Actually almost all of the main characters suck. VSD isn't quite so annoying, though, as Kell or Kai - he's a Superman but is emo about failing.

Reading the Blood of Kerensky books, forgot what kind of writer Stackpole is but remembered it a minute or two after buying it. Cheap at least, have to say Phelan Kell is a special character.

Y'know things are weird when Blatter sounds good next to Infantino. Also Iran is going to play at least one game in the US, hopefully ICE Commandos don't nab them all. Yep, Group F could be tricky. Germany got an easy draw, but they are choke artists of late so who the hell knows. Canada could end up with Italy, or more likely Northen Ireland.Ideally would be 64 teams in the Cup.

Replayed a bit as I got the DLC, maybe will replay the whole thing with them. Giving Argenta the bolter with AoE remains a bad idea, hilariously so as got her to suicide herself as a mob was a little too close.- The All Things Political Topic - SNAFU edition
Well bit of both, Hegseth has some burning desire to show machismo at every opportunity, which given his less than stunning military service record makes me maliciously assume he's just insecure about being a mere Civil Affairs soldier and that Bronze Star has no Valor device. But, yeah, no one cares/ No one cared about drones. At least South Park took the piss out of him- The All Things Political Topic - SNAFU edition

- Ukraine Conflict - war continues on
Is a proxy war of sorts, maybe not purpose but they have been useful, at least for the countries that matter. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/ukraine-russia-war-peace-deal-trump-driscoll-abu-dhabi-talks-latest/ Ukraine agrees to a set.- Ukraine Conflict - war continues on
Well not sure the front is collapsing, but Ukraine's on the backfoot now and has been for some time. They have troop shortages and that's making things worse as people on the front are going to break. Russia's not stellar by comparison, but this a rate fight, so to speak. Quite true.- Obituary thread
