@Mamoulian War https://khpg.org/en/1608811138 Dont forget the Ruskies are also removing Ukrainian literature and language from occupied territory and yet its the Russian language that are the " victims " of the Ukrainians. Sure tell me another one

Ukraine Conflict
Swiss "neutrality " has often surprised me because there is a dark side to it like hiding of Nazi wealth and how people have used Swiss banks for money laundering. But the Swiss have made changes to this and how Swiss banks work so they do seem to be aware of these types of systemic abuse within their country

That was the most eventful and exciting WC final I have ever watched. France seemed doomed in the first half and then came back in the second half. And extra time was equally as exciting I always wonder if PK are the best way to decide victory but I suppose you need to find a way to get a result?

Maybe you should take your own advice about " putting words in people mouths " because I never said that past atrocities dont matter or we ignore these things when convenient. If you want to know what I think about other conflicts ask me?

That doesnt seem like a very good reason to not support France? Its like you using bad apples as a reason to not support a fellow EU country? Are you sure thats how you feel?

Right its time to start predicting scores for the game today, I am going with 2-1 to France Its going to be a epic game either way and both teams have done exceptionally well to get to the finals I didnt think Argentina would get to the finals after losing to Saudi Arabia but they persevered and demonstrated there skill. Go Roquefort Team ⚽

The TV and Streaming Thread: Summer Re-reruns (it's always summer somewhere)
Im watching several engaging series that include The Rookie S4: Its a crime drama about rookie and experienced cops set in LA. Easy to watch and easy to enjoy Fire Country : Directed by Jerry Bruckheimer, its about a young convict with a troubled past who joins the California Department of Fire to reduce his sentence. But he is sent to his hometown where he committed his crime. Its good and all about the dangers and reality of fires in California The English: Its a Western about revenge and redemption. Its has some memorable characters and you reminded of the terrible consequence of syphilis back in the 19th century And then again I want to reiterate how brilliant Let the Right One In is, if you like Vampire series this is a must https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Let_the_Right_One_In_(TV_series)

You famously cynical, why ? But Im sure its both, its both a real Ukrainian concern and its fear mongering to ensure Western\US aid doesnt stop And I dont blame the Ukrainians because there war effort is largely dependant on continuous military aid 🇺🇦

We will know tonight Gruyere is a Swiss cheese and it is delicious, its great in cooking and even better when melted which is why its often used in Cheese Fondue. Also if you ever make a normal cheese sauce Gruyere adds nice richness But going back to Roquefort. I have eaten all blue cheeses but Roquefort is my favorite...I know I should consider Stilton my favorite but I dont 🧀 Do you know Roquefort use to historically only come from a series of caves in France where this mold creates the unique and scrumptious taste . Now the mold can be created in French labs which helps with mass production https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roquefort
