"All men dream, but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds, wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act on their dreams with open eyes, to make them possible."

Is it just me or is every European obsessed with Donald Trump?

IDK about the EuroBros, but it seems like 70% of Americans are.

Sufficiently-advanced TDS is indistinguishable from rabies.

And then there are the QANON-types who seem to have anterograde amnesia, and cannot remember anything that happened since Trump's campaign speeches.


Here in #Australia, we are merely nauseated by our leadership, and mostly avoid thinking or talking about them (while obediently paying tax).

Not sure which is worse...

I don't judge people by how nice they are to me. Swindlers, jews, and others are usually very charming and nice as they manipulate you or steal from you. https://friends.ravergram.club/system/media_a...

Truth, but normie whites being craven and sad is bang-on and not better.

If I got jumped in a dark alley, most of the Pakistani guys I know personally would jump in to help me if they were there. At least half the white guys I know would freeze, cry, or run away and claim to have seen nothing.

We have a manliness deficit in the West, and our women can sense it even as they dutifully celebrate it.

Not super easy to read this. I can no longer find RT in English. Or I would have gone there to look. https://static.noauthority.social/media_attachments/files/116/192/936/711/572/511/original/6b827f...

Bro those screenshots are too blurry, can read but its hard. Use the high res upload option.

Yes, Pentagon planning ground operations for sure.


My hopeless government censor RT using DNS poisoning only.

I use Tor with nearly everything, so I didn't even notice until my mother complained :D Setting her DNS to Cloudflare fixed her problem, since she's a video-watcher and Tor would be too slow.

Having worked with waste industry clients, I can assure you that nobody will notice.

My protest against that system is to learn to repair and reuse, and to buy replacements without using the on-shore tax-paying retail sector.

Will build my own aluminium micro-smelter one day, its not even hard if you have the space and the off-grid energy. Which is what I gotta work on today, should put down the phone... :p

I will start recycling again when all climate taxes are removed.
Raison d'État profile picture
Recycling plastics is actively harmful to the environment. Burning clean, refined fossil fuel (and money) to gather up the post-consumer equivalent of wet peat is as stupid as it sounds.

Glass most places is net negative, too. Paper / cardboard is on the fence. Organics - why???

Aluminium, now that stuff is win. Copper and steel too.

If you truly hated the environment, you would recycle more, to accelerate the end times!

LOL I read half a page of Twillight over somebody's shoulder, and I already wanted to stake someone (Stephanie Meyers, for writing that). Wouldn't go near anything of hers after that

Some popular culture isn't so bad though.

Fourth Wing is surprisingly good, if uneven in the later books.

I have a friend who really likes Fourth Wing. I probably won't be reading it any time soon because my "to read" shelf is a bit full.

True, but those empires came no mass population movements except under the French, and that was reversed. And before that under the Abbasids (lots of dark-brown Arabs from Arabia).

I suspect the Berbers must have been pretty fair-skinned already when the Phoenicians founded Carthage and started written records there.
