LG similarly uses Life’s Good as a slogan/brand name in the West. It actually stands for Lucky Goldstar.

The U.S. doesn’t recognize the ICC and sanctions its officials if they investigate war crimes by the U.S. or its allies.

We briefly ratified the Rome Statute in 2000 but pulled out shortly after invading Afghanistan and shortly before invading Iraq.

Alton sure has the best recommendations for getting that beautiful mahogany skin. Perfectly executed! Nice cook.

Yes, and the two are interrelated. Scarcity breeds insecurity, insecurity breeds conflict, and conflict destroys physical and societal infrastructure of production that leads to further scarcity. It becomes a vicious cycle. And indeed I believe you are entirely correct that a long legacy of U.S. neocolonial interventionism has contributed to the instability.

This is just the start. A billion people on the Indian subcontinent are next. The tropics globally will desertify as the planet warms. Even the increase in migration from Central America to the U.S. is driven by extreme weather and lapses in agricultural productivity. A 2017 study by the World Food Program found that “no food” was the main reason people from Central America sought to emigrate to the U.S.

40% of the world’s population - 3 billion people - live in the tropics. A single city is one thing. Where will 3 billion people go?

Not to mention the ridiculous irony of white South Africans complaining about “replacements.” You are the replacements, colonial dipshits.

They’re already executing Palestinian prisoners. And beating them, and torturing them, and gang raping them, and arresting the lawyers who leak the footage of the gang rape. But now the executions will be legal.

The next two weeks are going to be deliciously salty.

Some bots emulate humans; some humans emulate bots.

It’s awarded each year so presumably she’d nominate him for the next round. They’ll never give it to him, though. A meaningless brown-nosing attempt without impact.

Surely this will lower the price of eggs.

Yes, socially. But also a weird flavor of Japanese conservatism economically. She supports strong economic interventionism, massive stimulus funded by additional debt, cash distribution, etc. Not at all a free market type.

They are savages. They kill children for sport.

And he is just one of probably dozens or more powerful people escaping consequences.

Renewable energy would “blight the landscape”? As compared to coal?

Again.

Crimea? Take it. Tylenol? Don’t take it. Or maybe take Tylenol and give Crimea to Putin, there’s no downside. But a lot of people are saying that maybe you give Tylenol to Putin and you can take Crimea, how about that? A lot of people are saying.

You mean the same Jerry Seinfeld who was “dating” a 17-year-old high school student when he was 39? The one who was on TV a quarter of a century ago?

Because that dude can fuck himself.

They’ve attacked most of the journalists, too. This attack was par for the course of Israeli terrorism.

Israeli govt has been pretty clear that it wants to occupy and depopulate the whole region. The perp openly admits the crime, and still the US, UK, Germany line up to send them the funding, weapons, and diplomatic cover to commit it. Despicable state of affairs.
