Grim assessment:
"The Ukrainian military is suffering from roughly 100 killed-in-action every day, and 100 to 300 wounded-in action, said Milley, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff."

Stay strong.
We can only live in the present.

@WeThePeople
I wonder just how much this changed their culture.

@Render
This has me thinking....

Buy Low - Sell High!

Now might be the time.

Just saw Top Gun, Maverick.
Very entertaining!!

Wife on a Plane!
Coming home!
I don't Bachelor very well anymore.
Nevertheless, I just enjoyed a sushi dinner - which doesn't happen unless she's traveling.

FYI, your district attorney, the one responsible for prosecuting crimes, doesn't have to tell the public what deal they made w/ the criminal in cases that don't make it to court.

When a DA takes over a case the victim is no longer the plaintiff and doesn't have any right to be included in any plea deal.

In San Francisco, the former DA reduced felonies to misdemeanors and didn't involve the victims or their attorneys.

We had no way to track that.

There needs to be a law for accountability.

The Stephen Colbert opener tonight was fantastic!!!!

Russians are such fuckers...for centuries. My great grandfather was a Lithuanian conscript for Russia in the Crimean war. Those assholes just keep breeding fuckers for generations.

She wants to check out Santa Cruz!

Everyone should listen to the January 6th hearings tonight!

This is this generation's Watergate. It will be discussed for decades.

This is the more clear answer to my original post:
- The ends do not justify all means
- If the means are immoral, and even if the ends are for a greater good, the precedent is reinforced that all immoral means are to be implemented to achieve any ends that result in that greater good
- Additionally, it doesn't provide assurance that the ends are ultimately for the greater good
- This would unhinge some basic tenets of a stable society
- Doxing children unhinges society

When snorkeling, please use reef-safe sunscreen.
Oh, and also, use sunscreen!

Poor bastard.
He'll see them eventually.

@Render
OK, so either Israeli mothers have an incredible sense of humor, or...Mossad does?

@WeThePeople
I was at the victory party last night.

@stueytheround @Render
Listening to the parents of Uvalde children-victims speaking to Congress made me go down this dark path.
What would sway those stone-cold hearts?

@stueytheround @Render
I actually did.
You have made me think more deeply about it.
Forgive me the spontaneity of my toot.
The part I grapple with is that thousands of children are about to die.
What solutions do we have left?
Solutions are not always ethical.
Some shouldn't ever be implemented.
But, if you lined up 1000 children and said that they are going to die before 6/8/2023, how extreme would be our actions to stop it?
Is the certainty of death worse than a targeted threat?
