Ukraine War: President Zelenskyy Says The Russian Death toll Could Reach 40,000 In June

Gwendolyn2018 comments on Jun 13, 2022:

Ya know, though I gave this a thumbs up, I don't really like it. The 40,000 who have/will lose their lives will do so via blind ambition on the part of Putin and his cohorts. It reminds me on the WW I poem by the British poet Wilfred Owen, "Dulce et Decorum Est": Bent double, like old beggars ...

Hank Williams was an American singer, songwriter, and musician.

Beowulfsfriend comments on Jun 11, 2022:

Hank III, his grandson, sounds a lot like him. Also, Hank III has his own Punkabilly band, I think they are called Asswipe.

Assjack is his band

I recognize them, but I can only name one.

Will Science Someday Rule Out the Possibility of God? | Live Science

Flyingsaucesir comments on Jun 9, 2022:

Science has provided free thinkers reason to place the PROBABILITY of God's existence at vanishingly small. Will we ever be able to rule it out entirely? Probably not. In a big universe, you can't prove the non-existence of something. Especially if by definition that something defies observation.

Beowulfsfriend replies on Jun 9, 2022:

Well said.

Army chaplain's Ph.D. thesis: Using the military to win Christian converts

Wouldn't using the military to convert people to Christianity violate the 1st Amendment? Yeah...

Beowulfsfriend replies on Jun 9, 2022:

Without a doubt. The fuckwads don't care; the constitution only applies to them when it supports one of their causes.

I was not surprised by this.

DenoPenno comments on Jun 8, 2022:

This is no big surprise. Republicans do not sponsor healthcare and all they go along with in childcare is birth. After that you art on your own.

Beowulfsfriend replies on Jun 9, 2022:

And not safe birth, thus women having stillbirth can be seen as criminals.

The shopping cart theory. Who out here retuns their shopping carts? [youtu.be]

JackPedigo comments on Jun 8, 2022:

Too many times I have sworn under my breath for someone who left a cart blocking a parking space. I will not be one of those people. Often, as I start to return the cart there is someone who wants it and I gladly pass on the cart.

Beowulfsfriend replies on Jun 8, 2022:

One of the Aldis that I use has a "non Aldi like" parking area, farther than normal to the store. Often there is a guy there who volunteers to take back the carts so he can get a sandwich from the quarters he collects (Aldi has a quarter deposit system). I'm fine with him taking the cart and the quarter.

As I noted, a minor hit. It was also played on some television show according to IMDB.

In some ways, as both air mistruths and outright lies. That said, I find fox more repugnant as they get to choose, while RT is pretty much told what to say or how to say it.

We shall see, and hope for. While judges have been finding Capitol rioters guilty, so many are getting slaps on their wrists. Since these guys are dangerous, a judge may give them as few years. I won't hold my breath.

I've know about it for years. Hell, when I was just a baby my dad accidentally discharged a pistol in the house, only missing mom by inches. When I was older, I was teasing my little sister and she angrily picked up a loaded rifle and pointed it at my head. Don't ask me why the rifle was loaded.
