Europe's a pretty small continent, recall issues people had with map projections related to that. But suppose Sweden is a decently sized player on the world stage.

Well, is pretty small compared to RSA.

Next time I order steak, I'll tip 0.02.

Sounds like Owlcat's QA department is a nice place to work.

Back in office, so much collaboration going on with literally no one in a 15 m radius.

Made some casserole type thing to consume leftover macaroni, cheddar and I got ground beef on sale so might as well use that. Turned out ok, family liked it. Which is good as they're eating that for the next 5 days. Lacking vegetables though.

I usually get mine well done. Was fun to provoke a fight with coworkers who used to be outraged over choosing that option. Usually put BBQ sauce on mine, but I just really like Sweet Baby Ray's

Ketchup and scotch bonnet sauce is a good condiment for fries, or well anything. Even eggs

Second Monday of the year is when I realize there's another year of this bull****

The international community should seize Israeli assets to fund the reconstruction

And presumably pay for it, too. Convenient.

Russia still had a lot of missiles it seems. https://www.wsj.com/world/russia-moves-forward-with-plans-to-buy-iranian-ballistic-missiles-cf3560e4 Got some from DPRK, too, interesting Kirby talking about airstrikes in a horrified tone is funny when you remember his comments on Gaza.

No one should take Steam Awards seriously, right ?

Miami Connection was worth watching just for the letter scene.

EU4 game is devolved into madness, Austria and Sweden control all of the continent. I'm playing as Russia and Austria was my friend until I finished off Poland and took 3 provinces they really want bad Got Door Kickers 2 over Christmas, so also doing that. I suck at the game, but there's fun in the failure.

They used to show Blade Runner on TV every New Year's here, until the station ditched everything original to be another syndication channel

Yah, I remind my mom to quit smoking. Granted she seems to use the cigs just for fashion, I swear I've never seen her take a drag in years...

Forgot I need to work in office 2 days a week this year. I get to collaborate with people on Teams there, brilliant.

Hope the procedure goes well and your dad recovers KP.

Wonder if the EU helps draft Ukrainians where will they run to.

Is such an escalation though, I doubt they'll go for it, really. A type of victory also doesn't remove Ukraine from the board, so they could be used in a future war. Not as if NATO is going to be sitting idle for 10 years as well. Just the new domino theory to scare people. Is sort of odd how people judge NATO for how they respond to an outsider
