When he goes to confession, his priest has a security clearance.
His kompromat on the KGB is the reason they had to rebrand.
Customs officers declare things to him.
His cover is so deep, his handlers ask him who they work for.
The Russian winter checks his forecast.
He has been sanctioned by three countries. Two of them apologized.
He once bought a small European nation. On layaway.
His enemies have photographed him in many compromising positions. All of them flattering.
He is the most interesting asset in Russia.
Stay liquid, my friends.
AI has opened up a new segment in the ever-growing market of "Hey guys I just wasted a bunch of money! Like and subscribe so I can earn it back showing you what I wasted it on."
For fun I tired pushing gemini to go as long and spend as much money as fable...
After 12 rounds gemini made MASSIVE improvements
actually interesting.
This model might not have much one shot potential but can be pushed??
it might have a high ceiling...
Dear Poland, if you could just stop wishing death upon everyone who lives around me, you would be the world's most perfect country. Please tone it down a little, and nuke your slave masters, not your neighbors to the east. We want to love you.
π΅π± To all patriots around the world - a message from Poland on our Independence Day!
Today, millions of Polish hearts beat as one. For our homeland. For our ancestors. For our children. For the white and red flag that has witnessed centuries of glory, suffering, sacrifice, and resurrection.
For 123 years, Poland was erased from the map of Europe. But no empire, no occupier, and no tyranny could ever erase Poland from the hearts of her people.
Our ancestors fought, suffered, prayed, and died so that we could stand here today as free men and women. We owe them more than remembrance. We owe them the courage to defend everything they fought for.
Our faith. Our families. Our traditions. Our borders. Our identity. Our sovereignty.
Never be ashamed of loving your country. Never apologize for honoring your ancestors. Never surrender your children's future to those who have forgotten the meaning of freedom.
A nation is not merely a territory on a map. It is a thousand years of memory, the graves of our heroes, the prayers of our mothers, and the dreams of generations yet unborn.
We do not want a world without nations. We want a world of proud, free peoples, respecting one another, defending their heritage, and determining their own destiny.
Let Poland's history remind the world of one eternal truth: A nation that refuses to surrender its soul can never truly be defeated.
From Warsaw, on this sacred day, we send our friendship and solidarity to patriots everywhere.
May your nations remain free. May your families remain strong. May your traditions never fade. And may the love of your homeland always burn brighter than the forces that seek to extinguish it.
God bless Poland! π΅π±
@PerfectedNost Kind of like how "Stupid Human Ticks" shows what people can really do.
I can't fault anyone for finding it entertaining. I really liked seeing 20 lawn mowers clinking beers.
This is becoming not only more well-known, but more self-evident. But what most Americans don't realize is that the same effort was being conducted against the USSR at the same time. Rather than promoting communism, it was a grand demoralization campaign. The CIA spent considerable effort propping up Western Europe as the cultural center of the universe. Ever wonder why the French are so snobby? Well, we spent half a century telling them that they were the best in the world, much better than those Russians to the East. Radio broadcasts from Luxembourg would be sent as far as they could into occupied Poland to spread the musical revolution taking place in the 1960s with the Beatles and other rock bands following suit. They wanted everyone in the Soviet Union to know how much their country sucked compared to the West.
And well there is a case to be made that it did, at least in a number of ways, the point is that it didn't stop as the Cold War thawed. Just as the Marxists did a slow March through the institutions over a generation or two, the demoralizers did the same thing in the Soviet Union, and the cultural dominance exists to this day, to the point where I have to listen to Russian people tell me how much Russia sucks and all the good culture comes out of the West.
The very most interesting thing I have observed about this is that both nations are generally unaware of what each of them did to the other during this time, and its lasting effects.The very most interesting thing I have observed about this is that both nations are generally unaware of what each of them did to the other during this time, and its lasting effects. The Russians have no idea why Democratic rioters in the USA are photographed waving the Soviet flag. βI thought that was the party that didn't like us,β they say. And they are correct. Meanwhile, Americans are generally unaware of the demoralization campaign against the USSR, but most Russians, especially older Soviets, definitely are and they are still a little bit upset about it, unless they are some of the ones that it took effect on.

@jonnygravity@_MaxBlade Is that so? Who implied it was a bad thing?
I have an opinion, but I don't think I've ever told a soul.
In fact, I reposted his multiplayer lawn mower highlight video because I thought it was quite charming. It felt very American.
@rob_avis_ramble@GiaMMacool I'm going to be momentarily contrarian. I don't expect to convince anyone, but when I hear this, it just sounds like nagging, not ration.
When I was fat, my rationalization was "I'll get around to it." And guess what? I did. But I guess most people don't follow through.
@_MaxBlade I offer the observation without judgment. The most popular man on YouTube literally does this for a living and he's a multi-millionaire because of it.
@Scopuli@dadstartingover Okay yeah but where's the part where *she* has to put in the work? You see, that's the thing that's usually not happening here. Doubling down on what's not working is generally got a great risk.
