellaris although I wonder if it is considered such. The way they do wars in the game seems a bit silly.

Rather funny, overall. Should start drafting below 25.

Amusing characterisation, but it is you. He'll probably last the whole term, seems like the toady sort.

Looks like Hegseth is in. At least Duckworth got a good hit

A lot of those may be Wagner troops, you'd get killed for surrendering. Ukraine having good success with drones attacking oil depots and refineries, overn

Just offset a bit by it being a POW video. I am sure some Ukrainians dislike Zelensky and all, but Russian MoD videos of them declaring so...

You're taking POW videos at face value ? Really. Not sure really, have seen people say it's justification (near an obligation to some loons) for ROK to send aid or troops as well. As Ukraine is the greatest concern of all nations, heh. Not sure why ROK cares if DPRK wants to send their troops to die in a far off land, that much. Gaining experience is one things, but this isn't a ****ing RPG.

They did this to my account last month then it stopped, then back again. Some of the ads are impressive, a 3 MINUTE long ad when the video is 5 minutes , for example.

Youtube subjecting me to injected ads again, at least the Youtube Enhancer addon is providing me an effective workaround, especially as I mostly listen to Youtube more than anything

Rewatching Space Above and Beyond...wasn't a good idea.

Thanks, but I will uninstall this once I'm done the campaign. Not so much the game is bad, really, I am just awful at the game I am feeling.

Could be. Remarkable amount of people in every country can rationalize their state doing whatever they like, I guess.

Still slogging through DoW 3. Gorgutz is funny at least.

Yes, hence the "some".

"Warriors and explorers", heh.

And you see no problem with the leader of nation doing this? One thing, sure does show how some Americans basically are like Russia when it comes to being ok with annexation or mafia like behaviour.

Will tell my Ukrainian neighbour that.

It means we'll have an election and probably a Reform, er, sorry, Conservative PM. That's all right now. Was PM for 9 years or so, that's quite a long time - either the people get sick of them or they get taken out by in party knives. It's funny seeing Americans think Trump is responsible for this, but the ones to say that are retarded.
