Might have sacked him for a lot of other things and this was the last straw, or at least I hope so and they're not so knee jerk. Maybe he was the guy that called the Australian Hornets "flying trash". Guess we'll never know though, doubt anyone will bother to ask anything.

What You've Done Today - Yesterday is but today's memory, and tomorrow is today's dream.
Annual air show starting, always tempted to go but then I realize it's the same ****ing jets every year and crowded like literally everything else in this city. At least I'll get to amuse myself reading the annual debates - air shows are bad as they traumatize pets, refugees versus the pro arguments of it's fun, appreciate engineering (this one is hilarious) or the brave aerospace companies that defend our freedom (even funnier). Sadly they practice on other side of city, our first year in the new house saw the Blue Angels go over our house, a formation of 5 going slow and remarkably low - must have been maybe 2000 ft

Well at least he realized war is traumatic, imagine that.

Good Old Games still oldies but goodies
Lesson learned though. Wait 10 years to buy a game. I hear this "Skyrim" game is fun.

New WoW expansion today, so guess it's that. Got bored in Warband and cheating to make the Swadian pretender Queen, except Harlaus is MIA and his vassals are my prisoners, so seems I broke the game.

Yes, totally not the International Legion in Ukraine. The idea talk is cheap isn't all that new though, just remember this is a sporting event.- Ukraine Conflict - continuing

She touches on headlines in that, but probably shouldn't. Overreaction in all the reporting, Kharkiv offensive spelled doom for the world, now the Kursk one has completely turned the tide, etc. "It allows Kyiv to address its partners from a position of strength" made me chuckle a bit, as well. https://www.cnn.com/2024/08/15/politics/russia-has-diverted-several-thousand-troops-from-occupied-ukraine-to-counter-kursk-offensive-us-officials-say/index.html If true, then at least less reserves in the south is an accomplishment. So far good progress, they dropped one of three bridges over the Seym river, Russians will have pull back behind it. - The All Things Political Topic
