In a tense game of chicken, remarkable for its mix of petulance and audacity, congressional Republicans are threatening to halt U.S. aid to Ukraineāguaranteeing a Russian breakthrough and possible victory in that warāunless Democrats help pass a bill that all but locks down Americaās Southern border.
If the impasse isnāt resolved by the end of next week, when Congress goes on recess until the new year, the Ukrainian army could run out of ammunition. President Joe Biden could resupply the arsenal from U.S. stockpiles without legislative approval, but the move would be temporary, and the signal sentāthat Ukraine, and by implication other allies, can no longer count on U.S. support in a pinchācould be a holiday cork-popper for Russian President Vladimir Putin and all of our other adversaries.

If your wife does exist sheās getting railed by the mailman.
Youāre right about the multitasking. Thanks for caring about my wellbeing. Reciprocally, if youāre having to do math to make me look bad, Iām not your problem.
Iām sorry you find math so laborious, however I donāt have to do math to make you look any certain way when you do so well on your own. Iām just setting the stage for you

Nothing is compelling you to tell someone you donāt like them; you are making that choice yourself. Just breathe. Itāll be okay.

š Buddy, I find you delightfully entertaining, your lack of perspective and inability to self reflect are amazing. I stand in awe.
I saw the Boy and the Heron today. I thought the pacing was off and it lacked the light-heartedness and general levity in a lot of Miyazakiās previous works. It was good, but not great.
Spirited Away is amazing and one of the best films Iāve ever seen.
